Allied Waste Introduces Construction Waste Management Service

EBN. Allied Waste examines the unique conditions of each project, including the green expectations for it. At this point, the team chooses between a source-separation and a commingled recycling plan. At the beginning of each project, Allied Waste coordinates and marks recycling containers and educates the work force on site. The team also begins documenting the weights and percentages of debris that is salvaged or recycled and debris that is sent to a landfill; records are kept according to the parameters established by LEED Materials & Resources credit 2, for construction waste management. Allied Waste reports on its progress through a “waste stream report” on a quarterly, monthly, or weekly basis. Upon completion of the project, Allied Waste develops a cost analysis, “a valuable tool for estimators on future LEED projects,” according to Skehan.
