Recycling Construction and Demolition Debris
How separating materials reduces cost and landfill volume.
What can be diverted
Clean concrete, brick, metal, cardboard and untreated wood all have recycling outlets in the Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky region.
Metal is worth separating
Scrap steel, copper and aluminum have salvage value. Pulling metal out of a mixed load can meaningfully lower your disposal weight.
Keep clean fill clean
One pallet of wood thrown into a concrete container turns an inexpensive clean-fill load into an expensive mixed load.
Documentation
