Buy-Back Centers
Rumpke Recycling offers instant cash for many recyclables at our buy-back centers in Dayton, Circleville and Ironton, Ohio.
The Recycle Challenge
Rumpke Recycling and Busch Gardens Sea World partners with Greater Cincinnati and Greater Columbus schools and organizations to raise more funding through recycling. It’s called The Recycle Challenge, and your organization may qualify.
The Recycle Challenge invites schools and community organizations to collect aluminum cans for additional funding. Students, faculty and families can contribute to a recycling container located on school or organization property. Rumpke Recycling collects the cans and pays your organization according to the volumes collected. Schools can earn up to $3,000 annually.
Greater Cincinnati schools, please contact Anne Gray at (513) 242-4600, ext. 7164, or anne.gray@rumpke.com.
Greater Columbus schools, please call 1-888-786-7531 or e-mail centralohio.market@rumpke.com.
The Recycle Rally
This program invites Montgomery County, Ohio schools and organizations to raise funds by collecting recyclables and delivering them to Rumpke Recycling’s Dayton, Ohio Recycling Buy Back Center. Rumpke Recycling and the Montgomery County Solid Waste Management District keep a record of each participant’s recyclable totals. Participants receive checks for their materials based on current market values for recyclables. Prizes are awarded annually to the organizations with the greatest amounts of recyclables collected. For more information, please call the Montgomery County Solid Waste Management District at (937) 496-6798.
