Employee’s can respect a BOSS that has done it all and not afraid to help out when needed ❤😊
👍👍
I'm with you. I am a recycling nut. We need to get everyone recycling as a fact of life.
Recycling worker for 15 years, sad truth most people who recycle don't do it properly or put the proper items into the bins. If you really want to help follow your local rules and guide lines, bc not all plastic is recyclable.
I'm not a hoarder, but I could definitely see myself being one if I worked their. 👍👍👍
You and me both!
@@TheRealMrDiGG At 22:45 I imagine that the barrels did not contain HAZMAT products (toxic product) and if it would have been the case how do you manage hazardous materials that could involuntarily be found in a load of waste
yeah id be opening a giant tent to sell some of the reusable stuff theres alot of good stuff that gets junked
I'm with Waste management and we are not allowed to get out and pick up anything stay in dozer and push
@@TheRealMrDiGGme too
Mike is the kind of employee that keeps a business growing.
I’d say that load was 70% recyclable.
I say 90
@@TheRealMrDiGG It all could be if we could just afford to get that serious with it but people will never do it..
@@lewiemcneely9143it's extremely difficult to recycle various plastics, and doing it multiple times is hard as well, very cost prohibitive.
So it's not always about effort or "getting serious" about it, if the material is bad and cannot be recycled, it's not about having the will to do it.
Ideally, companies just wouldn't make materials that cannot be recycled, and there'd be materials that can easily recycled over and over made.
@@colinofay7237 RIGHT!
@@colinofay7237 All the landfill here is concerned amout is the tonnage. They have conex boxes there for recycling but you have to go there to do it and it's a long gravel road there and back. The local collectors don't have the rigs to haul seperate items. It's all bagged and weighed as a load. No coloection points so we do what we do and throw it all in and it goes away and that's it. Until someone invests money in a rig to carry seperate kinds of stuff for recycling it'll never happen.
The best boss/business owner is one that has done the job BUT still "gets their hands dirty" and mucks in when needed. Hat off to you, Mr Digg!
Pepperboys!! How y’all doing?! 👋
18:24 ... " i'm retired military I work cuz I want to " ...man what a great attitude, good on you man.
👍👍
Never thought I'd be watching a dump channel. But I find it interesting.
lol thanks!
Same 😂
Places like yours are going to set the example for the changes we need to reduce waste in landfills. Some of these landfills are ticking time bombs for future generations to deal with.
Mike the driver deserves a little "undercover boss" reward. However, you blew your cover at @18:50.
👍
Recently when we hired a crew of five for a property maintenance project, we brought them lunch, provided snacks, and beverages every day. One of the men thanked us and said "'Most people just look through us as if we aren't really there." Thank you for recognizing your employee family. Family isn't just the ones you grow up with but also the ones you grow better with. Until next time...just do the next thing.
thanks!
Boy, I bet those environmental tree huggers are going crazy seeing all of that cardboard going in the landfill. They'll live. Great Video 👍
Hey now, I love trees lol We actually recycle a significant amount of cardboard, everyone can live in harmony
We're growing trees all over North America. That adds up to a lot renewable materials. Trees huggers need to quit crying and literally see the trees despite the forest.
Your connection and attitude towards the employees are spot on. I spent 25 years with Southwest Airlines because the employees were looked at as the most valuable asset and treated with respect. Companies who recognize the importance of great employees have much greater success.
Totally agree!
I've always been off the mindset that i would never ask an employee to do something i wouldn't be prepared to do myself. Earning respect builds a good team culture.
👍👍
i guess what they say is true one man's trash is an other man's treasure, great video Ryan 👍👍👍👍👍👍
You got that right!
I'm with you on recycling the cardboard. I take all my Amazon boxes to the recycler about every three months. Back in the early 80's our yard was a half block away from a cardboard recycler. Working for a large telecommunications company who's first name starts with A and last name starts with T, the middle name also starts with T, we stored the cardboard and it would pay for a beer bust for the entire yard, not just our crew a couple times a year. So we all benefited from recycling. 85% is my guess.
👍👍
Holy crap this is horrifying..
We got a lot of work to do as a society to be more responsible with waste
It all came from the ground, it’s just going back. Matter can not be created or destroyed….everything that is here, has been here, and will always be here.
@@Jay_Force_One Tell me you don't have any concept of chemistry without telling me you have absolutely no concept of chemistry..
