Materials must be free of contaminants such as paint, plastic, or other non-organic materials so they can be safely processed through our recycling operations.
From Wood Waste to Useful Products

Useful Products
Wood waste collected by Smith Creek is processed and repurposed into useful organic products rather than being sent to landfills. Through grinding, screening, and material separation, clean wood waste becomes a valuable raw material for several recycling applications.
Mulch Production
A significant portion of recycled wood is processed into mulch used for landscaping, erosion control, and soil protection.
Compost and Soil Products
Wood fibers are used as a carbon component in composting operations and soil blends, helping create nutrient-rich compost and soil products.
Renewable Wood Fuel
Some materials are further processed into fuel products such as wood pellets that provide efficient heating and renewable energy solutions.
