Construction & Demolition

Find Certified C&D and Reuse Facilities

CALGreen requires at least 65% percent diversion of waste generated during most construction, remodel, and demolitions projects. To increase your project’s diversion of waste from the landfill, consider deconstruction and reuse of materials first. Deconstruction is the best way to maintain the value of your C&D materials.

Zero Waste Marin recommends using a Certified Facility to ensure proper recycling of construction and demolition (C&D) debris materials including wood, metal, asphalt, brick, concrete, tile and other waste. Ever wonder what happens to a debris box full of C&D Materials? Read this article to find out more. To learn more about deconstruction, read this article.

Make C&D recycling for your project easy:

  • Consider reuse and/or deconstruct first
  • Take all C&D materials to a Zero Waste Marin Certified Facility
  • Save and submit documentation of recycling

Get Started

Every applicant must download and complete the Construction C&D Recycling Plan and turn in the first two pages to your jurisdiction’s building department before starting work.

Prior to Final Inspection

If using the Easy Method, submit the Post Construction Recycling Documentation Form (pages 3-4 of the C&D Recycling Plan) along with documentation of recycling.

If using the Advanced Method, submit the Post Construction Documentation Form (pages 3-4 of the Construction Waste Management Plan) along with documentation of recycling.

Treated Wood Waste Update

Assembly Bill 332 (AB 332 – Quirk) restores the alternative management standards for treated wood waste. As a result, variances are no longer needed for disposal facilities, handlers, and generators of treated wood waste. A link to the AB 332 statute language is found here and the link to the updated Department of Toxic Substances Control page is found here.
