Reduce Landfill Waste

Waste is piling up around our planet, billions of tons annually. What's worse, global waste production is expected to double by 2013, Much of that ends up in landfills, with as much as 40 percent coming from construction projects. Together we can help drive down that number.

Save Money

While we're at it, we can drive down your project budget. Reclaimed materials are typically available at a 15 to 20 percent savings over new. You've heard of win-win situations? This is the real deal.

Save Time

Your time is another valuable commodity. So we've worked to ensure a streamlined process that allows you to make smart, informed decisions: we offer insight, source materials, test for quality, and document for LEED and Living Building Challenge certification. This frees you to focus on what you do best.

Save the Planet

Planet Reuse consultants know your world and speak your language. Like you, we care deeply about responsible and sustainable construction. Thats why making it significantly easier for you to source reclaimed building materials is our mission.
