Jodi Murphy founds Murco in LaGrange Park, IL. She is a new homeowner herself, and would like to fix-up her fixer-upper. When a neighbor’s historic house is being demolished the light bulb goes off and Jodi gets to work. She names her company after a combination of the name “Murphy” and “company”. What can we say? The 80’s were simpler times.

Murco wins the Outstanding Recycler Recognition from the Illinois Recycling Association.
