History

Established in 1994.

We are the oldest non-​profit recycling center in the Bay Area, operating two centers — one in Berkeley; and the other at our headquarters in Marin County, in Bel Marin Keys.

At one point, we were the largest ecollector in the State. We have regrouped in the last ten years, and are in the midst of a new expansion.

We have been offering free technical training on Thursday nights in our Marin location since 2009.
