A new northwest Hall County compactor site at 3166 Brackett Drive opens Tuesday, taking the place of the current Sardis compactor location. Dual garbage compactors and a recycling station covering the full suite of recyclables will open to area residents after 7 a.m. Tuesday, according to Hall County Public Works and Public Utilities Director Ken Rearden and the lead engineer for the project, Jason Skarda. Work began in February to replace the current compactor at 2801 Sardis Road — the county’s busiest compactor. Construction for the new facility is finishing just under its $575,000 budget and a bit behind schedule because of rain through the spring and summer, the engineers said, but it promises to be much more efficient than the current Sardis compactor.
