Springfield
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.

Address & Directions

Instructions:
Not all parts of the tour are handicap accessible.
Tour is one hour.
