Modern Recycling: Tour WM’s Salt Lake MRF

After Waste Management trucks collect mixed recycling from across Salt Lake City, they’re taken to the Materials Recovery Facility, or MRF for short. These multi-million dollar facilities sort and bale paper, cardboard, metals and plastic to be shipped off to customers who repurpose these into new products. Join us on a tour of the facility and see how recyclables are sorted to be ready for shipping.
