Community Twine Recycling (CTR) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing education and specialized assistance to establish twine recycling programs across the nation. With support from local landfills, county governments, industry, local businesses, and national organizations we are seeking to make twine recycling available in all states.

🚛 We can help you to organize the collection, storage, and transportation of discarded twine so that it can be recycled into useful products.

👍 Get started creating a recycling program in your area.

🎁 Thank you for your kindness and generosity in support of our work.

Why Recycle?

Save on Landfill Fees

Much of the twine that is discarded after the use of hay bales ends up in a landfill. In some areas it accumulates on rural property or is burned. Landowners can save the money spent on roll-off fees or basic trash service by bringing this used twine to a local recycling program.

The Impact on Animals

Wildlife and livestock can ingest baling twine and become seriously ill or die. Twine poses an especially deadly strangling hazard to birds. Researchers have reported that baling twine is responsible for entangling and killing around ten percent of osprey chicks annually in some states.
