Citizens within the recycling district may drop off
residential brush. City crews involved in residential brush pickup
also haul to the recycling center.
A grinder is hired by the recycling center several times a
year to grind the brush down to a mulch. Pictured is a track hoe which drops the branches and other debris in the rotating dish of the
grinder. After grinding, the mulch is dropped off a conveyer belt
onto a pile.
The mulch is free to residents within the recycling
district, however many choose to incur a fee to have the mulch loaded onto
their vehicle.
Firewood is also another recycling product that is free to residents
within the district.
Grass clippings, leaves, and similar year waste
are placed in a separate area within the recycling property to form compost
piles. The compost is periodically turned over as part of the degrading process
until it becomes rich top soil. This soil is also available to
residents within the district.
