Materials Exchange
Western/Central New York Materials Exchange
Managed by the GLOW Region Solid Waste Management Committee
MAT-EX was established in 1992 as a program aimed at keeping non-hazardous materials with reuse value out of landfills and incinerators. Originally serving a six-county region, MAT-EX has now expanded to include 19 counties in Western and Central New York.
The MAT-EX program allows any individual, business, school, institution, non-profit service organization, or government agency in the 19-county region to locate users for surplus materials previously discarded, or to find green or inexpensive materials.
MAT-EX maintains a website at www.mat-ex.org that is updated weekly.
