Recycling, Chapter, and Deal me In awards

Close out Industry Conference 2026 in unforgettable style at our Closing Dinner and Awards aboard the USS Midway on Wednesday, January 21. Set against San Diego’s stunning waterfront, this special evening is your chance to celebrate with colleagues while honoring the people and innovations driving our industry forward.

We’ll recognize the winners of the Deal Me In Competition, where future leaders put their skills to the test in a high-stakes, case study competition, as well as the Chapter Leadership Awards for members who’ve gone above and beyond to strengthen our chapters. Plus, the NWRA Recycling Awards will shine a spotlight on excellence and innovation in recycling, organics, construction and demolition, and sustainability partnerships.

Don’t miss this inspiring evening of recognition, networking, and celebration as we wrap up the week aboard one of San Diego’s most iconic landmarks.
