Deconstruction

Add recycling to your renovation.

Our Deconstruction program can help you remove items during your renovation project. The reusable items get a second life and help raise money to support community members working to improve their housing situation.

What is Deconstruction?

Deconstruction is the process of removing reusable and recyclable materials by hand. This technique reduces the disposal of materials into the landfill and provides valuable building materials and home goods for the ReStore to sell.

Benefits of Deconstruction

  • Items donated to the ReStore may be deductible for income tax purposes at their current market value.
  • You save money on demolition and dumpster costs.
  • Materials get a second life and don’t end up at the landfill.
  • Money is raised to help build and repair homes for individuals and families in our community.

The Deconstruction Process

Step 1
Contact

The property owner contacts the ReStore to offer their property for deconstruction. Our deconstruction lead will talk with you and decide whether we can salvage materials from your property.

Step 2
Walk-Through

You’ll schedule a time to meet with our deconstruction lead and conduct a walk-through of your property.

Step 3
Agreement

After it is determined that deconstruction of your property is possible, you’ll make an agreement with the ReStore to access the property, designate the materials to be salvaged and set a timeline.

Step 4
Deconstruction

Our deconstruction lead will schedule tools, trucks and a team to begin the deconstruction of your property.
