37. When a Recycled Timber Yard is Built with Kindness with Shaun Oldfield from Coastal Recycled ...

The building and construction industry takes up a huge chunk of the total waste generated in NSW and across Australia, far more than what comes from our everyday household rubbish bins. When a building comes down, so many materials are left behind. But where do they all go? The good news, there are great solutions for recycling in construction and in this episode, we’re delving a little deeper into one solution. I’d love you to meet Shaun Oldfield from Coastal Recycled Building on the Central Coast of NSW. After an unexpected career shift from hotel management to recycled building supplies, Shaun loves being part of a team that’s passionate about showing the value in giving building and construction materials a second life.  In our conversation, we chat about the community who uses recycled materials, how sustainable living can begin with something as simple as a personal hobby, and why there’s so much potential in looking at waste differently. A summary, plus the links and photos of the pieces discussed in this episode are found here at When a Recycled Timber Yard is Built with Kindness. (https://renewyliving.com.au/when-a-re...)
