Organic Materials & Yard Waste
Organic waste can be recycled at a lesser cost then disposal in a municipal landfill. This material is ground down using an industrial sized tub grinder and the resulting product is used for chipping and mulching. This side of the Center’s operations are available to anyone and no appointment is necessary. Some examples of organic materials collected are:
- Grass Clippings and Leaves
- Wood Chips and Pine Needles
- Untreated Wood/Lumber
- Brush, Tree Limbs and Logs
- Christmas Trees
Household Hazardous Waste
Many common household products can not be thrown in the garbage or poured down the drain, making them difficult to dispose of. The Rooney Road Recycling Center’s Household Hazardous Waste Disposal Facility offers Jefferson County residents a convenient, year round, location to recycle/dispose of items like:
- Latex and Oil Based Paint
- Cleaners and Pesticides
- Motor Oil and Antifreeze
- Electronics and Batteries
- and more
