Recycling is the process of collecting and reusing that helps the countries to achieve their sustainable development goals. This study, for the first time in the literature, considers the recycling of many daily consumption products as a decision-making problem with the q-rung orthopair fuzzy (q-ROF) approach. In Turkey, recycling initiatives are primarily led by the government and municipalities, involving either reprocessing in public facilities or collaboration with private enterprises. The research evaluates the effectiveness of recycling strategies, considering paper, plastic, textiles, batteries, frying oils, electronics, glass, and wood as alternative products. Criteria such as convertibility rate, resource usage for recycling, converted product lifespan, recycling process complexity, economic gain, product consumption rate, and trading opportunities are employed in the decision-making process. The q-rung orthopair fuzzy Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (q-ROFTOPSIS) method is applied to assess these criteria. Decision makers, comprising a recycling expert, a recycling business engineer, and an academician specializing in recycling studies, contribute to the evaluation. The study reveals electronic products as the most successful in recycling, while frying oils exhibit the least success.
