What Happened at the landfill after the SNOW?

[@cashking8056]

this guy has life by the balls! landfill, sand pit, making landscaping products, concrete, landscaping, and what ever else! u sir are living the true all american dream!!!!!

[@beaverc2884]

I never would have thought the first time I clicked on a video about a landfill that this channel would become my favorite channel. Ryan and all your employees, I have to thank you for all the enjoyment I have gotten from watching the videos. 😊😊

[@1966spyderco]

Just normal folk doing hard work is why this channel rocks.................

[@retrodad6864]

Ever since you had the visit from Dirt Perfect & Letsdig18 I’ve been hooked. Aaron, Coco and the rest of your crew do a fine job. Thanks for sharing. 🇬🇧👌

[@KevinHarvey-qw5mj]

This guy is living the dream cause of the people who he surrounds his self with got a good crew because he treats them like family a rod and his brother make a lot of stuff happen with the rest of the crew enjoy watching cause we had same thing sand and gravel company also we had a landfill and a trucking company but bringing back memories Ryan is a great guy to work for and cares about his employees and a spokesman for other products

[@carstenk63]

Don't let the ney sayers get to you - we like your videos and like all of you guys 👍🏼 And you saved more than 16K - yeah it's a good day.

[@Fatamus]

I say nay to nay sayers 😂

[@MikePagenkopf]

All of you are doing a good job stay safe have a good day

[@tomclark82]

I appreciate how you treat your employees! Keep up the positive attitude.

[@Peculiar_Optics]

I cannot believe that hole has filled up that much in just the last 4 months that is unreal y'all better get to diggin. I love watching how things are constantly evolving and changing at the landfill. Right now I think you are filling it faster than you can dig it. 12 scoops

[@bgundercover]

I enjoy the banter between you and Aaron! He seems to be a joy to work with.

[@cyberjoe4742]

Hello Mr. DiGG. We have a Komatsu 300 as a replacement vehicle since last week. The operators also complained that it was slower than our own vehicle. At first we thought it was throttled. But it turned out that dirt had accumulated under the floor mat behind the accelerator pedal. After that it drove just as fast as our vehicle. 👋

[@TimBrooks-rs8te]

Ryan, the older you get, time goes by faster. I'm 62 and it's seems like not to long ago that I graduated high school. That was in 1980. So please enjoy it while you can. Also another great video.

[@jaredbirch3096]

I never thought I would enjoy sitting here on a Saturday watching videos of a landfill. But here we are. Keep it up tho bud. I’m loving your videos

[@tonysmith7502]

Who would think watching a video about a landfill would interest someone? Well it definitely has , l subscribed about 2 maybe 3 months ago ..enjoy trashy Tuesday enjoy how you get around showing all the aspects of the business

[@TheRealMrDiGG]

Thanks

[@davewood406]

Sun exposure can make pvc pipe brittle if it's not UV rated... You can paint it but If that's the case, that damage apparently is done and only a matter of time, you'll want to replace any sections exposed to the sun.

[@hvacmangoodman4]

Yep

[@stephena2390]

Don’t sweat the aging Ryan, you’re still a stud! 💪🏽💪🏽😁

[@davidkilgore8591]

The guy from Scotia Nova was right it was 12 scoups to fill it up. Love this channel so much.

[@corycourneyea6802]

Thanks, Ryan, for the updates 👍🏼

[@madelinelambert605]

Lol I wasn't counting!! Great news on water bill !!!! Have a fun trip!!!!

[@marcmaillet4858]

Some videos of other channels are boring and sometimes there not, YOURS on the other hand is NEVER boring. I always enjoy watching each and every one of your videos. You seem like a darn nice guy to work for. Keep up the great videos comin 😉

[@edieboudreau9637]

Thanks for trying to answer questions. It's appreciated.

[@Fatamus]

❤❤❤ the video. That type of pipe is for under ground only. The UV rays wreak havoc on that type of plastic after several years. Also cavitation on the inside caused by flowering water can cause the pipe to thin/pit in areas causing the pipe to fail. The snowball effect you and Aaron were describing sounds like a cavitation problem 😮. The breaking or splitting of the pipe is most likely a result of UV rays or water-hammer. Water-hammer is the effect of someone slamming a water valve closed and/or open. The pressure spikes inside the pump and pipe to extremes. A way to avoid water-hammer is to create a shock chamber. One way to create a shock absorber in the circuit is to add a capped horizontal section of pipe about 3’-4’above the water pipe. Place the shock absorber next to where you are having problems. The chamber you have created when the pipe is filled with water will create an air bubble that will act as a shock absorber.

