Many items removed from a remodel demolition can be reused and we hope you'll take advantage of DRN's services. They provide the deconstruction work and give many reusable materials to the Habitat ReStore. Instead of filling up our local landfills the material is used in local Habitat homes or purchased at discounted rates by families that might not otherwise be able to afford them.

Reusable items include:
- Lumber
- Doors & Windows
- Roofing
- Cabinetry
- Countertops
- Plumbing Fixtures
- Fireplaces & Mantels
- And more...check the ReStore's website for all materials accepted.
So if you're thinking about remodeling your home or office, consider minimizing your environmental impact and contact the Deconstruction & ReUse Network.
Why deconstruct to REUSE? The DRN reminds us:
34 Billion tons of construction waste ends up in the landfill each year. Deconstructing to reuse one 2,500 sq. foot home can divert 25 tons of construction waste.
