Drywall Disposal

Whether you’re renovating, remodeling, or simply cleaning out your space, we provide comprehensive services to safely and responsibly dispose of drywall and other related materials.

Safe Drywall Disposal

Drywall, also known as gypsum or sheetrock, is a common building material that can become a significant waste product during renovations. Proper disposal is crucial, especially when dealing with older drywall, which may contain hazardous materials.

Handling Potential Asbestos in Drywall

Older drywall and vermiculite insulation can sometimes contain asbestos, a hazardous material that requires special handling. At Island Junk, we are highly knowledgeable in identifying potential asbestos-containing materials. To ensure safety, any suspicious drywall will need to be tested before removal and disposal.

  • Testing for Asbestos: We collaborate with AREC, a certified environmental testing company, to conduct thorough asbestos testing on your drywall and insulation materials.
  • Asbestos Identification and Sampling: Our team can handle the sampling process, ensuring that it is done safely and according to regulations.

Disposal and Recycling Services

If the drywall and insulation materials do not contain asbestos, we will proceed with their disposal or recycling. We strive to recycle as much material as possible, minimizing environmental impact.
