REACH RECYCLE
Starting 2012 REACH recognized the need for a secure shredding services, and was able purchase equipment to provide those services for the Klamath Basin. Since then we have built up our system to be able to include in the recycling of cardboard, white paper, plastics, household metals, redeemable cans and bottles.
In 2019, with the help of Klamath County Waste Management, and the Klamath community, REACH was able to purchase a recycle sort line. Utilizing the sort line we can separate the materials into their respected groups and bale them for sale to wholesalers and other processing facilities.
As we expand we are looking for more efficient ways to process recycling while providing more work opportunities to the community. We are proud to be able to contribute to the recycling efforts of the City of Klamath Falls, as well as Klamath County, and hope to soon get back to where we were with our efforts pre-Covid.

Secured Shred
Have important and personal documents that need to be securely destroyed?
We utilize locked recycle bins to protect your documents until it comes time to securely shred them. (Usually within a week for smaller amounts!) We currently have six shredders that will eat through staples and paperclips, so no worries on removing them before you bring them to us.
If you have large amounts of documents in need of secured shredding and no means of transport. Call us to possibly set up a pick up from our recycle truck.
We offer secure shredding at $0.49/Lbs with a $5.00 Minimum if below 10.29Lbs.
If you would like to watch you secured documents be shredded please call (541) 882-8803 and Jamie will gladly set up an appointment for you.
