  18. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<img src="/img/roofing_dumpster_rental_roof_shingles_construction.jpg" alt="Roofing Dumpster Rental, Roof Shingles Construction Disposal" align="left" /><p>Even once you’ve nailed down the final strip of shingles, there’s still work to be done. Getting rid of the old roofing shingles can be quite a chore. The right roll-off dumpster can definitely come in handy. This guide will focus on the important aspects of renting a dumpster for shingle roofing projects. Other useful roofing and dumpster related information: We’ll cover the cost of renting a dumpster, how to estimate the weight of scrap roofing shingles, how to save money on dumpster rentals, and more. Whether you’re a do-it-yourselfer or a contractor working on a roofing project, the information below is sure to help take the guesswork out of renting a roll-off container for shingle roof replacements. The type of roofing shingle matters Not all roofing shingles are created equal, and not just in terms of quality and appearance. The two main types of roofing shingles on the market are 3-tab asphalt shingles and architectural-style shingles. You most likely have one or the other. 3-tab shingles : This is a more traditional shingle you’d find on many homes. It’s a more budget-friendly option. It’s also a relatively lightweight shingle, so it’s easier to stay under the dumpster rental company’s weight limit compared to premium-style shingles. Architectural shingles: This is a newer type of roofing shingle that gives a more “premium” look to roofs. If this is the type of shingle you’re disposing of, be aware that these shingles are heavy compared to basic 3-tab shingles. Be careful not to underestimate the weight of these shingles—overage costs can rack up pretty quickly. (Read about overage charges below.) Roofing “square” vs. Square footage In the roofing biz, “square” is the standard unit of measurement. One square is equal to 100 square feet. For example, a 2, 000 square foot roof is equal to 20 square. How much does a bundle of shingles weight? Roofing shingles are generally sold in bundles. Three bundles is equal to one square. Each bundle is relatively heavy, weighing in at 60 to 80 lbs. depending upon the type of shingle. Knowing approximately how many squares of shingles you have to dispose of makes it easier to communicate that info to the dumpster rental company, who can then recommend the right sized container. How much does a square of shingles weigh? A square of shingles weighs 250 lbs. to 400 lbs. depending upon the type of shingle (see below). An important thing to keep in mind is that many roofs have multiple layers of shingles, so you must factor that in when determining weight and choosing a dumpster. For example, a 20 square roof with two layers of shingles will actually produce shingle waste equal to 40 squares. Know how many layers of existing shingles are on your roof prior to ordering the dumpster to ensure you choose the right one and avoid having to get a second dumpster later. Still unsure of what size dumpster you need? 3-tab shingles weigh up to 250 lbs per square Roofing Squares (3-Tabs) Shingle Debris Weight Ideal Dumpster Size 10 1.25 tons 10 yard 20 2.5 tons 30 3.75 tons 15 yard 40 5 tons 20 yard 50 6.25 tons 20 yard or bigger 60 7.5 tons 30 yard or bigger These dumpster size suggestions are based on capacity alone and don’t factor in weight allowances. Dumpster rental companies vary when it comes to included weight allowances. For example, a dumpster rental company may rent a 20-yard container for $400 with an included 4-ton weight allowance, while a competing company rents the same size container for $300 but only includes 2 tons of weight. ***To avoid potential overage charges, always ask the rental provider about the container’s tonnage limits before renting a dumpster. Architectural shingles weigh up to 400 lbs per square Architectural-style roofing shingles are on average about 40% heavier compared to 3-tab shingles, so you’ll need a slightly larger dumpster to accommodate the extra bulk. Roofing Squares (Architectural) 2 tons 4 tons 12 yard 6 tons 8 tons 10 tons 30 yard 12 tons Dumpster prices: Cost factors and advice for saving on a rental The cost to rent a dumpster is highly variable and depends on many factors, like your geographic location, container size, weight allowance, duration of the rental, and more. Examples of rental costs for 10 yard bins in different parts of the country: **Overage charges vary by location but can be as high as $100 per ton for going over the weight allowance. The cost of renting a larger container (e.g., 20, 30, and 40 yards) is roughly $50 to $100 more for each 10-cubic-yard increment above that of a 10 yard dumpster. For instance, a 30-yard container in Boston, MA would cost roughly $425 to $525.</p>]]></content:encoded>

