Construction & Demolition Recycling​

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.
