Pulverizing and Demolition of St. Johns River Power Park – Arwood Waste –
When the walls come tumbling down this year in synchronized explosive blasts, the demolition will likewise be one of the most transformative the city has ever seen. 1-904-751-2177
JEA has begun process of “de-electrifying” the coal-fired plant, clearing the way for Total Wrecking and Environmental Inc. to start demolition in March.
The main event of the $17.7-million teardown and site clearance will come sometime in the summer, when demolition turns toward taking down the two cooling towers that each soar 460 feet in the air, the rough equivalent of 33-story office towers.
Northside resident Bobby Taylor said it will be a bittersweet moment when the towers bite the dust.
“There is a bit of regret of a passing of an era,” he said. “We all watched it being built and a lot of people grew up with it.”
The decision to build the power park on the Northside originally sparked some backlash.
“A lot of people felt like they were putting this dirty industry on the Northside because we were the ‘backwoods’ of Jacksonville,” Taylor said. “But over a period of time, it employed a lot of people in good middle-class jobs.”
In addition to using implosions to bring down the two cooling towers in the summer, the demolition will use explosives in the fall to pulverize a 640-foot tall stack that contains two brick chimneys.

3 (non)Wasteful Tips for Winter
1. Enjoy the Weather
Some things are out of our control. When dangerous weather conditions cause interruptions in garbage service, know that we are doing our best and will be back on schedule as soon as we can. Take this time to enjoy the wonder of weather.
2. Spread the Warmth
Your garbage men and women are committed to what they do, even in ice cold circumstances. Surprise them with a hot chocolate, coffee, or even some warm gloves.
3. Stay Safe
Driving large vehicles in freezing conditions can be dangerous. Make sure children are away from the road when your garbage men and women are expected to be on your street. Ice can make it difficult to stop quickly if needed. Also, make sure your garbage is properly stored and ready for pick up so your drivers don’t have increased difficulty making your pickup.
From your friends at National Garbage Man Day, we ask that you enjoy the weather, keep warm, and stay safe this winter.

Start the New Year with a Clean Slate – 3 Tips from Arwood Waste to Make 2018 the Best!
Your friends at Arwood Waste would like to wish you a Happy New Year!
It’s amazing what kind of impact just a few small changes can make. Use these tips to start off strong and make this a prosperous, rewarding, and productive new year.
#1 Simplify your environment.
Take a few minutes to walk through your home or business and ask yourself, “What can I get rid of here?” HELPFUL HINT: If it hasn’t been used in more than a year, it’s time to go. If you have a newer version, don’t keep the old one around ‘just in case’. Have a stack of half done projects? Make a plan to get them finished. Keeping them around only acts as a reminder of half-fulfilled efforts.
A purge of your physical environment brings clarity and space for vision in the atmosphere of your home or business.
#2 Share your abundance with others.
When simplifying last year’s stacks of stuff, consider what might be donated, recycled or re-purposed. Remember, what you have no need for may be just the thing someone else has been searching high and low to find.
Check out The Recycle Guide for places to drop off your re-purposed items or for more ideas on how to recycle.
#3 Plan space for growth.
You can’t add a new healthy habit, project, or vision to your plate without letting go of an old one. Set yourself up for success with your New Year’s resolutions. Start by evaluating what’s on your plate now. Decide what can be delegated, modified, or simply stopped. Then put that newly found time and energy into this year’s goals and habits.

Let us cleanup and remove your residential “Yard Waste” or “Green Waste”, including leaves, grass clippings, tree or hedge prunings, branches, and small amounts of soil.

If you are a Landlord or Property Manager, how many times have your tenants moved out and left a pile of junk behind, or a mattress or two? If this happens to you again, give us a call, and we’ll quickly get rid of the junk!
For Realtors!
As a Realtor, you have probably listed a house where the Sellers have a ton of junk that needs to be removed. Or maybe your clients were the Buyers who just bought their dream home, but the previous owners or tenants left some junk behind, so the Buyers were not happy. If this happens to you again, give us a call, and we’ll quickly get rid of the junk!
Small Demolitions!
We do small demolitions of fences, sheds, and more. We also use a sawzall to cut up and remove hot tubs, truck canopies, and more. Need insulation from a crawlspace removed and taken to the dump? We can do that too!
