Vintage Bricks Back in Use!

At many of the houses our company deconstructs, we are floored by what people will throw away.  Whether it's a rush to get on to the latest, greatest building product, a complete lack of creativity or just not enough information on how to recycle architectural elements we don't know, but it doesn't have to be that way!

Keep all of the beautiful old brick from these places in sight and in use!  Save them from adding to the ever-growing landfill piles and use them somewhere in your next project.

We have thousands of salvaged bricks for sale, $0.25 a piece, you pick them, you haul them!  Most of these are from the late 1800s/early 1900s and have a vintage/antique look to them.

New Reycling Drop-Off Site for DeKalb County

A new recycling center for DeKalb residents recently opened at 3643 Camp Circle in Decatur. This is the county's second permanent site to recycle old electronic items.

They will accept any number of electronic items, including stereos, microwaves, fax machines, CDs, cameras and cell phones just to name a few.

Put your old electronics to good re-use and keep them out of the landfill!
