    Toxicity for fairly benign stuff isn't really an issue, I would imagine. Most major incinerators are going to need filters for the normal toxic stuff regardless. Water, however (which most people's grass, sticks, logs etc are loaded with) could seriously cut into whatever efficiency is required for their incinerator to function properly.

    I guess that makes sense... a little. Just seemed odd to me at the time.

    Now for that low a fee I wouldn't (theoretically of course) have to do pre-dawn dumpster missions.

    We also have a city facility that charges $5 per pickup load. The trash must be burnable (mattresses are accepted for example) and it goes into the city incinerator and is used to supplement power generation (I think - not positive). Oddly enough, they won't accept branches and sticks or any kind of yard waste - you know, "natural" combustibles, but they gladly accept things which no doubt create toxic fumes (like mattresses). :nuts:

    They may have an air scrubber set up for the "toxic" stuff and due to cost of operations don't want to foul it with "natural" toxic stuff?:dunno:
