About Yard

Ownership of the Waste-Away Group is comprised of second and third generation family members. Charles Himes, Sr, formed the company in 1940 and it began as a one-truck operation. Today ownership is represented by a group of five people; second generation brothers, Charles Himes II and Stephen Himes and third generation brothers, Charles Himes III, Christopher Himes and Kenneth Himes. The owners (see below picture gallery) work together to manage and maintain the multi-functional company as the market leader.

Waste-Away Group - Who are We?
Waste-Away Group, Ltd. manages waste collection, transportation, and disposal, both to a Materials Recovery Facility and landfill facilities for residential, commercial, and industrial customers. Having served Northern Indiana and Southern Michigan for over 70 years, Waste-Away Group, Ltd. is headquartered in Elkhart, Indiana. Its affiliate companies, Borden Waste-Away Service, Inc., providing residential waste and recycling removal, Himco Waste-Away Service, Inc., serving our commercial and industrial customers for their waste and recycling removal, Integra Certified Document Destruction LLC, providing safe, secure destruction of sensitive material and hard drives, and Recycling Works, Inc., the Materials Recovery Facility that sorts and ships recycling commodities to the world market for reuse. Together, these companies making up Waste-Away Group, provide innovative, environmentally sound solutions while maintaining a leading market share in its core business areas.

Borden Waste-Away Collection Services

Borden Waste-Away is the largest residential waste and recycling company in northern Indiana and southern Michigan. Our reliable service focuses on safety as our number one priority. Our customers include individual subscription residents, homeowner associations, municipalities and solid waste districts. Our company is committed to providing a courteous staff of professionals to help with any waste and recycling needs.

Recycling

Recycling Works processing includes a series of mechanical screens, magnets, eddy-current separators, optical scanners and hand pickers for sorting and processing recyclable paper, glass, plastics, aluminum and metals. As materials move along conveyor belts, a set of screens separates the paper and cardboard while crushing glass items. Powerful magnets remove tin, steel and other metal. Reverse magnets known as eddy currents cause aluminum cans to fly off the conveyor belt and into a bin for bundling. Separated items are collected and compressed into bales for shipping to paper mills, metal smelting operations, and plastic and glass reclaimers who further process the recycled materials for reuse in the marketplace. The new technology greatly increases the recovery of recycleables. The facility will be able to process over 450 tons of material every day. The separation process also greatly reduces the amount of contaminated products, such as soiled newsprint, that would have to be thrown away. As much as 98 percent of all the collected items are recycled.

 Because of this new facility, residents are experiencing another value-added service from the Waste-Away Group. Single stream recycling is the emerging trend in curbside recycling. Customers are allowed to collect all recycleables in a wheeled cart instead of separating items in a bin. Studies show single-stream recycling increases participation in communities up to 30 percent more and in some cases, higher.This process also improves the neighborhood. The number of collection vehicles and service days are reduced. Collection is more efficient and wear and tear on roads is reduced while safety in the neighborhood is improved.Single-stream recycling benefits the environment by reducing fuel emissions and landfill usage, and supplies manufacturers with usable materials. We are helping communities save on fuel and operating costs. The goal of Recycling Works is to better the environment in the communities served by keeping them cleaner.
