Realizing the global concern for fuel production and air quality, The Authority has implemented the use of compressed natural gas (CNG) vehicles. CNG emits 50 percent less carbon dioxide than coal when burned. Located at the Solid Waste Complex on Jesse Bridge Road, the CNG filling station allows both The Authority and public customers to fuel their vehicles with clean natural gas. The filling station was constructed in 2018 and commissioned on January 1, 2019. The filling station provides the opportunity for businesses who have made the switch to CNG to fill their vehicles quickly and conveniently. With competitive rates and 24/7 public access, The Authority looks forward to fueling CNG vehicles.

The Customer Drop Off Center, located past the Scale House on the right, accommodates the general public (smaller trucks and trailers), residents, and registered Deerfield Township residents disposing of solid waste. The Authority tracks registered Deerfield Township disposal by bar code verification and other customers through the scale. The Solid Waste Complex provides a safe area for all customers to properly dispose of their solid waste. After customers exit the Customer Drop Off Center the Solid Waste Complex employees clean the lot with brooms and magnets to pick up any leftover scraps. Customer Drop Off Center Operating Hours Monday to Friday 7:30 am to 3:30 pm Saturday 8:00 am to 12:00 noon

The Authority’s Engineering Department is responsible for landfill permitting and construction design. Using AutoCAD, a commercial computer-aided design program, the engineers can draft plans through the software application. Each year, the Solid Waste Complex is photographed from an aerial view to compare volumes and landfill progress. Engineering is crucial to The Authority, as they ensure the landfill does not pollute the environment through its waters or air.

Fleet Services consists of a team of experienced mechanics that keep The Authority’s equipment running smoothly. Fleet Services is responsible for the maintenance and repair of The Authority’s equipment and vehicles, as well as the Atlantic County Utilities Authority (ACUA) fleet at the Solid Waste Complex. The Authority has been partnered with ACUA since January 1, 2019, providing maintenance on 22 of their rear loader garbage trucks. The Authority utilizes the newest platform of diagnostic scanning tools to detect problems in the equipment serviced. Fleet Services uses a state-of-the-art tire balancing machine to ensure a smooth ride, while also reducing wear and tear on the suspension components and utilizes high tech emissions and pollution diagnostic tools to help meet air quality standards and keep the air clean. On the average day, the team of mechanics diagnose and repair anything and everything from a passenger car to a 120,000-pound trash compactor. Fleet Services is sure to maintain proper service intervals to get the most out of The Authority’s equipment.

The Authority takes great pride in the Solid Waste Complex and all the services provided. The work face area on the landfill is the designated area for commercial haulers to tip their load. This is also the final destination for all solid waste that enters the Solid Waste Complex. At The Solid Waste Complex, skilled operators work together to precisely compact and cover the waste. The state-of-the-art compactor pushes, spreads, and compacts the solid waste. Weighing in at 120,000 pounds, the compactor includes a GPS system that displays elevations, fill pattern, and the compaction rate. The landfill is capable of compacting 700-900 tons of solid waste daily. The landfill work face utilizes a various array of heavy equipment. This includes, bull dozers, off-road end dump trucks, front-end loaders, excavators, and backhoes. This equipment is responsible for pushing solid waste, hauling materials, maintaining slopes, executing special projects, all while maintaining an utmost appearance and complying to NJDEP regulation. The Authority’s efforts ensure proper disposal of solid waste and makes certain the safety of the employees, customers, vendors, and visitors of the Solid Waste Complex.
