The clean-up and recycling part of demolition is often forgotten. However, it is one of the most important aspects of a demolition project. There is no point in a demolished structure that hasn’t been removed to make way for new work. Not only this, but demolition debris and waste can also have a significant impact on the environment.

In order to keep the environmental impact to a minimum and clear a site as efficiently and quickly as possible, demolition companies work hard to salvage and recycle as much of the demolition waste as possible, taking what cannot be used off site to be disposed of correctly. A good demolition company will be able to take care of every aspect, from planning and demolition to clearing and disposal.

Abyss Demolition strives to ensure up to 85 per cent of the demolition waste generated on site is salvaged or recycled. Their experienced technicians have all of the tools and demolition attachments to accurately sort and dispose of the waste, resulting in a cleared and clean site, ready for new construction.

There are certain things a company must have and do in order to achieve an OHS Management System accreditation. The purpose of a safety management system is to prevent death or injury as well as the prevention of property damage. In order to display that a company has good safety standards, they need to document their system. This includes hazard identification and control, details of risks and what systems and procedures are in place if something happens, submission of an audit plan and a certificate authenticating the annual audit from an accredited auditor.

Auditing involves an accredited auditor visiting your company to check your safety measures and how they are implemented. They will undertake an annual audit in accordance with the state’s guidelines for auditing an OHS Management System. For more detailed information on what they look for and what kind of system a demolition company must have in place, you can contact an OHS Management System auditor or visit your state government’s website.

Abyss Demolition, as mentioned, holds an A Class business licence, including OHS Management System accreditation. This ensures the quality and safety of their services, so you know everything will be done in accordance with the highest safety standards.

1. Prior to the commencement of any demolition, you will need to acquire a demolition permit from your local council. This can take several weeks so it is important you look into this well before the intended demolition date.
2. If any foliage is being removed, particularly trees, you may also need a tree removal permit. This is dependent on the age, size and location of the trees.  You will need to check with your local council if there are any vegetation protection orders in place on your property.
3. The sewerage needs to be capped off. This can be done by a licensed plumber who will go on site for you and arrange for the council inspection.
4. A number of services need to be abolished from the site. This includes the electricity and meter. This is different from getting it disconnected and must be arranged through your utility provider. Alternatively, you can have a temporary builder’s supply installed if necessary. You should contact your electricity retailer to organise this.
5. You will also need to abolish the gas service. This is similar to abolishing the electricity service. You will need to contact your retail gas provider for the relevant forms to complete for your area.
