REBRI Resource Recovery Concrete: Collection and Transportation (PDF)

This guide provides good practice advice to maximise recovery rates for concrete from construction and demolition (C&D) projects by improving crushing, screening and stockpiling processes.

The aim is to assist the operators of crushing and screening systems to adopt practices that:

• maximise operational efficiency and the amount of concrete crushed and screened into chip product
• minimise contamination and maximise the quality of the chip product
• avoid or minimise environmental and nuisance effects from processing and storage.

This guideline covers:

• finding good markets for waste concrete
• collection and transportation services
• heath and safety hurdles
• resources and contacts
• other guidelines in this series.
