How We Sort Loads
- Usability Check: We inspect furniture, household goods, appliances, and other items for condition, cleanliness, safety, and remaining useful life. Items that meet local partner guidelines are set aside for reuse or donation whenever a suitable organization is available.
- Material Separation: Recoverable materials are separated into practical recycling streams such as metal, electronics, cardboard, and select appliances. We keep incompatible or contaminated materials apart so recycling facilities can process accepted items safely and efficiently.
- Responsible Disposal: Materials that cannot be reused, donated, or recycled are routed to appropriate licensed disposal facilities. We follow facility rules and local requirements to handle the remaining waste responsibly rather than making unsupported diversion claims.
