Recology
(https://recology.com) 📸 Data Snapshot: June 19, 2026Inspect the JSON-LD. Is there an Organization or Person schema, and does it carry sameAs links to real external profiles (LinkedIn, socials)? Missing schema or no identity declaration signals an anonymous entity.
A significant authority gap exists in the technical implementation; the site lacks Organization or Person schema to link the brand and its award-winning employees to external knowledge graphs. Named experts and drivers lack sameAs links or digital footprints in the structured data. Furthermore, the missing H1s on strategic sub-pages (‘Where We Serve’ and ‘Art of Recology’) suggest a technical credibility gap that contrasts with their claims of ‘Waste Innovation’.
Recology makes bold claims about ‘reshaping systems’ and ‘creating real momentum’, but the site stops short of providing the actual performance metrics from their 2025 Sustainability Update within the main text flow. The mention of ‘decreasing greenhouse gas emissions’ is a high-level performance claim that currently lacks a direct numerical baseline or percentage-of-progress indicator in the provided pages. Most claims are narrative rather than data-driven in the immediate view.
Identity & Authority is read from the structured data first: whether the site declares who it is in machine-readable schema, with verifiable identity links. Below is the schema captured per page, then the external proof links that support (or fail to support) that identity.
