Atlanta, Georgia
Commercial Recycling in Atlanta, GA
Atlanta is the Southeast's distribution capital. Hartsfield-Jackson anchors global air cargo, Interstates 20, 75, 85, and 285 move freight in every direction, and nearly 300 million square feet of warehouse space makes it the sixth-largest distribution market in the country. All of it runs on corrugated and pallets. CRI services Atlanta accounts with the same single-point-of-contact relationship our direct-fleet customers get.
Built for the Southeast's Distribution Capital
Atlanta is where the Southeast's freight converges. Hartsfield-Jackson is one of the world's busiest cargo airports, Interstates 20, 75, 85, and the 285 perimeter tie the metro together, and Norfolk Southern and CSX intermodal terminals link the city straight to the Port of Savannah. With close to 300 million square feet of warehouse space, metro Atlanta is the sixth-largest distribution market in the country.
The volume lives in the distribution belts. DCs and third-party logistics operators along the I-85 northeast corridor through Gwinnett, the South Atlanta and Henry County submarkets at McDonough and Locust Grove, and the long-running Fulton Industrial Boulevard corridor run high-volume OCC, stretch film, and pallets. Food and beverage and advanced manufacturing add packaging and scrap metal. Clean cardboard graded right is rebate revenue, not a disposal cost.
CRI services Atlanta through our vetted partner network. The customer relationship runs end to end with CRI: one team, one invoice, one point of contact.
