Pacific Builders is a Humboldt County business that takes the extra steps to divert materials from the local landfill and work towards zero waste. Out of a total of 842.36 tons of construction waste debris generated between May 2005 and July 2006, Pacific Builders was able to divert 546 tons from the landfill. This gives Pacific Builders an overall diversion rate of 65%. By using focused resource management plans, a total savings of $156, 089.00 was accomplished in the overall efforts to recycle and reuse. All wood, concrete, asphalt, brick, cardboard, asphalt shingles, plastic sheeting, green waste, metal scrap and reusable fixtures are directed to a C&D debris licensed recycling facility, local recycling center, salvage operations or a local non-profit during this period. Our office uses a recycling program and focused material procurement to help reduce our footprint before the end waste is created on our projects. Pacific Builders continues to work within our community to educate and encourage waste reduction efforts as well as continue to develop our resource management programs to keep construction and demolition debris out of the landfill. We are continually challenged with where materials can be recycled as there is very little infrastructure to support our efforts. Currently we can no longer recycle asphalt shingles or drywall. Our program includes source separation on-site which is transported to different locations for reuse or recycling. Please contact us for information regarding our resource management program.
