How can Second Use help you and your business? Save Disposal Fees Disposal fees and surcharges for self-haulers now approach $100 per ton , which can add up quickly on a large work site. While we may not be able to remove all of your material, we can make a big difference in how much is taken to the landfill.
Compensation for your Material Payment With high-value items, we can often provide payment in cash or in store credit. In some instances, we may decide to consign individual pieces. Tax-Deductible Donations Support a good cause in your community and help your bottom-line at the same time! Second Use serves as a material donation center for Habitat for Humanity chapters in the Puget Sound region. The material is sold at our store and chapters receive proceeds from the sale, which support their projects in the community. Speak with a Second Use employee to learn more about how the donation process works and how it may benefit your company and clients.
Reduced Labor and Time Material Pick-Ups Have you already removed material from a site? Do you have overstock, returned, or mistakenly ordered merchandise sitting in a warehouse? Holding onto excess material can mean costly storage fees. Instead, Second Use might be able to pick up the material at your location. Selective Strip-Outs Our crew may be able to come to your job site and remove reusable building materials. This can add up to big savings in labor costs and disposal fees. Second Use employees are highly experienced and trained in all facets of material extraction, including safety measures and treatment of hazardous material. We are a licensed and bonded contractor (Lic: #), with comprehensive liability insurance. Since 1994, Second Use has successfully completed hundreds of projects for contractors, government offices, school districts, public spaces, and homeowners. We take pride in our professionalism and dedication. Environmental Impact http://www.usgbc.org/leed/leed_main.asp Reuse of salvaged building materials is an integral part of green building, a popular and growing industry in the Puget Sound region. Increasingly, customers are looking for ways to make their construction and remodeling projects less environmentally destructive and more sustainable. Why Should you Use Salvaged Materials in your Projects? Save Money The Second Use warehouse is stocked with more than 20,000 square feet of material, to complete most projects. We work hard to keep our prices low and pass savings on to the customer--on average our prices are 40-60% of retail prices at larger home repair stores. Historically Significant Material Seattle and its neighboring communities contain a wealth of historically and architecturally significant homes. Details such as era-specific lighting, hardware, and plumbing can make a considerable difference in the quality of any finished product. Salvaged=Green http://www.usgbc.org/leed/leed_main.asp Customers looking for a more sustainable remodel, look to us to provide quality materials that aren't environmentally destructive. Using salvaged building materials can help contractors meet LEED standards (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design). |
