In the chart above the cost for disposal is more than likely incorrect. If a house is "demolished" the disposal fee is far greater than the disposal fee of a home that is "deconstructed" where materials are salvaged for reuse because, obviously, there is less material to be disposed of. In my experience (over 16 years), disposal fees for a home that is deconstructed would most likely be around 60% lower than homes that are demolished. Therefore if the disposal fee for a home that is demolished would be $4,100.00 then the disposal fee for the same home home that would be deconstructed should be around $1,640.00 netting the homeowner an additional $2,460.00 For more information contact me at (650)787-3366 or check out our website at mavcodeconstruction.com.
