Construction Progress - Part XXV

Furniture is starting to go into the new MSU Surplus Store and Recycling Center as we are in the home stretch of finishing the new facility. On the exterior the landscaping and paving have been finished and just fences and gates are yet to be installed. The MSU Recycling processing area is fully functional with lots of bails being churned out already.

On the interior we have most all of the major elements of the building finished with just the continued installation of the furniture to be completed. Carpets, cabinets, and counter tops have all be installed and the framework for the modular furniture has been finished.

Remember to keep checking back for more updates! Also don't forget that we have a compilation of all of the constructions photos available. We would also like to thank Irish Construction Company who has been very gracious in allowing us access and keeping us up to date with the progress of construction.

Work is still continuing both inside and outside as sidewalks and parking lots are being paved.The ceilings are installed and electrical wires are being run.

The most exciting new feature is a large block S located by the MSU Surplus Store main entrance. It will be visible from Green Way (our new road) to make it easy to locate our main entrance.

Inside most of the large MSU Recycling equipment is installed, including the sort line and baler . The rain water retention bins that store gray water for use in the building are installed, including much of the pipes to collect and move this water.

Construction Progress - Part XXII

It has been a while since we've had an update on the new facility. Today we have a very large update of photos, including some major new additions. Starting on the exterior of the building, the good weather has allowed the start on many of the sidewalks around the building including the MSU Surplus Store Outside Covered Sales Area. Many of the roadways and parking areas are being graded and leveled throughout the job site. A major new addition is the truck scale located on the southwest corner of the facility, where MSU Surplus Store and MSU Recycling trucks will be able to weigh materials that are being processed through the facility. On the north side of the site we also have the start of the MSU Recycling drop off area, which will provide 24 hour access to recycling containers for MSU students, faculty and staff.

The largest new feature on the inside of the facility is the large conveyor, sorting line and baler in the MSU Recycling processing area. This equipment assists in moving items into sorting containers and then moves the product to the compactor for preparation for shipment to off site recycling facilities. Many of the finish items such as doors, electrical and networking outlets have been installed as the buildings completion date approaches.

Remember to keep checking back for more updates! Also don't forget that we have a compilation of all of the constructions photos available. We would also like to thank Irish Construction Company who has been very gracious in allowing us access and keeping us up to date with the progress of construction.

Map to our New Building and Artist Renderings

We have an early version of the new MSU Campus Map that includes our new facility and roads that we will be close by. We are currently located on the left side of the map and will be moving to our new location just off of Farm Lane on the right side of the map. There will be two new roads that will be bordering our building; Green Way on the north side running East/West and then Recycling Road that will provide access from Service Road. You can also see where the MSU Recycling drop off will be located. It will allow for easy drive through access to recycling containers 24 hours a day.

We also have added some artist rendering of the completed MSU Surplus Store and Recycling Center. We have an aerial drawing and a few ground level drawings of the new building. In addition we have artist rendering of the MSU Recycling Center public drop-off for MSU employees and students and of the MSU Recycling processing floor and material flow.

Solar Panels

Last time we had ground photos of the new MSU Surplus Store and Recycling Center's solar panels from the roof, now we have some closer photos taken from the roof which show the panels in much greater detail. This system will have a real time display in the lobby to show electricity generated. Current estimates are that over 7.5% of the buildings energy will be provided from this renewable energy source.

Also be sure to check out the list of other LEED certification items for the new building.

Friday Finds

Reuse is what the MSU Surplus Store is all about. I'm always fascinated by uses people come up with for surplus finds, especially when their creations are turned into revenue. One of my favorite web sites these days is Etsy - "Your place to buy & sell all things handmade". Many items on this site are from reused or re-purposed items. If you can't find anything to buy, maybe you've got something to sell.

Please don't hesitate to share with us how you reuse items bought at the MSU Surplus Store.

The detail work on the new MSU Surplus Store and Recycling Center is continuing as many smaller projects are being completed through out the building. One of the largest projects is the installation of the roof solar panels on the south end of the building. The pads for outdoor materials collection and storage for compost, scrap metal and other materials has been finished on the South East side of the building. The rain water collection and retention system is also still being installed in some areas as the drainage pipes are being connected to the main storage area which now has the concrete retention based poured and installed. On the interior of the building most all of the ceilings and walls on the MSU Surplus Store side of the building have been completed and the offices areas have the finishing touches being done on the walls and start of ceiling installation. In the MSU Recycling processing area the HVAC and radiant heating elements are now going in as the main receiving docks have been finished in this area.

