Cullet can be used in different applications but it can also be melted.  The melted glass is dropped into a glass forming machine where it is poured into molds, blown with air and shaped into its final shape such as a soda bottle.

What Happens to Paper?

After being picked up, paper must first be separated by its type.  it is "squashed into large cubes, called bales," and transported to a processing plant. There, it's chopped and put through several mechanical and chemical treatments which wash out ink and contaminants, leaving a watery "slurry." The slurry is then made into new paper products.

What Happens to Plastic?

Plastic is separated by its resin type, which is printed on the bottom of each item inside a triangle. It's also separated by shape: plastic bags, for example, are not processed with milk jugs. After separating, plastics are compressed into bales and transported to a processing plant, then washed and shredded into tiny pieces. They can then be melted and molded into new products.

Many times it doesn't necessarily needs to be an specific season when you can spot a dead tree or dead wood. While its true that these can be tough calls at first view, there are many ways you can still recognize when a tree is dead or alive even in the winter time.

at first glance the easiest ways to see its if some parts of the tree are green while others are brown. You may try to pull a little piece and if it gives you some resistance it means its alive while the dead tree will flake off easily. Make sure you check if there are any bumps along the stump, these may be the beginning of new branches being formed which would mean that your tree is pretty much alive still. 

You may want to use and small knife and cut an small portion and look for green. The collar of a tree will always be slightly raised and swollen.

In the weeks after following sandy many people were looking for someone to attend to their emergencies ASAP. The best thing is always to contact the local companies near you, this way you can always verify that they are legit companies that have references and are insured. 

Unfortunately due to the high demand after a natural disaster many opportunists start appearing from everywhere so you should make sure this people are licensed to remove trees.

As we mentioned on our prior post, there are 2 very common mistakes a homeowner often makes.

1. Make sure is a local contractor and you can verify their office address... verify this companies that will remove your tree aren't "Here today and Gone Tomorrow".  To the verified the quality of a job you need to be able to also reach them and when need it.... Many times you can see customers giving money to people up front who never come back tomorrow to do the job.

2. Make sure they aren't Landscapers... I know many times we trying to save some money specially when more than just a tree felt down on your property but you may not be saving money, this can turn into a dangerous result. Landscaping companies don't have the insurance to cover an accident while removing a tree because they aren't licensed for it, they can only do debris clean up. There are so many ways this combination can go wrong in so many ways from a tree being removed in a bad way causing more damage to your property to someone getting injured because they didn't have the experience of a tree removal expert so be careful and its better to be safe.

Your Trees & The Hurricane

Tree Damage can be one of the saddest and most worrisome results of any hurricane or severe storm. Trees are very important for humans and the earth. In terms of safety they can be damage structures during a hurricane.

Knowing which trees to plant, where to plant them, and how to prepare existing trees for hurricane season can greatly reduce the risk of lost or damaged trees.  

There are some steps you can take on your own, but for best results, rely on the experience of your tree service professional. Have a tree expert remove dead trees and dread tree limbs and evaluate the health of trees near enough to fall on your (or your neighbor's) house. Your tree service professional is your greatest tool in preventative care to make less the damage.

Pruning is crucial in allowing a tree to grow strong which reduces the factors of causing damage. Trees need to be pruned selectively to allow wind passage, encourage strong branch angles and encourage a healthy center of gravity so it doesn't incline and falls. 

Another concern is leaf debris. Tree leaves and pine needles can clog house gutters. The excess water increases the weight in the gutters and may cause them to fail and clog. The pooling water can overflow and cause wood rot and even enter the exterior wall resulting in Sheetrock damage inside your home. Make sure gutters and downspouts are clean in advance of inclement weather. If you see plants growing in your gutters, it is time to clean them!
