Garbage Men & Women Doing Good in the Community
Here you will find a selection of our stories from the communities we serve and the environmental heroes who are part of the Meridian Waste team.
Boys of all ages love receiving new toys! Joe Gustaf, General Manager and Director of Landfill Operations, sent this sunrise picture of his brand new trailer tipper just installed at Lunenburg Landfill.
A tipper is an industrial piece of equipment that efficiently unloads solid waste from the trailer (after being detached from the truck tractor) into the working face of the landfill. The tipper is mounted on a movable base so that it can be relocated as needed as the working face of the landfill designated for daily solid waste disposal migrates over the landfill.
The benefit of the tipper is that it unloads waste 5x faster than the option of a walking floor trailer that unload solid waste using a hydraulically-powered floor made of slats that move in a specific sequence to push the material out the rear of the trailer.
Like any proud “papa,” we congratulate Joe on his newest piece of equipment.
