Deconstruction & ReUse Network

13 years ago

Who is doing full tear downs and donating the materials for corresponding tax deductions? We can guide and assist.

DRN is an environmental and social benefit 501(c)(3) dedicated to promoting and empowering deconstruction practices and the reuse of quality building materials through collaboration. The organization endeavors to secure continued life for reusable items in order to reduce waste. DRN facilitates charitable reuse of surplus property and building materials through partnerships with IRN – The Recycling Network, Habitat for Humanity affiliates in California, and the housing ministry, Corazón.

As a huge proponent of deconstruction - Go Stuart. We deconstruct all our projects to the greatest extent possible and donate what ever can not be repurposed into the project.
