Greene Recycling provides cardboard recycling in Washington for businesses that want cardboard bales picked up on a schedule they can count on. Our trucks run routes in 24 Washington cities today, from Everett down to Olympia and on to Vancouver. We’ve done this since 1995, we serve more than 500 business locations, and Washington is one of our 13 route states.
Ferries, bridges, and I-5 traffic all shape how a route works here. We plan around them so your pickup shows up when it should.
North of Seattle, routes run in Everett, Lynnwood, Mukilteo, Marysville, Lake Stevens, and Woodinville. South of the city, we pick up in Renton, Burien, Covington, Federal Way, Tacoma, Lakewood, Puyallup, and Edgewood. On the Kitsap Peninsula and nearby, we serve Bremerton, Silverdale, Port Orchard, Gig Harbor, and Bainbridge Island. Farther out, routes run in Port Angeles and Sequim on the Olympic Peninsula, Olympia and Tumwater at the south end of Puget Sound, and Vancouver in southwest Washington.
Not on the list? We still offer cardboard recycling in Washington anywhere in the state, including Seattle, Spokane, and the Tri-Cities. Greene Recycling services businesses in all 50 states. Visit our areas served page or call 512-630-5108.

As a recycling broker, Greene Recycling sells baled cardboard into the recycling market. For qualifying volumes, our brokerage program may return part of your cardboard’s value as a rebate. A chain with stores in Tacoma, Everett, and Olympia gets one point of contact for every site.
That’s why cardboard recycling in Washington works best as a steady routine, not a scramble. You free up back-room space and keep boxes out of the landfill. Learn more on our Recycling Brokerage page.
We serve single-location shops and national brands, including Walgreens and Crate & Barrel. Every customer gets the same team and the same direct line.
Corrugated boxes are among the most recycled packaging materials in the U.S., according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Bales sent to a mill become new packaging, and they stay out of the landfill.
Many Washington companies set waste goals and get asked about them. Regular cardboard recycling in Washington gives you a monthly bale count you can report with confidence.
Getting a truck to Port Angeles or Bainbridge Island takes more planning than a stop off I-5. Some haulers skip those towns or add fees. We build them into our routes, so a store in Sequim gets the same dependable pickup schedule as one in Renton. Reliable cardboard recycling in Washington shouldn’t depend on which side of the water you’re on.
For holiday freight and other busy stretches, flexible scheduling lets us build the route around your schedule.
First, we go over your locations, baler, and bale volume. Second, we add you to a route and confirm pickup days. Third, the truck starts hauling on your scheduled day. Adding a store later is one call. Our FAQ page answers common questions. Setting up cardboard recycling in Washington with us won’t change how your team runs the stockroom.
Your crew bales cardboard as freight comes off the truck and stacks the finished bales at the dock or another agreed spot. On your scheduled day, our driver loads them and logs the count. That record gives you a clear number for reports. You don’t have to sort, call ahead, or hold a window open. If your bales come out loose or your baler can’t keep up, we can help you pick a better-sized machine or swap out an undersized one.
Stores close together, like Lynnwood and Mukilteo or Tacoma and Lakewood, often share a route day. Full trucks and tight schedules keep cardboard recycling in Washington affordable for a single shop and a regional chain alike. When your volume changes, we adjust the schedule, so you aren’t paying for stops you don’t need. Most customers settle into a steady rhythm within the first month.
