A Night to Celebrate Sustainability
The MassRecycle Fall Social is an important event in the recycling and sustainability industry, bringing together professionals, businesses, and environmental advocates dedicated to reducing waste and promoting recycling initiatives across the state.

This year, CMRK was recognized for developing and operating an outstanding recycling and waste reduction program that has increased recycling rates and reduced waste across our operations. The Business Award is presented to a traditional business that has shown exceptional dedication to sustainable practices, and we are proud to be acknowledged for our efforts in this critical area.
