I photographed another Maxi-Dump piece of equipment at this very location nearly eight years ago. The name still makes me laugh.
To prepare for our new art studio, we demolished old sheds and took them to the local dump..
The Marin Resource Recovery Center is an indoor dump that’s about the size of three football fields. Built in 1987, it gives Marin County residents a clean, enclosed environment to dispose of solid waste.
Each month, the Resource Recovery Center processes nearly 3,000 tons of recyclables, according to the Marin Sanitary Service. They say the center may be the most sophisticated recycling facility in the country, with visitors from around the world coming to observe its state-of-the-art system.
This was a fun experience, with bulldozers zipping by across the pit, moving the debris we just dumped into a series of screens, conveyors, blowers, magnets, and hand-sorting separates dirt, sand, metal, wood, concrete, paper, and other materials for recovery.
Overall, everything went smooth as silk, and only took about half a day for the demolition and half a day for the dump run.
It was a great feeling to finally get rid of some of these old art debris to make room for the new sheds. Truly liberating!

3 August 2017. A pile of rubbish left on the pavement in High Road Tottenham near Scotland Green. I took this photo at 4:26 pm on a Thursday - a workday.
There are three signs on the lamppost about waste collection. The topmost sign specifies two daily time slots for putting out domestic and commercial waste for collection: 9:00 am - 10:00 am and 9.30pm - 11:00 pm. This rubbish was on the pavement outside those permitted hours, so it counts as dumping.
The middle sign seem to suggest the dumping problem is caused by a group of people described as 'fly-tippers'. We know that there are indeed people whose illegal business is getting paid to cheaply remove and dump other people's trash. The middle sign has a photo of two men with pixillated heads inside red circles, walking along a street and doing a bit of dumping. They represent these 'bad guys'
We're told that Haringey Council's enforcement staff are pursuing these fuzzy figures. Who could "face a £400 fine or get a criminal record."
Here's an alternative explanation. My guess is that the dumpers around the lamppost - as in many other places - are mostly a few dozen 'ordinary' people not in the 'fly-tipping' business. I suspect they are likely to be local residents, traders, and maybe landlords, who regularly leave small items of rubbish. Perhaps one or two bags. Or add some litter to an existing pile as they walk by.
Everyone rightly assumes the waste will be picked-up eventually by someone paid to do it. (Probably not paid very much.) They are right. Twice every day Veolia, Haringey Council's waste contractor stops by.
The out-of-hours trash pile contributors may guess that it's highly unlikely they'll get caught and fined. Especially as Haringey Council has been steadily sacking its enforcement staff, who are needed for the Council to take effective large-scale action and break the cycle.
If I am right, then Haringey's waste management "system" helps to produce these unwanted consequences. Observing the daily dumped rubbish, some residents and businesses decide that the specified collection times are more or less fictional. Which may further encourage a few people to leave rubbish there at any time, assuming that the pile will be cleared, without a risk that their personal donation will be traced back to them.
Giant dump trucks - taken with home made tilt-shift lens. Came out pretty well even though I was moving with ~65 mph.
Just uploading a couple of examples of Stymie Italic lettering that I've been sitting on for a while. This somewhat distressed example was noted during March. It looks as though the second I in "Engineering" must have dropped off, Sunshine Desserts style, and been rather carelessly reaffixed. I'm not too sure about that small, supplementary sign in the bottom left corner. If it were thought undesirable to renew the whole sign ...and plainly this is not something they go in for very often here... then a discreet plaque next to the front door would have been preferable. These things create an impression. So too bleached, moisture-blotched copies of Auto Trader stuffed into window frames to exclude draughts.
Some new faces came thru the dump along with the usuals. It's becoming quite a collection, so I created an album for all the dump dogs :-)

N.B. Contrary to rumours apparently circulating on the Internet, the new movie of Alice in Wonderland was not shot in Rosebery Avenue, Tottenham, London N17.
And unlike the book of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland this green bag does not even have a neat instruction label which says - for example - DUMP ME.
And it isn't even dumped.
The green bag is part of the 'official' waste management system. Street cleaners working for Haringey Enterprise - the Council's waste contractors - leave the bags in prominent locations awaiting collection.
Which then models similar behaviour by a minority of residents and traders who treat the nearby pavements as convenient, all-hours, waste collection pick-up points.
