Now there is an outlet for recycling your old vinyl siding!

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with WHISPERING PINES REALTY 20398180

Plastic Recovery Technologies...REMEMBER THAT NAME !!  Located in Wyoming Minnesota, they are the only place in Minnesota that recycles vinyl siding. 

This firm worked for over 5 years developing the technology to do this great service.  They will bring out a dumpster  for a small fee, and come and get it when you are done. 

This is a MONEY SAVER!!!  Take your old siding to the land fill and you pay a steep price.

Plastic Recovery Technologies.  651-895-9024   Call them for more information.

This is one of the best recycling programs I have heard of in years!!!!!

After a grinding process, it is sold to a secondary industrial market.  I am going to try and find out some of the uses.

Sounds great, especially if they will come and pick it up.  Hope it gains more popularity.

Maybe some of that siding ends-up as shiny new real estate signs!  I hope that more of these facilities will pop-up throughout the country.

Sounds like a great service to me my friend. Save money and do something more useful than just throwing away the old siding.