[@mikepenney6452]

I found your channel following Chris and Mike! But you guys have an impressive operation going.🍻🍻 thankyou for sharing these videos.

[@duncan.5228]

Love your channel Ryan. Cheers from Scotland.

[@TheRealMrDiGG]

Hey, thanks!

[@stevecollins1196]

Love the video as always much love and respect thanks for sharing ❤❤❤

[@TheRealMrDiGG]

Thanks so much

[@perryroberts3792]

Mr.Digg, I can’t count that high for the number of of scoops for the haul truck! 😂😂 That Volvo loader could use a BIGGER BUCKET THOUGH!

[@bosshogg3548]

Great video 👍🏻 I thought the Volvo had a manual thumb love how he made you a walking ramp and they way the dirt Looks is cool Love how you touched the dirt love how you put your hand on the dirt and pushed up to get on top of the hill I paused the video and your face looked funny 😂 love how the words say hall truck instead of haul truck 😂 3:15 love how the guy was jumping up and down on the dozer love the dent in Aarons truck bumper love how the words say bee instead of be love Aarons outfit and I was using mic to spell and it wrote what Aaron said 😂 love how the words say sleep instead of sleet 😂 didn’t know you got a divorce sorry to hear that love how you said make it love how you do thumbs up 30:38 love the green thing on the hill

[@TL64329]

Good video- 12 scoops is what I counted. Looks like you need another excavator and at least 2 more trucks to move all that sand.

[@golfbravowhiskey8669]

Man that Volvo 290 at the end it looks like he could stand a little bigger bucket. Btw after being born and raised here in Texas and 60 years old farming and tanching and living 5 miles outside of a town of the population of 196, wherever that testing center is here in Texas if it's Austin, Dallas or Houston don't confuse those concrete jungles being Texas, its just a bunch of city Slickers, you gotta get out away from there to see the real Texas. Just remember almost everybody's packing and we drive 85 to 100 miles an hour everywhere we go.

[@bryanstaten5585]

Everybody packing and hauling ass! I like it!

[@Richard-C]

great video Ryan, and getting winded while climbing is just part of getting mature 😉, you have a great team working with you, quick Hi to Aaron his brother and miss Coco and everyone else who works with you 👍👍👍👍👍

[@johnnylindsey5808]

Good job guys and good luck

[@EpicATrain]

3:24 That was me!!! ^-^

[@AlexeiTetenov]

Thank you for sharing!

[@caveman5943]

you guys are doing some awesome work. looks like you need a 3 haul truck to really knock that ramp out. love the videos keep it up.

[@mischef18]

Enjoyed the video as always bro. Ken

[@RobDowe]

You guys rock

[@paulprigge1209]

Y’all got a snowstorm coming according to the weather forecast!! thanks for the video. Looking forward to building snowman

[@henkweurding3339]

That fountain is brilliant, nice video! Thumbs up.

[@mikesorg6746]

I was wondering about Aaron’s truck lol. The fountain is super cool

[@gordonjohnson9470]

Another great video 😊

[@derrickpettit86]

Excellent video as always bud, great commentary, an it's understandable that you have your hands full with tax an the businesss! Are they still hauling wood chips to that one piece of property from Helene, are you guys capturing those wood chips yet, thanks for sharing an I look forward to seeing the next video 🇺🇲👍✊💪🤙🇺🇲

[@TheRealMrDiGG]

Chips stopped for a while

[@wolfpacva]

Get ready for a lot of snow. It is coming this week. You might even see snow in Houston Texas. Have a good trip to Texas.

[@PhilipBerry-h4d]

I just can’t get over the amount of trash yall have brought in to the new cell in such a short amount of time Totally enjoyed the video today Ryan

[@nashneubauer9016]

Curious why you are going with a 30T truck instead of something bigger. Love your videos. You are always sharing your day, and the struggles you encounter. The truth makes your videos something to be proud of!

[@Katifda]

A water hammer could be the cause of your pipe breaking, possibly, the electricity turned off during the storm and allowed air into the pipe, then when it came back on the water compressed the air and exploded the pipe from high pressure, to keep that from happening there needs to be air escape vents installed in the pipe, I don't know if you have them installed already, but for any length of pipe line there needs to be many installed. Back in the 70's I worked for a Water District in Southern California that extended all the way across the south end of the San Joaquin Valley, 40-45 miles, we had many vents in the lines and if the pumps went down, there were times a water hammer would blow out 12", 16" and 18" ACP when started back up (because some kind person that it was fun to close the gate valve that was used to stop the water so to clean the debris from vent). I enjoy your content Ryan, watching from Tahiti.

