One Man's Trash ... Is Another Man's Treasure
The City of Long Beach is encouraging residents, businesses and other organizations to participate in the Los Angeles County Online Materials Exchange (LACoMAX), a free web-based service designed to find markets for industrial by-products, surplus materials, and other would-be discards. The primary goal of LACoMAX is to conserve landfill space by helping find alternatives to the disposal of valuable materials that are presently discarded as waste. Users of the service can browse or post listings of a variety of available and wanted materials on the LACoMAX website.
