The Perfect Storm

Some call the current markets for scrap paper the “perfect storm”. The calm before what could amount to rapidly rising cardboard and other grades early next year. Actually, things have been a little quiet for months. We have gone out of our way to create alternative markets for all of the materials being offered to us, keeping them out of land fills. Alternative markets don’t necessarily follow conventional supply and demand markets, so the opportunity to increase our business and reduce customers hauling and land fill costs are great.

Our sister company, Industrialbags.com is trying to increase their volumes for supplying industrial and commercial plastic bags, lumber wrap and various films. We prefer to work only with domestic suppliers and manufacturers so we have to be quite creative to offset foreign pricing, which always seems a little lower, as is their quality.

Give us the opportunity of working with you on marketing any difficult to market item(s), complete destruction of any materials or supplying most poly bags and wraps.