You could be exploring the old town, scouting the city from the glorious talons of Edinburgh castle before venturing into the ominous Dungeons for a fright fest. Or perhaps your interest lies more in the new town, with its huge shopping district surrounding Princes Street and rows upon rows of bars and restaurants, not to mention the two impressive football stadiums in Edinburgh — Tynecastle and Easter Road — depending on whether you follow Hearts or Hibs. For a city as beautiful and as historic as Auld Reekie, thousands of cogs must turn on a daily basis to ensure the area operates to its usual high standard. Whether this is the tram system that runs through the city centre, the emergency services to keep us all safe and well, or the hundreds of small businesses working tirelessly to give Lothians the high quality of life they’re used to. One of the more uncelebrated elements of the city is its waste management and recycling thanks to its commitment to a zero waste policy. With the number of bars, restaurants and retail outlets blanketing the city centre, collection and disposal of waste material must be regimented, with just a small deviation in services or collection times potentially causing a huge disruption to trade. Public health is also a huge consideration, and while Edinburgh receives high praise for the quality of its public parks and facilities, to the extent that both the old and new town are listed as a prestigious UNESCO World Heritage Site, this would soon diminish if sanitation procedures began to fail. How we can help While waste services operate to a high standard in Edinburgh, some businesses find that they have an excess of waste and experience difficulties managing it between collection dates. This can be particularly problematic for restaurants as, with a high volume of food waste, litter runs the risk of stinking out the area surrounding the establishment and even attracting pests — a food establishment’s worst nightmare. For businesses that experience this problem, we can assist you in the collection and disposal of your waste. Whether it’s food waste, vegetation, or biological materials, we have the facilities to collect rubbish on demand or to a schedule that fits your convenience. Business Waste offers commercial waste services for business and commercial organisations throughout the Edinburgh area.</p>]]></content:encoded>

  36. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<img src="/img/vital_waste_graphics_grid_arendal.jpg" alt="Vital Waste Graphics | GRID-Arendal" align="left" /><p>Today, the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE’s) Bioenergy Technologies Office (BETO) announced the publication of a report, titled . The report is the first comprehensive assessment of the resource potential and technology opportunities provided by feedstocks, including wastewater treatment-derived sludge and biosolids, animal manure, food waste, inedible fats and greases, biogas, and carbon dioxide streams. These feedstocks can be converted into renewable natural gas, diesel, and aviation fuels, or into valuable bioproducts. Complementary to the, this new resource assessment, conducted by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory and Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, concludes that wet and gaseous organic waste streams represent a substantial and underutilized set of feedstocks for biofuels and biopower. The analysis found that the United States has the potential to use 77 million dry tons of wet waste per year, which would generate about 1, 079 trillion British thermal units (Btu) of energy. Also, gaseous feedstocks (which cannot be “dried” and therefore cannot be reported in dry tons) and other feedstocks assessed in the report could produce an additional 1, 260 trillion Btu of energy—bringing the total to more than 2.3 quadrillion Btu annually. For perspective, in 2015, the United States’ total primary energy consumption was about 97.7 quadrillion Btu. BETO is exploring of a broad range of possibilities to identify the potential for producing market-relevant platforms. Many waste-to-energy technologies are at an early stage and, therefore, could potentially benefit from DOE’s Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program, which increases U.S. private-sector commercialization of innovations to build a strong national economy. SBIR technical topic areas for both the fiscal year 2016 (topics 10 b &amp; c) and fiscal year 2017 (topics 14 a &amp; b) included aspects of converting waste to energy. Not only are wet and gaseous waste streams available now and unlikely to diminish in the near future, finding a beneficial use for them often helps to address the unique and local challenges of disposing of them. Alternative strategies are increasingly necessary due to decreasing landfill capacity and stringent disposal regulations. Also, these waste streams are often located where energy is in highest demand. For these reasons, waste feedstocks could help jump-start the U.S. bioeconomy via niche markets. Research, development, and scale-up of technologies to utilize waste resources is part of BETO’s work to develop domestic, sustainable, cost-competitive biofuels and bioproducts.</p>]]></content:encoded>

