Can Construction Debris Be Recycled?

There are three ways to dispose of construction debris: donate it, recycle it, or trash it. Unfortunately, many homeowners and construction companies still trash it which often means it ends up in landfills. At Junk King of Sonoma, we offer construction debris removal that puts an emphasis on repurposing and recycling.

What is Construction Debris?

Excavator and Drill removing debris in street In California, construction and demolition debris includes:

  • Wood
  • Drywall
  • Metal
  • Concrete
  • Glass
  • Insulation
  • Soil
  • Cardboard

Construction debris can make up to 26% of California’s waste stream. With proper planning, a large percentage of this material can be reduced, reused, or recycled.

Eco-Friendly Construction Debris Removal

California’s mandatory green building code, known as CALGreen, requires most new construction jobs to divert at least 50% of their C&D debris. Some local jurisdictions have requirements that exceed this code. Sonoma County’s Zero Waste program includes a section on construction debris removal. The code is updated every three years to better reflect current construction recycling conditions and options.

There are substantial benefits to reusing and recycling construction debris:

  • Saves money by lowering disposal fees and reducing the purchase of new materials.
  • Natural resources are conserved.
  • Landfills take longer to fill up.
  • Methane emissions are reduced as landfill materials break down.

Significant savings and environmental benefits are also achieved when construction companies choose deconstructing instead of demolition. The average savings on a 2,000 square foot home include 2400 gallons of water, 33 mature trees, and the greenhouse gas emissions equivalent of removing three cars from the road for a year.

Junk King of Sonoma’s professional, fast, and green construction debris removal services can help you dispose of all your reusable and recyclable construction materials.

Why Recycle Construction Debris

Each type of construction materials has its own requirements for disposal. Junk King of Sonoma’s experienced crews help you sort through and figure out which construction debris can be recycled, reused, or repurposed, as well as which materials are considered hazardous. There are two ways to recycle construction debris:

  1. Recycling converts waste materials into new products. The goal is to prevent the consumption of new raw materials and energy usage and reduce the amount of waste that ends up in landfills. It also works to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and air and water pollution, preserving natural resources for future generations.
  2. Recovery and recycling takes useful unwanted debris and processes it into new materials or forms of energy for heating, electricity, and fuel.

Since buildings account for about a third of raw material used in the U.S., choosing to recycle is a smart choice that saves natural resources and reduces unnecessary waste.

Recycle Electronics in California

Did you know that in California it’s illegal to throw away your old electronics such as TVs with LCD screens, computers, monitors, batteries, and more? State laws require residents and businesses to keep these devices out of landfills.

When you recycle electronics instead of tossing them in the trash you help keep people, animals, and the environment cleaner and safer. Junk King of Sonoma has experience in disposing of and recycling electronics in compliance with California’s e-waste program.

What is California’s Electronic Waste Program?

Hand placing mobile device in Ewaste canCalifornia collects a recycling fee at the time of purchase on a number of products that are considered hazardous if discarded in landfills. Along with those mentioned above, the list includes portable DVD players with LCD screens, cathode ray tubes (CRTs) and any device containing them, as well as TVs with plasma screens or CRTs.

Since CRTs have mostly been replaced by LCD and LED technology, in 2016 California AB 1419 was signed into law and requires the recycling of panel glass from monitors and televisions.

How to Recycle Electronics

California leads the way in mandating residents and businesses recycle electronics. Today, at least half the e-waste that once ended up in landfills or was illegally shipped overseas is now reused or recycled!

There are basically two ways to recycle electronics: take them to a hazardous waste facility yourself or have an e-waste disposal expert like Junk King of Sonoma handle it for you.

Do’s and Don’ts of Computer Disposal for Sonoma County Businesses

Does your business know the latest rules and regulations for computer disposal in Sonoma? Sonoma’s Zero Waste program identifies computer equipment as an e-waste. That means your business must meet certain disposal guidelines which prohibit discarding computers in trash cans or dumpsters.

Why Donate Computers

Pile of Old ComputersExperts agree that most businesses should replace their computer hardware every three to five years. A report by the EPA found that around 150,000 computers are disposed of each day either by trashing them in landfills or recycling them. One option is obviously better than the other and here’s why.

Computer recycling efforts promote the best reuse of computers and other electronic equipment, keeping them out of landfills and often finding them second homes through charitable organizations and community programs. The benefits to donating and recycling are impressive:

  • Recycling one million laptops saves enough energy to run over 3500 U.S. homes per year.
  • Keeping computers out of landfills can create nearly 300 more jobs annually.

It also helps protect people, animals, and the water supply by keeping excessive amounts of lead out of the environment, preventing serious harm to vital body organs and nervous systems.

Proper Business Computer Disposal in Sonoma

Sonoma County’s recycling laws are focused on eliminating landfill disposal of electronics and other “universal waste” that contains lead, copper, mercury, and cadmium. When you donate your business’ computers, you’re literally doing a world of good, protecting the environment and the planet.

But which computers are worth recycling for their parts, and which should be donated for re-use? If yours is like a lot of businesses, you probably have a storage closet or spare room filled with outdated computers that you’re not sure what to do with.

We understand—you have a business to run. So do we! Junk King of Sonoma will pick up and donate all your discarded electronics, including computers, so you don’t have to stress over what to do with them. Plus, you get to feel good about doing your part for those in need and the world at large.

Safety First

2 Hot tubs inside roomA DIY breakdown is not a hot tub removal idea we support and here’s why.

  • It involves working with power, gas, and water lines.
  • It’s a labor-intensive process and can cause muscle strain or worse injuries.
  • The pieces are not easy to transport, and you may need to hire a truck to do it.

You’ll also need to dispose of the cover and figure out where you can dispose of both it and the hot tub because not all landfills or recycling facilities accept them.

Environmentally Sound Hot Tub Removal

If you’re convinced you shouldn’t handle your hot tub removal on your own, Junk King of Sonoma will do the heavy lifting for you and make sure it’s recycled or properly disposed of in the most eco-friendly way possible.

Before we pick up your hot tub we recommend:

  • Draining all the water out of it by attaching a garden hose to the bottom drain spout and opening the spigot.
  • Disconnecting any hoses.
  • Turning off the heater on the side of the hot tub.
  • Locating the circuit breaker for the hot tub and turning it off.

If there’s any water left in the bottom of the tub after draining it, use a shop vac to clean it up.

Everything You Need to Know About California’s E-waste Recyling Laws

Improper disposal of electronic waste can create serious risks to people, animals, and the environment. Junk King of Sonoma offers safe and secure e waste recycling, removal, and disposal services to make sure you comply with California’s environmental laws.

What is E-waste?

computer cords and motherboardIn California, E-waste refers to any unwanted electronic device or CRT (cathode ray tube) which is classified as “universal waste.” It frequently contains hazardous materials like lead and mercury, and is produced by businesses, households, industries, and governments. As LCD and LED technology for TVs and monitors has for the most part replaced CRTs, the state has enacted AB 1419 for CRT panel glass recycling, an initiative that allows scrap panel glass to be reused in many new products.

E waste Recycling Laws in California

Thanks in large part to SB 20, or the Electronic Waste Recycling Act, California remains the only state that has successfully reined in the illegal disposal of toxic electronics such as TVs, laptops, and computer monitors. Today, half of the e waste that once found its way to landfills or was illegally shipped overseas will be recycled or reused.

There are a number of reporting requirements e waste recycling providers must meet and they must manage e waste in compliance with the Department of Toxic Substances Control’s waste regulations. They are also required to comply with recordkeeping and treatment standards as dictated by state law.

As the electronic waste stream becomes more complex e waste disposal has gotten more complicated, too. The Future of Electronic Waste Management in California project was adopted in 2018 and recommends ways to get the most out of the state’s e waste recycling program.

