The Franklin County Solid Waste Department has found a new company to recycle white goods and scrap metal that are disposed of at the county landfill.
White goods are generally large appliances like refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners and washers and dryers.
Since 2008, the county worked with a company out of Blountstown called Cumbaa Enterprises.
That agreement ended last year after the company was no longer able to provide service including baling, loading and transporting the white goods and other metal out of the county.
This week the Franklin County Commission approved a contract with a new company called Panhandle Recycling out of Hosford to haul the scrap metal from the county’s landfill.
Franklin county will make 4 cents a pound through the agreement and will not have to pay for hauling.
