Industry Commitment & Associations We at E.L. Harvey & Sons, Inc. are committed to being a key player in our industry. We have the expertise to help implement a strong successful waste reduction program. Recycling is an integral part of the handling and reduction of a company’s waste stream. Our staff meets regularly with both federal and state officials to offer testimony and expertise regarding the laws and regulations that govern recycling and waste handling. Members of our organization have been involved with the actual writing of the Massachusetts Solid Waste Plan and the associated regulations, and we are constantly updated on new rules and regulations. While we do not always agree with the decisions made by our officials, we do believe it is in our best interest and that of our customers’ to keep communications open with the many governmental agencies. Our company enjoys good working relations with mills and paper dealers throughout the world. Because we operate our own transfer station and paper packing facility here in Westborough, it is important that we remain in daily contact with all markets. We pledge to offer our customers the benefit of our knowledge and experience in all matters relating to their waste-handling program. In today’s challenging environment, E.L. Harvey & Sons has made this a priority.

The Institute provides education, advocacy, and compliance training, and promotes public awareness of the value and importance of recycling to the production of the world’s goods and services. The Massachusetts Recycling Coalition MassRecycle, founded in 1989, was organized in response to a need for statewide advocacy to establish recycling programs. Its founders and early members recognized that widespread recycling would help to conserve natural resources, energy, landfill space and open space. More recently, recycling has been recognized as an essential component of any comprehensive strategy to reduce greenhouse emissions. The economic benefits of recycling have become evident by the over 60,000 recycling jobs calling for unskilled laborers to engineers, and the estimated $600 million that recycling contributes to the Massachusetts economy.
