The company states that it recycled 1,423 light bulbs and 243 pounds of batteries at headquarters. However, the total amount of hazardous waste recycled is not disclosed.

 

Sustainability Report - 2019, page no.80

"In FY2018 and FY2019, our Guess U.S. corporate headquarters sent 262.6 tons and 232.6 tons of waste to landfill, respectively. This represents a sharp decline from the 496.6 tons of waste sent to landfill in FY2017, which is largely attributed to a reduction in construction activities. During these two years, we also steadily increased our mixed recycling rate by over 10%, from 73.98 tons in FY2017 to 89.29 tons in FY2019. As part of our strict adherence to safe handling practices for hazardous waste, we recycled 1,423 light bulbs and 243 pounds of batteries at our Guess U.S. headquarters."
