According to B.J. Perkins of Habitat's ReUse program manager in Austin Texas.
"Before you remodel, invite a Habitat for Humanity chapter to remove materials and fixtures for later resale. "About 85 percent of a house is reusable," We can do a total take down, or do a cherry-pick job and take the cabinets, the tub, the sink, and so on." You save space in the landfill, collect a charitable tax credit, and help a good cause."
We have a ReUse chapter here in Lancaster, Ohio. I am always recommending my clients to go there to see if they can find it there first before they buy it new.
