Recycle Update


Attachment III

Ashland Sanitary & Recycling
Recycle Update


The Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) requires that waste sheds report as a single unit. Ashland Sanitary & Recycling reports with Rogue Disposal and Southern Oregon Sanitation for the Jackson County waste shed.

The DEQ requires that the Jackson County waste shed divert 40% of its waste by the year 2005. In 2002, Jackson County exceeded that goal and diverted 44.1% of its overall waste.

The following is an update from Ashland Sanitary & Recycling on the steady increase of recycling at the transfer station. There was a 205% increase in recycling brush, lumber and metals between 2000 and 2003.

Brush, Lumber and Metals
2000 2001 2002 2003
892 tons 1498 tons 2543 tons 2725 tons


Recycling of yard debris increased 20% from 2002 to 2003.

Yard Debris
