Waste-Cover
 WASTE-COVER is an alternate daily landfill cover manufactured from recycled paper and wood, polymers, enzyme complex, biological stimulants, and other proprietary ingredients. Waste-Cover helps breakdown the garbage faster and helps alleviate odors. All ingredients are not-toxic and biodegradable. Lend Mother Nature a helping hand, make your landfill more efficient by using Waste-Cover.
Waste-Cover, (one bag system) or Enviro-Set and Enviro-Gro (a two bag system) has been approved for use as a routine Alternative Daily Cover to be applied over exposed compacted waste material at the end of each working day to minimize vector breeding and animal attraction, control leachate and erosion, reduce fire hazard potential, minimize blowing litter, reduce noxious odors, and provide an overall aesthetic appearance to the landfill.
Waste Cover is more than just a cosmetic cover. The breakdown of organic
materials is advanced through the stimulation of the microbial activity
already present in the landfill materials. The odor control materials
have been added to combat the inherent problem of "smell" existing in
most landfills. These smells come from the never-ending process of the
breakdown of the organic materials within the cell confines.
All ingredients are not-toxic and biodegradable. Lend Mother Nature a helping hand, make
your landfill more efficient by using Waste-Cover.
Saving Airspace
The life of any landfill depends on the remaining permitted available airspace. Each cubic yard of dirt that is used for daily cover results in a permanent loss of revenue on space that can not be sold. Spray on slurries do not consume airspace and it meets or exceeds all of the performance criteria for Alternative Daily Cover material as required by the Standard Guide for Evaluation and Selection of Alternative Daily Cover (ADC's) for Sanitary Landfills (D-6523).
Advantages of Using a two bag system as an Alternative Daily Cover
- Working face size is not as critical as with tarps where you have to match the working face size to the size and configuration of the tarps.
- Simple to install in all weather conditions where tarps are difficult to install in windy conditions.
- Employees do not have to walk over the working face.
- No removal required the following morning.
- The gentle blue color makes it aesthetically pleasing and easy to see what has been covered.
- Requires 1 or 2 employees to mix and apply.
- Costs pennies per square foot to use.
- Conserves landfill space.
- Non-toxic and biodegradable.
- Non-flammable.
- Hydro seeding equipment can be used for other things at the landfill.
- Hydro Seeding
- Watering for newly seeded areas
- Fire fighting
- Dust Control
- Washing tracked equipment
