Business & Industrial Services
Republic Services offers customizable commercial recycling programs to businesses, non-profit organizations, churches, schools, and multi-family complexes (apartments, condominiums) in all the municipalities we serve. Republic Services will meet with interested commercial businesses and organizations to perform a free waste consultation and to develop a specific recycling program. Here are just a few of the things that we will help you consider and implement:
- Space: We work with you to identify a practical location where recyclables can be collected.
- Access: We help you find the appropriate place outside the building where Republic Services collection trucks can easily pick up the bins, carts, or dumpsters.
- Materials: We will assess the types of materials and the quantities that you would like to recycle.
- Commitment: We help educate and engage company management, facility staff, and employees to create a successful recycling program.
Service Options:
Republic Services offers the following collection options to meet your organization's specific recycling needs.
Wheeled Carts (95 gallons)
Business recycling is simple! Similar to residential recycling, cardboard, mixed paper, newspaper and magazines, tin cans, aluminum cans, and rigid plastics labeled #1 or #2 can all be recycled in a single recycling cart. Wheeled carts are a great option for businesses that do not generate a lot of waste. Businesses can have up to five carts, depending on their recycling needs. Recycling carts are collected once a week.
Green Dumpsters (3 - 8 cubic yards)
These containers are best suited for larger companies who want to recycle mixed paper, corrugated cardboard, aluminum, tin, and plastic.
Roll-Off Boxes (20, 30, or 40 cubic yards)
These containers are best suited for construction and demolition sites. Since about one-third of the waste destined for landfills comes from construction and demolition debris, cities are increasingly looking to contractors to take a pro-active role in diverting waste from landfills. Republic Services can tailor a job-site recycling program to fit your needs. For the purpose of recycling, Republic Services requires single commodities be assigned to specific containers. Also since Republic Services records all transactions involving a project, paperwork and compliance are effortless on the part of either the developer or the contractor. Learn more about how Republic Services can help your building project become LEED compliant.

Special & Household Hazardous Waste
Do not throw hazardous waste in with your garbage. Hazardous materials may be properly disposed of, FREE OF CHARGE, each Fall at a one-day event hosted in Mountain Home. Call the Mountain Home Parks and Recreation office at 208-587-2112 for the date, time, and location details.
Examples of HHW materials include solvents, pesticides/herbicides, paint/stain/varnish, batteries, automotive products (including gasoline and oil), yard/garden products, fluorescent light tubes, and anti-freeze.
Prohibited HHW materials include explosives, ammunition, radioactive items, and biomedical waste (i.e. sharps).
LEED Certification
In the United States and in a number of other countries around the world, LEED certification is the recognized standard for measuring building sustainability. Achieving LEED certification is the best way for you to demonstrate that your building project is truly "green."
The LEED green building rating system - developed and administered by the
LEED certification, which includes a rigorous third-party commissioning process, offers compelling proof to you, your clients, your peers, and the public at large that you've achieved your environmental goals and your building is performing as designed. Getting certified allows you to take advantage of a growing number of state and local government incentives, and can help boost press interest in your project.
Talk to Your Sub-Contractors - Let them know this is a LEED Project
As obvious as this sounds, construction workers on the ground often do not know what their managers know - that this is a LEED project! Talk to them. Share your goals about LEED certification. Is your target to recycle 50% to 90%? Tell them what you will be recycling and where the recycling containers will be located.
Label Your Containers
Another obvious point, but necessary. Create BIG signs for all of your recycling containers: WOOD, PAPER & CARDBOARD, SHEETROCK, etc. Draw pictures or laminate downloaded clip art and attach the graphics on the containers under the label (i.e. a picture of a woodpile or a picture of a plastic water bottle). This eliminates any language barrier confusion and is a quick reminder as workers approach the trash and recycling areas.
Strategically Locate Your Trash & Recycling Containers
Make recycling convenient, make trash tough. By placing recycling containers closest to the worksite and trash dumpsters next to the supervisor's trailer or apart from the work site you create an incentive to recycle and a deterrent from trashing everything. This strategy allows supervisors to see what is being thrown away and there is a high degree of accountability when co-workers can watch each other fill the recycling bins.
Use "On-Call" Trash and Recycling Service
Make sure you sign up for an "on-call" trash and recycling service. This allows you to have your dumpsters and recycling bins emptied only when they are full. If you call the Republic Services office by 5:00 p.m. your containers will be scheduled for next day service.
Take Pictures
Take digital pictures of your containers when they are full (before they are emptied). Upload and date the photos in a "LEED TRASH" or "LEED RECYCLING" folder. This will help you keep track of the number of yards you are throwing away or recycling at your project site.
Keep Your Trash and Recycling Bills
Keep all landfill tickets (indicating weight or volume) recycling center receipts (tons recycled) and trash/recycling invoices from the hauler or city. All serve as critical records and will help you reconcile the volume you post in your pictures with the volumes recorded on paper.
- Carpet and Pad: Second Chance Building Materials Center 208-331-2707 will take carpet if it is re-usable.
- Wood waste: Republic Services Roll-Off Box (20, 30, or 40-yards). All wood products (including crates) can be mixed together but must be free of metals except for staples, nails, and screws. Wood waste is diverted from the landfill where it is chipped and reused. Container delivery, container rent, and recycling haul charges apply.
- Cardboard/paper/plastic: These materials can be collected in a "single-stream" green commercial container (3, 6, or 8 cubic yards [insert link for "Dumpsters"]) or in a large roll-off box (20, 30, or 40 cubic yards). Roll-off boxes used for recycling have container delivery, rent, and hauling charges, but no additional disposal fee.
- Metal: Call United Metal or Pacific Recycling to set up a metal container.
- Electrical Conduit: If metal, recycle with metals.
- Piping: Metal piping may be placed in the metal recycling box, but plastic piping must be placed in the trash.
- Ceiling tiles: GTS Interior Supply, 1675 Commerce Ave, Boise, ID 83713, 208-343-4998, will take back Armstrong ceiling tiles.
- Roofing: Wooden shingles (shake) can be thrown in with the wood waste.
If you are reconstructing an existing building in the Treasure Valley, facilities such as the Habitat for Humanity store and Second Chance Building Materials will consider taking your reusable building materials.
These materials can NOT be recycled in Mountain Home at this time.
- Insulation
- Asphalt and other types of shingles
- Sheetrock
