Grab some chicken wire, or an old trash can and start your collecting, Guam. The more we can recycle and keep items out of the landfill, the longer it will last. In addition to saving landfill space, recycling helps create jobs and make products out of things that would otherwise be trash. This guide is meant to help you recycle almost all types of waste you create.
Businesses listed below are companies that either have valid Solid Waste permits with Guam EPA, or are organized by community groups that use permitted facilities. For more information about these permits, click here.
