All solid waste, including that collected by private haulers, is brought to the transfer facility in Chadron for processing. Additionally, SWANN provides "community sites" at eight communities within, the service area. These sites are available for rural and municipal SWANN customers to drop off waste material in lieu of traveling to the transfer facility in Chadron.
One of our most successful recycling programs has been the processing of grass clippings and leaves into nitrogen rich compost. Screened compost is made available to our customers FREE OF CHARGE. Quantities are limited to 1 pickup load per day per account to ensure that everyone can participate. (not for resale)
The Chadron transfer station, as well as the community sites, accept automotive batteries, yard waste, larger amounts of tress branches, appliances (including Freon containing), waste oil and concrete at NO ADDITIONAL CHARGE. For information on tires or construction/demolition debris, visit the rates page.
Twenty yard roll off containers may be rented for large quantity or bulky items for a cost-effective alternative method to self-hauling.