[@the_Texas_Bandit]

Boy, you're flying into Houston , bad week for it. Ice storm Tues / Wed . You'll love the proving ground. Have fun at the hotel bar. Rest of our town is a dive.

[@glenmel78]

Man, you have to put the excavator on a bench and load the truck below. It will save so much time, fuel, labor, etc. Love the videos. Keep em coming 😊

[@CGT80]

I was thinking the same. It would be ideal to start at the high point at the back and have the trucks drive down the ramp and out the other side, but it may be more travel and it prolongs clearing the bottom. Maybe they could clean out the lower section of the cell and just leave a decent path to work top to bottom.......giving more space in the cell for trash. They wanted to fill bottom up anyway as compaction is better and they won't have the trash ledges to deal with. They need a big excavator and two or three trucks. A 78" bucket on a 120k pound machine can sling dirt fast. It only takes about 3 scoops to fill a super 10 dump truck. We moved out 4500 super 10 loads that way. I'm also surprised they don't run a 40 or 45 ton truck, especially when they are renting and in a time crunch.

[@Cedarsman.]

Hey it's best way to make hiking in the landfill 😁👌👍

[@simpletonsaint]

Waterfall very effective, really love it. Used repair Ruston Bucyrus RB-30 Dragline in the late seventies, driver was so good he could do the egg and cup trick every time!!!!!

[@mykalmcb]

Ryan, How do you set the dumping fee for the landfill. Do you charge more shingles -vs wood? Does the county get involved in setting the fees? Just wondering. Thank you for sharing all you do.

[@jays106]

i have to remember not to be drinking anything when these two get together lol almost had DR. Pepper come out my nose when Aaron said "i have never seen you so happy to spend $4K" lol

[@chriswinters5844]

Just curious, could you do a video on you separating the metal from the construction and debris landfill just saw the video from let’s dig 18. Would love to see that magnet and use again. 👍👍

[@thedelcodave]

Mr. DiGG + AARon= Shenanigans

[@tomtrees58]

nice one thank you

[@joshparkey2018]

Hey Ryan! could you show us how you wash sand?? i would appreciate it !

[@edhammond8709]

I like your videos keep them coming.

[@williambillwaynerobertson930]

Good morning Ryan really enjoy your videos y'all are doing great work, I know those shredders are not cheap but they really help out with taking care of bulk waste by grinding everything up and the doziers can just roll it down the slope and be easier to cover. Have you ran a Cat truck I know part of them are made in central Illinois. Stay Safe and warm bud.

[@alfredomarotta6604]

All of them till full😂😂dang it forgot to count. Safe travels.

[@raymondgochenour8725]

That little shovel brings flashbacks. We used to dig footers underneath the houses with those enjoy your videos.

[@EpicATrain]

It was 3 scoops. :) 👍

[@tugboat2739]

Welcome to Tx

[@homey3051]

. . Why have you not built a triangle stand with a hook on top to hang that pump from so you can go in and be able to lift it and move it around if you need to and not worry about sucking up any mud. I hate to say it but this is not the last water main break you are going to have.

[@tazz1329]

It took 12 buckets to fill the truck.

[@Silverhornet81]

Come on down to Dallas! Funny you mentioned cowboy hats, I am very close to where they make Resistol hats. Get some boots too, gotta have them to go with the hat.

[@rhondasweeney7271]

Why has the pipe been fixed? Texas rocks! Have a good time! Thank you for sharing!😊

[@tsnia57]

So they say that c o a l is that the same level all around the Earth and that things have just piled on it or not piled on it

[@rs2024-s4u]

Use schedule 120 PVC it's pricey but so is an open water line!

