Municipal Solid Waste

Solving Our Community’s Waste Challenges.

From our origins as a construction and demolition facility, we’ve grown into a multifaceted waste-management hub. This has allowed us to further support Marion County’s material recovery goals while also meeting all of our community’s growing waste needs.

Local Haulers

We intake weekly residential, commercial, and industrial waste loads direct from local haulers, reducing the distances haulers must travel around the region.

Transfer Stations

We process waste collected at area transfer stations in order to reclaim materials and sort and prepare waste for more efficient transport to its final destination.

General Public

We accept waste and recycling drop off from the general public, as well as C&D waste direct from contractors. This waste, rather than going straight to the landfill, is first sorted to recover reusable materials.
