Make the most of construction cleanup

Construction can generate a lot of debris—but a lot of the material that gets discarded can be reused. Anything from concrete and flooring tiles to fixtures and doors to materials like wood, metal, bricks and glass can be recycled. It takes a bit more planning than just calling the junk man—but that effort can reduce hauling costs, eliminate high landfill fees, and contribute to the production of lower-cost recycled products. It’s also just plain good for the environment.
