How to dispose of Concrete, Brick & Asphalt in Texas
Texas rules
Many concrete batch plants accept old concrete for recycling.
General steps
- Concrete, brick, and asphalt are highly recyclable — search for C&D recycling facilities nearby.
- Many facilities accept clean concrete and brick for free or low cost.
- Remove rebar, wire mesh, and other metal before delivering for recycling.
- Small amounts may be reused as fill, drainage material, or garden borders.
- Never put in regular trash or curbside recycling — too heavy and can damage equipment.
