Construction waste is any residue and fragments of materials resulting from construction and assembly works, demolition or renovation of buildings. This type of waste includes, among others, rubble, aggregate, concrete, bricks, tiles, boards, foils and plastics. The amount of waste depends on the type and characteristics of the investment. It is important to manage these substances properly, as they have an impact on the surrounding environment and the possibility of using the land for further investments.

Transporting construction waste is a task that requires proper work organisation and knowledge of the applicable regulations. First of all, it is necessary to ensure that the fixed assets (vehicles, containers) used for transport are suitable for transporting this type of substance. In addition, the vehicle should be properly secured to prevent waste from spilling during transport. It is also important to remember the applicable legal regulations concerning the disposal of construction waste and the need to have the appropriate documents describing the characteristics and quantity of the waste being transported.

A good company should also have a fleet of vehicles that meet the requirements for permissible load and technical conditions. In addition, it is extremely important to be aware of the logistics of the solution – efficient transport schedules and timeliness. It is also important to cooperate with a company that offers transparency in its operations and full support in all formalities related to construction waste management.
