Making Responsible Recycling Accessible to Every Business
We believe every business — regardless of size, industry, or location — should have access to certified, transparent, and affordable recycling services. Our mission is to eliminate the complexity of commercial recycling by connecting businesses with a nationwide network of vetted, certified processors who handle everything from pickup to compliance documentation.
We measure our success not in revenue, but in tons diverted from landfills, compliance certificates issued, and the sustainability goals we help our clients achieve. Since 2005, that has meant over 500,000 tons diverted, a 92% material recovery rate, and a zero-landfill commitment across our certified network.
Why I Started Recycling Quotes
Gareth Amon is the Founder and CEO of Recycling Quotes, a national business recycling consulting and procurement company dedicated to helping organizations reduce waste and improve sustainability.
Gareth's entrepreneurial journey began in 2005 while pursuing a Ph.D. in Economics. During graduate school, he founded a metal and electronics recycling company, discovering a passion for building businesses and creating practical environmental solutions. To dedicate more time to entrepreneurship, he completed a Master's degree in Economics and transitioned his full focus to growing his companies.
After selling the metal scrap division of his business in San Diego, California, Gareth focused on RecyclingQuotes.com, with the vision of making commercial recycling services more accessible to businesses across the United States.
Over the past two decades, Gareth has helped thousands of businesses responsibly recycle millions of pounds of materials, including electronics, metals, paper, plastics, pallets, textiles, and other commercial waste streams. His work has helped companies improve operational efficiency while reducing their environmental impact.
As Recycling Quotes continues to grow, Gareth has expanded his mission beyond recycling. He is increasingly involved in environmental advocacy, working alongside organizations and conservation groups dedicated to protecting wildlife, preserving old-growth forests, restoring native plant ecosystems, and safeguarding marine life. His long-term vision is to combine entrepreneurship, technology, and environmental stewardship to create lasting positive change for both businesses and the planet.
