Our Facilities

Upon receipt of inbound materials, the initial processing step takes place on the outdoor concrete pad where material is unloaded.

At this point, targeted materials including sheetrock, cardboard, bulky non-processibles (such as carpet) and large iron and concrete objects are segregated using large front-end loaders and excavators.

The remaining material is stockpiled and fed into the process line, which includes a screen for initial size separation.

Next, a series of three staffed picking stations, two hammermill shredders, additional screens to size-segregate into different fractions, and magnets separate ferrous metal.

The Epping facility also incorporates a water-based density separation system that removes brick, rock and other metals to create high-quality wood chip products.

The end result are product streams – woodchips of various grades, ferrous metals, aggregate, corrugated paper, and other recyclables – that meet or exceed quality standards required by the markets to which the products are sold. The remaining residues (typically less than 25% of inbound materials) are segregated and sent to landfill.
