Federal Waste Recycling - Dallas
2441 West Commerce Street , Dallas, Texas, United States

Founded in 1914 as a rag and scrap paper sorting operation in St. Louis, we expanded into the national brokerage business in the 1940′s. By the 1950′s, Federal was helping some of the nation’s largest printers market their recyclables. During those years, we were known as a company where honesty and integrity always came first.

During the 1960′s, Federal became a leader in the foam trading, recycling, and manufacturing businesses. Over the next 20 years, we built companies in England, Holland, Belgium, Denmark, Puerto Rico, Nigeria, Uganda, Italy, Canada, and the United States. Today our foam division still owns plants throughout the U.S. and Europe and remains the leading marketing company of scrap foam for recycling.

By 1980, Federal’s Recycling division grew to become the premier waste paper marketing company for printers, box shops, grocery distribution, and convertors. We also acquired recycling plants and helped others build plants by providing equipment and material marketing.We have over 95 years of exceptional service, great prices, and intgrity in everything we do.

Waste Diversion / Recycling:

Federal International provides customized recycling programs to meet any company’s needs.  Our daily goal is to divert more than 90 percent of our customers’ waste away from landfills and always look to recycle the remainder.

We firmly believe in the Four Rs:

• Reduce: solid waste service fees
• Recover: recyclables in the workplace
• Responsible: environmental stewardship
• Recycle: at every opportunity

Materials We Recycle

Federal International works diligently to provide the best and final use for all recyclable commodities.  Our recycling efforts turn waste back into consumer products.  We turn:

• paper into tissue
• styrofoam into building materials
• plastics into lumber and carpet
• metal into reusable metal
• electronics into valuable commodities

We go above and beyond to find reliable end users for material that comes in through our facility.  We even recycle glass into utility bedding instead of that material going to the landfill.The process is simple – no matter how the material comes to us we work to source, separate it, process it, and ship it to a mill to be made back into a product.  This process of recycling is good for the environment and puts people to work.  We look to be “green” one customer at a time.

Recycle Bins / Containers

Federal International provides standard 96 gallon containers for our commercial recycling customers that come standard with;  handles, lid, kick plate, and rubber wheels.  Additionally, green tote bins can be provided for all recycling materials as well as gray shred bins for document destruction with paper slot and HASP lock that will stay locked until shredded.

We’ll swap out all bins and replace with empties based on a standard schedule. We provide the recycling bins upon account activation.  All we ask is that you please remove all food waste and non-recyclable materials and trash.We can also provide pallets and cardboard boxes for bulk recycling needs upon request as well as compactors, balers and over-the-road trailers.

Single Stream Recycling

Federal International provides cost effective and quality-driven programs for several grades of recyclable materials including; paper, plastic, metal and glass. Recyclables are sorted, cleaned, crushed or shredded and processed into large bales for shipment to local and international recycling markets.Single stream recycling programs eliminate the need for residents to sort their recyclable materials – all can be mixed in one large bin for curbside recycling collection. Single stream recycling programs decrease the cost of collection and increase the convenience of recycling, typically resulting in increased volume and environmental impact recycling rates.

Simplify your waste and recycling, lower your overhead, and achieve your sustainability goals with Waste Remedies, a Federal International company. We specialize in managing the waste and recycling services for companies like yours with our hands-on expertise and proven formula for success.

Our program includes:

• REDUCING your local waste hauling costs: Is your hauler giving you competitive pricing? We call local haulers to find out. Even with a contract in place, we are able to leverage most haulers into lowering rates based on the actual costs of servicing your account.
• AUDITING your monthly waste invoices: Extra charges and rate increases often slip into monthly invoices. We audit all your waste and recycling-related invoices each month and question every fee to guarantee your servicers are honoring your contract.
• VERIFYING you’re not being over-serviced: Don’t pay to haul air to the landfill. We adjust container size and service levels to maximize the value of each haul you’re paying for.
• FOCUSING on diversion: We analyze your waste stream to discover what can be recycled. Then we work with your team to set up processes to divert those items with minimum effect on your daily operations.
