Donating Salvage Rights

Not every building can be saved. Through neglect and damage, some buildings are no longer structurally sound and must be demolished.

PACA relies on notification from building owners, demolition contractors, or city officials about the impending demolition of buildings and historic structures. Many buildings may contain material that can be salvaged, regardless of the condition or age of the building. PACA’s salvage team works to remove useable items from these buildings which we then offer for sale at our warehouse.

PACA has a defined process for accomplishing building salvage. This includes adherence to OSHA safety guidelines and strict access control of salvage sites. PACA is insured for damage to property or injury to individuals at salvage sites. Incentives for individuals/businesses who allow the salvage of their buildings before demolition include:

      • reduced waste disposal fees
      • diversion of waste from landfills
      • supporting principles of green building
      • a tax deduction (to the extent allowable by law) for the donation of the items recovered
      • fast, efficient, trouble-free removal at your convenience
      • liability insurance

It is often possible for Fire and Rescue organizations to use buildings for rescue training and burns even after they have been salvaged. PACA will assist with this by ensuring that windows and doorways are sealed.

Donation Drop Offs

We also accept donated items to be sold in our warehouse.

Donations may be made during business hours – no after hours dumping please.

Please see our donation guidelines for accepted items.

Also note acceptance of donated goods may be contingent on space available and/or demand for items.