  45. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<img src="/img/garbage_disposal_waste_management_franke_kitchen.jpg" alt="Garbage Disposal | Waste Management | Franke Kitchen Systems" align="left" /><p>Why is Water Leaking Out Of The Bottom Of My Garbage Disposal? So, you’ve noticed water under your kitchen sink that seems to be coming out of your garbage disposal? Here’s some things you should know: The leak could be coming from multiple places on your disposal While the water draining from your disposal may look like it’s coming out right from the bottom, sometimes that’s not the case. The leak could be coming from one of 4 common areas. on your garbage disposal, as pictured here: The sink flange — where the sink and the disposal unit directly connect The dishwasher hose — where the hose and the disposal connect The drain — where the drainage pipe and the disposal connect The bottom — water actually draining from the very bottom of the disposal The easiest way to find the source of the leak The best way to discover the actual source of the leak is simple. You can do it yourself without the need for too many tools. Just follow these steps: Unplug your garbage disposal. If the area around the electrical socket is in any way damp, turn off the breaker for that section of the house beforehand. Don’t risk getting shocked. Remove everything from under the sink and place a bucket, deep-bottom pan, or small trash can underneath the disposal to catch any water that may come out. No sense cleaning up twice. Get the plug for your sink and place it in the drain. Fill the sink with water until it’s a little less than halfway full (not even close to a majority of this will be coming out of the leak, don’t worry). Then, place a few drops of food coloring in the water. The color doesn’t matter, just so long as it makes the water stand out against the black of your disposal unit. Observe if there are any leaks coming from under the sink. If there are, you’ve found the problem: the sink flange. If there are no visible leaks, remove the plug from the sink and use a flashlight to observe where the water is coming from (checking the 4 places in the image above). The source of the leak usually determines how bad the problem is Based on the location of the leak, here’s the usual problem and fix: Sink flange (1) Likely problem: If the leak is visible before you unplug the drain, it usually means the seal between the sink and disposal has broken. Fix: You need to detach the disposal from the sink, remove the plumber’s putty and then reseal the flange. Dishwasher hose (2) or drain line (3) Likely problem: The seal between the disposal and one of these lines is likely broken. Fix: You’ll need to replace the seal. This will vary depending on the disposal unit you have and the plumbing in your home. Bottom of disposal (4) Likely problem: Broken seals inside of the garbage disposal itself. Fix: You can replace the seals inside of the disposal. However, if one is broken now, it won’t be long before another wears out and needs to be replaced. So it’s usually more economical and easier to replace the garbage disposal.</p>]]></content:encoded>

(U.S. EPA) In many parts of the U.S., including Ohio, underground injection of fracking fluids (literally injecting the wastewater underground into 'pools') is the most common method of disposing of fluids or other substances from shale gas extraction operations. Disposal of the flowback and produced water by underground injection is regulated by the U.S. EPA, and in Ohio, overseen by the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR). See a map of Ohio’s brine injection wells here. Despite current regulations, there are serious concerns with the use of deep injection wells, including potential for contaminated waste fluids to migrate and deep injection wells to trigger seismic activity. Youngstown Earthquake State officials actually closed disposal wells after a magnitude 4.0 earthquake hit Youngstown, Ohio, on December 31, 2011. This was the eleventh earthquake to strike the area in 2011, an area that was not previously considered seismically active.</p>]]></content:encoded>

  72. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<img src="/img/redbridge_seeks_residual_waste_restriction.jpg" alt="Redbridge seeks residual waste restriction - letsrecycle.com" align="left" /><p>By subscribing to the garden waste collection service you will receive 5 rolls of 10 biodegradable sacks which you fill and we collect once every 2 weeks from your address from April to October. The service costs £50 a year and is the same price for all residents. The sacks have a capacity of around 90 litres each and will be delivered directly to your home. If you are not in, we can post them through your letter box. The sacks are not limited to be used within the year they are bought. They can be rolled over to the following year if unused, but you will still be required to pay the full price for the service the following year in order to have them collected. Waste collection We will collect your full sacks from where we collect your normal household rubbish. There is no limit to how many garden waste sacks you can put out for collection at once. We will collect your sacks every 2 weeks on the day after your normal rubbish collection. You will not be able to book a collection. See our waste collection calendar for further details Visit the Garden waste in black bags will not be collected as part of your normal refuse collection. Missed collections You can report a missed collection by phoning our contact centre on 020 8554 5000. We are working on providing a service to report missed garden waste collections online. Cost The service costs £50 a year. The new paid for service is being introduced as previous funding from the Department of Communities and Local Government has run out. The money helped us extend the service over the winter back in 2013, but now we need to adapt to this and the other financial pressures we face. We didn’t want to remove the service because we know residents value it, so we made it a payable service to run during the times of the year when there is the greatest need. Subscribe to the service There will be a 75p surcharge for paying with a credit card. We are billed for the use of credit card payment which is why there is a surcharge. To avoid it you can pay with a debit card instead of a credit card. We will aim to deliver your sacks to the address registered for collection within 10 working days after you have paid for the service. If you are not in, we will post them through your letter box. Order sacks You can call us on 020 8554 5000 to order more sacks in packs of 10 for £10 and we will deliver them to the address registered for collection. We are working on providing a service to order more sacks online. Storing your sacks Store your sacks somewhere dry and out of direct sunlight. This will ensure they don’t start to break down before you start using them. Once the sack is filled with garden waste, please store it somewhere dry and out of direct sunlight before you are ready to place them out for collection. Green waste such as grass trimmings, plant cuttings, and weeds are ideal for composting alongside waste from the home such as shredded paper, cardboard, and egg shells. Composting is great for the environment and is a fantastic natural way to dispose of garden waste. We’d like to encourage more residents to find out the benefits of composting. Remember that you must dispose of all your rubbish responsibly. Dumping rubbish is a serious offence and those caught fly tipping face a £400 on-the-spot fine. You can also take garden waste for free to any of the following East London Waste Authority (ELWA) Refuse &amp; Recycling Centres, including: Chigwell Road, Redbridge Jenkins Lane, Newham Frizlands Lane, Barking &amp; Dagenham Gerpins Lane, Havering</p>]]></content:encoded>

