Earth Month Guided Tour

Earth Month Guided Facility Tour

During this guided Earth Month tour, you’ll go behind the scenes at Mt. Diablo Resource Recovery and gain rare access to areas most people never see. See firsthand how we collect and process materials, and maximize recycling while minimizing landfilling.

What You’ll Experience

Visitors will get an up-close look at how our operation works from the moment materials arrive to when they leave our site. The tour includes:

  • A walkthrough of the recycling facility where materials are sorted, processed, and prepared for their next use
  • An overview of how we manage organics and why they play a key role in reducing landfill waste
  • An inside look at how we handle garbage responsibly and how proper sorting reduces contamination and environmental impact
  • Time with our team to ask questions and learn how to sort smarter at home
