Free tipping day should process 2X faster on Saturday Second and Last Day of Free tipping for Adair County Residents, 07amCT-12pmNoonCT, Sat 20 May 2017. at the Mid-State Waste Transfer Station, 877 L. Willis Road, Columbia, KY. - BRIDGET COMPTON. STORY/DETAILS Click on headline for full story with photo(s) By Ed Waggener Thanks to to the productive work of Vicky Browning Pike, a member of the Adair County Solid Waste Advisory Committee, Midwest Transfer Station Manager Doug Riley, and Magistrate Daryl Flatt, the flow of trash laden vehicles should be processed twice as fast when free tipping for Adair Countians begins tomorrow, Saturday, May 20, 2017 at 7amCT, than it did on opening day. When Miss Vicky went over to the station Friday morning, she said the line was the awfullest mess one could imagine. A moving ever so slowly. It was raining, and some had camped out since 5:30amCT, ninety minutes before the scheduled start. She found that trucks were being weighed individually, loaded and empty, with the difference entered into a tally sheet. She asked the station manager if the weight would be tallied any quicker. She learned that the fee is based on the total number of pounds delivered to Midwest's processing center in Oneida, TN. Adair County would pay for the weight of one big pile of trash, regardless of the number of vehicles. On further investigation, Miss Vicky found that there was a very simple solution: Midwest can weigh the large transfer trucks on the scales in Oneida, tally the weight of a few semi's and the amount to be charged Adair County Fiscal Court could be calculate in very little time. Meanwhile, back at the transfer station on L.C.Willis Road, Adair County citizens will need only have their Adair County drivers' licenses registered, dump the trash cargo, and move on through. Magistrate Daryl Flatt, authorized the change for tomorrow. Miss Vicky estimates that vehicles will be processed, their trash offloaded and licenses be registered in half the time it took on Friday.