Junk King of Sonoma is Your E waste Disposal Partner

Globally, the U.S. produces the most e waste per person and California’s leadership in e waste recycling is helping to set in motion national recycling policies.

Call on Junk King for TV Disposal and Recycling

Santa’s sleigh is virtually in sight as the holiday season comes into focus. For millions of Americans that means updating their televisions. This translates into more LED and LCD televisions hitting the streets and making their way into homes. This old-for-new television swap underscores the importance of responsible recycling.

Hands placing TV in dumpster These newer televisions are definitely more eco-friendly than their cathode-ray tube (CRT) predecessors but updating old with new certainly raises a few environmental concerns. But what the heck are CRT televisions? What do they look like? In short, the older CRT televisions were built much thicker and “boxier” than the flatscreens you see today.

These older television (maybe you have one in your basement or attic right now?) need to be responsibly disposed of so that their toxic, harmful components don’t slowly degrade in landfills. If that happens, these older televisions can leach into the soil or water. Clearly, nobody wants that, least of all the planet…The solution?

Environmentally Responsible TV Disposal 

California has very strict laws when it comes to recycling potentially harmful electronics (e-waste) per the Electronic Waste Recyling Act of 2003. The idea there is to reduce the incidence of illegal dumping and the amount of hazardous waste that would otherwise threaten to get into the soil and water through landfills.

Certainly not a bad idea. Fortunately, Junk King can do the heavy lifting in terms of lugging these heavier CRT televisions out of your home. Many homeowners are understandably reluctant to cart off these kinds of televisions because they can be bulky, heavy, and they last for 20 years or more. That longevity and bulkiness means they can collect cobwebs.

These “boxier” CRT televisions can actually be somewhat fragile inside, which is surprising because they look so robust on the outside. The average old television contains eight pounds of lead and other potentially dangerous heavy metals like cadmium and mercury.

In many cases, the glass screen is all that’s holding in these heavy metals from polluting the environment. No bueno! The other thing to bear in mind is that these older televisions can’t be left out on the curb and taken away, easy-peasy, by the munipical trash service. That’s where Junk King comes in.

Call on Junk King for Donation or Recycling 

Ready for a junk free life? Junk King can help you donate or recyle your obsolete television so that the potentially hazardous components can stay out of landfills or perhaps be put to use by a needy family or recycled for other means. The average family updates their television every few years and might have one or two lingering about in their homes, so the supply is definitely there.

The decision of whether to donate or recycle in terms of tv disposal will invariably boil down to whether your old television actually turns on and functions or not. If your CRT television or older LED television turns on but has been replaced ans shelved, then donation might make more sense. If your television doesn’t even function or the screen is cracked, then recycling wins out.

Junk King will haul away a variety of electronic (e-waste) including but not limited to: old copier machines (residential and commerical), computers (laptops and desktops), monitors, printers, shredders, and of course televisions (both CRT and flat screen televisions are taken by Junk King). TV disposal doesn’t need to be difficult.

Though folks tend to think about the precious, semi-precious, and heavy metals in these devices as harmful to the environment, they’re also labor intensive to mine and could be valuable in their own right. Copper, silver, gold, and palladium are tough to find and mine – they are also valuable and can be recovered from obsolete cell phones and other electronic devices.

Set up an appointment with Junk King to kick off the process of being more environmentally conscious with your e-waste and keeping these valubale, finite resources (e..g, gold and palladium) in circulation through recyling. Book online and save $20 on your next appointment!

Top 6 Benefits of Hiring a Construction Waste Removal Company

Doing away with construction debris can be a tedious and costly assignment. Materials like steel, drywall, broken concrete, and wood are hard to dispose of without hurting the environment or clashing with the authorities. It may prove cheaper and more convenient cleaning after small constructions yourself, but larger projects require a professional construction waste removal company. Here’s why:

1. Safe removal is guaranteed

Tractor digging up AsphaltThere is some safety risk involved in handling leftover construction materials such as glass, iron, ceramic, broken concrete, and wood. Professional junk removal service providers have the right equipment to handle different types of waste without putting your family or employees’ safety in jeopardy. Unless you have the expertise and proper safety gear for he job, don’t do it yourself.

