Block Removal Dumpsters

Concrete Masonry Units (popularly known as concrete or cinder blocks) come in a great variety of shapes and sizes, but with recent advances in recycling, they can all end up the same way - as masonry filler and construction substrate. Concrete blocks are a very popular construction material, particularly for large stores and warehouse-type facilities, because they are cheap, plentiful, easy to stack and quick to insulate. While a single-row concrete block wall isn't the most sturdy and disaster-resistant of constructions, it can be reinforced with rebar in a way that brick cannot - the hollow cores of the blocks can be threaded with metal elements, making the walls sturdy and unlikely to collapse.For even stronger protection, the hollows can be filled with corefill concrete - a building that has been treated this way can withstand hurricane-strength winds.

In areas that aren't prone to hurricanes, block cores can be filled with foam insulator, which will help drastically lower heating bills. Cinder blocks also offer excellent fire protection, and are often used for firewalls and extreme heat insulation.

After a concrete/cinder block wall is demolished, the debris can be recycled into gravel, filler material and construction substrate to lend it a new life. Many construction companies operate cinder block crushing and sorting machines like the McCloskey S80 and Rubblemaster RM80, that process used blocks into rubble and separate it by size.
