  • 5 Ways to Celebrate Global Recycling Day

    Global Recycling Day is a global event celebrated annually on March 18th. As a residential and commercial recycling company, BVR is dedicated to promoting sustainable practices that help preserve the environment. Here are five ways you can celebrate Global Recycling Day and contribute to a greener future: Educate Yourself and Your Community Global Recycling Day is an excellent opportunity to educate yourself and your community about the importance of recycling. Take some time to learn about the materials that can be recycled and how to properly dispose of them. Share this information with your friends, family, and neighbors to raise awareness and encourage them to take action. Our BVR blog and the blog of our parent company, BIG, are great resources for this. Host a Recycling Drive for Your Neighborhood Organize a recycling drive in your neighborhood or community. BVR is happy to lease large scale roll-off dumpsters for your next clean out. Collect recyclable materials like paper, cardboard, plastic, and metal to fill up your roll off rental. You can also encourage others to participate by promoting the event on social media, putting up flyers, or contacting local schools and organizations. Reduce Your Waste Reduce the amount of waste you produce by making simple changes in your daily routine. Use reusable bags and water bottles, buy products with minimal packaging, and compost your food waste. Small actions can make a big difference in reducing the amount of waste that ends up in landfills. Upcycle or Repurpose Items Instead of throwing away old items, upcycle or repurpose them. Old furniture, clothes, and electronics can be transformed into something new and useful. Get creative and find new ways to use old items, or donate them to a local charity or secondhand store. Again, our blog is a great resource for guidance on this. We suggest reading THIS, and THIS. Support Recycling Initiatives Support local recycling initiatives and organizations that promote sustainable practices. By supporting these initiatives, you can help create a cleaner, healthier environment for future generations. We’re proud to be the local recycling service in the greater Brazos Valley area.

  • The Ultimate Guide to Renting a Roll-Off Dumpster in College Station

    Are you looking for roll-off dumpsters in College Station? Look no further! This comprehensive guide will walk you through everything you need to know about roll-off dumpsters in your area. We've got you covered from construction dumpsters to regular dumpster rental services. Roll-off dumpsters have become essential to any construction, renovation, or cleanout project. They provide a convenient and efficient way to manage waste and debris. If you're in College Station, Texas, and need a roll-off dumpster, you'll find a variety of options to suit your needs. Why Use Roll-Off Dumpsters? The primary benefit of using roll-off dumpsters in College Station is convenience. When you're working on a construction site or undertaking a large-scale cleanup, you want to keep your space as tidy and clutter-free as possible. Roll-off dumpsters allow you to collect and dispose of waste materials efficiently, keeping your work environment clean and safe. Another advantage of using roll-off dumpsters is their versatility. They come in various sizes, making them suitable for a wide range of projects, from small home renovations to large-scale construction jobs. Choosing the right size will help you manage your waste more effectively, ensuring that you don't pay for more dumpster space than you need. How to Choose the Right Roll-Off Dumpster for Your Project When searching for roll-off dumpsters near me, it's essential to consider the size of the container you'll need for your project. Roll-off dumpsters in College Station typically come in four primary sizes: 1. 14-yard dumpsters are perfect for small-scale projects like garage cleanouts or minor landscaping work. They can hold up to 14 cubic yards of debris, which is equivalent to about three pickup truck loads. 2. 20-yard dumpsters: Ideal for medium-sized projects, such as home renovations or small construction jobs, these dumpsters can hold up to 20 cubic yards of debris – equivalent to six pickup truck loads. 3. 30-yard dumpsters: Suitable for larger construction projects, these containers can hold up to 30 cubic yards of waste – roughly nine pickup truck loads. 4. 40-yard dumpsters: These are the largest roll-off dumpsters available, perfect for significant construction jobs or large-scale cleanouts. They can accommodate up to 40 cubic yards of debris – equivalent to about 12 pickup truck loads. Before deciding on a size, consider the type and amount of waste your project will generate. For example, if you're working on a construction site, you may need a larger container to handle materials like concrete, wood, and metal. If you need help determining which size is best for your project, consult with one of our experts for guidance. If you're searching for construction dumpsters near me, keep the following tips in mind: Plan ahead: It's essential to plan your dumpster rental in advance to ensure you have the right size and type of container when you need it. Contact us to discuss your project's specifics and secure a suitable roll-off dumpster. Choose the right location: Select a spot on your property that's easily accessible for the delivery truck and has a firm, level surface. Be aware of any overhead obstacles, such as power lines or tree branches, that could pose a risk during delivery or pickup. Be mindful of weight limits: Roll-off dumpsters have weight limits based on their size. Overloading a container can result in additional fees or even damage to the dumpster or your property. Be sure to stay within the weight limit for your chosen container Know what you can and cannot dispose of: While roll-off dumpsters are versatile, there are some materials you cannot throw away. Hazardous materials like batteries, tires, asbestos, chemicals and many appliances are excluded. Finding the right roll-off dumpster in College Station is easier than ever before with BVR Waste and Recycling. Click here to see our wide selection of roll-off dumpsters and book yours today!

  • Proper Disposal of Lithium-Ion Batteries

    As technology continues to evolve, so does our dependence on lithium-ion batteries. These batteries are found in a wide range of electronic devices, from smartphones and laptops to electric vehicles and power grids. However, with the increasing demand for these batteries comes a growing concern for their proper disposal. At BVR Waste & Recycling, we don’t handle the disposal of lithium-ion batteries. However, improper disposal of these batteries can lead to risk such as fire hazards and severe environmental impact. Although we don’t accept these items, we want to discuss the importance of properly recycling them. So what are lithium-ion batteries? Lithium-ion batteries are rechargeable batteries that store energy chemically in lithium-ions. They are widely used in portable electronic devices and systems, electric vehicles, and stationary energy storage systems. Compared to other types of batteries, lithium-ion batteries have a high energy density, a longer lifespan, and can be recharged hundreds of times before they start to degrade. The risks of improper disposal: When lithium-ion batteries are improperly disposed of, they can end up in landfills where the toxic materials can leak into the soil and groundwater, leading to pollution and potential health risks. Lithium, cobalt, and nickel, which are common materials found in these batteries, are toxic and flammable. Improper disposal can also lead to explosive fires, as the chemicals in the batteries can react with each other. The benefits of proper recycling: Recycling lithium-ion batteries helps to recover valuable materials and reduce the demand for new raw materials, reducing the environmental impact of mining and manufacturing. Recycling also helps to conserve resources and energy, as recycling materials uses less energy than producing new ones. Furthermore, recycling batteries keeps toxic materials out of landfills and reduces the risk of fires and explosions caused by battery chemicals. Properly recycling lithium-ion batteries is essential for protecting human health and the environment. Even though we do not accept ion batteries at BVR, there are still options available for safe and responsible disposal. By recycling batteries, we can reduce waste, conserve resources, and promote sustainable practices. We have a responsibility to recycle our batteries responsibly, and to encourage others to do the same. Contact our waste and recycling experts today to inquire about the proper disposal of ion-lithium batteries in your area.
