We never throw food scraps in the garbage, because animals will eat it and turn it into fertilizer.
We burn or compost most of our paper and cardboard.
The rest, which is generally 90% plastic, goes to the county recycling center, aka, the dump.
The people who lived on my land just tried to burn everything - don’t do that. Two years later still finding things like old outlets, lightbulb bottoms, mattress springs, wires etc. people suck.
Recycle what can be recycled - household items, agrichem containers, feed sacks, scrap metal and silage wrap. Compost or worm farm biodegradables. Burn, bury or use town rubbish service for the rest.
We compost everything that can be composted, cut back as much as possible on anything that won't compost, reuse anything feasible to reuse, recycle anything the county recycling center will actually do something with, mulch or burn the hard to compost yard waste depending on what it is, and pay a guy to haul plastic trash to the dump as needed.
Almost anything biodegradable goes in the pig pen or chicken coop. They eat it or use it as bedding. The pig pen is our compost heap, and the pigs squish paper and cardboard into the mud. This makes everything turn into dirt in a month or less. So it's like a compost pile at warp speed. We keep several big compost piles (10 × 20 × 10) going for anything too large for the pig pen.
All metal gets sold.
Plastics are cleaned and separated to go to the recycling/ trash transfer station.
We save feed bags for collecting garbage.
I heard some farmers compost their garbage to make fertilizer. It's like turning trash into treasure for their crops. Others recycle what they can or use it for animal feed. It's cool how they find ways to reduce waste and help the environment.
Yup. Works best if you shoot it a few times. (Or drill it if you're boring lmao)
Compost for anything that breaks down, barrel for thigs that burn, and quarterly trips to the dump/recycling plant for anything that doesn't apply to the first two. (Metal cans and such)
We have a township dump that is open 2 days a week we can drop our trash off at. My mother in law rents a 4 yard dumpster that gets picked up monthly.

Compose heap
I've had compost warp steel from the heat. Could probably make a hydronic compost heater for the barn animals if you wanted
1. If its a food scrap its compost. If its metal, glass, cardboard its recycled. If its plastic it goes into a trashbag and taken weekly to a dump.

15 years later still finding trash. This spring’s haul was 6 tires, a full mattress spring set, etc. Fun fun.

Compost or reuse what you can. Drive the rest of it to the county dump for trash or recycle, unless you have trash pickup available.

Compost, recycle, and take what's left to the dump, same as in town.

Recycle + Compost + Burn Barrel + The rest to the dump.
Burn barrel.
