At Boro-Wide, we’re not just about bins and trucks—we’re about building a cleaner, friendlier city. Our mission is simple: provide a first-rate experience for our customers that makes our community a cleaner, greener space.
MRT BWR, Corp. represents a landmark collaboration between two longstanding New York City waste management companies: Mr. T Carting, Corp. (MRT) and Boro-Wide Recycling Corp (BWR). With a combined legacy stretching back to 1947, this partnership marks a significant step towards innovative and sustainable waste management solutions in the city.
MRT, originally founded in 1947, and BWR, established in 1956, bring decades of experience and a rich family history to this partnership. Their journey from small, family-run businesses to leaders in the NYC waste management sector is a testament to their enduring commitment and resilience.
MRT and BWR operate state-of-the-art waste collection fleets and manage several key facilities in NYC. BWR runs the Empire State Cardboard Paper Recycling Company in Maspeth, focusing on cardboard and paper. MRT operates Scholes Street Recycling in Brooklyn for metal, glass, and cardboard and Hi-Tech Resource Recovery, also in Brooklyn, newly transitioned into an Organics Recovery Facility, subject to city approval.
Hi-Tech Resource Recovery is poised to become a pioneering Organics Recovery Facility, showcasing our commitment to innovative waste solutions. This transformation aligns with our dedication to aggressive waste diversion goals and sustainable practices.
Our collaborative efforts have led to significant achievements in waste reduction. BWR’s partnership with the National Tennis Center, for instance, helped the US Open become a Zero-Waste event, earning the 2019 Environmental Leader Award. MRT’s long-standing food waste collection for composting further cements our role as trailblazers in waste management.
Both MRT and BWR embrace cutting-edge technology to enhance efficiency and customer service. From route optimization, multi-view cameras on trucks, to advanced Customer Resource Management systems, we are at the forefront of integrating technology in waste management.
Our commitment extends beyond waste management to active participation in community and regional organizations. We are deeply involved in initiatives that promote environmentally responsible waste practices, showcasing our dedication to the community’s well-being.
Adherence to Equal Employment principles and a harassment-free work environment is at the core of our operations. We promote equal employment opportunities by fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace culture that values and respects the unique contributions of every individual.
