Vermont, Federal Officials Praise Paper Mill Demolition Project

Adams Trucking and Excavation, which was the low bidder for the demolition project, ended up finding buyers for much of the material of the mill, minimizing what had to be trucked to a landfill.

SEATTLE (Waste 360): U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and Vermont state officials applauded the efforts of Adams Trucking and Excavation of Westminster, Vt., for recycling most of the materials from the old Robertson Paper Mill demolition project.

Adams Trucking and Excavation, which was the low bidder for the demolition project, ended up finding buyers for much of the material of the mill, minimizing what had to be trucked to a landfill. The company ended up selling the bricks and granite window lintels to a company that specializes in brick salvage, the beams were shipped to Maine for re-milling and resale and old light fixtures were either sold or given away.
