What is C & D Waste?

C & D is waste generated during construction or demolition of homes and other structures. Except for certain hazardous materials, most C & D Waste is considered Class IV waste, and can be disposed of in permitted land fills.

It must be noted that on-site burning is strictly prohibited by Arkansas law. Open burning contributes to smog, pollution and contamination of the land, water and air.

Likewise, open dumping of C & D Waste is not permitted. In fact, any means of disposal except for those listed on the right are considered improper, and probably violate Arkansas statutes.

What are the proper methods of disposal?

 1. Contract with a licensed hauler to transport the materials to an approved facility for disposal.

2. Haul C & D waste to a permitted facility such as a Transfer Station, for ultimate land fill disposal.

3. Haul C & D waste to a permitted land fill facility for disposal.

4. In some circumstances, C & D waste can be disposed of on your own private property, provided it is non-hazardous, and that waste is not accepted from any outside parties.
