RECYCLING & DISPOSAL

MODERN MATERIALS

Recycling & Disposal at Modern Materials

Because we believe that recycling is our responsibility to the planet, Modern Materials maintains several yards, strategically located around Connecticut.

Many construction companies don’t know where to start when it comes to recycling their demolition, but doing so is incredibly valuable. Landfill fees are continuing to climb, and consumers are more focused than ever on sustainability.

Choosing not to recycle could cost more than you think!

Recycle With Us

Material costs and landfill fees are on the rise- but you don’t have to shell out when it comes to recycling and disposing with us.

Here are a few ways you can save big at our convenient recycling facilities:

1. SEPARATE YOUR MATERIALS

Separate your materials to increase potential savings. Concrete, brick, asphalt, earth, and rock can all be disposed of at our facility. Separating incoming materials allows us to better serve our customers’ needs and requirements on the outgoing materials. Good materials coming in means great materials going out!

2. AVOID BUILDING MATERIALS

Modern Materials does not accept building materials such as wood, siding, stumps, insulation, glass, fiberglass, and plastic. By separating your materials and bringing in only approved materials, you can maximize your profits.

3. USE RECYCLED MATERIALS

Increase your cost savings by reusing demoed materials. Many of our recycled products are State-approved for projects of all sizes. These products can offer substantial savings!
