chimney bricks were sorted through, the "good" one for use in walkways, etc., the broken and crumbling ones were used for fill | ||
the steel roofing is being used to cover the "yet to be used" salvaged material and will be recycled when it finishes serving that purpose | ||
All of the rooms in the house were full of clothes, toys, and "stuff" (this is a technical term). Everything that was in usable condition was taken to the local thrift store or sold at the yard sale. | ||
500 lbs. of material was landfilled from this project. This consisted of actual garbage from the house, old brittle linoleum, about 300 sq. ft. of painted drywall, some rotted wood, and some small roof section that were more tar than metal. |
