Q. How much waste is recycled in Florida annually?
A. In 2009 Floridians diverted 11,831,482 tons or 38 percent of municipal solid waste from the landfill through recycling. A complete breakdown of Florida's solid waste management can be viewed in the Solid Waste Annual Reports. There you will find a breakdown of Florida's solid waste and recycling information.
We assist in the development of markets for recyclable materials with the mission to achieve a 75 percent recycling rate by 2020. We can provide assistance to recycling businesses at all levels of the supply chain, as well as potential partners, the Legislature and the public.
