Description

Construction waste management is being addressed in every aspect of the construction process, from design to build. There are steps that can used and companies that can be trusted to deal with this issue. Simply by following the mantra Reduce Reuse and Recycle, construction companies can do their part. Reduce the materials, space and energy needed to complete a project can contribute to savings. Reuse materials, resources and possibly buildings to once again limit the materials and energy needed on a project. Lastly recycle products used to stop materials from ending up in landfills when they can be used again in future building materials or alternative materials with a lower impact on the environment. Details and examples on how companies and construction managers can contribute will be outlined in the following results.