[@CGT80]

25:00 Now I want coffee cake.......that sand looks like layers of cinnamon, brown sugar, and white sugar. It would be ideal to start at the high point at the back and have the trucks drive down the ramp and out the other side, but it may be more travel and it prolongs clearing the bottom. It would allow the excavator to sit on a shelf. Maybe you could clean out the lower section of the cell and just leave a decent path to work top to bottom.......giving more space in the cell for trash. You wanted to fill bottom up anyway as compaction is better and that should help prevent the trash ledges to deal with. You need a big excavator and two or three trucks. A 78" bucket on a 120k pound machine can sling dirt fast. It only takes about 3 scoops to fill a super 10 dump truck. We moved out 4500 super 10 loads that way. I'm also surprised you don't run a 40 or 45 ton truck, especially when you are renting and in a time crunch. The big machines aren't cheap, but neither is labor and fuel to run small machines for the sand and dealing with the trash in a way that also seems to waste more resources. White PVC isn't UV stable. I'm not sure what the cost of HDPE is compared to the pvc, but I have fused it for a number of jobs and it is tough stuff. Even new pvc is brittle.

[@coaterdave]

Welcome to Texas. Hope it's a great trip.

[@Th3Mast3rL0ck]

its crazy how much trash has come in since you guys started dumping in the new cell, you can definitely tell the huge amount of shingles, the whole pile has that dark tint showing through.

[@williamatkinson4324]

how many hours on your Volvo rock truck?

[@berkoskilandscaping4247]

Would it make sense to also rent a big like 500 or even larger size excavator to be able to fill the trucks up quicker? That trash is getting awfully close to the sand ramp

[@BeauBreaux-q9b]

I wish I lived closer I’d definitely come try to work with y’all

[@Lonestardiggin]

Where at in Texas do you know?

[@jackhart-l5o]

What part of Texas you coming to Ryan???

[@phil10000]

Ryan look at C&C equipment videos to see his shop but mainly what he did to the floor to keep the tracks from tearing up the concrete and you might save some money on equipment versus buying new you can get 1/2 price.

[@dalety2328]

I have always been intrigued with the varying levels (seams) you can discover when excavating .

[@lewiskibodeaux9435]

Mr. Digg 12 was the count

[@nowwhat413]

Have you ever found any cool old bones or something while digging? Thanks in advance

[@thepubliceye]

I'm confused. With all the water in the sand mine, why buy water for a wash rack? Are you prohibited from drilling your own wells?

[@jerrykelly7052]

thanks you I was just wondering

[@ramtuff2007]

good video

[@henkweurding3339]

The shovel. The Dutch army used it to. You can dig and dig through roots. Standard equipment called, puuterschepje,

[@KevinHarvey-qw5mj]

White sand like silica sand and masonry sand I believe thanks Ryan Mr digg your the best

[@glennwisse6271]

Nice video. We enjoy all of them. I think you need a bigger bucket for the Volvo 290. I’d ask letsdig18. 😊

[@mixtaperadio]

00:22 y'all should get a digital board sign that you can control from a different location. the sign could read open and close.to information trucks trying to deliver

[@cjt1558]

Ryan I really enjoy Your Videos. Curious how Many Gallons or $$’s Would You Estimate You Use/ Spend Per Day In Fuel For The Landfill ?

[@Sean-i4r]

The fountain is a masterpiece of landscapes. I love it.Would you hire someone with little equipment experience?? I can run anything, whatever loader,dozer,excavator, skid steer,tractors,etc.12 cash

[@matthewferguson2515]

Aaron’s comment I’ve never seen you happier to spend 4 grand.

[@jerrykelly7052]

I am in madisonville tx where you going in tx i am between hoston and dallas

[@andrewtodd6706]

You can't beat the volvo A35 a lot quicker and quieter I drove volvo dump trucks for 7 years, fantastic machine. Started at the old volvo 861.

[@tsnia57]

Your A ron pull the weeds a little farther from the piping dip the shovel when you're done with it into the water to clean the sand off it

[@phud9657]

👍👍

[@lenny5355]

It was twelve scoops MrDigg

[@chadboring8933]

Need a bigger bucket on that Komatsu

[@erniehill4357]

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@tnolan3176]

I notice the landfills around me here in Pennsylvania have to install liners after excavating the hole before filling them back in ! I am sure there is a reason why you dont have to use liners !

[@NothingMeansNothing550]

This is a construction and demolition (C&D) landfill so they don't accept things that could contaminate the groundwater.

[@ricardogonzalez2861]

This landfill is a Class 3 landfill (C&D) and they do not require a liner as it is only construction material. On the other hand, Class 1 (Household Garbage) do need a liner for leachate removal and methane gas production. Also to not contaminate the water underground.

[@robertlane3513]

i think it was twelve, Halifax Nova Scotia Canada

[@EpicATrain]

14:00 If this is the second time this has happened, what if you guys moved away from rigid PVC onto something else more durable?

[@tugboat2739]

Howdy Mr DiGG
