Answer:
in general - there are 3 different type of land fills:
1) municipal solid waste: most household trash are thrown here - includes everything from food waste to things thrown from attic cleaning
2) industrial waste: includes most industrial waste like concrete, lumber, bricks, metals etc. the materials are segregated into those that can be recycled and those that cannot be. recyclable materials are further sold as scrap or donated to brought by resale stores
3) hazardous waste: designed to hold hazardous waste that should not be released to environment. these sites are mostly regulated.
