metroSTOR product systems influence how people respond to waste and recycling initiatives; reducing inequity at the point of generation and making it as easier for everyone to increase the diversion of eligible waste from garbage, for reuse, recycling or composting.
Our partnerships deliver consistent waste and recycling infrastructure for city authorities, developers, corporate campuses, and universities, from multifamily residential, street corridor and public spaces, to convenience centres, everywhere from dense urban cities to isolated rural communities.
metroSTOR 5C methodology considers specific elements of capacity, convenience, communication, consistency and cleanliness to deliver containerization solutions that address waste diversion and contamination targets alongside the provision of genuine qualitative improvements in the local community.

We’re therefore thrilled to be working with NYCHA on a waste containerization project that will help create a cleaner environment for residents while making it easier for them to separate their recyclables at source and place them in the correct containers, conveniently located near their residence.
The metroSTOR recycling stations currently at NYCHA’s Wagner Houses are durable and remain tidy one year following the installation. NYCHA residents have positively embraced the new system, stating the containers are much cleaner and more attractive than the previous system.Louisa Denison
