Landfill Diversion & Recycling for Logistics Warehouses

What we handle for logistics warehouses

• Stranded or refused consumer goods (intact packaging)

• Near-date or short-dated foods and ingredients (sealed)

• Unopened chemicals in original drums/IBCs (safe handling required)

• Corrugated boxes, gaylords, paper cores

• Pallets, totes, trays, supersacks, fiber drums

• Stretch film, shrink wrap, bubble, mailers, dunnage

• Mixed lots from returns and overstock

How it works

1. Tell us what you have (material, rough volumes, pickup location).

2. Share a few photos (labels/seals visible where applicable).

3. Get a plan + price: donation/resale, recycling, or certified destruction.

4. We handle pickup (nationwide; rail for high-volume lanes).

5. You get proof: diversion receipts + a simple monthly summary.

Volumes and timing

Best freight economics at ~20,000 lb (full truckload) • One-time or recurring pickups • Rush options when capacity allows.

Brand protection for consumer goods

• Controlled destruction with documentation (when required)

• Label/mark removal where applicable

• Donation to approved groups (with your OK)

• No gray market

Logistics made easy

• Nationwide coverage; dock or floor-loaded

• Standard vans, flatbeds, box trucks; drop trailers on request

• Railcar options for high-volume lanes

• Clear site instructions for drivers to keep your floor moving

Quick example

“A logistics warehouse had a customer cancel delivery of a truckload of popcorn kernels. They came to Waste Optima with their stranded inventory problem and within 7 days we had a PO in hand to purchase the entire lot, generating revenue for the logistics company and freeing up valuable rack space.”
