Paving the Way for
Asphalt Shingle Recycling and Re-Use
   
     


Asphalt Shingle Collection
All recycling facilities, including shingle recycling facilities, must meet State notification and tracking requirements. Required forms and contact information can be found at the following website.

In addition, shingle collection and recycling facilities must contact their municipal and county environmental, fire, and/or public health departments to ensure that operations meet these guidelines.

How to Start A Shingle Collection and Recycling Facility

The establishment of successful shingle collection and processing facilities is essential to Colorado's recycling effort. As with all enterprises, there are important considerations to consider before starting such a facility.

The Best Practices Guide offers a comprehensive overview of environmental and practical issues. Please contact us for additional support in launching such a facility.
