Springfield MA Materials Recycling Facility

The Springfield Materials Recycling Facility Advisory Board (MAB), a recycling organization in Western Massachusetts, exists to promote recycling and to advise the Department of Environmental Protection and the Materials Recycling Facility about enhancing and sustaining recycling in the region. We are inspired by a concern for our environmental future and we strive to communicate the importance of recycling.

The Western Massachusetts Regional Recycling Program serves over 70 communities in the four western counties of the state. The cornerstone of the program is the Springfield Materials Recycling Facility (MRF). It accepts recyclable materials from participating communities at no charge. The MRF was started as a state program to promote recycling by making it readily accessible to the communities of western Massachusetts.
