Unlike Jesse we don’t think all people are lazy, far from it. A large and growing percentage of Logan County residents, especially those involved in recycling, cannot be considered lazy. These are people who care about the environment and work to keep it clean, and recycle to save energy, resources, and expense. A MRF is a ‘material recovery facility’, a place where recycled materials are sorted, bailed and sent to mills for reprocessing into new products. A dirty MRF is one where all garbage and trash is picked up from the curbside unsorted. It is sorted on a conveyer line by workers who pick through the garbage and trash to pull out the valuable recycle materials. Dirty MRF’s are expensive and don’t rely on people to do anything except keep throwing things away without thought about where they are going. It is for this reason that we oppose a dirty MRF. We are a Zero Waste County and opening a dirty MRF will assure that zero waste will never be achieved. We would rather take the longer route of education, economic incentive, and providing convenience to raise our recycling rate to that of other countries where it is indeed very high. A. Hale, Coordinator

We would like to work with you to reduce your waste being sent to landfills.
