Our Environmental Commitment
- Proper disposal and recycling of materials
- Safe handling of contaminants and hazardous materials
- Free recycling of common materials like cardboard, paper and glass
Demo shouldn’t mean dumping. At Bay Area Demo & Hauling, we recycle tile, porcelain, metal, cardboard, and wood whenever possible — and properly dispose of non-recyclable materials. Our trucks are loaded with care, and we ensure waste won’t end up where it doesn’t belong.
