We read everywhere about the importance of recycling and how it is our duty—an act of kindness for our planet and the environment.
We are certainly all in agreement. But ... (and there is always a but) in some cases – specifically the odd ones - to recycle, you need to think outside the box.

So we decided to tell you some unusual recycling stories that our customers sent us. In many cases, we were left speechless. In others, truly amazed. We hope you are too after reading their stories. And if you have bizarre stories, too, send them our way.

Gypsum

Imagine a massive chemical plant that is constantly trying to improve its carbon footprint. They had 200,000 cubic yards of nylon-contaminated gypsum. How did they separate the two? By installing an MB-S18 screening bucket on their Caterpillar 323 and voila. The gypsum was cleaned of all nylon residues. An out-of-the-ordinary but very effective method. See video.
