Solid Waste Scrap Tire Loading Area & Asphalt Shingle Storage and Processing Area

Iredell County intends to create an area to collect and load used tires into semi-trailers and an area to collect, process, and load recycled asphalt shingles. The project will include an option to repair a storm water culvert at the ICATS department. Iredell County intends to award a service contract to a single vendor to provide all site work, product, materials, labor, equipment, etc. to grade, construct retaining walls, storage bunkers, concrete un-loading & loading pads, stormwater diversion berms & swales, stone topped, recycled asphalt, or concrete pavement access roads, and vegetation.
