Sadly weather damaged the boxes, but they could have been thrown out in brand new condition. Couple of them in new condition could cost 100-200$ each.
I worked at a garbage company about 10 years ago and EVERYTHING was sorted. We had a department for e-waste, all recyclable material (from metal, cardboard, plastic, paper, aluminum cans, glass bottles, etc.) , we had a department for hazardous waste (that's was my department), wood would get thrown into a woodchipper and given away for free to anyone who wanted some, and everything that wasn't recyclable would then either get sent to a landfill or sent to another state who could then resource whatever they can get out of it. We'd sort through basically everything from all of the main town as well as the neighboring towns.

This is incredible. I would so like to see this start a movement that helps dispose of trash in a way that can be beneficial on top of being healthy for the environment.
Not sure you all realize how well done this video was. Personally, I've seen a lot of videos and books in my Waste Management days. This is one of the simplest, yet, very professional and well informative.
I also enjoyed the video, but the way they portray the plant as reducing CO2 is just plain wrong. They say the carbon filters absorb pollutants, but they leave out the percentages, and then go on to say how 'nitrogen' is released from the chimney when in reality it's massively polluting. A good video however it seems like they're pushing the agenda of this specific waste management company. Imo.
Nitrogen isn’t actually polluting. Nitrogen is the most abundant gas we breath, it takes up approximately 78% of the atmosphere. It’s also very essential for living organisms. Especially plants. Lastly, this facility definitely produces less CO2 than an open landfill does.
@@BobMcBurger1 I think you've misunderstood what I said. The video makes it sound like nitrogen and 'normal air' is what comes out of the chimey, but in reality it's very polluting.
Burning trash and turning it into heat and electricity has been standard practise for a very long time now. Did you think they just threw it into the ocean or something?
In Sweden only 0,8 of the garbage goes to landfills. The rest is either recycled, turned into biogas (for the city buses for instanc) or burned for electricity. We even _import_ garbage from the UK, Ireland and Norway.
@@charlespanache7047 Sanitation workers, especially public sector ones, make very good wages. Better than most Americans make. Their benefits are also pretty solid. Private sector is more hit or miss but Republic Services and Waste Management do have decent salaries and benefits.
None of them want more respect. Garbage men are happy the fact many americans despise the job, because it means more work and money for them. Why waste time being in school when you can make more money throwing garbage around than university graduates do.
My dad works in the removal of methane gas from landfills which then is used to make clean energy and he was talking about how the ash that is put on the landfills is horrible because it stops the flow of the methane(basically like a dead layer)and when it hardens, it's like rock and creates water drainage issues.
@@hunterhq295 Yeah, that’s what’s usually done. I don’t know why anyone would use ash made of burned garbage instead of dirt? How do you expect things to grow over the landfill if you use garbage as soil?
These people who work for these services are absolute heroes!!! Because of them we do not get sick, we are not infested by rats, diseases, landfill does not get into our drinking water. We keep our air clean, our homes clean and nature as clean as possible.
Yes. Burning it for power is a good idea. But we need to develop better sorting and recycling too. Japan does it; I learned more about recycling from anime than I ever did in school! X3
So true yet so many of us run blind until the very sad ending encompass their lifestyle. Big corporations should investigate better ways of packaging etc. which leads to so much waste. Our society is as if a drunken driver is at the wheel running wildly to a bitter end no man knows or could comprehend its bitter end. God save us if it were even possible. ✌️
Take the scene from the Biggie movie. His teacher told him that he would wind up a garbage man making $28k a year and found out that teachers made $24k, and did the math in front of the class to show the class how stupid his teacher was.
I know people who have graduated with a bachelor's, and chose to work in public service, and i also know people who drop out and become successful! Its infuriating that anyone would use these people as "drop out" examples. They are an integral part od our society, helping to keep US SAFE.
It's true. I was a garbage man making money in the summers during college. Eventually your nose shuts down. Year's later I don’t smell much unless I stop and try to smell something.

