Eco is a mission-driven, nonprofit social enterprise that is dedicated to spreading Zero Waste solutions in Boulder County and beyond. With expertise in resource conservation, Eco-Cycle has become one of the oldest mission-based recyclers and Zero Waste organizations in the US. Their commitment to the environment is evident through their range of services and facilities.

Eco operates the Boulder County Recycling Center, providing a convenient and efficient way for residents to recycle. Additionally, they offer Zero Waste business services, helping organizations implement sustainable practices. The innovative Center for Hard-to-Recycle Materials (CHaRM) is another initiative by Eco, providing a solution for items that are not accepted in regular recycling.

As a nonprofit social enterprise, Eco reinvests its earned revenue into community programs, including the award-winning Green Star Schools program and the Community Carbon Farming program. They also offer resources such as a recycling helpline and an A-Z Recycling Guide. With a network of over 1,000 volunteers, Eco promotes Zero Waste policies at the local, state, and national levels.

Eco's impact programs focus on three major solutions to reduce consumption emissions. They address the urgent need to reduce plastics, promote composting and carbon farming to reverse climate change, and work towards implementing recycling and composting infrastructure and policies throughout Colorado. With a rich history and a dedicated team, Eco is committed to creating sustainable and resilient communities through their Zero Waste initiatives
