Cash is hiding in your office. Do you know where to find it?
If your business is not recycling, you may be throwing away untapped business revenue every day. Materials you no longer need are probably taking up valuable floor and storage space, too. A commercial recycling company can take your office recyclables and scrap materials off your hands—and pay you for them.
Recycling works on both sides of your budget. Every load you sell brings in money, and every load you keep out of the dumpster lowers what you pay to haul trash away. That is why more Dallas-area companies treat commercial recycling as a revenue line, not a chore.
| Yes—most offices throw away paper, cardboard and metal that a recycling company will pay for. Texas Recycling in Dallas weighs and grades your recyclables, pays you market value and offers scheduled pickups for qualifying businesses, so you earn revenue and cut disposal costs at the same time. |
What High-Volume Items in Your Office Can Be Recycled for Revenue?
Paper Recycling
Paper of all kinds and conditions has value. The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency estimates that the typical U.S. office worker still goes through about 10,000 sheets of paper a year. Every one of those sheets can be recycled instead of trashed.
Texas Recycling buys much more than used copy paper. Our paper recycling plant also takes outdated stationery, newspapers and inserts, marketing pieces, junk mail, magazines and old office files and records.
“…nearly 70 percent of that paper ends up in the trash.”
Cardboard Recycling
Cardboard is the most cost-efficient type of box for shipping. However, with the amount of volume many companies ship out and bring in for inventory or orders, it can also clutter your storeroom. You can reduce cardboard clutter in your business and help the environment by recycling those cardboard boxes. Selling a large inventory of old boxes to a recycling center can also bring in business revenue. This is as easy as routinely loading your cardboard onto a company truck. Haul the cardboard to a local recycling center, like Texas Recycling in Dallas, Texas. Turn in the cardboard and receive a check. Repeat this process regularly to keep your warehouse clear and money flowing in from cardboard recycling.

Scrap Metal Recycling
Take a walk through your workroom, break room, supply room and warehouse. Aluminum and tin cans, broken appliances, old metal shelving, wiring and outdated equipment all contain metal with resale value. Bring aluminum and tin cans to our Public Buy-Back Center. For everything else, Texas Recycling’s metal recycling plant works through commercial and industrial accounts and buys ferrous and nonferrous metals, including aluminum, copper, brass, stainless steel and lead, along with computer components such as CPUs and hard drives. For other office equipment, here is how to recycle electronics the right way.
“…Americans throw away some $800 million worth of aluminum each year, creating a massive loss to the economy and the environment.”
What Else Could Be Hiding in Your Storage Space?
Your supply yard, storage units or back rooms might hold even more material that can become business revenue:
- Scrap metal of all kinds, including aluminum, copper, brass, stainless steel, lead and others
- Baled and loose cardboard
- Obsolete inventory or damaged goods
- Boxes of old files and records you no longer need to keep
When Is the Best Time to Recycle for Revenue?
Sometimes a company needs to clear out much more than a few pallets of material. These are perfect opportunities to recycle and turn a cleanup into extra revenue:
- Office clean-outs—when you move to a new location, downsize or close a business
- Warehouse clean-ups—when obsolete materials and packaging start stacking up
- Records purges—when outdated documents take up far too much space. For confidential files, our on-site sister company, Action Shred of Texas, provides NAID-certified document destruction with on-site or off-site shredding.

How Do You Turn Your Business Recyclables Into Cash?
Are you ready to transform your company’s high-volume recyclables into revenue? A DFW recycling facility like Texas Recycling makes it simple:
- Bring it to our Public Buy-Back Center. Load up your vehicle and head to Texas Recycling at 1420 S. Barry Ave., Dallas 75223, about one mile east of Fair Park and three miles east of downtown Dallas. Our friendly staff will help unload your materials in our covered drop-off area, weigh them to determine market value and pay you. The Buy-Back Center buys paper, cardboard and aluminum and tin cans. Other scrap metal is not accepted there, so ask about a commercial account instead (see step 3). Please check our current hours or call 214-357-0262 before you head over.
- Ask about a clean-out pickup. If you have too much material to bring over in your own vehicle, we can send trucks and personnel to help with an office or warehouse clean-out. Availability depends on the type and amount of material, its location and how easy it is to load, so call 214-357-0262 with details to see if you qualify.
- Set up an ongoing program. For steady volume we will build a custom program with the right collection containers and a pickup schedule that fits your business. It all starts with a quick call about what you have, how much and how often.
