ANSWER: Community Forklift's Goals:
Community Forklift aims to:
Lift up communities by making repairs and renovation more affordable for everyone in the community - homeowners, small businesses, charitable groups, etc.
Reduce construction industry waste, keep reusable materials out of the landfill, and reduce the mining and harvesting of dwindling natural resources.
Promote environmentally-friendly building materials and methods
Develop career opportunities for nearby residents.
Their products
Surplus materials are new, sometimes still in the original packaging. Homeowners, contractors, or manufacturers donate them due to changes in project plans, excess materials, ordering mistakes, minor flaws, or discontinued brands.
Salvaged materials have been used, and still have useful life left in them. Most of our salvaged items come from remodeling projects. Many also come from Deconstruction Services, a company that takes buildings apart carefully rather than bulldozing them. Deconstruction is a growing industry that creates jobs and conserves natural resources, and it can cost the same or less than traditional demolition. Our inventory changes every day, but we usually have cabinets, radiators, lumber, trim, flooring, plumbing fixtures, paint, glass, doors, windows, lighting, appliances, HVAC, landscaping materials, and more!
New Green Materials are environmentally friendly items. We carry Nature Neutral products, including recycled cotton insulation, low VOC and low odor paints and sealants, and sustainably harvested lumber. They contain significantly fewer toxins and cause less pollution, so they better for your health and our world.
