RECOVERY INFRASTRUCTURE: Cleaner Materials. Defensible Programs.
Cities, counties and program operators face:


metroSTOR delivers access-managed drop-off and recovery hubs that turn participation into predictable outcomes.
The City of Hailey is turning local challenges into an opportunity with a 24/7 community food waste drop-off program that makes composting simple and accessible for residents. Supported by funding from the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality, the city installed secure metroSTOR enclosures in key locations, allowing easy access by keypad or app and keeping food waste composting local within the valley. Since launching in late 2023, the program has expanded to five active sites with strong participation and minimal contamination, showcasing a flexible, low-maintenance model that’s inspiring other communities.


Cleaner, higher-value material streams

Lower processing and contamination costs

Defensible compliance with EPR and DRS

Infrastructure that scales with regulation

Most programs begin with grant-funded pilots, then scale as regulation and funding mature.
