In
Baltimore
County
residentially,
we

around
four
hundred
and
twenty
thousand
tons
of
trash
a
year.
Some
of
the
things
that
we
offer
that
people
might
not
normally
know
is
that,
besides
what
users
have
for
a
curb
site
where
your
residential

Residents
come
in,
we
check
and
see
if
they
we
checked,
our
ID
make
sure
they're
a
Baltimore
County
resident,
and
then
we
direct
them
to
the
proper
disposal
of
something
site
or
whatever
they
got
recyclables.
It
goes
over
here.
If
they're
in
a
car
and
SUV,
we
let
them
dump
their
trash
and
off
straight
ahead.
Metal
recycling
it
over
here
if
they
got
wood
and
all
I
got
to
pick
up
drumming
construction,
debris
and
stuff
like
that.
We
stand
them
down
to
the
scale.
So.
A
E
Material
arrives
here,
and
this
is
where
they're
actually
the
D
manufacturing
of
the
product
start.
We
start
subjugating
all
the
materials
out.
We
start
separating
out
the
paper
products,
the
aluminum's,
the
the
metals
the
glass
first
area
will
see
it
is
on
our
priests
or
area.
That's
the
first
place
people
can
address
it,
the
trucks
offloaded
on
our
tip
and
floor.
It's
a
load
o
conveyor
with
a
wheel,
loader,
and
then
it
comes
up
to
the
pre-stored
and
that's
where
they'll
remove
any
items
that
don't
belong.
E
Last
year
we
crush
all
the
glass
out.
We
do
not
color
separate
it.
We
use
it
either
goes
back
to
a
bottle.
Manufacturer
goes
back
as
an
aggregate
use
and
then
what's
left,
we
have
an
optics
order
that
will
shoot
out
all
the
plastic
it'll
optically
scan
it
as
it
goes,
underneath
of
it
and
use
little
air
Jets
to
segregate
it
out.
Many
other
items
are
left
over.
That's
really
the
kind
of
the
whole
process
in
a
nutshell,
maybe
over
simplified
it.
But
you
know
we
get
a
chance
to
see
it.
E
It's
a
pretty
neat
process
after
it's
all
sorted,
it
drops
into
bunkers,
and
then
we
bail
it
as
we
bail
out
your
compressed
into
a
large
cube
and
once
we
make
the
cubes
out
of
it,
then
it
will
take
the
market
for
shipment
load
it
on
trucks.
Here
that
will
go
on
trucks
for
domestic
mills.
It
will
go
export
out
of
the
Port
of
Baltimore
to
you
know
the
Far
East
Asia
China
India.
You
know
a
lot
of
different
places.
It
really
enters
a
world
economy.
F
In
my
community
can
do
it
I'm
very
happy
with
the
new
initiative,
it's
it's
very
nice
to
be
able
to
do
the
combined
recycling
of
both
paper
and
the
plastics
and
cans
and
stuff
its
list
rush.
It's
more
recycling,
we're
finding
that
it's
actually
cut
down
on
our
trash,
a
fair
amount.
By
being
able
to
recycle
more
of
the
plastics
we.
