Welcome

---

We want to offer something not currently being done in our area - glass recycling and eco-friendly sand. This small step keeps glass out of the landfill and allows it to have a new purpose as sand. Glass does not break down naturally - even if you waited one million years. It can be broken into smaller pieces of course, but not broke down. 

Find us on Instagram @earthmagicrecycling 

Welcome!  Thank you for being patient as we grow.

The next glass drop-off event has been moved to June 10th at our location. I apologize for the short notice! You are making a difference. 

We are so grateful that you are spreading the word about us! With your help, we have broken several records in May!

Daily record for glass - 1887lbs of glass in one day!
Monthly record - with more than 6800lbs in May!
AND we have already gotten more in 5 months than all of 2022! 23,900lbs!!

BUT Wait there is more!!!

In addition to breaking our daily, monthly and yearly total glass records in May, EarthMagic had a Live Interview on WFXR with Amanda Kenny! 

Rockbridge Conservation Council awarded us the Caught Green-Handed Award!

The College Glass Recycling Pilot Program has had a successful start.

EarthMagic was awarded two grants, one for SEO assistance from SERCAP and one for QuickBooks support and training from the SBDC!

It will be available in multiple colors and package sizes. Our sand products are 100% post-consumer recycled products. 

Sandbags can now be ordered through email and picked up at our location.  We have 50lb sandbags, individual or by the 1ton pallet, canopy bags in sets of four (80lbs for the 4 bags) to weight down your pop-tents and canopies, and 50lb tube sandbags for diverting water. Reach out for a quote today! Our sand can be used for everything from crafts to construction projects! Selling our sandbag products help us continue accepting glass recycling at no charge. 

Thank you, Buena Vista!  We are excited! We were approved to place two of our barrels on Magnolia Avenue in the parking area between Buena Vista Family Dentistry and Coiner Country Store. (BUT someone took our sign. We want it back, please!)

Thank you, Clifton Forge!  The pilot program was successful and now we are getting regular deliveries.   Our barrels are in the Clifton Forge Public Works Area. Please try to keep this area neat. 

Thank you, Lexington! Our containers at the Lexington Public Works Recycle Center are bringing more than 500lbs of glass each week.  Please help us keep this area clean and do not put trash in the barrels. For larger amounts of glass, please contact us to schedule a drop-off time at our Buena Vista location or bring it to a scheduled glass drop-off event.

Some people have mentioned that GPS does not show true directions to our location. As you turn onto West 21st street, please go across the railroad tracks, through the gate to the new Virginia Innovation Collective building. Continue in front of the building and around to the corner of the building to find EarthMagic Recycling!

We have such strong support from so many friends, businesses, groups, family and members of the community. Thank you so much! We could not do this without you.

EarthMagic Recycling started as a dream in 2018.  Together we think the sky is the limit!  We are excited to see what comes next! 

The 8th Annual Gauntlet Business Program and Competition was held in Spring 2022. The Awards Ceremony was held in Vinton, VA.  EarthMagic Recycling LLC placed in the top 10 of the Platinum Category.  One of the highest awards!!  Such support from The Advancement Foundation, localities, other businesses, mentors and sponsors - it was a huge opportunity for us!
