Renovating? 3 Tips to get Eliminate the Remains

1. Donate

In the event your stuff’s in half-decent condition, there’s probably a drop-off donation center willing to accept it. Habitat for Humanity has a national network of home improvement stores stocked by donations. They take anything from light fixtures and appliances to counter tops and windows.

2. Reclaim, reuse, recycle

Roll up old carpet and use the Carpet America Recovery Effort website to locate a company in your area that will reclaim, recycle or reuse it. Talk with your municipality to determine if they recycle any other types of construction material. The Construction and Demolition Recycling Association will assist you to locate local businesses that will take materials such as asphalt shingles, gypsum drywall and concrete.

3. Options for paint

PaintCare is undoubtedly an organization that works on behalf of paint manufacturers in states with paint stewardship laws to set up places to safely recycle and dispose of unwanted paint. Many municipalities have drop-off days for oil-based paint, which happens to be considered household hazardous waste.
