Waste Management - GI Industries - Keeping Our Communities Clean

Clean diesel technology will eliminate air pollution from 90 percent – or about 13 million – of today's trucks and buses.

The Simi Landfill & Recycling Center powers 2,500 homes each day with two landfill gas-to-energy generators using methane gas.

Clean diesel engines and fuels will prevent nearly 8,300 premature deaths, along with tens of thousands of cases of bronchitis, asthma and other respiratory ailments.

Throughout the U.S., particulate matter will be reduced by 250,000 tons, and NOx by 4 million tons every year.

In California alone, particulate matter will be reduced by 110,000 tons, and NOx by 2.6 million tons every year.

Clean Up From the Holidays Safely – Both for the Environment and Your Protection

As the holidays approach, we want to advise all our customers to be proactive about recycling holiday shopping catalogs and taking care when recycling items that contain personal information.

Most junk mail, including solicitations and catalogues, can be recycled in residents’ recycling bins. But remember to be careful when recycling sensitive information. Be sure to tear receipts, billing statements or credit card offers before placing them in your recycling bin and remember to put any loose shredded paper in a paper bag.

Any items that contain account numbers or Social Security numbers should be destroyed before disposal. In order to reduce your risk for identity theft – and also cut down on unwanted mail or solicitations – you can also opt out of receiving credit offers. Contact the three major credit bureaus at 1-888-5-OPTOUT (567-8688) for more information.
