On all this wood and trees, awesome operation and you can make money by the pound, for this for landscaping and so on. There is a place not too far form here, where I can get gardeing dirt and mulch that they will sell you by the yard. Also great that his cousin has a saw mill, to mill all the better logs, and can then sell them as well. Love the concete area as well, cause all of that can be used or resued in the construction trade, for driveways and such. Chris and Mike would know that well.. Now Andrew Camarata has a rock crusher at one of his properties that he blew up a part of his one mountain so he could crush the rock and build the LONG LONG driveway and road on... Also blew up another part of his mountain by his Castle property. Great videos! Like the blocks as well, Love the ones with the horses, but you have to have those certain people that like that.

There is a company where I live that makes mulch out of pallets . They grind them up and then magnets take any fasters out. It is them dyed in various colors . The towns pickup leaves and brush. They also pick up limbs . The brush and limbs are chipped for mulch and the leaves are piled for compost. Anyone can take what they want for free . People love the leaves to mix in their gardens and the chipped wood makes great mulch . The smaller municipalities have rubbish grass clipping pickup from spring to fall and it's taken to the county landfill and made into compost which is ready in the spring for anyone who wants it at no charge . On construction sites they have to recycle any concrete block scraps or old clean block that is not painted . It is hauled to a crushing plant that mixes it in with new block concrete mix. Old fiberglass ceiling tiles are also saved and and hauled to a plant where they are shredded and mixed into new fiberglass for ceiling tiles. 50% of waste in my county is recycled .
