Managing construction and demolition (C&D) waste in Pine Bluff and Jefferson County involves adhering to both Arkansas Department of Energy and Environment (ADEE) standards and municipal disposal regulations.
When renting a roll-off dumpster from Nexus, you can dispose of virtually all non-hazardous residential and commercial debris: drywall, dimensional lumber, asphalt shingles, cabinetry, carpeting, porcelain fixtures, siding, and general clutter.
However, state regulations strictly prohibit certain hazardous items from entering standard municipal transfer stations: wet oil-based paints, toxic chemicals, sealed propane cylinders, automotive batteries, whole tires, and appliances containing non-evacuated freon.
Nexus works closely with certified regional processors to divert clean aggregate, structural steel, copper piping, and unpainted lumber into local recycling streams, helping preserve the natural beauty of the Arkansas River Delta.
