- Vice Mayor Rodney Glassman, Ward 2 City Council Member, will host a free informative tour of Tucson’s only active municipal landfill, the Los Reales Landfill, followed by a tour of the Recycle America facility, operated by the City’s recycling contractor. The public is invited to learn about the landfill and recycling process in Tucson.
Tour participants will meet at Eastside City Hall, 7575 E. Speedway, at 8 a.m. A Sun Tran bus will transport the group to the tour sites, leaving promptly at 8:30 a.m. and returning at noon.
This is an excellent opportunity to find out exactly where our garbage and recycling goes once it leaves our homes," said Glassman. "Participants will learn about new landfill construction methods, how the Environmental Services Department disposes of waste, including the handling of household waste materials, and e-waste. While on the tour, we will also see heavy equipment in operation, and learn how methane gas generated at the landfill gets used to generate energy."
Tour participants should wear long pants and closed-toed shoes and must be able to board and exit the bus and walk approximately 100 yards without assistance. As part of our tour is outside, hats and sunscreen are encouraged and cameras are welcome. Drinking water will be provided. The tour is not for children younger than age 14.
