Hamilton operations produce significant volumes of post-industrial plastic alongside their core output, from packaging film and strapping to rigid containers and rejected parts. We collect that material in gaylords, super sacks, and bales, then grind or pelletize it so it re-enters a supply chain rather than a landfill, and certified secured destruction is available whenever branded or defective product needs to be retired.
We recycle PET, HDPE, LDPE, PVC, PP, and PS, including production film, purge, trim, and off-spec parts. Tipping fees only go one direction. Rebates on clean plastic scrap pull the cost curve the other way, and our documented programs move Hamilton sites toward 100% landfill diversion with the reporting your customers and auditors expect.

We serve the whole Hamilton industrial belt: the Bayfront and harbour industrial lands, Red Hill Business Park, the Stoney Creek strip along the QEW, Ancaster Business Park, and the life-sciences cluster around McMaster Innovation Park, plus Dundas, Burlington, and Grimsby. Routes run along the QEW and Highway 403, with processing in Ajax and pelletizing under an hour away in Simcoe.
If "Hamilton recycling" brought you here looking for curbside bins or drop-off depots, household collection now runs under Ontario's producer-funded Blue Box program administered by Circular Materials. That system covers households only; businesses arrange their own recycling, and that documented commercial side is what we do. Target Recycling handles plants, processors, and warehouses with plastic by the skid or truckload, across Hamilton, Stoney Creek, Ancaster, Dundas, Burlington, and Grimsby. We audit what you produce, divert what has value, and document all of it.
Gaylords, super sacks, compactors, or bins, placed where your lines actually produce scrap, with scheduled pickups that match your production cadence. One vendor, one point of contact, one audit trail. Explore plastic recycling solutions, secured destruction, or toll grinding and pelletizing.
