Recycling for 3PLs & Logistics Providers
Third-party logistics providers move enormous volumes of cardboard, plastic film, and pallets every day, across multiple client accounts and multiple docks. CRI builds multi-site recycling programs with consolidated reporting and one accountable point of contact, so you can show your customers measurable sustainability outcomes.
Built for High-Volume, Multi-Site Operations
A 3PL's waste profile changes with every client account. One dock is running high-volume OCC and stretch film, another is cycling pallets, a third is handling returns. The common thread is volume, and the cost of letting it pile up or routing it through a stack of separate haulers.
CRI consolidates all of it. We place the right equipment at each dock, schedule pickups around your shifts, and grade and ship every stream mill-direct so it comes back as revenue instead of a disposal line item. One team runs the whole program, across 45 states.
Materials We Handle
- OCC and corrugated cardboard
- Plastic film and stretch wrap
- Pallets, all sizes and grades
- Strapping and banding
- Mixed paper
One point of contact across every site
Whether you run five docks or fifty, you deal with one CRI team for communication, billing, scheduling, and escalations. No chasing a different vendor at each facility.
Consolidated reporting for your clients
Rolled-up tonnage and diversion data across all locations, so you can hand your customers the sustainability numbers they ask for in a single report.
Spotted trailers and compactors at every dock
Equipment sized to each site's volume, with pickups timed to your inbound and outbound flow so recycling never bottlenecks the dock.
Revenue back on every load
We grade and ship mill-direct, then pay rebates against current commodity markets. That revenue can pass straight through to your client accounts.

3PL & Logistics Recycling FAQ
Can CRI service all of our facilities under one agreement?
Yes. CRI runs multi-site programs under a single agreement with one point of contact, one invoice, and consolidated reporting. Whether we run the route with our own fleet or coordinate it through our vetted partner network, you deal with one company at every location across 45 states.
Do you provide the reporting our customers ask for?
Yes. We provide rolled-up tonnage, diversion, and rebate reporting across all of your sites, formatted so you can pass it directly to your client base for their sustainability and ESG disclosures.
How do you keep recycling from slowing down our docks?
We place spotted trailers and compactors sized to each dock's volume and schedule swaps and pickups around your receiving and shipping windows. The goal is recycling that runs in the background of your operation, not in the way of it.
What materials do you handle for 3PLs?
The high-volume logistics streams: OCC and corrugate, plastic film and stretch wrap, pallets of all grades, strapping and banding, and mixed paper. If a client account generates something unusual, we build it into the program.
