Savannah, Georgia
Commercial Recycling in Savannah, GA
Savannah moves the East Coast's imports. The Port of Savannah's Garden City Terminal is the largest single container terminal in America, and the region holds the East Coast's biggest cluster of retail import distribution centers. Every container that lands here arrives packed in corrugated and stacked on pallets. CRI services Savannah accounts with the same single-point-of-contact relationship our direct-fleet customers get.
Built for the Port of Savannah
Savannah's economy starts at the dock. Garden City Terminal is the largest single container terminal in America and one of the fastest-growing, moving millions of containers a year with Mason Mega Rail handling intermodal right on the terminal. The I-95 and I-16 corridor through Pooler, Effingham County, and Bryan County has filled with the largest concentration of retail import distribution centers on the East Coast.
Every one of those containers gets stripped down somewhere. The import and transload DCs across the Pooler and I-16 corridor generate high-volume OCC, stretch film, and pallets at a pace tied directly to port throughput. Nearby manufacturing, including the new EV assembly plant in Bryan County and Savannah's aerospace producers, adds crating, packaging, and scrap metal. Clean cardboard graded right is rebate revenue, not a disposal cost.
CRI services Savannah through our vetted partner network. The customer relationship runs end to end with CRI: one team, one invoice, one point of contact.
