As recycling has changed over the past 30 years, each sector has had to adapt and adjust to keep the system running smoothly because recycling is a collaborative effort and no business or sector operates in seclusion.

Today we know, for example, if recyclable materials are not collected, there’s no feedstock for new recycled content products. When materials are contaminated or poorly processed, manufacturers cannot make high quality products from them. Manufacturers must buy the recovered materials, or collectors and processors have no markets, and consumers must buy recycled products. Contaminated recyclables are not made back into new products, they are landfilled.

Recycling can only be sustainable when the whole, interdependent system works together.

 "Collection"
is not the same as
"Recycling"
Recycling includes processing and making new products!

Freecycle
www.freecycle.org
The Freecycle Network is made up of 4,167 groups with 4,081,000 members across the globe. It's a grassroots and entirely nonprofit movement of people who are giving (& getting) stuff for free in their own towns. It's all about reuse and keeping good stuff out of landfills.

DISPOSAL FOR ROOFING WASTE

State law requires that roofing waste material, including asphalt shingles, wooden shakes and tar paper, must be disposed of in a permitted solid waste facility, such as a sanitary landfill or transfer station.

Illegal dumping of roofing debris, which is illegal and can result in both civil and criminal penalties for an individual or construction company violating the law. The state's air pollution regulations also prohibit the burning of asphalt shingles and most associated wastes.

The Department of Natural Resources encourages any homeowner who is contemplating the removal or repair of a roof to confirm with the contractor that the cost for proper or legal disposal of waste generated from the work is included in the price they are paying for the repairs.

If disposal is not included in the repair work, it becomes the homeowner's responsibility to arrange for proper disposal of the waste.  If disposal costs are included in the price for the work it is highly recommended the homeowner confirm proper disposal practices of their contractor such as requiring copies of disposal receipts from the landfill, and that the contractor meets all local ordinances and codes. 

The department highly encourages recycling or reuse of any product prior to consideration of disposal. For more information read this DNR publication http://www.dnr.mo.gov/pubs/pub2045.pdf

Telephone Directory Recycling

What do you do when the new telephones books are delivered?

  • Option 1: Stack the books in your home or office forever;
  • Option 2: Send the books to a landfill where they will also stay forever;
  • Option 3: Recycle them!

Project ReDirectory is the annual event that collects and recycles those old telephone books. This recycling project is sponsored by AT&T Real Yellow Pages and the City of Joplin Recycling Department. While telephone books can be recycled throughout the year, distribution time is a great opportunity to remind everyone to recycle. Telephone directories may be dropped off all year at the Joplin Recycling Center, Neosho Regional Recycle Center, Seneca Recycling Center, Carthage Recycling and Compost Center, and any Paper Pal container generally placed at most Joplin public schools. AT&T also has a national hotline (800-953-4400) based on zip codes. 
Fun fact...one ton of recycled directories saves 3.3 cubic yards of landfill space.

If you have questions, contact the following recycling centers: Joplin 417-624-0820 Ext. 501; Neosho 417-455-9430; Seneca 417-776-2773; Carthage 417-237-7024, Pittsburg, Kansas 620-231-8930; and Paper Pal information through Service Recycling at 417-625-0700.

Landfill Gas Project to help Power Lamar’s future.

Prairie View landfill is the third Allied/Republic Waste landfill in the state to convert methane into electrical energy. Prairie View is located in Lamar, MO, and is the second largest landfill in Missouri. The five-year project has cost roughly 6 million dollars to develop. Two 1.6-megawatt generators have been purchased to generate electricity by burning methane and there are plans to purchase three more to produce a total of 9.6 megawatts of electricity, which is about half of the Cities needs.

A typical house in Lamar uses about 1,000 kilowatts of electricity a month. The two generators will produce energy to power 2,300 houses.

There are about 2,200 houses in Lamar. A spokesman for Allied/Republic Waste said the Prairie View Landfill could operate 25 to 30 years into the future, depending on the flow of waste to the landfill.
