EcoShip diverts hard-to-recycle packaging materials from landfills and provides them to small business owners and individuals throughout Chicago. In just 1.5 years, we have saved 19,000 mailers and 976 bags of other packaging from being thrown out. Instead, these items were given to 250 individuals for reuse. On average, EcoShip can save someone $50-300 every month. We partner with local businesses and other nonprofit organizations to create a community that works together in solving environmental issues. EcoShip also educates individuals about the recycling and waste system in Illinois as well as throughout the United States. In the past, we have partnered with Patagonia, SailGP, Maine South High School, and Evanston Township High School.