MSU Compost It’s Good “Stuff”

They are selling my what?!?!?
MSU Cow

MooPoo, yes we sell it and it is actually really great "stuff". As one of the premier agricultural schools in country MSU currently produces approximately 10,000 cubic yards of compost annually and has been doing so since 2005. Our facility has three indoor 120 foot bays where manure is mixed and turned until heating requirements of 132 degrees Fahrenheit is achieved. The temperature remains 132 degrees for a minimum of 72 hours. It is then turned three times a week which helps to reduce weed seeds and pathogens. It meets MDOT criteria and U.S. EPA part 503 temperature criteria for pathogen kill. It also exceeds generally accepted weed seed kill criteria, and germination tests on prior batches show 0% germination of any weed seeds.

Here are just some of the potential benefits of using compost

  • Improves soil structure
  • Improves nutrient holding capacity
  • Reduces soil compaction and crusting
  • Increases ease of cultivation
  • Improves root growth and yields
  • Improves water infiltration and drought tolerance
  • Protects plants from disease
  • Increases microbial and earthworm populations

We offer a couple of different products to fit your needs whether you are a large farm or just someone with a backyard garden.

We have uncured compost that is available for $6 a cubic yard with a minimum order of 20 yards.

We also have cured compost for $20 a cubic yard that is available here at the MSU Surplus Store.

Construction Progress - Part XX

Construction at the MSU Surplus Store and Recycling Center continues as some of the detail items are starting to show up inside and outside the new facility. On the outside, the screen wall separating the MSU Surplus Store and MSU Recycling has been completed with the addition of the wire mesh for green plants to grow on. This should create a great looking and helpful visual screen for the processing side of MSU Recycling. On the inside, the biggest change is the newly poured floors in the MSU Recycling processing area, so now all floors have been installed throughout the building. In the other areas we have paint going up on many of the walls. The MSU Surplus Store's sales floor and the MSU Storage area there is now paint going up on its internal masonry walls. The internal offices also now have paint up on many of the walls as we come closer and closer to our late summer early fall completion date.

Remember to keep checking back for more updates! Also don't forget that we have a compilation of all of the constructions photos available. We would also like to thank Irish Construction Company who has been very gracious in allowing us access and keeping us up to date with the progress of construction.

Furniture Reuse

In addition to electronics recycling we have many customers who contact us looking for us to take furniture or other items that they no longer need. While we currently do not accept donations from the public there are places in the local area that do take these items. The city of East Lansing has a great list of local agencies that accept donations. Also be sure to check out your local area for reuse events, there people from the local community can bring items they no longer need and also take items that may have a need for.

Home e-Waste Recycling

Many of our customers call or e-mail asking about e-waste recycling for personal computers. The MSU Surplus Store maintains a very large e-waste recycling program for items purchased by the University. We are currently planning on accepting e-waste for fee from students, faculty and staff when we move into our new facility. In the mean time, here is a nice resource put together buy Wired magazine that provides several tips for the reuse and recycling of computers, phones and other "gadgets": Reduce, Reuse, Recycle Your Old Gadgets

Wired must be on an e-waste kick. Here's a great gallery of pictures: Where Gadgets Go to Die: Facility Strips, Rips and Recycles

Construction continues at the MSU Surplus Store and Recycling center, as there have been some more updates to the exterior of the building as well as the interior. On the outside, work has focused on the completion of the roofing system (90% complete), the completion of the roof over the MSU Surplus Store vestibule entrance and the start of the water retention pond on the southeast end of the site. On the interior all the masonry work has been completed (only washing/cleaning remains) and much of the interior drywall has been finished in the interior office areas. The MSU Surplus Store and the MSU Storage areas now have paint on many of the walls. In the MSU Recycling processing floor additional floor drains have been added and temporary heat has been installed to start the pouring of the processing area's floors. Mechanically much has been completed as the power to the building has been completed and permanent power systems should be online shortly. Again the project is expected to be done in time for the beginning of the 2009-10 school year.

Construction Progress - Part XVIII

With the improving weather (temperature wise at least) work resumes on the exterior portions of the new MSU Surplus Store and Recycling Center. The screen wall that is located between the MSU Surplus Store/office area and the MSU Recycling processing area has started to go up. This wall will be a combination of brick wall and natural vegetation screening to separate the two areas of the complex. On the interior of the building HVAC and electrical continues to be installed through out the facility and the interior office areas have had their electrical and drywall installed. Hopefully with the continuing improving weather the floors should be poured in the Recycling processing area soon.
