When you're looking at a $20 billion industry ... you'll want to spend your advertising dollars wisely.  Resource Recycling is your best buy.

Nearly 10,000 American local governments (cities, boroughs, towns and villages) provide recycling collection, serving more than 140 million residents.  And to process these materials, nearly 500 sorting plants operate in the U.S.

About 5,000 communities offer yard debris recovery systems, and nearly 10,000 firms collect solid waste and recyclables.

More than 2,000 scrap metal yards operate in the U.S., about 1,750 firms process recovered paper, nearly 400 firms handle recyclable plastics and some 600 companies process scrap wood.

Each year, the U.S. collects for recycling nearly two-thirds of aluminum cans, about 60 percent of steel cans, and nearly half of the paper generated.

In Resource Recycling, you get low advertising rates and high impact.

With the highest paid circulation of any audited, independent magazine in the field, your ad reaches motivated readers who make decisions.

A new online presence for today's economy!

Resource Recycling's latest survey of Internet usage among recycling and composting professionals found that 92% are not online.   And 90% of those online use the Internet specifically to find equipment and technology information.

Add your logo to our Web site, and put your company on the computer screen of thousands of recycling and composting professionals each month.

How it works.   Clicking on your logo takes visitors to your company's exclusive Web page within our site.  Here, they see a description of your company, photos, and full contact information, including links to your company's e-mail and Web site.  Not only can visitors easily and quickly locate your company's home page, but we also provide a convenient online form to request more information.

All this for only $975 per year.   Contact Rick at (440) 257-6453 or rick@resource-recycling.com for more information.

GENERAL POLICIES

Agency commission:  Advertisers and their advertising agencies are jointly responsible for payment of all insertions.  Recognized agencies are allowed 15 percent on space reservations and color only, based on supplying digital material and provided the account is paid within 30 days.

Payment terms:  Net 30 days.  Past due accounts will be billed 1.5 percent interest per month.  Five percent discount for pre-payment is allowed.  Production charges are not included in the advertising rates.  Resource Recycling reserves the right to require payment in advance from advertisers who previously have not made payments on time.  For the Professional Services, Showcases and Classified advertising sections, payment in advance is required.

Short rates and rebates:  If, within a 12-month period from the date of first insertion, advertisers do not use the number of insertions on which their billings have been based, the rate applicable for the amount of space actually placed will apply retroactive to the first insertion.  Advertisers will receive a rebate if they have used sufficient additional insertions to warrant a lower rate.

Cancellations:  No cancellations accepted after the closing deadline; advertiser must pay full charges for the space.

Publisher's copy protection and disclaimer clause:  Advertisers and advertising agencies assume liability for all content of advertisements printed and also assume responsibility for any claims or expense arising therefrom made against the publisher.  No discriminatory advertising is accepted.  Advertisements may not simulate the publication's format.  Furthermore, the publisher may place the word "advertisement" on copy that could appear to be editorial matter.  The publisher reserves the right to reject advertising not in keeping with the publication's standards.  The publisher is not liable for delays in delivery and/or nondelivery in the event of any condition beyond the control of the publisher that affects production or delivery in any manner.

ABOUT YOUR READER SERVICE LEADS
Our circulation staff collect inquiries from readers requesting information about your products or services.  These are generated in a number of ways.  Readers may enter your specific reader service number that appears below your display ad in Resource Recycling magazine.  You may also receive leads from those choosing the general category in which you fall (e.g., balers).  Finally, visitors to our Web site also have the opportunity to request either from your specific company or one of the general categories.  Online, this request form is found in our Equipment Info Central section.  To receive leads from the general categories, you must be advertising in the current issue of Resource Recycling. 

For more information about reader service leads, contact Rick Downing at (440) 257-6453 or rick@resource-recycling.com.  If you have a question about leads that you've already received from a recent ad in Resource Recycling, contact Mary Lynch in our circulation department.  She may be reached at (503) 233-1305 or by e-mail to mary@resource-recycling.com.
