Collectors play a vital role in the sustainable reverse logistics supply chain, receiving and logging products, parts, and materials from consumers. Collectors often conduct rural collection events, making it possible for consumers, schools, and businesses to participate in recycling. Collectors also play a vital role in tracking the origin of contributions and passing this information for downstream reporting. Producer responsibility legislation often contains rewards to manufacturers for rural collections and tax credits may apply for donations that result in downstream charitable contributions. As stewards of the environment, collectors manage vital information and relationships in our communities.
