Few people realize that recycling is about a lot more than old beer cans and plastic bags. Almost anything can be recycled with the proper equipment and the will to undertake the task. Dead tree branches and old fences can be ground up to produce clean new sheets of particle board. Old roofing, worn-out tires, and asphalt paving can be used to make new asphalt and many other products.
Concrete is a material that few people think can be recycled except in as-is condition. They believe that old chunks of it might be used for erosion control along creeks but that’s about it. However, concrete can be recycled just like anything else. After concrete dumping in Naples, FL, it is crushed and ground into smaller pieces. How small it is crushed depends on what the final use of the material might be. Larger pieces might be put to use as landscaping materials substituting for native rock. Smaller chunks can be sent back to a concrete batch plant and used to reduce the amount of virgin material needed to produce new concrete.
Concrete dumping in Naples, FL allows recyclers to turn that old useless rock into a raw material that is better in some ways than fresh concrete is. There are differences in the ability of it to absorb water and adding recycled concrete to a fresh batch changes the final product’s volume-to-weight ratio. This means that you get more fill for less weight, which is always a bonus when dealing with heavy materials.
