Would you ever consider spending the day at a landfill? If you’re a birdwatcher and the landfill is the Santa Cruz Resource Recovery Facility, then the answer might be, “yes.” That might come as a surprise to a lot of folks but this landfill has actually become a popular destination not only for birds but for the people who watch them. The reason is how environmentally friendly this particular landfill is. Each night after the days dumping of trash, that garbage is covered over with soil it is then treated with clay and recycled construction waste to seal it in. On top of that is another layer of soil and mulch where vegetation grows freely. This is what attracts the birds and the birdwatchers. It is conceivable that you might be standing on some garage you’ve thrown out!

This is a very responsible way to handle garbage but the ultimate goal is that a place like this will become 100% bird sanctuary without any new garbage being poured  in. That will take a lot of cooperation from homeowners and businesses all throughout Santa Cruz. There is one company that’s already helping with that. Junk King Monterey is a professional junk hauling service that has been dedicated to a responsible approach to junk removal ever since they began operations over 14 years ago.

Junk King approaches every truck full of rubbish as an opportunity to recycle or donate.
