  1. Green Fiber Division &Waste Stream Management • OCC • Paper • Plastic • Wood • Metal

  2. Green Fiber Program • We recycle the following products: • OCC (Loose, Baled or Palletized) • Paper (All grades, mixed loads ok, baled or palletized) • Plastic Pallets / Top frames (wood or plastic) • Stretch wrap or shrink wrap (baled only) • Broken / Odd-size pallets

  3. Waste Stream Management • PCE will help you remove ALL of your unusable products. • We will be your one stop recycle shop! • With our closed loop pallet management program, we can repair and return you pallets to you, and pay you for the ones that can’t be fixed. • Put all of your paper, plastics, oddsize/broken pallets, and other recyclables on one truck!

  4. OCC • Old Corrugated Cardboard • Can be baled or palletized • Baled with 4 steel wires per bale, each tagged with shipper name and address • Average 45-50 bales, minimum 800lb per bale • Minimum 20 tons (40,000 lbs.) per truckload • Maximum 22 tons (44,000 lbs.) per truckload • No medical or bio-hazard material • Mill scale official weight or 3rd party scale required • No pallets in load • Must have appropriate moisture content, be corrugated (made of multiple layers to improve product strength), and have a low level of filler (generally <3%). • No more than 10% wet load • OCC not meeting these requirements may still be purchased as scrap cardboard, normally for 10-20% of OCC rate.

  5. Examples of filler • Waxed cartons or papers • Plastics of any kind • Styrofoam • Wood in any form • Metals except bale ties holding bales together • Carbon papers • All non-paper items • Asphalt coated cartoons • Carrier Stock and wet strength papers • Food waste in excess amounts may be cause for rejection • Whole cores • Roll-wrap headers and end caps (header stock with glue or poly)

  9. Bad OCC – Moisture Content Too High

  10. Not OCC – Not Corrugated This is Brown Grade Paper

  11. Not OCC – Too Much Filler This is actually Kraft Paper

  12. Kraft Paper • Scrap pieces cut from virgin Kraft sheets • Baled with 4 steel wires like OCC bales • 100% Virgin Kraft unless otherwise agreed upon • Different thicknesses are OK • 3 pictures MUST be taken and emailed to us • Bolt seal MUST be used • Bolt Seals will be supplied by PCE unless directed otherwise • Minimum 20 tons (40,000 lbs.) per load unless directed otherwise • Maximum 22 tons (44,000 lbs.) per load unless directed otherwise • Prohibitives & Outthrowsless than 1% • No medical waste or bio-hazard material • Less than 5% wet load • MUST be on Heat Treated pallets or Plastic pallets • Can be exported overseas • Kraft Paper may also be palletized

  20. International Recycling • Pallet Central Enterprises has recently acquired an AQSIQ (The General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine) license, which allows us to buy and sell recyclables directly in China, with permission from the Chinese government. • We can fill a 20 or 40 foot container for international shipping. • Lower grade, non corrugated (a.k.a. “brown”) paper is in high demand.
