Waste items from your construction, remodeling, or demolition job are limited to ONLY materials that would be used in construction. Anything used to furnish your home is considered garbage, and is not allowed in C&D waste. In addition, containers such as cardboard, shingle or insulation plastic wrapping, caulk tubes, and empty paint cans are NOT ACCEPTABLE in C&D waste loads.

Separate Your Waste to Save Money

When planning your construction job you may want to consider requiring garbage items to be separated from the construction debris to save disposal cost. Lyon County Environmental has available 40 gallon nylon bags for contractors or DIY remodelers to separate garbage from C&D waste. If separated properly the garbage bag will be taken for no additional cost. *See Downloads section for more information*

Please pay careful attention to the following lists to make certain your C&D waste meets acceptable disposal standards
