Reduce Waste with RENEW!
Oklahoma is now a
member of the Resource Exchange for Eliminating Waste (RENEW).
This tool is designed to allow business, industrial or
manufacturing facilities to exchange materials that would
otherwise be discarded. Facilities that post materials can
avoid disposal costs, and possibly reduce their regulatory
burden. Searching available materials helps you find items for
your facility at a reduced cost, often free. Clickhere
for the Oklahoma Materials Exchange on RENEW.
