The County also recycles a large amount of material at the landfill area and the Waste-To-Energy Plant which includes white goods, scrap steel, tires and construction & demolition debris such as sheetrock and wood waste.  Below is the amount of material diverted form the landfill and recycled at New Hanover County monthly:
