GREEN INITIATIVES
Green Alternatives
Being "green" or recycling are optional procedures for waste management companies
in the state of Texas, but at Pro Star Waste we believe in providing those options to our
environmentally-friendly customers. We will take your waste, sort out the recyclables, and
compact the rest to lower landfill impact.
How We Do This
Pro Star has permitted a transfer station at its existing place of business in Goodrich,
Texas. The transfer station enables Pro Star to transfer Construction and Demolition
(C&D) waste from partially loaded containers, consolidate and compact the waste into
larger containers, and reduce the number of trips to the landfill.
In the process of transferring the C&D waste, Pro Star removes appropriate recyclable
material from the waste loads. Typical C&D waste collected by Pro Star contains
quantities of wood, aluminum, ferrous metal, brush and tree waste, and other materials
that have some value as a recyclable commodity. Pro Star will remove and recycle as
much of this material as is reasonably and economically feasible. This operation results in
reducing dependency on landfill disposal and help reach the goals for waste diversion and
recycling that have been established by the State of Texas. |
