CARING for the environment and the community is at the core of Future Recycling. Dubbed, “the best scrap yard in Shepparton,” Future Recycling is proud to pour its success back into the local economy.
FUTURE Recycling is Shepparton’s leading ferrous and non-ferrous metal recycling business, providing scrap metal and resource recovery services, including solar panel recycling, from its local depot at 121-135 Old Dookie Road.
Ongoing business success and growth has meant the company has upped both its local sponsorships and advertising spend – averaging $17k a month advertising across print, radio and TV.
“No questions asked that we have to run the business as profitable as we can, but we try to put back into the community as much as we can,” said Shepparton branch manager, Daniel Thewma. “We are a community driven business that employs local people and engages local businesses and groups in every application.”
In addition to using local businesses including Kreskas Bros to transport containers to the wharf, they employ local people (many of whom are in the same family!), including new sales representative, Staffan Nordbye.
While growing its customer base of businesses and seeking to expand into surrounding areas like Yarrawonga and Echuca, Future Recycling has seen a significant uplift small customers.
“This is a rise in domestic customers coming to our weighbridge to recycle scrap metal and steel,” explained Daniel. “This is great because it supports us and means the customer gets paid for their scrap.”
“People are becoming more savvy about waste and diverting trash from landfill. People are also keen to earn extra money by bringing their scrap waste and getting paid for recycling. In most cases the service is free, and they can trust their scrap metal will be recycled correctly.”
