About Greenstar Recycling

Greenstar is the largest residential recycler in Passaic County in Northern New Jersey. The company is located 12 miles from the port of Newark, NJ (second largest export terminal for waste paper and plastics in the U.S.) with three million people living within 25 miles. Family owned since 1924, the business has a long and well-respected history with strong local relationships with municipalities, haulers, exporters and direct commercial accounts.

Greenstar operates a dual-stream recycle sorting facility processing waste paper, old corrugated cardboard, bottles and cans at its site in Paterson, servicing the city, county and private solid waste haulers. We have a history of innovation in the industry being the first to install high density balers and automated commingled sorting systems. It will also be the first company in the area to offer single stream recycling.
