Springfield Materials Recycling
Facility TOUR
Learn more about recycling in western Massachusetts by visiting the
Springfield MRF. The tour begins with an educational video about
recycling, waste reduction, and how recyclables move through the
facility. Then there is a walk-through component where you will
view the sorting process, material baling, and truck weighing. We
also talk about what the recyclables are remanufactured into after they
leave the MRF and how we can “get in the loop” and buy recycled
products to keep recycling sustainable.
