OUR MISSION
Make recycling the default, not the exception
RecyclePal was founded in Omaha in 2009 with one idea: make recycling easy enough that apartment residents would actually do it. Fifteen years later we serve 80+ communities and divert 24 tons from landfill every single month.
We focus on multifamily because that's where the impact is highest and the gap between intent and action is widest. Every community we add to our route is another step toward a cleaner Omaha.
"A local Omaha service partner — not a faceless national vendor."
