Waste generated from construction, lawn maintenance, or home remodeling can easily add up, making it hard to dispose of easily. A good example would be concrete material removed from a construction site. Luckily, Stand Up Guys can collect your unwanted junk and dispose of it in an efficient, eco-friendly manner. By using junk removal in Marietta, GA, you will make the environment cleaner and greener in the following ways:
Environmentally Friendly Landscaping
Unwanted junk can be recycled and used to complete a wide range of landscaping projects. For instance, urbanite concrete can be used to make water fountains, benches, sidewalk slabs, and terrace foundations. This means homeowners do not have to buy expensive stone products for the same purpose. Additionally, landscaping products made from recycled materials can still be as eye catching as those made using stone.
Green Road Construction and Repair
The road construction and repair industry can also benefit greatly from recycled construction waste. This is especially true for concrete, which can be broken into smaller pieces and used when paving roads. Moreover, recycled concrete can be used as sub-base or base gravel. By using recycled materials, road constructors and repairers cut project costs significantly.
Prevent Soil Erosion
In most cases, construction site waste includes metal-based wires and meshes that would come in handy during the construction of wire cages, gabions, and retaining walls in areas that are prone to soil erosion. At the same time, discarded concrete and gravel would be used to fill the wire cages and gabions. After installation/construction, such structures would prevent soil degradation by runoff/surface water in the future.
Riprap
Large pieces of concrete can be broken into pieces measuring about 10-18 inches for use as riprap revetments. These structures are widely used in landscaping, along shores as embankments, and along the banks of rivers and streams to prevent erosion.
Recycled Concrete Aggregate
Finally, unwanted construction concrete can be recycled to create concrete aggregate that can be used in construction projects such as building of roads and pavements. In fact, the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) has approved the use of this recycled material and has set a precedent for other states like Georgia to do the same
