Founded in 1996, COR is Portland’s largest and most innovative waste and recycling company, recognized for its sustainability efforts and commitment to the local community. Our impact continues to grow as we serve more clients, engage with neighbors, and expand our diverse workforce. Recently, we’ve been in the spotlight for securing new funding, adopting cutting-edge technology, and forming exciting partnerships to divert more waste from landfills and help local businesses and governments reduce their carbon footprints. In 2023, we led the way by transitioning our fleet to R99 renewable diesel—the cleanest option available—and proudly introduced Oregon’s first fully electric garbage truck.

While we’ve seen incredible growth, we always prioritize people and planet over profits. COR is committed to making our world and our community a better place for all people, and for future generations.  We invest in diversity, workforce development, and forward-thinking concepts like the COR Campus innovation hub that’s creating the future of ClimateTech and Oregon’s circular economy.

Our COR Values guide us every day in the way we work and interact with each other:

1. Committed: we are committed to excellence, we possess strong work ethic and we always do the right thing.
2. Team Player: we show respect and openness to collaborate with others; we are always willing to lend a helping hand.
3. Problem Solver: we think critically to identify and solve problems; we propose and implement thoughtful solutions.
4. Get It Done: we focus on completing our work efficiently and on time, overcoming obstacles along the way.
