Concrete Routed to Crushing Facility

Concrete
Recycling.

Bubs Disposal does not landfill concrete. Hardened concrete from washout pans, demo dumpsters, and slab tear-outs gets routed directly to a Utah crushing facility for aggregate reuse. The crushed aggregate goes back into road base, sub-base, and new construction material across the state. Less concrete to the landfill. Better for Utah.

What We Route

Bubs routes. Utah facilities recycle.

We route every concrete load to the right place. If we can recycle a load of hardened concrete, it goes to a Utah crushing facility instead of the landfill. The crushing facility does the actual recycling work — running the concrete through their crusher and turning it into clean aggregate. That is their specialty, not ours.

Concrete comes off our trucks two ways. From concrete washout pans, where contractors clean out pump trucks and chutes after a pour, and from demolition dumpsters, where old slabs, sidewalks, foundations, and patio tear-outs end up. Either way, the concrete gets routed to a crushing facility instead of the landfill.

Roofers, GCs, and demo crews see the biggest benefit because their loads carry the most concrete. If you are pouring or breaking concrete in Utah, your washout pan and your demo dumpster both feed the recycling chain through Bubs.

Where Your Concrete Goes
Concrete from your Bubs dumpster or washout pan routes to a Utah crushing facility such as Concrete Recycling Inc just off I-215 in Salt Lake City — a dedicated concrete recycler since 2001. They run the concrete through a three-point cleaning process to produce clean recycled gravel and road base. Bubs picks up the load. The crushing facility does the recycling.

Why It Matters

Concrete is the most landfilled construction material in the US.

Landfill diversion ✓

  • Concrete is heavy, bulky, and slow to break down in a landfill
  • One slab tear-off can dump several tons of recyclable material
  • Bubs routes every concrete pound to crushing instead
  • Less weight, less volume, less landfill cost

Aggregate reuse ✓

  • Crushed concrete becomes road base, sub-base, and fill material
  • Reduces demand for fresh quarried aggregate
  • Lower carbon cost than virgin material
  • Utah construction projects pull from the recycled supply

EPA-friendly ✓

  • Concrete washout pans contain slurry on-site at the jobsite
  • Hardened cure-out hauled in sealed pans, never on the ground
  • Inspector-ready containment on every pour
  • Compliant top to bottom from job to facility
Concrete Recycling FAQs

Common questions.

Where does my concrete actually go after pickup?
Hardened concrete from your washout pan or demolition dumpster gets routed to a Utah crushing facility such as Concrete Recycling Inc in Salt Lake City. The crushed aggregate gets reused in road base, sub-base, and construction supply. Nothing concrete-related goes to the landfill.
Can I mix rebar and concrete in the same dumpster?
Yes. Rebar separates from concrete on the way to the facility, then each routes to its proper destination. Concrete to a Utah crushing facility, rebar to scrap metal recycling. Both stay out of the landfill.
Can I use the same dumpster for concrete and other debris?
For small amounts of concrete, yes. For big concrete loads (over a couple yards), request a dedicated concrete bin or a washout pan. Concrete-heavy loads route straight to the crusher. Mixed loads work fine for cleanouts but add a step.
What about cured concrete from a washout pan?
That is exactly what we route to crushing. Washout pans cure on-site at the jobsite, then come back to us as solid concrete chunks. Those chunks get routed to the crushing facility. EPA-compliant from pour to facility.
Do you do residential concrete tear-outs?
Yes. Driveway demos, patio rip-outs, sidewalk replacements, retaining wall removals. Order a 15 or 20 yard dumpster, flag that it is mostly concrete at booking, and we will spec the right bin and warn the driver about the weight.
More Recycling Streams

The other streams we route.

Bubs routes every load to one of 4 recycling streams. Here are the other three.

Stream 01

Metal Recycling

Metal loads routed to Utah scrap recyclers. Real recycling, not the landfill.

See Metal Recycling Stream 03

Green Waste Recycling

Branches, leaves, grass, sod, trunks routed to a compost facility. Returned to Utah soil.

See Green Waste Stream 04

Cardboard Recycling

Boxes routed to a paper recycling facility. Fiber pulped into new corrugated.
