Life of a landfill: What happens to Kent County’s trash

In November, Kent County Department of Public Works Director Dar Baas took News 8 onto the “working face” of the South Kent landfill to see where more than 1,000 tons of trash goes every day. (April 21, 2022)

Thank you

Definitely sucks that this is the solution , doesn’t make sense that it’s cheaper to throw away than to Recycle , should be the opposite way more expensive to throw away and less to recycle therefore it pushes people more towards recycling. I am landfill operator in CA and we are filling up fast as well , we got 3-4 years left here in this landfill in Glendale CA.

Dump everything in a huge grinder. It decompose faster.