  90. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<img src="/img/6_of_7_photos_pictures_view.jpg" alt="6 of 7 Photos & Pictures – View Brooklyn Medical Waste Disposal" align="left" /><p>Waste Management has been selected by New York's Department of Sanitation (DSNY) for a new $3.3 billion contract, ensuring that landfills will continue to play a large role in the city's long-term waste strategy as it works toward a goal of "zero waste" by 2030. The 20-year deal involves shipping containerized waste via barges from two DSNY marine transfer stations (MTS) in Brooklyn — Hamilton Avenue and Southwest Brooklyn — to rail connection for long-distance export. Waste Management already has contracts with DSNY at three local rail transfer stations and this new contract will put them in charge of shipping a large majority of New York's residential waste out of the city. This is part of an ongoing overhaul of DSNY's infrastructure that will decrease the use of private transfer stations while significantly increasing export costs. Timeline This particular MTS contract was previously awarded to Progressive Waste Solutions in 2015, but the company withdrew in May 2016. The pending Waste Connections merger and ongoing issues with the Seneca Meadows Landfill in upstate New York were cited as the main factors. Rather than soliciting new bids, DSNY decided to review submissions from the original 2014 request for proposals. At the time Waste Dive confirmed that Waste Management and Covanta — both current export vendors – were among these bidders. It is unclear whether any other companies were considered. Republic Services was also an existing export vendor, but did not confirm whether it submitted a bid for this contract. In October, multiple sources told Waste Dive that Waste Management was the leading contender due to cost considerations. DSNY subsequently confirmed that it was negotiating with one vendor, but declined to disclose further details. Later that month, DSNY posted a notice in New York's official city record stating that a hearing would be held in November to discuss a proposed contract with Waste Management. The contract was for "transport and disposal of containerized waste" from the two Brooklyn marine transfer stations. The 20-year deal, with the option of two five-year renewals, was not to exceed $3.3 billion. As of publication, this contract has not officially been registered with the city comptroller's office and DSNY has not responded to a request for comment. Based on a transcript of Waste Management's quarterly earnings call on Feb. 16, Waste Management CEO Jim Fish cited New York among recent contract "wins" that would require capital expenditures in 2017. Later in the call, Fish went on to say that the Brooklyn MTS contract would start in July and spending had already begun on the necessary containers and other equipment required to operate the two stations. As described in the call, waste will be going to the company's High Acres Landfill in western New York and Atlantic Waste Disposal landfill in Virginia. According to Fish, once both marine transfer stations are operational Waste Management will be handling an estimated 1.8 million tons of material for DSNY. This includes the company's rail export contracts at Harlem River Yards in the Bronx, Varick Street in Brooklyn and Review Avenue in Queens. DSNY currently collects more than 3 million tons of refuse from residents each year. Big picture This contract is a notable milestone in DSNY's long-term waste export strategy, though it also highlights how complex New York's system has become. Export costs have been on a steady rise since the city's last landfill closed in 2001. Based on the latest preliminary budget figures, waste export could cost more than $392 million in FY18 and that number is projected to increase as more marine transfer stations become operational.</p>]]></content:encoded>

  99. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<img src="/img/madar_al_kone_fm.jpg" alt="Madar Al KONE - fm" align="left" /><p>Mix up only enough pesticide for the job. Use up small amounts of excess pesticides - apply them according to the directions on the label. If you cannot use it, ask your neighbors if they have a similar pest control problem and can use it up. If any remaining pesticide cannot be used properly, safely dispose of pesticides to protect people, pets, and the environment: Follow all disposal instructions on the pesticide label. Check with your local solid waste management authority, environmental agency or health department to find out whether your community has a household hazardous waste collection program or a similar program for getting rid of unwanted, leftover pesticides. These authorities can also inform you of any local requirements for pesticide waste disposal. To identify your local solid waste agency, Search the internet or look in the government section of your phone book under categories such as solid waste, public works, or garbage, trash or refuse collection for your town, city or county. Think before disposing of extra pesticides and containers: Never reuse empty pesticide containers. Pesticide residues can contaminate the new contents and cause serious harm. Never pour pesticides down the sink, toilet, sewer, or street drain. Many municipal drinking water and wastewater treatment systems are not equipped to remove all pesticides. If pesticides reach waterways, they can harm fish, plants, and other living things. State and local pesticide disposal laws may be stricter than the federal requirements on the label . Check with your state or local agencies before disposing of extra pesticides.</p>]]></content:encoded>
