State of Texas Alliance for Recycling (STAR)

ADVANCING RECYCLING IN TEXAS

OUR MISSION

is to advance recycling through partnerships, education, and advocacy for the benefit of Texas.

WHAT WE DO

With the backing of multiple recycling corporations and businesses, STAR serves as the voice of the Texas recycling industry, as well as a partner with local governments and municipalities helping to reduce contamination, collaborate with staff for effective outreach, and developing local recycling markets.

We work to educate Texans about the economic and environmental benefits of recycling in Texas and help professionals grow through networking, webinars, and our support for TRUE Advisor certification.

STAR advocates for the recycling industry by hosting stakeholder workshops, regional meetings, and through legislative measures.
