CES has had a variety of partners over the last 30 years. Many of our partners have utilized our services for a number of diverse projects, ranging from sustainability outreach to waste sorts.
Ongoing Partnerships
Waste Minimization Team (WMT)

Single Family Can-Weight Study (SFW)
Helping the City of Portland to monitor trends in waste generation
SFW collects data for the City which ensures that residents have equitable access to services,
and sufficient profits are generated to perpetuate business for haulers.
Portland Multi Family (PMF)

PMF supports multifamily tenants and managers to increase
knowledge and participation of recycling in multifamily
complexes.
Past Partnerships
Portland Event Recycling (PER)
