Construction Debris Recycling and Disposal

Waste Management works with you to build Construction & Demolition (C&D) recycling and disposal programs that can keep your projects on time and on budget — and benefit the environment.

Backed by our innovative sorting technology and diversion initiatives, we make C&D recycling easy-to-use, cost-effective and compliant with both your project plan and city ordinances.

Watch more about how construction debris is recycled.

Your material becomes part of the solution.

You can recycle most common C&D materials with Waste Management, including metals, rebar, asphalt, concrete, brick & stone, cardboard, wood, plastics, drywall/gypsum, acoustic tiles, glass, carpet, plaster, ceramic tile, insulation and shingles. Then, we find ways to turn old materials into new resources. Here are a few examples:

  • Used C&D inerts become road base
  • Cardboard, paper, plastics and metals convert into new goods
  • Clean wood transforms into mulch or biomass fuel
  • Crushed concrete turns into gravel or dry aggregate for new concrete
