Joplin’s municipal limb and brush program is limited to residential customers and does not accept contractor loads. Ozark Resource Recovery is being developed to serve tree services, landscapers, land-clearing companies, contractors and other commercial customers with approved brush, tree debris and clean-wood loads.

ORR’s planned facility near I-44 Exit 15 will give working crews another disposal option without waiting for a residential drop-off event. Commercial customers and anyone planning repeated or large-volume loads should contact ORR before hauling.

Turning Wood Waste Into a Local Resource

At ORR, brush, limbs, logs and clean wood won’t automatically be treated as garbage. Our goal is to recover and process suitable material into useful products such as mulch, biomass fuel and other recycled wood products whenever practical. By separating clean organic material from contaminated waste, we can reduce the amount sent to landfills and keep more of Southwest Missouri’s natural resources working within our local economy.

Recover More

Suitable brush, trees and clean wood can be processed instead of buried.

Waste Less

Separating clean material helps reduce unnecessary landfill disposal.

Keep It Local

Recovered material may become mulch, biomass fuel or other useful products serving our region.

Have a questionable or mixed load? Text Greg a photo before making the trip so we can confirm acceptance and help keep recoverable material clean.

Recovery operations and material processing goals are subject to operational readiness and local market demand. Product availability may vary.

Ready to Plan Your Brush and Wood-Waste Disposal?

Invite tree services, landscapers, contractors and property owners to text or call Greg with questions about their material before they haul.

All materials are subject to inspection, and acceptance is not guaranteed. Operations are planned to begin in Fall 2026. Material acceptance and pricing are subject to change without notice.
