Detroit Opens Waste Management Facility

by Brian Yalung on Wednesday, June 17th, 2009

89478To help in the waste management efforts, Detroit announces the opening of a 63,000 sq. ft. facility in Lynch Road that will reportedly manage 150 tons of recyclables a day. Approximately $2 million was needed to renovate and purchase equipment to address the growing waste problems over at Detroit.

“Waste Management’s Detroit Recycling Center is an example of how Detroit is transforming into an economically diverse metropolitan area,” Mayor Bing said. “The company was able to take a large vacant commercial building and turned it into a sustainable business operation.”

Managing waste has become a growing concern not only in Detroit but the whole world. While most countries have come up with their own waste and recycling centers, this development promises to be a big boost and hopefully address the trash problems while encouraging recycling efforts as well.
