Packaging EPR compliance

The outsourced office for packaging EPR.

For consumer brands and importers too big to ignore the obligation and too lean to staff it. We determine where you're obligated, collect packaging data from your suppliers, file in every state, and forecast next year's fee — with the changes that would lower it.

  • Written answer by email
  • No cost, no call required
  • States, rules and deadlines

Coverage

How it works

One office for the whole obligation.

Every step from "are we even covered?" to a filed report and a fee your finance team can plan around.

  1. 01

    Determine

    Which states you're a covered producer in, under which rule, and by when — with the reasoning in writing.

  2. 02

    Collect

    Materials and weights for every component, gathered from your suppliers and mapped to each state's categories.

  3. 03

    File

    Producer registration and annual reporting in every state where you're obligated.

  4. 04

    Forecast

    Next year's fee by state and material, ready for your accrual — plus the packaging changes that would lower it.

Where to start

Start with a Fee Forecast.

A fixed-price first engagement that tells you exactly where you stand — and what it will cost.

Fee Forecast

$3,500fixed price · delivered in 10 business days
  • Obligation determination within 48 hours — which states you're a covered producer in, under which rule, with the reasoning written out
  • SKU-level packaging map — what data you have, what's missing, and which supplier holds it
  • Fee forecast by state and by material for the next reporting years
  • Three fee-reduction levers, each with a dollar estimate
  • Penalty exposure and a filing calendar with every deadline
  • A 45-minute readout with you and your finance lead
The guarantee: if the fee-reduction levers we identify don't exceed what you paid for the Forecast, you don't pay for it.
