GOODWILL IS COMMITTED TO THE ENVIRONMENT
We strive to be a conscientious and environmentally aware partner in the community by recycling what we cannot sell, thus diverting tons of items from the landfill. Last year alone, Goodwill salvaged more than 10,000 tons, making us one of the largest recyclers in the region.
