Green Waste Recycle Yard

GWRY recovers urban logs from the Greater San Francisco Bay Area and recycles urban logs that are destined to the West Contra Costa Sanitary Landfill and other nearby California landfills. Tree service operators and contractors, urban landscape designers and planners, various public works departments within the greater San Francisco bay area such as Caltrans, large property owners such as California State University, University of California, homeowners’ associations, cemetery operators, homeowners, etc. are typical customers. Storm damaged trees are a natural source of material. Most urban trees are removed because they are dead or dying or because of “hardscape” damage i.e. tree roots that damage sidewalks, buildings, underground pipes, etc. 

GWRY receives urban tree logs from our own parent company, The Professional Tree Care Company , as well as from similar tree services, landscaping contractors, commercial facilities managers and municipalities throughout the greater San Francisco Bay area. GWRY carries forward the Bay Area urban tree milling tradition of PAL Foundation, the East Bay Conservation Corp and New Life Millworks.

Green Waste Recycle Yard provided the retaining walls and infill mulch for the surrounding sustainable garden, designed by Nick Thayer of Late Afternoon Garden Design. As with all Green Waste Recycle Yard products, the milled lumber and Treeincarnation™ mulch are made entirely from local urban forest trees that would otherwise have ended up in landfills. The lumber and mulch were donated to charity and civic causes following the show.
