EPA Construction and Demolition Materials

The federal environmental agency page on managing construction and demolition materials, including reducing waste and recovering usable material.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency publishes a page on the sustainable management of construction and demolition materials. It describes the kinds of material that come from building, remodeling and demolition and explains ways to reduce waste and recover material. For owners and builders in Nashville, it is a clear overview of why separating clean wood, metal and concrete can matter and what the general options are.

We are a private company and are not part of the EPA. We help you apply general ideas on a real project by suggesting simple steps, such as separate containers for heavy debris or clean wood. For rules that apply to your property, your material or your project, we encourage you to read the official guidance and confirm with the officials involved.
