In any type of process, you can’t manage what you don’t measure. When contractors don’t track and measure how they dispose of waste, they simply don’t know how much material is landfilled, reused, or recycled. Waste management and tracking software streamlines the measurement and management process. It offers a dedicated platform to enter waste ticket information consistently. That information is then stored and available for contractors to generate financial and environmental reports on individual projects or across all projects. Here are three major ways waste tracking can benefit your business.
Save Money If contractors are optimizing their resources to effectively recycle and divert more materials from the landfill, they will have lower disposal costs. On large projects that produce 300 tons or more of waste, WasteCap Resource Solutions uses software, like Re-Trac Connect, to save contractors an average of $40 per ton of waste diverted from the landfill. Become a Compliance Leader Waste management and tracking software takes care of the entire recycling tracking and documentation process for construction and demolition projects. Any demolition or new construction project (with a budget of $5 million or more) under the direction of the State of Wisconsin's Department of Administration - Division of Facilities Development and Management is required to track recycling performance. Projects are also required to meet a landfill diversion goals. Contractors need to meet similar requirements for projects seeking LEED certification or if owners have landfill diversion goals. Reporting is needed to verify this was actually done. Re-Trac Connect can take compliance and sustainability leadership to a new level by offering environmental impact. Re-Trac Connect uses EPA Waste Reduction Model (WARM) metrics to convert data, such as pounds of concrete recycled, into impact equivalents, such as avoided greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. This type of reporting is beneficial to the project owner, but when all project data is combined, allows the contractor to demonstrate their own environmental stewardship. Get Competitive When contractors can increase their own cost-effectiveness, they can pass this savings onto clients with a lower bid. A lower bid, a streamlined documentation and reporting process, and the ability to quantify environmental successes will give contractors a competitive edge. Or, when being considered for a project with specific requirements, it is easy to pull data from a similar project to prove past performance. Companies and domestic markets have an opportunity to reinvent the way materials are created, distributed, and re-purposed. Waste management and tracking software is the first step to help the construction industry save money while transforming our linear economy into a circular economy.

Some of its negative effects on the society are land depletion, energy requirement and use, solid waste production, discharge of dust and gas, noise pollution, and utilization of natural resources including non-renewable resources. Good article with an excellent way of presentation. Keep it up. Thanks for sharing.

I'm planning on getting a shed in my back yard deconstructed, but I'm not sure how to go about it. It makes sense that I would want to know what to do with the waste afterward! It would probably be smart to get a professional to help me out with this to ensure that I do things properly.

You made a good point when you shared that it is important for contractors to track and measure how they dispose of waste from the constructions. It is best to find a service that can help recycle the remaining concrete after the project is done. I would like to think if a contractor wants to make sure that they don't dispose of waste, he should consider working with a reliable service that can offer to recycle the concrete.

Thanks for the information on demolition. I didn't realize that it's better to measure waste. I will see if I can find a demolition service that does that.

I am grateful that this post stressed that one of the benefits of hiring a proper demolition service is that we can save money. It makes sense as they can ensure that the demolition is done properly and efficiently. I will definitely keep this information in mind when looking to have a house demolished.

I can see how a business could really benefit from getting the right kind of demolition done for their building in order to be safer. Making sure that they can get some help from a professional could allow them to be safer. It was interesting to learn about how they can manage the waste of a project with the right kind of information.

Such an informative and helpful content. If you wish to dispose large amount of garbage, I could say that it is still better to seek professional help from junk hauling companies especially when you are in a tight schedule. However, be careful on choosing service providers. Ask suggestions or recommendations from the people you trust, whether your friends, colleagues or someone in your circle. Choose that provider who is trust-worthy and honest.

Some parts of initial construction materials (about 1 to 10% by weight) may be lost at the site and consider them as waste.

Thank you for noting that recycling performance must be tracked for any demolition or new construction project with a budget of $5 million or more that is overseen by the Division of Facilities Development and Management of the State of Wisconsin's Department of Administration. My sister wants to demolish the old structure and erect a new one. I'll advise her to hire a demolition company for land clearance, and I'll make sure she submits accurate reports.

The first way is measuring the amount of C&D waste that entered to the landfills.
Reply
1/10/2023 10:05:31 am
Conventionally, in a linear economy, C&D (Construction and Demolition) waste was considered as zero value materials, and, as a result of that, most C&D waste materials ended up in landfills. In recent years, with the increase in the awareness around sustainability and resource management, various countries have started to explore new models to minimize the use of limited resources which are currently overused, mismanaged, or quickly depleting.
