Construction & Demolition Recycling
Construction & Demolition Recycling in Vancouver
Vancouver Asbestos Removal™ specializes in managing waste materials that cannot be easily recycled, with an emphasis on asbestos-containing materials. We possess the knowledge and resources required to provide safe and efficient waste management solutions that ensure compliance with all relevant regulations.
There is always a need for industrial, commercial, and residential development services across Vancouver. However, construction projects generate significant amounts of waste materials that are difficult to recycle. Asbestos-containing materials, in particular, require specialized handling and disposal methods to minimize the risk of airborne exposure to harmful fibers.
Without effective means to remove waste materials, you can face a work stop order.

Asbestos Testing
We start with certified asbestos testing to identify any hazardous materials in your property before removal begins.

Safe Containment & Removal
If asbestos is found, we seal off the room and use WorkSafeBC protocols to safely remove the ceiling texture without contaminating other areas.

All waste is transported to licensed disposal facilities. We then clean the site thoroughly, and can arrange air quality testing for peace of mind.

We Recycle All Types of Construction Materials
Construction and demolition projects often leave behind large amounts of waste — from old building materials to torn-out fixtures and structural debris. While some of it ends up in the landfill, many materials can be safely recycled and reused if handled properly. At Vancouver Asbestos Removal™, we’re committed to helping clients manage waste responsibly through certified recycling solutions across the Greater Vancouver Area.
The most commonly recycled construction and demolition materials include:
Clean wood and lumber — such as framing offcuts, plywood, and subfloor
Particleboard and composite panels — found in cabinets, shelving, and trim
Asphalt shingles — removed from residential and low-slope commercial roofs
Green waste — like branches, shrubs, and landscaping debris
Concrete and concrete with rebar — from foundations, walkways, and driveways
Drywall — including scrap gypsum board from renovations
Scrap metal and steel — from framing, wiring, plumbing, and fixtures
While these materials are often seen as waste, many of them can be broken down, repurposed, or processed into new products. Recycling helps reduce landfill pressure, lower disposal costs, and support cleaner construction practices.
If your project includes recyclable debris, our team can help sort, remove, and transport the materials to approved facilities. Whether you’re managing a demolition site or cleaning up after a remodel, Vancouver Asbestos Removal™ offers reliable, eco-conscious recycling services that keep your job site clean and compliant from start to finish.

Our Abatement Process
Inspection & Lab Testing
We start with a professional site assessment and collect material samples. These are sent to a certified lab to confirm the presence and type of asbestos.
Containment & Preparation
We seal off affected areas using industry-standard containment systems and negative air pressure to protect surrounding spaces during removal.
Safe Removal & Disposal
Our licensed technicians remove asbestos safely, following WorkSafeBC protocols. Waste is double-bagged and disposed of at approved hazardous waste facilities.
Final Clearance & Report
A final inspection ensures the site is safe. We can arrange third-party air clearance testing and provide full documentation for your records or compliance.
