Our Balers Help Nashville Recycle & Compact Waste

Commit to the environment with our waste management solutions. Simplify recycling with cutting-edge equipment for a greener city and sustainable future.

As the “Country Music Capital of the World,” Nashville is world renowned for its music and honky-tonks. Although music influences virtually every aspect of modern life in the cosmopolitan city, Nashville has a diverse and storied history.

The city’s history does not make up for its lackluster recycling, however. That’s where Bramidan’s equipment is helping transform the city.

Nashville Recycles and Composts 24% of Garbage

Nashville, one of the most progressive cities in the state, only recycles and composts 24% of its waste — well below the national average of 35%. (That figure includes businesses; the Nashville residential recycling rate is far less). With only 9 years or so left at its biggest landfill, waste may end up in Kentucky or elsewhere in Tennessee.

Commercial Building Waste
This is a serious problem for the 25th largest city in America. Most of Nashville’s waste comes from commercial buildings. Construction and demolition waste has nearly doubled since 2008, during the real estate boom. Overall, Nashville’s “municipal solid waste,” which excludes construction and demolition, had 76% heading to landfills, 18% recycled and 6% composted.

Drilling into the numbers, the report identifies some areas for improvement. It estimates that 87% of all residential waste, and 99% of all construction/demolition debris, was sent to landfills. Bramidan equipment, like the B6030 baler, could lead the way for troubled cities like Nashville. With greater education and persistence, perhaps we can help turn the tide.
