MCM Management, headquartered in Michigan, has broken ground on a recycling and transfer station that it is building in Waterloo, Ind. The facility will consist of a 40,000-square-foot recycling station and a 28,800-square-foot scrap metal buyback center.
The company plans to use a significant amount of recycled materials in the construction of the plant.
Kevin Mershon of IWM Consulting Corp., which is acting as the site developer and project manager, says the facility has been designed to handle around 600 tons per day of material.
MCM expects to recycle about 28 percent of the material delivered to the facility. "The Waterloo Recycle Transfer Station is an excellent fit with our normal demolition and recycling services," states MCM Management Corp. President David Mardigian.
"We determined that Northeast Indiana offers a great potential for a facility of this type," IWM Consulting Corp. CEO Mark Matthews says, "and Waterloo was the logical place for the operation."
