Having cleared 100 million cubic yards of tree debris and utilizing it efficiently, Tony has become the timber waste management industry, mogul.
Not all heroes wear capes; some wear multiple hats and lead from the front to champion noble causes to make the world a better, sustainable place to live. Tony Raynor is one such entrepreneur, also known as the Captain of the Tree Industry, who continuously strives to make positive contributions to ensure that our beloved planet remains a sustainable place to live. He is the founder of Sustainable Green Team (SGTM) and its two subsidiaries, National Storm Recovery LLC and Mulch Manufacturing Inc.
Natural disasters wreak havoc on the environment, decimating millions of trees every year, and these damaged trees can block roads, damage cars, and houses, and even kill or injure people. The hero, the Captain, Tony, out of his love for the environment, has taken the lead in helping the people and the environment remain safe and recover in the wake of a natural disaster and its aftermath.
SGTM is Tony’s brainchild and has significantly contributed to mitigating environmental challenges, including storm recovery, waste management, and arbor care.
Tony Raynor – The Man Behind Sustainable Environmental Projects
Tony Raynor is an accomplished entrepreneur in the truest sense. As a staunch supporter and advocate of a sustainable environment, Tony Raynor launched his flagship National Storm Recovery Project in 2017, aiming to clean up the environmental mess following natural disasters.
The “Captain of the Tree Industry” has dedicated his life to this cause and has led 25 storm recovery initiatives. To date, he and his team have removed more than 100 million cubic yards of debris, and given the magnitude of the natural disasters that hit the country, this is no mean feat.
His contributions have significantly impacted and influenced his career. With dedication and selfless devotion, he has established his business into one of the leading organizations that champion environmental causes. Following his remarkable success, he acquired Mulch Manufacturing Inc. in 2020.
Timber Waste Management Redefined
National Storm Recovery, headquartered in Astatula, Florida, provides disaster cleanup services to commercial and domestic customers. The company’s divisions oversee all post-storm management services – debris hauling, biomass recycling, and mulch manufacturing.
Storm recovery requires comprehensive planning, effort, and efficiency. National Storm Recovery has been set up in a region closest to the dump site/temporary debris staging (TDS) area. The team collaborates with locals to clear the roads quickly, and the acquired material is ground up and transformed into mulch.
Within National Storm Recovery is Central Florida Arbor Care, based north of Orlando in Astatula, a tree-care division with certified arborists who oversee all the tree-removal operations. SGTM’s tree collection division collects the debris and stores it in two wood recycling sites in Apopka and nearby Astatula. On those sites, tree waste is processed into the highly desirable mulch products that SGTM markets to big-box retailers, garden centers, and landscapers.
SGTM – Promoting A Greener, Cleaner, & Safer Environment
To simplify recycling and garbage disposal, SGTM offers efficient and dependable services and solutions to keep all operations smooth while managing transfer stations, recycling centers, and landfills.
The business is dedicated to conserving the environment for us and our future generations. To address the current and future markets’ recycling and solid waste needs, SGTM offers eco-friendly solutions to assist businesses in achieving their sustainability goals.
Future Expansion Plans – Roadmap to A Sustainable Future
Raynor claims that SGTM has plans to expand its business operations across Astatula, with a 100-acre facility for tree-waste collection. Millions of cubic yards of organic debris can be stored in the expansive area, resulting in significant transportation cost reductions for SGTM’s debris hauling division. The Astatula location will also have a 5,000-square-feet building with a dedicated office and warehouse space.
