Protected Areas
Much of our tire and trash work takes place in sensitive or protected areas where other contractors could cause damage to the riparian or surrounding areas. Our low impact methods insure that the tires and debris are not only removed , but often without the need for a permit. Even protected wetlands and other highly regulated areas often require no permit when extracting the tires and trash using our methods. The process is labor intensive, but the results are minimal disturbance to the area.
"Impossible" Locations
Many legacy dumps are in areas that are very difficult to access. Some are along deep ravines and large cliffs, or a at high bridges and hidden locations. River Rangers specializes in removal of trash and tires from locations that are extremely difficult to access or would require access roads to be built in order to get heavy equipment into the work site. River Rangers methods allow for access to areas that heavy equipment cannot traverse, or would require extra, unnecessary work to facilitate removal of the tires and trash. River Rangers employ methods that require no heavy equipment to remove the tires and trash.

Safe and Clean
All tires, scrap metal, and other recyclable materials are transported off sited to approved recycling facilities. Any trash gathered from these dump sites that cannot be recycled is properly disposed of. The end result is high value, low impact remediation and beautification of areas that have been polluting the environment for years or even decades.
