Wow, Morton Township you sure had a lot of “junk to dump” today. Together we filled seven 30 yard dumpsters, four garbage trucks, and overloaded our local scrappers. We had 350 cars pass through during our four hour period, that’s a car ever 41 seconds! We could not do this without the muscle provided by the Chippewa Hills Warrior Wrestling team and the traffic control provided by Morton Township Fire & Rescue staff. At the same time we processed over 100 cars for our normal recycle traffic.

Thanks to all that made today a succes!!!
