What Is Your Airspace Worth?

Saving space saves revenue. Selling airspace is what drives profit for a landfill, making it the most precious asset and biggest conservation challenge. Airspace is the amount of space related to capacity and usable life of a landfill. Landfills want to increase airspace while at the same time extending the life of the landfill. Typically, landfills control airspace and remain in EPA compliance by compacting solid waste into compressed pods called cells and using a daily cover..

What Is Daily Cover?

Federal and State regulations require that landfills cover their solid waste daily with a minimum of six inches of dirt. At the end of each day a cover must be applied to seal compacted trash preventing noxious odors, spreading litter and access to pests, such
as birds, rats and insects.

Why Alternative Daily Cover?

FINN’s alternative daily cover takes up 24 times less space than dirt. The life of any landfill depends on the remaining permitted available airspace. Each cubic yard of dirt that is used for daily cover results in a permanent loss of revenue on space that can not be sold.
