How you dispose of excess concrete depends on the amount you have left over. Since concrete hardens quickly, it's wise to have a disposal plan before starting your project. For small amounts, you can divide the extra concrete into manageable chunks. Because concrete isn't considered hazardous waste, these smaller pieces can often be placed in a dumpster. For larger quantities, you can rent a dumpster from a company that specializes in concrete disposal or take the material to a landfill or transfer station. It is important to call your preferred location first to confirm they accept concrete. Additionally, check with your municipality to see if it offers recycling services for solid concrete.

Rubber mulch is recyclable and should not be disposed of in landfills. Contact local recycling centers or rubber mulch manufacturers, as many offer take-back programs. You can also repurpose it for other landscaping projects, donate it to schools or community parks, or sell it online. If removal is necessary, use a shovel and rake to collect the mulch, then transport it to the appropriate disposal or recycling facility.

Demolition services vary in cost based on the scope of your project, but the average cost to demolish a house is around $15,500 for a 1,500-square-foot house. You can also use a per-square-foot price for demolition to get a good estimate, and you can expect to pay between $4 and $17 per square foot. Several other factors that play a role in your pricing, including the following:

• Permit costs in your area

• Building material disposal method

• Machinery rental costs

• Lot size

• Proximity to nearby structures

It depends on the dumpster rental company. Some may allow you to put box springs in their dumpsters, while others may not. Ask your rental company before putting a box spring into the dumpster.