One man’s discarded Star Wars memorabilia is another fan’s treasure!!! LOVE these people cleaning up our streets... truly amazing system we have. Albeit not perfect, but it’s working!!! What great attitudes they have.
I can't help but think part of the problem IS that "once the garbage man comes and picks it up, you don't think any more about it". That disconnect has to drive a blasé attitude about generating waste.
So I had to work at convanta in D.C., we replaced one of the cranes. I’ve never smelled something so bad. I can’t smell anything that bad, literally nothing bothers me anymore cause that placed smelled so bad. I give them boy’s credit and they are making bank
Highest respect to these people and the important work they do. People need to respect sanitation workers and janitors. It takes only a few days of them not turning up to work to realize their value. Great story BI, this is such a welcome change from the mainstream media trash we are typically fed.
many of them.in my country doesnt have proper payment, sanitary, nor proper truck. seeing how USA have better garbage truck, proper tools and protection for the workers makes my country has the shittiest garbage management. gosh.....
I don't get this type of comment people are making. "Respect sanitation workers" as if they are doing something more honorable than regular people with job. These people are getting paid six figures. Yes it's dirty work but they get paid to do what they do. Doesn't mean when we flip burgers at Mckey D we do not deserve respect. We don't need to call them disrespectfully or specially. They are just regular workers like we are. They are getting paid for what they do.
@@user-fx5sw4jy7hYz9Hzi where in the world do they get six figures? have you do search? whats the differences of garbage workers in each country? maybe in some of rich country payed high amount, as far as i know not here.
Im a trucker and i carry garbage aswell, i can take 28tons max and usually i take it 1000km between countries, i work in scandinavia, this is very common and usual here, a large part of the economy is built around carrying goods to one country and carrying garbage back to another instead of driving 1000km empty which would greatly increase the price of goods and it pays our trip back.
I remember before direct deposit and debit cards, my husband was a truck driver. He hauled garbage from NY to California. On the trip back he would pick up loads of money, mostly coins in Vegas to bring back to the east, so that they could be evenly distributed. He never smelled trash, he and the convoy always smelled. 🤑🤑🤑 If you didn't get on drugs in the 70's you made good money back then. A lot of the drivers worked for more prestigious companies, like my husband worked for Greyhound. He took off that gray suit and threw on those jeans, and hit the road jack!!! 😁
I actually went to one in Australia coz in Brisbane they have warehouses where residents can take chunks of waste, and omigosh the smell was so bad that my eyes watered and my lungs felt like someone was squeezing it.
"So why does NYC send its trash so far away?" New Jersey got filled up and sick of NYC dumping their trash here. The even tried to make it illegal, but the Supreme Court said New Jersey did not have the right to not be NYC's landfill.
There's a guy in Shanghai that figured out how to filter air pollution into a vacuum and convert them into bricks. I think every waste processing and manufacturing plants in general should adopt this technology for all of their emissions. Seems like Covanta is already pretty clean and efficient but imagine if they produced modular bricks for cheap housing out of the pollution produce from being trash. There is no such thing as "waste", only byproduct. The trick is figuring out how to utilize all the byproducts.
I personally favor landfills more, because once full of trash, it’s neatly compacted and a national park is made on top with a forest of trees being planted on top. Because of what is done to landfills after they are full, they’re actually the better alternative
Why? Not like they doing us a favour or do it for fun. They also dont clean up after us, we clean up after ourselves. They choose to accept pay to do the job.
I am a dumpster diver, and I find it a shame to see many many things in the dumpsters that only requires a little handyman fix, like a window ac that only need the filter cleaned, vacumes that the hose only needs to be unplugged, furniture that only needs a little stain or paint would bring it back to life again, microwaves that only needs to be cleaned because they were to lazy to clean it so they threw it out rather than taking a few minutes to clean it. very sad.
I went to school with a kid who when asked in elementary school what he wanted to be when he grew up he replied Garbageman. His reasoning was astonishingly solid given his age, plenty of job security, good pay and benefits, that was it. Pretty smart for a 9yr old
my mom for all of high school encouraged me to drive trains for the same reasons. i never had any interest in that because you can't steer where to go.
I went to highschool with a dude that wanted to be a garage man. 20 years later he makes more than me who went to and graduated college. Good stuff. Job security.

I used to visit NYC frequently for business and a few times on vacation, and learned to pick my hotel room CAREFULLY! Nighttime is when almost all deliveries and pickups are done. You don’t want a street side or alley facing room, as the noise level increases exponentially. The higher the better too, as there is less street noise. After so many sleepless nights I began wearing earplugs at night, but then changed to picking a smarter hotel room location.
Here in Oregon, some beverage containers come with a 10 cent deposite. This encourages consumers to recycle them to get that 10 cents back. Reduce, Reuse, Recycle.
Michigan has that too, it’s 10 cents here. Republicans wanna get rid of it because they think it’s ridiculous to make people pay extra and recycle to get money back. I honestly love it, I don’t know anybody who has a problem with it. Good way to make $15-20 bucks once a month when you’re in high school that’s like $50

