Services
First Star Recycling was formed in 1997 with the mission to enhance the Nebraska's recycling infrastructure.
We started operations in the spring of 1998 in Fremont.
Surprised by our growth and to be closer to several new customers within Omaha, we relocated to a larger facility there in the fall of 1999.
Today First Recycling employs over 110 people at its Omaha and Lincoln recycling operations.
The company processes recyclables for businesses and communities throughout the Midwest and markets close to 100,000 tons annually to end users throughout the country and internationally.
First Star Recycling is proud to provide residential recycling services to the City of Omaha, Lincoln and beyond.
It is estimated that the United States throws away over $11 billion worth of recyclable containers and packaging every year.
We make recycling as simple and convenient as possible as our material recovery facility utilizes a single stream process which allows you to put all recyclables in the same bin without sorting.
First Star Recycling is passionate about improving the rate of residential recycling services in Omaha and Lincoln.
