Award Winning Brick & Paver Recycling Initiative
Once you've completed your project, don't send your leftover clay bricks, pavers and roof tiles to landfill. Help save the environment and recycle!
Boral Bricks W.A. have an innovative, multi-award winning recycling program where old, broken and unwanted clay bricks, pavers and roof tiles are crushed back to their original state and reused in the manufacture of new internal brick products.
By recycling this waste, Boral Bricks W.A. minimises mining and diverts waste materials from landfill - benefits unequalled by any other building material.
The strength, quality and technical specifications of new internal brick products that contain recycled waste are not affected in any way.
It is imperative that the waste material is 'clean' - that is, the clay brick, paver and tile waste cannot have any contaminant materials mixed in with it, especially cement, timber, paper, plastic, metal, or excessive mortar. Contaminated waste material will not be accepted under any circumstances. Pictured below are acceptable loads of recycled waste and unacceptable loads of contaminated waste.
The program operates from four major streams of recycling:
- general public
- commercial building sites
- recycled demolition waste
- residential building sites
General Public
Boral Bricks WA encourages the general public to return waste clay bricks, pavers and roof tiles to one of Boral Bricks WA's four Recycling Yards:
>Jandakot
>Joondalup
>Middle Swan
>Osborne Park
Customers are welcome to bring back small quantities of clean waste to any of these Recycling Yards, from a few loose unwanted off-cuts, leftovers or broken bricks up to garden trailer loads.
Customers should call 13 15 40 prior to returning waste to ensure that there is sufficient bin capacity at their preferred Recycling Yard.
Green plastic strapping from brick and pavers packs can also be recycled at each of the above Recycling Yards.
Customers should call (08) 9267 9826 for more information.
Commercial Building Sites
Waste bins are placed inside supervised commercial construction sites and are collected by Boral Bricks W.A. trucks when the next brick delivery is made.
Recycled Demolition Waste
Please note Boral Bricks W.A. does not accept waste direct from demolition companies under any circumstances.
Residential Building Sites
Residential Builders are encouraged to use the Boral Bricks recycling program. For more information on how to best utilise this service and to contribute to a 'greener' future, speak to your sales executive or call 13 15 40.
