Abingdon, VA -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/03/2015 -- The nation's leading service provider for household hazardous waste collection events and on-site hazardous waste disposal services, MXI Maumee Express, Inc. is proud to announce they have received the 2015 Green Giving Partner Award. The award was provided by Matthew 25: Ministries (M25) for MXI's commitment to the environment by reducing waste and repurposing excess product for humanitarian work.
Through the humanitarian efforts of M25, MXI recycles and reduces as much waste as possible. When collecting new materials and latex paint at events or pickups, MXI will direct the products to M25. The materials will then be sent overseas for humanitarian needs and infrastructure development.
"We are very proud to be working with Matthew 25 Ministries," said Operations Director Craig Potter. "They are a wonderful group of people who do a great thing for the world. We look forward to working with them for a long time."
Their commitment to the environment includes the recycling of latex paint, beer and alcohol, HHW and aerosol. Their crew has also assisted in cleanups of emergency spills, as well as disposal of drum and chemical waste and lab packing and consulting.
As one of the trusted hazardous waste disposal companies, MXI, Inc. has launched a virtual training system to provide training and refresher courses to all staff handling HHW collection events. All staff that are present at HHW events must complete the training program prior to the collection. The company is also requiring the courses to be completed for staff working on hazardous waste removal projects, chemical waste disposal projects, and environmental cleanup jobs.
