Paper Retriever
Schools, places of worship, and other community groups can raise money by hosting a Paper Retriever bin in their parking lot where the public can drop-off household and business paper for recycling. The Paper Retriever Program is the world's largest newsprint recycler and newsprint producer. Paper Retriever started this collection program to obtain the paper they need to make new recycled paper. The program is available in many U.S. cities.
Look for these green and yellow bins in your neighborhood and recycle magazines, catalogs, junk mail, newspapers, and other household paper including phone books and cardboard. To host a Paper Retriever bin, contact representative Denise Piotrowski at (216) 961-3900.
