Last year, our county landfill reported that 15% of construction waste came from flooring materials. Most installers don't even know where that trash ends up or what it costs to handle. If we had to pay real disposal fees upfront, not just dump it in a bin, we'd find ways to cut waste fast. Why isn't there a standard system for recycling vinyl scraps like there is for cardboard? We could pressure manufacturers to take back off-cuts, but no one talks about that. What would it take to get big companies on board with a take-back program?
