On Tuesday, Coca-Cola Recycling LLC opened a new consumer recycling center in Irving that accepts and processes aluminum cans and #1 PET plastic beverage bottles. Located in the Kroger shopping complex at 3612 North Belt Line Road, the new center was created to offer free and convenient access to beverage container recycling.
The Dallas-Fort Worth area was selected as the pilot market for the Reimagine recycling program, and the first Reimagine Beverage Containers recycling center was opened in Arlington last November. More than 2.3 million containers have been collected and recycled at centers in Arlington, Plano and Garland in less than a year, resulting in almost 100,000 pounds of material diverted from DFW-area landfills.
Kroger is the retail host for the Reimagine pilot program and plans are under way for additional placements, including a center planned to open in Little Elm next month.
