PROPER USE of the TREE AND BRUSH DUMP
Open on Weekends Only
About 7 years ago the Town of Rangely began providing an additional service for those needing to eliminate limbs, brush and grass harvested in and around your properties. A biomass dumpsite was made available just east of Camper Park for this material to be disposed with emphasis given to the patrons of the site to sort the material being dropped so that it could either be disposed of or composted for future use.
One of the biggest issues we now face is illegal dumping of trash and disposal of man-made treated lumber and materials. This material has to be sorted from the piles and then either landfilled or moved to another location to be burned. This increases the cost of managing the site for everyone.
Please keep the site for its intended use and ensure that the material left is strictly biomass. This site will not accept any refuse, trash, tires, treated or manufactured lumber, plastic bags containing brush and grass unless the bags are removed first.
The benefit for many of us will continue and we ask that you report illegal dumping at this site or on BLM property and help the Town, the County and BLM manage this problem throughout our area.
