Unlike any other community in Northwest Georgia, residents of Whitfield County have access to unique waste management facilities that go beyond everyday garbage. The Dalton-Whitfield Regional Solid Waste Management Authority (DWSWA) provides a variety of options for recycling that have transformed the way Whitfield County manages its waste. These recycling efforts have earned the DWSWA the “2009 Spirit of Green” award from the Georgia Recycling Coalition. But going green doesn’t stop there. The DWSWA also manages a Household Hazardous Waste program, a Landfill Gas to Energy project and a Wetland Mitigation Bank along the Conasauga River.
