Dallas Contracting completed two projects that consisted of the removal of various equipment from several active plants.
Dallas Contracting Co's (Dallas Contracting) scope included the total demolition of the buildings, removal of first floor slabs and the onsite crushing of all concrete and masonry materials.
The salvage of several pieces of equipment was conducted prior to any demolition.
Dallas Contracting was able to salvage and sell used electrical equipment including breakers, motor starters, etc as well as a small air compressor.
The building interiors were then gutted of all furniture and debris.
This was accomplished utilizing a skid steer and several laborers.

Materials were separated into debris, recyclables and metals.
Debris disposed properly offsite, metals were sent offsite for recycling and concrete, masonry and brick were crushed onsite.
