FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Epsom, NH – The New Hampshire-based recycling nonprofit Northeast Resource Recovery Association’s (NRRA) Recycling Conference & Expo highlights new, engaging, and current recycling and solid waste management topics and practices that help transfer stations, recycling centers, and municipalities manage their recycling facilities in environmentally and economically sound ways. For over 40 years, the Recycling Conference has been the premier annual event focused exclusively on municipal recycling and waste reduction in New England.

Held at the Grappone Conference Center in Concord, NH on Monday, May 19 and Tuesday, May 20, hundreds of attendees will come together from across the recycling and waste management industry, including leaders and decision-makers from municipal recycling centers and transfer stations; state, city, and town governments; volunteer organizations; and business and industry.

Clear, consistent recycling education is the most effective way to increase recycling participation. The Recycling Conference is the kick-off event of NRRA's Recycle Right North Country campaign, bringing focused recycling education to the North Country of NH. The Monday keynote address and discussion will highlight the importance of recycling education, as well as on-the-ground resources. On Tuesday, the keynote brings together three recycling vendors to share the ins and outs of three distinct recycling streams - metal, textiles, and freon - including the challenges each recycling stream faces and a look into the crystal ball as to what the future may hold in these uncertain times. NRRA will also be making a special announcement on Tuesday - we cannot wait to share more!

The conference agenda features engaging workshops, including:

  • NH's Rechargeable Battery Disposal Ban
  • Mattress Recycling
  • Landfill Operations in the 21st Century
  • Multi-unit Recycling
  • Used Oil Management and Grants
  • Plus, four operator roundtables!

Registration is now open. The conference will count toward NHDES continuing education credits for each hour attended and certificates of attendance will be awarded.

NRRA’s annual recycling conference is successful because of the dedication, commitment, and generosity of the businesses and organizations that participate as sponsors.  Sponsorship ensures high visibility and recognition among attendees. Please take a moment to thank our 2025 Conference Sponsors. If your organization would like to learn more about sponsoring, conference sponsorships are still available.
