REUSE AND
DECONSTRUCTION

Reuse & Deconstruction

The ReUse Program is a two million dollar salvaged building materials enterprise operated by The Green Institute. More than 75,000 annual customers from around the state and greater region find salvaged building items (kitchens, flooring, doors, windows, millwork, lighting, hardware, etc.) and green building product lines (Forest Stewardship Council-certified (FSC) wood products, granite, carpet, tile, etc.) at the ReUse Center.

New High Definition Video Series :  The ReUse Center and DeConstruction programs have been featured in a suite of three short documentary-style videos.  Shot in high definition, these videos offer a refreshing look at various aspects of program operations and our ongoing mission to keep quality building materials out of the landfill.

 

ReUse/DeCon won the 2006 Governor's Award for Pollution Prevention. Click here to watch the video.