Gotta give Mike a raise. Seems like a great guy
👍👍
YES! More landfill videos
👍👍
Up here in my neck of the woods construction companies have to provide numerous bins for recycling containers metal,wood and cardboard on any job
That’s good
I have worked for a contractor digging cells for a landfills. We made the cells and lined them then covered the liner with clay. Daily there are tons and tons of trash dumped . And mountains of trash made. And covered with dirt.
You are in my top 5 you tubers tp watch including both of your channels. On the 29th of April I under go back surgery and I look forward to you videos during recovery. God Bless.
Good luck on your surgery friend!
Man Ryan that video was awesome, super informative, really enjoyed that, something extremely interesting about seeing the different things coming in to landfill, just seeing the the trucks an talking to everyone, thank you for sharing an have a good weekend and I look forward to seeing the next video 🇺🇲✊👌🤙💪
Awesome, thank you!
My area we have transfer stations. Lowest per ton tipping fee for me is $105. Upstate NY
PS: I’ve hauled thousands of dumpsters!
Wow!! Thanks for sharing
pallets 99% wood 1% nails recyclable 😁
👍
Here in Alabama wooden pallets are used again and some are recycled into building things. Cardboard in our larger towns and cities recycle cardboard. They have wire trailers stationed at certain area and businesses break it down and place it in trailers where it is picked up and bailed. That might be an interesting research and idea for your company .
Cool idea
I started out with nothing 56 years ago, I still have most of left. I have seen way to many people move up at a place and forget what it was like at the bottom. Keep up the good work.
Good stuff
Hi, I work for GFL in Swift Current,Saskatchewan Canada. In a landfill. I run a Cat 816F compactor, and a 744K John Deere wheel Loader. It’s amazing what people throw away. I like watching your videos of how you guys do things, in Georgia. We are just a small landfill.
It really is crazy, isn't it! Thanks for watching up there in Canada!
The main thing wrong with some business management is they have people like you a your position that can’t do the jobs they manage… we need more leaders like you sir!
Thanks!
Question sir.... Your guys on the tipping floor, Do you allow them to keep the tools and or any item they can use (not sell) that is not ready to be "trashed"?
They keep them for use at landfill. Can’t take home
Here in North Queensland Australia we are all but 100% recycling all waste. Looking at what you are putting in we would be recycling at least 60-70% of your 800t a day. Even our domestic kerbside waste we have 2 bins 1 for general waste and the other is recycling and that goes to a dedicated facility where it’s sorted manually and some automated for processing. All our building waste is recycled and the same for commercial waste.
👍👍
Great video, very interesting and informative, in a friendly and clear way. Mike UK
Nice work Ryan!
Thanks!
I am amazed at how much stuff is dumped. Your crew are very efficient, lucky you.
Thanks!
That sure made for great viewing bro but yes it's sad to see recyclable stuff in a land fill. Safe travels. Kn.
Thanks!
Ever thought about buying a Skip Loader to replace your backhoe? If you don’t know what a skip loader is there backhoes but without the backhoe in the back. So it will have a loader bucket in the front and a box blade in the rear. Could be handy grading your land fill. Cat, John Deere and Case make skip loaders
Cool idea!
Thanks Mike... Thanks for sharing!
The driver.....
Thanks for watching!
Id say about 60% of that load love these videos
How many metal dumpsters do you go through in a week?
Probably 3
I know employees respect their boss, and the boss respects them. You're more than a number. You're a human being, and sometimes managers or bosses
forget, and I think you're just disposable
👍👍
I have been running the landfill here in town for 14 years I am the one and only operator and with machines mostly older than I am or complete junk lol watching your videos really makes me want to make a video of my landfill , its pretty much the opposite of what you got going on you would prolly get a kick out of watchin it
You should do it!
I enjoy your RUclips channel. Could some of the cardboard be shredded and mixed with soil for top cover of the land fill ? Great channel. 👋👍
Possibly
Landfills are like Stone Age Wasting Resources
Yup
Thanks for sharing Ryan its wide open at c&c landfill buddy after seeing all the pallets and cardboard be good to see your sorting line when it’s ready 🍻🍻👍👍👍
Thanks for watching!
That floor looks like the 9 rat holes I was talking about the other day. Stay safe and have a cold Lite!
