Ryland gets Ware garbage contract

The Ware County Board of Commissioners voted unanimously to award the county’s garbage collection and disposal contract to Ryland Environmental, selecting the company over competitor Republic Services after a detailed evaluation and public discussion.

Commissioner Jon Tindall, who made the motion to approve Ryland’s proposal, highlighted two resident- focused benefits which influenced his decision.

“The reason I wanted to go this route is I really like the benefit of a Saturday opening for the transfer station,” said Tindall. “Also, being able to haul out there 300 pounds a quarter for a year for the residents. That’s a huge benefit to all of our residents.”
