RockTenn Opens New Recycling Facility

NORCROSS, Ga.—RockTenn announced the opening of a new single-stream recycling facility in Memphis, Tenn., expanding the company’s recycling capabilities and increasing its presence and service capabilities.

The new 150,000 square-foot facility will complement RockTenn’s established single-stream recycling plants in Chattanooga and Knoxville. The automated, single-stream system allows designated recyclable materials to be fully commingled during collection instead of separated into different bins, a process that offers significant benefits to homes and businesses.
