Giving material another useful purpose
At Pit 421, stockpiled concrete and asphalt can be processed into crushed materials rather than treated as ordinary waste. Availability changes with incoming material and processing schedules.
Crushed concrete
Crushed concrete is a recycled aggregate option for approved base and fill applications. Gradation and project specifications matter, so customers should confirm the intended use with GLWD before ordering.
Crushed asphalt
Crushed asphalt is a recycled, compactable option for approved drives and access areas. The finished appearance and behavior differ from traditional paving, and project fit should be confirmed before ordering.
Before choosing either material
- Explain how the area will be used and what loads it will carry.
- Confirm the required depth, base preparation, drainage, and compaction approach.
- Check current pickup or delivery availability.
- Verify any project specification rather than assuming recycled materials are interchangeable with virgin aggregate.
