LCO Recycling, Transfer Station to Open Spring 2014


By on 12:37 PM

The LCO Recycling Center/Transfer Station is scheduled to open this Spring. The brand new facility is located near the junction of Round Lake School Road and Hwy “B.” LCO Development is finishing up installing doors and windows and constructing the mezzanine; all power and plumbing has been roughed in at the facility. An oil furnace is being installed by Bodies Mechanical which will run on used motor oil taken at the facility free of charge.

It will still act as a functioning transfer site similar to the Transfer Station on Hwy “NN.” However, recyclables brought into the center will be sorted, baled and stored on site. Recyclables will be taken free of charge; solid waste will be accepted for a fee along with other larger items like furniture and white goods. The goal is to have all Tribal entities utilize the facility to offset their current disposal fees. Eventually the facility will purchase aluminum from customers and other scrap metal items as well. There are many other exciting ideas for the business. We will be updating the progress of the building throughout the Winter months. Stay Tuned!
