International Paper has been reported to be getting ready to close its Wichita, KS recycling center.
The company recently said that it will close the facility to streamline operations. At this stage, it is unclear how many employees will be affected by the closure. As an additional result, the city of Wellington Recycling Center will be closed until further notice.
“We understand that the suspension of the recycling program will affect both residents and businesses who are trying to reduce the amount of waste sent to landfills,” the City of Wellington. “City staff are actively seeking a new partner to process recyclables following International Paper’s exit from the regional market.”
