Residents and contractors have the opportunity to save money on disposal fees by source separating inert construction and demolition debris. This debris can be disposed of at a reduced rate at a Construction and Demolition Debris Disposal Site (C&D Site) within the Valley Region.

C&D Sites have an Approval to Operate from the Department of the Environment and Local Government and are only permitted to receive the following inert debris from the renovation, construction or demolition of a structure.

1. Concrete, brick and untreated wood
2. Siding, ceiling tile, gyproc, and insulation
3. Solid roofing materials such as shingles, trusses and metal beams
4. Glass, metals and durable plastics from the demolition of a building
5. Floor coverings attached to a building during demolition
6. Broken and aged asphalt

Cardboard, packaging and empty drums/containers are not permitted for disposal at a C&D Site. Only construction and demolition materials as set out in the Certificate of Operate will be accepted at these sites.

To avoid having a load of materials refused at a C&D Site (and therefore having to take it to a transfer station or landfill for disposal and be charged the higher fee), it is recommended that C&D debris should be properly sorted (prior to delivery to the C&D Site) to ensure that only approved materials are brought to the C&D Site for disposal. All municipal solid waste and any other unapproved materials must be disposed of at a transfer station or regional sanitary landfills.
Please contact the C&D Site prior to delivery to obtain information such as:

• Cost
• Hours of operations
• Collection service/dumpster rental
