About Mountain Waste & Recycling
The demolition and salvage business Mountain Waste & Recycling works out of Carbondale, Colorado in Garfield County. The site takes inbound scrap from individual sellers and small contractors, and acts as one of the paid drop-off options for salvage volume in the surrounding county. Public records do not list which material types the yard accepts on the inbound side as of the current directory snapshot. Practical details: posted hours are available for visitors to check, and a phone line and a website are on file. Both data points are pulled from the yard's filing with the directory and reflect the public-facing snapshot of the inbound flow, surfaced here as a working baseline for sellers planning a visit to the gate. Larger inbound volumes benefit from a phone-ahead so the yard can plan gate space and any handling equipment needed at intake. The same call lets sellers confirm whether the site can accommodate the planned load on the planned day of the drive over.
