Get Involved

Revenue generated by material sales meet one third of our
operating expenses. Volunteers and support from our individual and business
partners are essential to maintain our quality recycling services and to
expand our current educational programs.

Since 1970, Ecology Action has been recognized as a pioneer

in Central Texas recycling, and has been instrumental in leading

the Austin community in effective and innovative environmental

programs. This dedicated organization should be commended for its

outstanding work.

--- Former Austin Mayor   Kirk Watson.

    always going out of date. Can you check some for us? Or
  • are you a web designer who can help with our web page, or
  • a mechanic who can help with our vehicles.
  • a commercial electrician
