We went to Creedmoor. Verna Browning was kind enough to take us down and show us around the Texas Disposal Systems ranch.

It’s a site that Texas Disposal Systems operates under license as a landfill, but you can’t call it anything other than a ranch. And a dude ranch at that. It’s immaculate. And it has exotic wildlife roaming its vast acreage too.

Jimmy and Bobby Gregory, the brothers who founded and own TDS, take pride in having their showcase guest buildings downwind from the landfill area, and they should – the air there is purely sweet. That’s because they take most of the good stuff out of the trash before they bury it. The landfill is something like the last resort – and they never stop thinking about what else they can get out of that trash before it has to sit idle in the gorund.

Take a look at how we saw the facility.