2. It saves time

Construction waste removal can be extremely time-consuming, especially if you have to juggle it with work or business. Most season service providers have adequate personnel and equipment for large scale assignments and will probably be done cleaning up the construction site in a single day. This not only helps you focus on your job but also ensures the newly-constructed structure can be put to use in the shortest time possible. Professional junk hauling services may prove even more useful if you want to host a party in honor of the new building and need the site to look neat and devoid of pieces of wood, nails, broken concrete, and other forms of clutter.

3. It comes with insurance protection

Filing a personal injury claim is not always a smooth process, especially if you are the party at fault for the injury. Investigations will consider such factors as the use of helmets and other safety gear, and a small safety standard violation could render your claim invalid. By hiring a professional junk removal service provider, you are almost entirely ridding yourself of the prospect of picking up an injury in the first place. Reputable companies are insured and guarantee compensation for any harm or property damage caused during the waste hauling exercise.

4. It may be cheaper!

Contrary to popular notion, DIY is not always the economical option! Choosing to haul away the junk yourself may make you less productive at work, setting you back a fortune in the long run. Consider assigning the work to a professional to avoid the costly fatigues and potential injuries that come with it.

5. Junk removal experts know where to dump the waste

Based on the material in question, construction debris removal companies know exactly where to take the junk. You will not have to go through the hassle of locating a suitable dump site for your waste. Even if you did, transporting the trash there would prove too costly and inconveniencing for someone who has other things to attend to. Some reputable junk hauling companies have connections with recycling centers for specific materials and will probably have all the waste reprocessed, much to the benefit of the environment.

6. It guarantees a total clean-up

Objects such as nails, hinges, screws, and miniature pieces of broken concrete are easy to miss if this is your first time cleaning up after a construction. Such materials are a safety hazard to employees, family members, and pets, and may prove harder to spot as time goes. A seasoned construction waste removal company is in a better position to handle the fiddly, helping ensure the construction site is clean and safe for everyone to use.

Regardless of the size of the construction, it is advisable to have an expert take care of the waste for you. Contact us today if you are in Marin County, CA for a free quotation and more information about our services.

The Value of Hiring Professional Hot Tub Removal Services

A newly installed hot tub can be an exciting addition to any property. It is an investment that introduces better relaxation and can also be a source of awakening romance. What is not exciting is the thought of it breaking down. After about a decade of use, your hot tub may be rendered useless and require you to have it removed.  In that case, hot tub removal may be the only solution to cutting costs.

Hiring a Professional for Your Hot Tub Removal

The process of removing an old hot tub is labor-intensive, and you also need to be sure of where to haul the pieces once it is removed. Some spas are made of steel, other fiberglass versions, and so much more.  Can these broken pieces fit in your car, and where should you responsibly dispose them of? Choosing a professional junk removal company to dispose of your spa eliminates the hassle of dealing with heavy-duty equipment.

It also offers you a safe and eco-friendly manner of removal. You will only show them where the tub is for quick transportation and processing. A hot tub requires expertise to remove and dispose of and must be done with specific tools. As much as you may want to cut costs by opting for a DIY process, you will still be required to transport it and cover landfill costs. Breaking the old spa and dumping it in your yard can be an eyesore not just for the residents but your visitors too.

Save Time and Money

A professional junk removal company has the necessary resources to get the job done. They also use the right equipment to manage the disposal safely. An expert removal company also offers transport and the processing of the hot tub. This saves you money and time. What’s more, professional removal prevents pollution and severe health effects by removing the hot tub in an eco-friendly manner.  The right techniques are used to minimize adverse effects on the environment.

