The GreenWaste Materials Recovery Yard incorporates three distinct processing facilities, each designed to separate different types of materials. All three facilities have been designed with the specific material types in mind to maximize our chances of not missing anything.
The largest of the facilities is this Commingled Recyclables facility. This facility takes residential and commercial mixed recyclables and separates them into individual commodities, including cardboard, glass, aluminum and different plastics. These materials are baled and sent to processors to produce new products. Processing material at over 45 tons per hour, this plant will recover over 95% of the material it processes.
