Los Angeles, California
Commercial Recycling in Los Angeles, CA
Los Angeles is the country's freight engine. The Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach form the largest container complex in the US, moving close to 40 percent of the nation's containerized imports, and the industrial core around Vernon and Commerce is one of the densest in the country. All of it runs on corrugated and pallets. CRI services Los Angeles accounts with the same single-point-of-contact relationship our direct-fleet customers get.
Built for the Ports and the Industrial Core
Los Angeles moves more containers than anywhere else in the country. The Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach together handle roughly 17 million containers a year and close to 40 percent of US containerized imports, LAX adds millions of tons of air cargo, and the I-710, I-5, and I-110 corridors carry the trucks inland from the harbor.
The volume fills the industrial core. Vernon, the City of Commerce, and the City of Industry are among the most intensely industrial cities in the country, packed with warehousing, food processing, cold storage, apparel, and light manufacturing that run high-volume OCC, stretch film, pallets, and ferrous and non-ferrous metal. Clean cardboard graded right is rebate revenue, not a disposal cost.
CRI services Los Angeles through our vetted partner network. The customer relationship runs end to end with CRI: one team, one invoice, one point of contact.

Los Angeles Recycling, Common Questions
We import and transload through the LA and Long Beach ports. Can CRI handle our OCC, film, and pallets at volume?
Yes. We size spotted trailers and compactors to your transload throughput, take the high-volume OCC and stretch film off the containers, and buy, repair, and return pallets. Every load is weighed on state-certified scales and clean fiber ships mill-direct for rebate value.
Can our cardboard and paper earn rebates, not just lower our disposal bill?
Yes. Graded and shipped mill-direct against live commodity markets, your OCC and paper come back as rebate revenue. The free assessment shows what your Los Angeles streams are worth.
We juggle three or four vendors for recycling and trash. Can CRI replace that?
Yes. CRI handles every stream your Los Angeles facility produces, OCC and paper, film, pallets, and metal, on one agreement with one invoice and one number to call. No more chasing a different vendor for each material.
