I am not sure what happened with the weather.  We went from monsoons to fall weather.

Last week we launched our new website.  I hope everyone had a chance to take a look.  We received some very positive feedback.  Thank you to Jennifer Smith for her help with the website.

Last week we shredded 9200 lbs. of paper and recycled 1300 lbs. of cardboard.  We also completed 27500 units.  This week we have two purges scheduled.  If you are not aware of what a purge is, well I am glad you asked.  A purge is a pickup that is much larger than a normal bin pickup.  Purges can range from 200 lbs. to over 20,000 lbs.
 
I would also like to remind you that our next drop off is scheduled for Wed. 8/4 from 9-2.  Be sure to look for the blue arrow.

I heard a rumor the other day…..someone told me it was summertime.

With all the rain we have been getting, it feels like May showers or just a lot of rain.
Last week we were able to ship out a load of 12,000 lbs. of plastic wrap.

 

We also shredded 9000 lbs. of paper, recycled 2200 lbs. of cardboard and finished @16,000 units.

 

By far the most exciting thing happening this week is the new Firelands Local website.  It will be going live any day now.  I would love for you to check it out and give me some feedback.  James@firelandslocal.com

 

We confirmed 3 upcoming shred purges and are in the process of bidding on a new labor job.

 

Have a wonderful week and make sure you check out our new website.

We also processed 3800 pounds of cardboard.
