Commercial drywall removal & recycling, managed across every location

From renovation tear-outs to new-construction offcuts, Waste Harmonics Keter handles drywall removal and recycling as a single managed partner. One point of contact, one invoice, documentation you can defend.

Why it matters

Drywall in a landfill is a problem; drywall in recovery is gypsum

Buried gypsum can generate hydrogen sulfide as it breaks down, which is why a growing number of jurisdictions restrict drywall from landfill. Meanwhile clean drywall, especially new-construction scrap, is recoverable gypsum with real reuse markets in agriculture and new board.

We separate the recoverable share, route it to processors where markets exist, and document what happened either way.

What We Manage

The drywall we remove and recycle

We manage drywall and gypsum debris from renovation, demolition, and new construction, across every location under one consistent program. Clean scrap recovers best; we separate it from painted and demolition board.

Our Process

How WHK manages your drywall program

We start by mapping what you generate across every location, then standardize your program with one cadence and vetted recyclers everywhere. Scheduled pickups come with chain-of-custody records, and your materials are processed responsibly with diversion and activity rolled into one report.

Assess

We map your project scope, drywall volume, local disposal rules, and available gypsum recovery options.

Standardize

Right-sized containers and separation, keeping clean scrap apart from painted and demo board.

Collect & document

Scheduled hauls with weight tickets and chain-of-custody records.

Recycle & report

Clean gypsum routed to recovery where markets exist; tonnage and diversion rolled into one report.

Weight tickets and diversion data feed project closeout, LEED, and sustainability reporting.

A broker hands your assets to whoever's cheapest and disappears. We own
the outcome. Vetted recyclers, real people, full accountability

Where It Goes

Where your drywall actually goes

Clean drywall goes to gypsum processors for recovery into new board and agricultural soil amendment where regional markets exist. Painted and demolition board that can't be recovered is managed responsibly under local rules, and we tell you which is which.

Responsible routing

Clean gypsum routed to processors for new board and agricultural reuse where markets exist.

Auditable recovery

Weight tickets and diversion records honest about what recovered and what didn't.

Why WHK

Why project teams trust WHK

One partner

We don't broker your program. We own the relationship at every location you operate, which means we're answerable for what happens from pickup to final processing.

Verified recovery pathways

Materials are routed to the right recovery or reuse facilities within our network, with diversion and activity documented and rolled into your program report.

Reporting built for review

Consolidated data across all locations rolls into one report. No piecing together invoices from five different vendors or explaining gaps in your diversion numbers to auditors.

Real accountability

We own your program end to end, not as a broker passing you between vendors.

FAQ

Common questions about our program and services.

Is drywall recyclable?

Clean, unpainted drywall is. Gypsum recovers into new board and agricultural soil amendment where regional processors exist.

Why is drywall restricted from some landfills?

Buried gypsum can generate hydrogen sulfide gas as it decomposes, so a growing number of jurisdictions restrict or surcharge it.

Does painted drywall recycle?

Usually not. Painted and demolition board typically can't be recovered and is managed responsibly under local rules. We separate it from clean scrap so the recoverable share isn't lost.

Can you support LEED or diversion documentation?

Yes. Weight tickets and chain-of-custody records document tonnage and diversion for project closeout and reporting.

Do you handle full renovation debris?

Mixed renovation and demolition debris is handled under our Construction & Demolition stream; drywall recovers best when kept separate.
