Great Falls, Montana
Commercial Recycling in Great Falls, MT
Great Falls is the trade hub of central Montana, sitting on the Missouri River at the heart of the Golden Triangle grain region. Value-added agriculture drives the local economy: Pasta Montana mills Montana durum into dry pasta, Montana Specialty Mills crushes canola and flax at the Agri-Tech Park, and grain, food, and oilseed processors ship out by truck and rail. I-15 and US 87 and 89 move freight, a BNSF rail yard works the city, and Malmstrom Air Force Base anchors a large local workforce. All of it runs on corrugated and pallets. CRI services Great Falls accounts with the same single-point-of-contact relationship our direct-fleet customers get.
Built for Central Montana
Great Falls turned its place in the Golden Triangle grain belt into a processing and distribution economy. Pasta Montana runs a durum pasta plant in the city, Montana Specialty Mills crushes and refines canola, flax, and oilseeds at the Great Falls Agri-Tech Park, and Montana Milling and other grain and food processors add value to Montana wheat, barley, and pulses. Freight moves on I-15, US 87, and US 89, through a BNSF rail yard, and out to markets across Montana, Alberta, and the western states, with Malmstrom Air Force Base and the Calumet refinery rounding out the industrial base.
The volume runs across grain milling, food and oilseed processing, distribution, and rail. The mills, processors, and warehouses run high-volume OCC, stretch film, and pallets, plus ferrous and non-ferrous scrap metal off production lines and equipment. Clean cardboard graded right is rebate revenue, not a disposal cost.
CRI services Great Falls through our vetted partner network. The customer relationship runs end to end with CRI: one team, one invoice, one point of contact.
