Blue Ridge Services, Inc. training

Why spend money sending someone to a conference, hoping they’ll learn something and bring it back to the rest of the crew? Instead, we’ll conduct customized, on-site training for your entire crew. Our training programs range from generic 1-4 hour sessions, to custom 1-2 day sessions that deal with operational issues specific to your site. As an example, one of our training programs focused directly on maximizing scraper productivity at a 6,000 ton/day landfill where they used three 637 scrapers. Other sessions have had a broader scope, addressing the needs of municipalities that operated a variety of landfills. At landfills which were nearing closure, or where airspace was very expensive, other training programs have concentrated on cell construction and efficient cover placement techniques.

The average landfill (~400 tons/day) consumes nearly $5,000 in airspace every single day. Over $100,000 / month. Training your operators to maximize compaction and minimize airspace can save you money …And in this economy, who doesn’t want to cut costs?. “Landfill Compaction” will provide your employees with the most comprehensive compaction training course in the world.
