In Kentucky, there are many services offered. Our Resource and Waste Management Departments are responsible for handing numerous commodities. Our Inspection Department is responsible for completing inspections of parts on our customer’s site. Our Forklift/Golf Cart Maintenance and Repair Department is responsible for the preventive maintenance and repairs of our customer’s forklifts and golf carts. Our Maintenance Steel Department supplies the metal used for maintenance work completed on our customer’s site. And finally, we have our Transportation Department which primarily began by hauling scrap metal to our sister company, Green Metals, but has since expanded to haul a variety of other commodities.

Resource Management team members pick up the commodities in the plant, and transports them to a designated location. Once at this location, the commodities are segregated, packaged, and shipped to various approved vendors for resale. Some of the recyclable commodities we handle are: corrugated cardboard, metal, various plastics, wood, paper products and gloves. Our team members track the commodities from pick up point to shipment destination for reporting purposes.
Our Waste Management Department is responsible for the timely collection of full and empty waste containers throughout the customer’s facility and safely transporting them to an accumulation area until shipment. Our team members are responsible for tracking thousands of waste containers annually. Our team members are also responsible for complying with the EPA and DOT regulations which include inspecting, manifesting, labeling containers, shipping, and reporting.
Currently our Inspection Department is only handling the inspection of aluminum engine heads. Our team members inspect for defects and leaks. This has been part of our scope of work since May, 1996.
In December 1998, this department started supplying the metal used for maintenance work to our customer. The steel is delivered to our warehouse, where it is processed, loaded on modules, and then delivered. In 2005, this department won an award from our customer for “Outstanding Minority Development Performance”. Continued hard work and dedication from these team members helped them achieve the "2006 Business Partner Award".
September 1996 saw the addition of Forklift Preventive Maintenance and Repairs Department. Service technicians perform PM's and repairs on barretts, crowns, tugs and forklifts. Three years later, in September 1999, the PM's and repairs to golf carts were added to this departments responsibilities.

Established in June 2002 with a fleet of two trucks, this department’s primary function was hauling scrap metal to our sister company, Green Metals, Inc. In 2004, the Transportation Department received certification to haul non-hazardous solid waste. It has since expanded to a fleet of 14 trucks (late model roll-off trucks, tractors, van trailers, and roll-off trailers) driven by an excellent team of experienced certified drivers which specialize in hauling: scrap metal, solid waste, recyclables, construction debris, compactors, and sealed sludge containers. We have an in-house maintenance department - including a certified welder - that repairs our trucks, trailers, roll-off containers, compactors and hydraulic components.
