The acquisition of the non-hazardous solid waste, organic waste and recycling collection provider will build upon existing operations for the company within the central and southern New Jersey area.

Since 2016, the Trenton-based recycling company has collaborated with Bausch + Lomb, which reports that its programs have recycled a total of 48,235,850 million units, or 290,145 pounds, of used contact lenses, eye care and lens care materials.

In honor of #SubaruLovestheEarth month, the Camden-headquartered automaker announced the recycling milestone, which it achieved through its partnership with fellow Jersey company TerraCycle.

The proposed legislation, which cleared both houses of the Legislature this week, would create more rigid requirements for glass and plastic containers, paper and plastic bags, and plastic trash bags. It also bans the sale of polystyrene loose fill packaging, also known as packing peanuts.

The target is a collection of companies providing pallets, packaging, logistics services and landscape mulch throughout New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Maryland.

Wonder Curl is teaming up with cleantech startup Cleanhub, which connects sustainable brands with collection partners on the ground that ensure waste gets recycled.

Consumers can send in all empty plastic tubes from the frozen treats to to be recycled for free using a prepaid shipping label.
