There is more than 50,000 tons of waste generated from construction and demolition (C&D) projects annually in Vermont. A great deal of C&D can be reused or recycled, which can make a large impact on resource conservation and landfill diversion.
Businesses and Organizations Accepting Used Materials
Other than certified solid waste facilities, there is a variety of building salvage, reuse, and antique stores that look for quality used building materials, fixtures, and appliances.
In addition, there are many facilities around the state that will accept single materials, such as concrete, brick, or a combination of several types. To locate a certified solid waste facility, visit the Vermont Materials Management Map.
Please Note: As of July 1, 2016, clean wood is banned from landfills.
For more information on C&D waste recycling, please visit the Agency of Natural Resources, Department of Environmental Conservation Construction and Demolition Recycling.
Construction and demolition debris is accepted at the Windham Solid Waste Management District during normal business hours.
