Contaminated recycling doesn't just get tossed — it can shut down entire processing facilities. One contaminated load can cause a Material Recovery Facility to shut down for days while they clean out the sorting equipment.
Sortify exists because the average person wants to recycle correctly. They just don't have a reliable, instant way to know what's right. We fix that.
