About Recycling Services Inc.

We are the largest privately held paper recycling company in Illinois, committed to designing, implementing and servicing recycling programs tailored to your company’s needs. Our company was born in the minds of two men who wanted to use recycling as a tool to create jobs and improve the quality of the local environment. We started operating a recycling center on a vacant lot and today we are Chicago’s one-stop-shop for all your recycling needs. We specialize in waste paper recycling, yet we offer a wide array of services to meet demands in the marketplace. These services include everything from our innovative Total Office^TM Recycling program to our Commercial, Drop off and Brokerage services.

The Recycling Services Advantage:

We support local commerce

“We employ 70 people now,” notes Michael Finn, President of Recycling Services. “A lot of them are from this neighborhood. Some are immigrants and some have saved to buy homes and establish lives here. It’s something I think we can be proud of, and it also keeps us motivated to make sure the business is here for the long term. We are proud of our past and look forward to continuing the good work we do every day.”

We promote sustainability

We promote sustainability. Through our unique partnership with SCA the paper we recycle is used to close the loop, benefiting the environment, our economy and our customers. This program demonstrates our commitment to working with our partners to offer our customers the most innovative and sustainable recycling programs in the market.

We always recycle

We always recycle. In order to provide long term markets for the material we recycle we have partnered with and structured long term contracts with companies who guarantee to always buy our material, regardless of the market conditions.