Am I correct in assuming your school has one class and that's "garbage"? Surely you've learnt something else, otherwise I don't think we can blame the school..
Nope. Has to be consumer driven. Manufacturers will produce as long as there's demand because that's where the incentive lies to make money. The consumer has to change his demand. Just look at alcohol prohibition and the drug trade. You can make manufacturing, sale, and distribution all illegal, but people will still do it because the demand is there. The ONLY way you change that equation is to reduce demand. You need a better solution.
@@no8002 I think what would be interesting would be a waste tax on manufacturers. For example if their product is 100% recyclable and is not often sent to processing plants they would avoid this, but if their product caused waste which led them to these processing plants they would pay a tax for it which would help fund the plants.
As someone who worked as a custodian for many years, theyre HIGHLY underappreciated and looked down upon. If custodians and garbage disposal workers were to go on strike, people would quickly see just how filthy humans are and how important and valuable these workers are. Sanitation workers should be thanked for their service just like troops are. We do a huge service!
Just like troops? You mean Military? Umm no, you shouldnt. You pick up trash, no risk to your life, or limb, and you get to go home everyday, so dont even diminish military service by trying to say your garbage collection warrants you being respected.

Sadly weather damaged the boxes, but they could have been thrown out in brand new condition. Couple of them in new condition could cost 100-200$ each.
Except if it's Jar jar Binks
honestly!
I worked at a garbage company about 10 years ago and EVERYTHING was sorted. We had a department for e-waste, all recyclable material (from metal, cardboard, plastic, paper, aluminum cans, glass bottles, etc.) , we had a department for hazardous waste (that's was my department), wood would get thrown into a woodchipper and given away for free to anyone who wanted some, and everything that wasn't recyclable would then either get sent to a landfill or sent to another state who could then resource whatever they can get out of it. We'd sort through basically everything from all of the main town as well as the neighboring towns.

@@johnnyoneye2641 yes sir! Lol lucky guess

Not sure you all realize how well done this video was. Personally, I've seen a lot of videos and books in my Waste Management days. This is one of the simplest, yet, very professional and well informative.
I also enjoyed the video, but the way they portray the plant as reducing CO2 is just plain wrong. They say the carbon filters absorb pollutants, but they leave out the percentages, and then go on to say how 'nitrogen' is released from the chimney when in reality it's massively polluting. A good video however it seems like they're pushing the agenda of this specific waste management company. Imo.
Nitrogen isn’t actually polluting. Nitrogen is the most abundant gas we breath, it takes up approximately 78% of the atmosphere. It’s also very essential for living organisms. Especially plants.
Lastly, this facility definitely produces less CO2 than an open landfill does.
@@BobMcBurger1 I think you've misunderstood what I said. The video makes it sound like nitrogen and 'normal air' is what comes out of the chimey, but in reality it's very polluting.
Lift smelly trash and cash out seems like a good job

This honestly is pretty good journalism. I didn't know they turned disgusting trash bags into electricity. Pretty smart thinking.
Good for reducing the co2 emissions don't you think!
Burning trash and turning it into heat and electricity has been standard practise for a very long time now. Did you think they just threw it into the ocean or something?
Been going on for years, read more.
In Sweden only 0,8 of the garbage goes to landfills. The rest is either recycled, turned into biogas (for the city buses for instanc) or burned for electricity. We even _import_ garbage from the UK, Ireland and Norway.

Im a trucker and i carry garbage aswell, i can take 28tons max and usually i take it 1000km between countries, i work in scandinavia, this is very common and usual here, a large part of the economy is built around carrying goods to one country and carrying garbage back to another instead of driving 1000km empty which would greatly increase the price of goods and it pays our trip back.
I remember before direct deposit and debit cards, my husband was a truck driver. He hauled garbage from NY to California. On the trip back he would pick up loads of money, mostly coins in Vegas to bring back to the east, so that they could be evenly distributed. He never smelled trash, he and the convoy always smelled. 🤑🤑🤑 If you didn't get on drugs in the 70's you made good money back then.

The responsibility of reducing waste should be on the manufacturers, not just the consumers.
Agreed, that is one of the reasons why we need the right to repair act
I’m not sure if you came up with this theory yourself but it’s genius. It will drive prices up and reduce purchases and, therefore, waste.
Nope. Has to be consumer driven. Manufacturers will produce as long as there's demand because that's where the incentive lies to make money. The consumer has to change his demand. Just look at alcohol prohibition and the drug trade. You can make manufacturing, sale, and distribution all illegal, but people will still do it because the demand is there. The ONLY way you change that equation is to reduce demand. You need a better solution.
Exactly, funny how it isn’t and the end consumer pays
@@no8002 I think what would be interesting would be a waste tax on manufacturers. For example if their product is 100% recyclable and is not often sent to processing plants they would avoid this, but if their product caused waste which led them to these processing plants they would pay a tax for it which would help fund the plants.
