provided a great overview of our experience in the business, and
some of the organizations who have benefited from that experience. |

In 1992 the City of Loveland approached A1 regarding development of a program that would divert residential, and eventually commercial yard waste from landfill disposal due to diminishing capacity of local landfills and problems associated with new landfill construction. A1 and the City of Loveland worked together to develop, implement, and operate a plan that has been in place since 1992.
