Mid America Paper Recycling provides recycling solutions for partners ranging from small businesses to large multinational corporations. Founded in 1926, the company is a fourth-generation independent broker, processor, and exporter of recovered paper in the Central United States. The paper waste we handle is either baled directly at the supply point, processed at our headquarters in Chicago or at one of our vendor partners.
Our waste handling processes are proven effective, and we work with our client partners to improve theirs. We've built excellent relationships throughout the industry, and strive to earn the highest price possible for recovered paper. We also utilize our own fleet and select freight partners to transport waste between suppliers, warehouses, and paper mills.

Services
Since 1926, our mission has been to add value by proactively educating, serving, and presenting a clear pathway for fiber recycling that lessens the use of natural resources, increases corporate and personal growth, reduces costs, and promotes safety. As a proud and independent family-owned company, we stand by our values every day.
Savvy managers know that sustainability goals can be met without compromising growth targets. But we find they often aren't aware how much more revenue they could be collecting from their paper waste. We design recycling solutions for client partners that align with their individual growth opportunities while also supporting the environment.
Cardboard boxes, cartons, and trays are an ever-present and growing fixture in many industries. They're essential for transporting products and materials, but often end up tossed aside once they've made it to the final destination. Cardboard waste piles up at many facilities, creating nuisances and safety hazards.
These days, plastic is as prevalent as paper. It can pile up fast in facilities and takes time to collect, which costs money. Plastic is a petroleum-based product, and when it ends up in a landfill, this depletes natural resources and holds back sustainability efforts. We'll work with you to find the best solutions for managing your plastic scrap more efficiently.
By auditing your recycling program, we can determine what you're doing right and where improvements are needed. We will also audit your scrap and waste, and use our deep industry connections to find buyers. We use the results of the waste audit to present you with a robust recycling plan, which will present the specific value of your waste streams.
