Abstract
Recycling is a green growth industry in South Carolina. The 2006 economic impact study completed by economists Frank Hefner and Calvin Blackwell at the College of Charleston marked the industry’s impact at $6.5 billion. This can be
attributed to the more than 300 recycling companies in the state which include haulers, processors, recycled product
manufacturers and equipment makers.
