What is Construction and Demolition Waste?

The largest single source of landfilled waste in WA is materials and soils from construction and demolition activities (Waste 2020, 2001). The types of wastes generated from C&D include the removal of unsuitable materials from building sites prior to construction as well as waste from the construction process. Soil that is either contaminated or unsuitable for building on is also a large part of the waste going to landfill from this stream.
