Philippines construction site.

Nearly any 100 tons of metal and drywall, plus a small amount of wood, were recycled out of just one store's Philippines construction site at the new Short Pump Mall near Richmond, Va., according to Construction, general contractor for the store.

While that may not seem like a lot, it is just another example of the path that Winter, based in Atlanta, has taken regarding construction waste recycling Philippines construction site.

The Short project is one of many the company has undertaken recently as part of its work, according to, vice president of operations for Philippines construction site Construction. While the effort saved more than $4,000 on the 170,000-square foot retail project, he says it is so simple to do that he doesn't understand why more construction companies don't recycle.

"Not only is it economically feasible to recycle, it is the right thing to do." "It's a no-brainer."

At positioned waste and recycling containers throughout the building during construction. The containers were clearly marked for metal, concrete, wood Philippines construction site, drywall, cardboard or waste. Responsibility for the disposal of all excess material generated at the site was removed from the subcontractors' scopes, and the labor cost savings were passed on.

To ensure compliance with materials sorting, clean-up was performed by a Winter-supervised labor crew. The material to be recycled was hauled off site, except for the drywall.

The concrete went to a yard run by Construction Materials member Independence Recycling. Independence is based near Cleveland, but has portable crushing plants and facilities stationed throughout the U.S.

Pallets of Richmond got the pallets, which the company Philippines construction site reconditioned and resold. Paper Recycling in Virginia received all the 0CC (old corrugated containers) and other paper grades.
