How Recycling Wood and Drywall Helps Keep Vancouver Clean

Fleetwoodwaste31 Dec, 2025Business

Vancouver produces large amounts of construction and renovation waste each year, with wood and drywall being the most common materials. Recycling wood and drywall helps reduce landfill pressure, prevent harmful greenhouse gas emissions, and protect air quality. Recycled wood can be reused for mulch, compost, or energy, while gypsum from drywall is repurposed into new building materials. By separating waste properly and using local recycling centers, homeowners and contractors can support sustainable construction practices and help keep Vancouver clean and environmentally responsible.
