Winter construction, while typical in the sunnier parts of the country, is a bit harder in other regions. But they all require construction debris removal.

Because of the cold and the weather, that part of the job can be just as challenging as the actual work of building. junk hauling becomes a challenge. And it's not a job anyone on your crew really wants to do anyway.

Working in a Winter Wonderland? Maybe Not So Much

It's winter in the United States, but in places like California, the construction work continues.

Whether it’s large commercial projects or smaller residential jobs, the industry still manages to carry on through most of the winter months. Which means that construction debris removal is still required for all the trash that has to be hauled off site and disposed of.

Trash from material packaging, cutoffs of material, scrap, demolition debris, are the normal by-products of a building project. But cleaning all this up, hauling it out, and disposing of it is not really a job anyone wants to do. Except that someone’s got to do it!

The good news, however, is that much of the waste materials from housing (and even commercial) construction can be reused, refurbished, or recycled into usable and resalable products. This is important for contractors since landfill space in the U.S. is diminishing rapidly.

And this is why debris and junk disposal alternatives such as reusing and recycling waste materials are better options.

In addition, C&D (construction and demolition) waste recycling allows contractors and builders an opportunity to contribute to environmental sustainability. However, too many contractors simply delegate this job to their crew and let them haul everything to the nearest dump, if possible.

How To Improve Your Winter Construction Debris Removal

Although larger construction companies often have the resources and manpower to clean and haul away their debris, it is still an undesirable chore. And not every contractor can or wants to be tasked with their own construction debris removal.

It is time-consuming and takes resources away from the production side of their job. That's because the people who are engaged in cleaning up the job site are not engaged in building on the job site!

One common option is to hire a local trash-hauling service, often someone with an available truck and is ready to make a few bucks. But this can be risky for you and often inefficient. Outsourcing really is the beast option, and the best and most cost-effective approach is to outsource your construction debris removal tasks to a professional firm.

In addition, it can be both cost-effective and possible profitable to practice recycling and repurposing your waste materials and construction debris, whenever possible.

Recycle and Repurpose Waste Materials and Debris Whenever Possible

As a contractor you know that probably the easiest way to get rid of your construction site waste and debris is to simply haul it off and dump it somewhere. Dumping it in a landfill, of course, but dumping it is still the most straightforward approach to pursue.

But, fortunately, that's not the only approach.

Another option for contractors and job site managers is to reuse as much of the waste material as possible through deconstruction. No matter whether you re-use it, or it's processed to be sold or used elsewhere, repurposing your construction debris can be highly practical.

Your local agencies, as well as the Federal and State agencies, have specific requirements for the proper handling and disposal of various materials and substances. This means that whoever is ultimately removes and disposes of construction debris must be knowledgeable in this area.

One advantage of using professional firms is that they will make use of the proper disposal sites and methods, while recycling as much of your materials as possible.

3 Benefits of Outsourcing Construction Junk Removal

There are some of the many benefits that come from outsourcing your construction debris removal:

Less Time Lost with Clean Up and Removal

Lower Costs for Disposal

Every labor hour spent cleaning up, fuel, vehicle wear and tear, dumping fees and so on, can all add up to much more than the cost of outsourcing the task.  It can be more cost-effective to outsource that work to a competent and professional specialists.

No Time Spent Arranging for Debris Removal
