At The Artisans Group, we are always looking for ways to reduce our jobsite waste and to avoid putting anything in the landfill. For you DIY’ers out there, it may be useful for you to know some of our local resources where you can dispose of your project ‘waste’.
Our Preferred Approach
Tacoma, WA 
(800) 949.5852
This one works great for construction site debris, but the scope of their work is much broader than just that. A pretty cool outfit, worth a look at their site.
Reuse Building Materials
To purchase materials for a project or to drop off (tax deductible) materials from a remodel, we have two local businesses that specialize in reused building materials.
113 State Avenue, Olympia Wa.
(360) 705.1300
Add’l services: deconstruction and partial salvage
415 Olympia Avenue, Olympia Wa.
(360) 956.3456
Operated by South Puget Sound Habitat for Humanity. Proceeds fund affordable housing projects.
