Being green and recycling is very big these days. You can recycle everything from paper to clothing and yes, even homes. According to MSN, more people are choosing to deconstruct their houses versus demolishing them. Apparently, so many materials can be salvaged and used in other instances, about 75% to 90% of a house. Think cabinetry, flooring, appliances and more. Even roof shingles can be reused, cinder blocks as well.
About 270,000 homes are being demolished every year in America, with most of it ending up in landfills. That’s an astonishing amount of timber alone, enough to make tens of thousands of homes. It also can be financially worth it to recycle versus demolish because a contractor can charge you thousands of dollars to do the job and also get rid of the debris.
If you’re not recycling your home but instead moving into a new area, call the local Jacksonville movers for professional help moving services. We’re backed by four generations of movers and moving offices across the U.S. from Salt Lake City to Maryland and Nashville.
