Why Choose RDL Construction

Our approach to debris removal combines efficiency with environmental responsibility to keep your project clean while maximizing recycling and proper disposal.

  • Sorting Expertise: We separate materials for appropriate recycling, reuse, or disposal rather than sending everything to landfills
  • Equipment Resources: We utilize appropriate containers, trucks, and processing equipment for efficient debris management
  • Regulatory Compliance: Our knowledge of disposal regulations ensures all materials are handled according to Oregon and Washington requirements
  • Schedule Integration: We coordinate debris removal with your construction timeline to maintain site efficiency and safety

As a full-service contractor with comprehensive construction experience, we understand debris management from a builder’s perspective. This insight allows us to integrate cleanup with your construction schedule while supporting project efficiency.

Our Debris Removal Process

We follow a systematic approach to debris management that ensures efficient cleanup while maximizing recycling and proper disposal.

1. Waste Assessment & Planning
We begin by evaluating your project’s debris profile, estimating volumes, and identifying material types. This assessment allows us to develop an appropriate waste management strategy with optimal container placement and scheduling.

2. Container Placement & Logistics
We position appropriate containers at strategic locations to facilitate efficient debris collection while minimizing site disruption. Our logistics planning ensures timely swap-outs and hauling to maintain site cleanliness.

3. Material Sorting & Segregation
Our team implements effective sorting processes, separating recyclable materials from general waste. This critical step maximizes recycling potential and minimizes disposal costs.

4. Efficient Removal & Transportation
We remove filled containers and transport materials to appropriate facilities with minimal disruption to ongoing work. Our efficient transportation network ensures timely service.

5. Recycling & Proper Disposal
We coordinate with recycling facilities and disposal sites to ensure all materials are processed according to their type and condition. Our relationships with processing facilities maximize recycling opportunities.

6. Documentation & Compliance Verification
We provide documentation of proper disposal and recycling for your records and regulatory compliance. This paper trail demonstrates environmental responsibility and may support green building certification.

Popular FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

What construction materials can be recycled instead of landfilled?
Many construction materials can be effectively recycled, including: concrete and masonry (crushed for aggregate); clean wood (processed for mulch or biomass fuel); metals (sorted by type for recycling); cardboard and paper packaging; certain plastics (depending on local recycling capabilities); asphalt shingles (processed for road base); gypsum drywall (in some facilities); and glass (in limited applications). In the Portland and Vancouver areas, we typically achieve 65-75% diversion rates for mixed construction debris through proper sorting and recycling coordination. During our planning phase, we identify recycling opportunities specific to your project materials and local facilities.
How do you minimize debris removal costs while maintaining site cleanliness?
We implement several strategies to optimize debris removal economics: strategic container placement to minimize handling and trips to disposal sites; efficient sorting to maximize recycling (which typically costs less than landfill disposal); appropriate timing of removals to prevent overfilling or trip inefficiency; right-sizing containers for specific project phases; coordinating removal during non-peak traffic hours when possible; and combining loads where appropriate. For larger projects, we may implement on-site crushing or processing of certain materials to reduce volume and transportation costs. Our comprehensive approach typically saves 15-25% compared to unsystematic debris management.
How do you handle potentially hazardous materials encountered during cleanup?
When we encounter potentially hazardous materials (such as treated wood, lead-containing materials, asbestos, chemicals, or contaminated soils), we follow strict protocols: immediately segregating the materials from general debris; proper containment to prevent exposure; testing when necessary to confirm material composition; coordination with certified hazardous waste handlers for specialized materials; and documentation of proper disposal through licensed facilities. Our team is trained to identify common hazardous materials encountered in construction and renovation projects. For projects with known hazardous components, we develop specific handling plans before work begins.
How do you integrate debris removal with active construction schedules?
Our debris management approach is designed to support construction efficiency through: establishing regular removal schedules that align with project activities; providing flexible service for unexpected debris situations; positioning containers to minimize interference with work areas while remaining accessible; implementing progressive cleanup that maintains site safety and organization; and coordinating with project management to anticipate high-volume debris periods. For projects with limited staging areas, we may implement more frequent removal with smaller containers. Our construction background gives us particular insight into scheduling cleanup around critical project phases and milestones.
