Asheville Waste Paper Company, located in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains near the French Broad River, has been a family-owned recycling plant since 1941. Founded by Carl McMahan, a former garbage truck driver who saw the potential in recycling cardboard and paper, the business has grown into the longest-standing family-owned recycling company in Asheville.
What began as a one-man operation collecting materials on the side of the road has evolved into a multi-state service provider, emphasizing honesty, integrity, and hard work. With a legacy spanning over 70 years, Asheville Waste Paper continues to prioritize environmental sustainability and community impact.