Lol
Busy day, Mr Digg
I reckon with the sorting line up and running 85% could've been recycled from that load
With the added bonus that some trash that's not worth sorting on the tipping floor becomes worth saving cos it's getting sorted out anyway
Good plan sir
And I hope you remember to tell Zak what a good guy Mike is 👍
My guess was ninety
I agree with you that that load looked like mostly new construction debris and 100% of that was recyclable.
good guess
No truer words were spoken. Admire your work ethics.
Thank you so much!!
70%+? That load got bigger the more I looked. Ryan, I have nothing but admiration for you and what you do. I hope you can get the sorting line up and running ASAP, 'cos you're loosing money as it stands, just in this load alone, and there were several loads that were, as you say 100%.So much wood, plastic, metal etc. Best wishes from UK
Thanks for watching!!
great walk around .and 45 %
Thanks. My guess was 90
❤ the video. We learn a lot. We all through trash away, but rarely anyone has a single thaught after.
Thanks!
awesome work.. just curious.. would it pay to have the excavator with the thumb pile the pallets & wood off to the side, like they do the scrap metal & when it piles up bring in the haul truck & move it to the chipper?.. another thing, not sure if your recycle place takes them, but some places take mattresses as scrap..metal keep up the great work!!
Not enough time
100% of the waste we create is recyclable, we just lack the will to recycle it all, I've often said we will eventually dig up these landfills when creating new resources out wieghs the cost of recovering them. The main problem is the environmental cost is not added into the price of mining the raw materisls.
I agree with you
Awesome video.
Thanks!
Mr Digg a important message
Why dont you place 2 bins at the tipping area
Use the Hyuandai with the Demo magnet grapple to pick threw
Wood Pallets and Metals
It will save you space at the landfill
In the long rung you can activate the soarting line
For now that grapple excavator with the demo magnet can fill 2 bins
One with metals and the other with
Wood pallets that end up for compaction
You can send one bin to Green go recycling for mulch production
One to the scrap yard
Hope you will consider and will take this method to save mother earth by saving the wood from the landfill area
With that graple excavator it can do 2 jobs
Filling up one bin with wood and other with metals.
Still not enough time before the next loads show up. Not worth the time
Amazed at all the cardboard and pallets that people are throwing out!
Mr.Digg must be sleeping on the job, METAL PALLETS are great for BIG rocks!!!
Dang it! You’re so right!!
Mr. Digg if you take care of your employees they will take care of you.
👍👍
Very good video
Thanks
Love it! Great job on explaining this! Thank you again!
My pleasure!
nice one thanks
Thanks!
good watch thank you
Thanks for watching!
Ya this is why I trash pick on a small scale. I save so much stuff that can be reused that is thrown out. Really what I throw away is pure junk. Everything else gets recycled. OR even scrapped for a few bucks
It’s hard not to want to save stuff!
Love it , live cam would be nice, lol
That would be cool
Landfill videos like this are cool thanks for sharing wat was your favorite job on the landfill drving the compactor looks like fun
My favorite is the compactor
@@TheRealMrDiGG gotcha
My local MRF has a 30 pole with a hook on it. It’s basically a 4x8 steel box beam with fish hook barb looking end. They attach it to the tipping floor loader to help pull loads out of the trucks when they get stuck. Gets a lot of use in the winter when our loads freeze in the box.
Would be interesting to hear from the Scale house what tonnage the recorded in the hour
👍👍
We had a company that would give us free dumpsters and would split the paper and cardboard 50/50 for the profits...
Guessing 68% recyclable in that load
I say 90
Wow! Like you say, it’s too bad the recyclables pricing doesn’t support sorting and marketing these materials! Maybe some day.
90 percent recycling
That customer needs a cardboard bailer.
Depending upon whether you use tons or cubic yards. Tonnage is 80% and cubic yards would be 6
75%
My guess was ninety
I would love to have that mag bucket I didn't even know that was a thing
It’s awesome
Hey Ryan I can agree with you on temps coming humidity got to 97 here today we screwed for the summer on the load you ask about I'm going to say around 87% of load would be recycled and you never said a More truer statement than if a business has a good manager you will have great employees and with your employees seeing you out there working and doing what they do rather than just jumping down there throat this will gain you more respect from your employees than anyone can ever imagine good job brother stay cool we catch you on your next video
My guess was ninety
Always a good time at the landfill
Hey paul!!!