Professionals are trained on the best ways of removing spas and hauling them out of a yard. They have a variety of tools and tricks to get the job done right, quickly, and efficiently while also reducing damage to your property. With an expert, you are assured that the spa is hauled away in an eco-friendly manner and recyclable parts are kept out of the landfill. Professionals are also careful to follow the rules and regulations for hot tub removal. This guarantees proper rubbish disposal with reduced environmental effects.

The Cost of Removal

The cost of removing a hot tub largely depends on the manufacturer, size, and its condition. You can get several quotes from local providers and be keen to go through reviews on their websites. The services offered should include a truck and an experienced crew. Be sure there are no hidden fees to the service provided. Preparing your tub for removal can save you extra costs. For instance, disconnect the plumbing and the power, drain all the water and keep the tub dry, and clear a removal path by ensuring there are no obstacles.

Whether you are selling your home with an old hot tub or are remodeling, you may need to get rid of your spa. Hot tubs are cumbersome and heavy, meaning that hauling them away without the aid of a professional service provider can be impractical. Hot tub removal can also be time consuming and messy. You will need a professional to make the removal job easy and safe. A professional will ensure every part of the tub is sorted for disposal, donation, or recycling.

Local Junk Pickup: The Value of Expert Junk Removal and Hauling

Owning a large truck is never a good enough reason to carry out junk removal on your own. In business, every decision involves expenditure. Hauling unwanted junk is one of them. It involves expenses. However, it is more cost-effective to allocate this task to an expert junk removal service.

Junk removal specialists offer different services, including site cleanup, hauling off newspaper stacks, and unnecessary items. If you have had a construction project, a junk removal expert can take away the debris and waste that accumulate soon after your project. Here is why you need a professional local junk pick up company.

Recycling Benefits

If the disposing of waste keeps pace, the landfill space will quickly run out, and water and the air will be polluted. Most junk pick up specialist are environment conscious. They know that recycling is a good practice that prevents harmful effects on the environment.

Most of the waste products are recyclable. Old furniture, including sofas, mattresses, beds, among others, can also be recycled to ease the stuffed garages and yards. Metal can also be turned into scrap metal to form other useful products.

The higher the amount of junk recycled, the lower the amount of it will go to the landfills. Hauling in an eco-friendly manner can ensure that we live in a clean environment. Some companies reuse and donate some of the items to charities.

Cost-Effective

You save more by hiring a professional local junk pick up company rather than doing it yourself. These companies have experts who carry out rubbish cleanup professionally. They know the risks involved with every type of junk. Some of the risks are hazardous and can harm the environment and living things when not correctly disposed of.

They are also equipped to handle any potential risks. In some states, you are also required to hire specialists to haul industrial waste, or any junk deemed hazardous. Because it is easier to get rid of a bag of trash, ensure that your service provider can also handle heavy machinery.

Most companies do not handle hazardous waste, so check if your potential service provider has the capacity. Ensure you are getting the best value for your money. Your service provider may give an estimate in terms of cubic yardage of your junk. After getting the estimate, get several local quotes and compare.

Proper Knowledge and Right Equipment

Efficiency and knowledge are crucial for every credible waste removal company. Having the right equipment is also an essential requirement. Professional service providers are knowledgeable on how to handle every type of waste and the process to follow especially when handling toxic waste.

Ensure your preferred company has the right trucks, tools, and expertise to haul your junk efficiently. Consider the company ready to haul away your waste, sweep up, and leave your compound clutter-free and clean.

Avoid Legal Issues

Working with a licensed professional to get rid of your waste eliminates potential legal risks. Disposing of the waste on your own or with the help of an unscrupulous dealer can increase risk. The high chances are; the waste may be disposed of in the wrong place and the wrong way. Experts follow the local disposal laws and regulations to avoid court cases and hefty penalties.

When it comes to local junk pick up, it is important that you choose a credible and certified waste removal company. The company must be fully insured and licensed to operate locally. A DIY process may seem more manageable but presents many complications. The best junk removal company knows that excellent customer service is the core of successful services.
