A monumental achievement.
Did you know that Styrofoam will soon contribute 25% of all material sent to landfills? Styrofoam is difficult and costly to recycle. It is a significant part of the packaging for new appliances and last year our TRUST program reduced 3,686,400 cubic feet of Styrofoam to under 500,000 cubic feet of densified polystyrene that was cost effectively shipped for re-use by plastics manufacturers throughout the world.
That is enough Styrofoam to make a full scale model of the White House and two Washington Monument.

TRUST® is Nova Services branded recycling process for home delivery operations directly managed by retailers, third party warehouse and delivery companies and public utilities and municipalities.
At the center of TRUST® is environmentally responsible appliance recycling but we aren’t just scrap metal guys. We look at the entire waste stream of large haul-away delivery processes and figure out a way to achieve 95-98% recycle rates for all non-food waste. It is like the single stream curbside recycling we have at our homes… on a much larger scale. We call it mega-stream recycling.
Last year Nova Services recycled 49,000,000 cubic feet of waste and plan on reaching 100,000,000 in 2011. We focus on appliances and the related packaging waste but can offer integrated solutions for operations dealing with electronics, mattresses and pallets as well.
