One out of every two aluminum containers is lost to landfill or incineration in the US today, so
and
have teamed up with
to create a new circularity infrastructure.
Our goal is to recover six-million pounds of aluminum over the next 12 months within the state of Florida. This program will reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 27,442.89 MTCO2e (that's equivalent to 3,457 homes' energy use for one year), prevent pollution and landfill waste, and re-invest in local economies.
This program enables Proud Source and Ball Corporation to continuously source their materials directly from their customers and those who participate as host locations. Communities can build circularity infrastructure, track collected materials in real-time and benefit from commodity earnings.
We'll give you free super sacks to store your aluminum (and any other material you choose). All you need is a bit of space.
Once you're ready, get it picked up and see where it goes in just a few taps.
Use the material value to cover the cost of pickup and keep or donate any extra. Share your impact with customers, and know you're doing your part to help end landfills.
Not ready to become a host? Take your aluminum to a nearby host to ensure Proud Source gets it back and you can track your impact.
We provide everything you need to keep materials out of the landfill (for free), including super sacks to store material and a mobile app to schedule pickups, track earnings, and monitor the impact you're making.

Today only 25% of products in the US are actually recycled. The average recycle rate for aluminum cans in the United States is approximately 43%.
In the state of Florida, with one of the highest consumption rates of aluminum cans, the recycle rate for aluminum is just 25%. Focusing on the state of Florida will immediately improve recovery rates and provide communities with access to next-gen circularity infrastructure. Increasing Florida’s aluminum recycling rate to 90% would offer significant economic, social, and climate benefits:

Yes, you'll be expected to ensure materials are sorted by type into the provided super sacks. Each material type goes to a unique processing facility for reuse, so its critical to keep separated throughout the entire process to ensure quality.
We cannot guarantee this will reduce your existing waste bill, but in many cases, by collecting more materials and providing customers/staff with a convenient option, less material is put in your dumpster which can lower your overall costs.
It's free. In fact, you are paid for any materials you collect based on a per pound rate.
We aim to have super sacks delivered to you within 3 days of joining! You can get started collecting immediately. Some locations choose to build racks/hooks to better organize their sacks.