I think the working world would be a much nicer place if the university business professors studied your management techniques and passed them along to their students.
Thanks
Every owner or boss should work from the bottom up, so they see the reality of how the business works.
👍👍
I think we would want some wood and cardboard in the mix to help some of the landfill content to return to the earth. You think?? Anyway, good work, guys, keep it up!!
Yes it does help on a small scale. Thanks for watching!
I always enjoy your videos, viewing from County SLIGO Ireland 🇮🇪 😎🤠🚲📷✍
Thanks buddy!
Hey Ryan, how about come over here and teach Berkeley county how a landfill should be ran. Our road in and out is terrible, tipping floor is unacceptable and trash scattered from the hill to the scale
I’d say at least 50% on recyclables in that one roll off.
I remember when I was young. My mom worked at a grocery store. They had an incinerator and cardboard compactor
👍👍
Yellow parking poles-Bollards
That’s the word!
great video - thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
The landfill I dump at has 4100 gradall to to clean those compactor containers. They add a 5 foot extension on the gradall boom. Good luck
Cool!
Another great video sir!
I appreciate that
Hi, could you use the worthless cardboard in your mulch yard? Love the sound of those big engines even though I love electric kit!
Great idea!
Up here in the northeast (New England) a lot of the landfills are ash only now but they sort threw all the ash from the incinerators where they burn the trash and pull out all the metals then the ash goes in the landfill always wondered about this kind of landfill though because there are lot of old quarrys where you could set up something like this sorting lines sort out metal and wood make mulch like you do and sell the scrap metal out of it turn in all the other plastics and cardboard to sell in bails where you are so close to ports or rail lines / yards be good use of the land instead of just being a big open pit and would supply jobs for a long time before it fills up say someone opened a quarry mined it all out then swap over to something like this even on a small scale thats jobs for 50 to 100 years maybe even more
Cool info, thanks for sharing!
love the landfill videos
Thanks
I used to haul dirt and mulch to my local landfill. It's crazy what some people throw away
it really is!
Has to be recycled here in uk very few land fill sites now
👍
Good stuff Ryan!! I'd love to work there but it would be a bad idea because I'd want to bring crap home everyday!!
Lol
It used to normal in my past for not tasking any worker to do a job that you're not fully capable and experienced in doing yourself. Sadly many modern industries have moved away from that style of management and as a result their workers eventually lost most / all the respect for the management in those industries. Stand in their shoes and know how tough it is, then task and reward accordingly if you want to develop a good working relationship that benefits the company and its staff...
100% agree! Thanks for taking the time to comment!!
Ah the day at the "dump". I live in a community that has single source recycleables which is nice for the homeowner. It is collected here then hauled 50m to a sorting center. There is a CAT plant here and they are assembling some compactors in the 980 class.
Good show. I'm sure it wouldn't take long to cure ya of "hoarding"..... LOL
Very cool, thanks for sharing!
Oh wow!
👍
I wonder if you put a spotter camera over your scales if you could redirect the wood heavy loads to a separate tipping floor. Give it a quick pick out with an excavator.
we have cameras but soooo many trucks coming through and you never know if trash is on the bottom
@@TheRealMrDiGG I'll definitely be waiting with anticipation for you to get your picking line set up. Looking from the outside in, I feel your pain watching everything thst could be recycled getting buried. But I also understand the infrastructure to divert it is very costly and the commodities won't give you a good ROI yet.
60% all those pallets are premium wood for dyed mulch
👍👍
If only we could sort at the source. That would make all the difference. Wood, cardboard, metals
Exactly!
Bollards.... and the big black plastic square was the base to the plastic storage building
That’s the word I was looking for!
50 percent Hello from Texas
My guess was ninety
Great video!! I think those yellow plastic things are bollard covers.
I think so too!
Did you save all that high voltage cable and recycle it???
Nope wasn’t worth it
Our waste price for building materials is 90 bucks a ton at the landfill …55 a ton for concrete
Wow!
@@TheRealMrDiGG Cardboard has to be separated also
I took my old mattress to the scrapyard. I took off all the padding material first, but all the springs got recycled
👍
Parts of Australia at our waste management facilities we also have a shed and yard with secondary bits and pieces of windows, timber and tool that can be purchased. your facility would be over time with all of that stuff coming in.
What happens if you get a fire? lithium ion batteries are a big concern now days
