How does deconstruction work?

  1. Our Deconstruction Coordinator walks your project and identifies items for reuse.
  2. We provide you with a proposal that includes a materials recovery plan, scope, and cost. 
  3. Schedule the work. We’re on time, on budget, and low-impact.

Save Money

Save time and money that would have been spent on disposal fees.

Sustainable Choice

Demonstrate your commitment to sustainability by including removal in a project bid.

Simple Process

We remove the items and take them off the jobsite the same day.

Only 11% of construction and demolition waste in the Northeast got a second life in 2024.

Up to 48% could have. That’s more than four times as much material kept in use.

Bar chart: 11% given a second life, compared with a possible 48%.

Deconstruction goes further than breaking materials down. Our crew takes cabinets, fixtures, lighting and lumber out whole, so they can be reused in another home or project. You pay less to haul waste away, and more materials go back into use.

"Having that whole process turnkey with BBR coordinating the removal and pickup is a huge plus for us."
