The Lancaster County Resource Recovery Facility, located on the banks of the Susquehanna River in Bainbridge, PA, began commercial operation in May 1991. The 56-acre facility, operating as Reworld Lancaster, Inc., processes 1,200 tons per day of solid waste, which generates 35.7 megawatts of renewable energy. The facility is a "zero discharge" facility, meaning that all the wastewater generated on-site is treated and reused in the waste management process. Reworld Lancaster also uses secondary sewage treatment runoff from a nearby treatment plant for all of its process water. Reworld has an operating agreement with the facility's owner, the Lancaster County Solid Waste Management Authority.

What should I know before contacting a waste company?
It helps to have a basic idea of what you need help with before reaching out. Knowing the type of waste, how much there is, and whether you need pickup, drop-off, or something more involved can make the conversation a lot easier.
What information should I have ready before asking for service?
It is helpful to know what kind of waste you have, about how much there is, and where the service is needed. If the job has a timeline, access issue, or special handling concern, that is good to mention too.
