Eco-friendly waste management for LEED projects

A job site pursuing LEED certification has to prove where its debris goes. Megabac provides 20 and 40 cubic yard dry-material dumpsters, single-material dumpsters for sorting at the source, a disposal site identified in advance — Recyclage Frédérick Morin, a sorting facility in Saint-Gabriel-de-Brandon — and the disposal documentation for your file. One call to 514 708-2424 confirms the size, the applicable LEED fees and the delivery date.

What a LEED job site requires

LEED certification looks, among other things, at how a job site manages its construction and demolition debris: diverting materials from landfill, and being able to prove it. In practice, the project team has to document where each dumpster was emptied and what became of the materials — that traceability is what makes it possible to calculate the diversion rate the project is aiming for. A dumpster emptied “somewhere” does not count; a dumpster emptied at an identified sorting facility, with the documentation to show for it, does.

The other requirement starts on the job site itself: sorting at the source. The more a material leaves on its own — concrete on one side, soil on the other — the easier it is to recover and to document. That is the role of the single-material dumpsters, alongside the dry-material dumpster for the rest of the debris.

What Megabac provides

20 and 40 cubic yard dry-material dumpsters, delivered to the job site, and single-material dumpsters — soil, concrete, brick and mortar, asphalt — for sorting at the source. The dumpster size guide details the sizes and accepted materials.

The disposal site is identified in advance and does not change: dry materials are directed to Recyclage Frédérick Morin, a sorting facility at 760 Rue Saint-Cléophas in Saint-Gabriel-de-Brandon. You know where your debris is going before the dumpster is even delivered, and the disposal documentation — the certificate for your LEED file — is provided to you.

LEED fees are added to the dumpster price, based on the size. Their exact amount is confirmed over the phone, along with the dumpster price, before you book — like everything that goes into our prices, nothing is discovered on the invoice.

Your questions about LEED projects

Which dumpsters suit a LEED job site?

The 20 and 40 cubic yard dry-material dumpsters — 14 × 8 × 5 ft with 2 tonnes included, 20 × 8 × 7 ft with 4 tonnes included. For sorting at the source, the single-material dumpsters come alongside: soil, concrete, brick and mortar, asphalt. On the phone, the dispatcher confirms the combination that matches your project's debris management plan.

Where are the materials directed?

To Recyclage Frédérick Morin, a sorting facility at 760 Rue Saint-Cléophas in Saint-Gabriel-de-Brandon. The disposal site is identified before the dumpster is delivered — that is what makes traceability possible for your certification file.

What documentation will I receive?

The disposal documentation for the dry materials — the certificate showing where your debris was processed, for your LEED file. Requirements vary from one project and one consultant to the next: tell the dispatcher what your certification team needs, and we adjust.

Are there specific fees for a LEED project?

Yes — LEED fees are added to the dumpster price, based on the size you choose. Their exact amount is confirmed over the phone at 514 708-2424, before you book, along with the dumpster price: the price agreed on is the price on the invoice.
