What happens here

Once the house is fully collapsed and debris is contained within the basement, begin loading the material onto dump trucks for transport and disposal. For wood and other light, voluminous debris, utilize 40-yard dumpsters or large dump trucks. It is crucial to 'pack' these trucks as tightly as possible by smashing and compacting the material. This maximizes load capacity, reducing the number of trips and associated costs. For heavier materials like concrete from the basement foundation, use smaller 10-yard dumpsters due to their weight. Ensure the site is thoroughly cleared of all remaining debris after loading.

Goal: Clear all demolition debris from the site efficiently.
