"Where does it actually go?" Every customer asks this, and it deserves a real answer.
Stop one: sorting
Before anything goes anywhere, the load gets sorted. A well-run operation pulls out donatable furniture, metals, electronics, cardboard, and what's truly going to disposal.
The donation route
Furniture and household goods go to local charities — furniture banks, Habitat ReStore, veterans' organizations. You get an itemized receipt within days.
The metal stream
Appliances, grills, water heaters, and shed panels go to scrap metal facilities. Steel and aluminum are endlessly recyclable.
Electronics: the certified stream
All electronics go to certified e-waste recyclers who recover metals and contain hazardous components.
What actually goes to disposal
After donation, metal, and e-waste — often 30-50% of the volume. Never zero, but meaningfully less than a straight landfill run.
