Eco Junk is WE's most important division as an environmentally-friendly alternative to demolition, that collect the materials we need for fuel and building materials. Your task it to research to train or recruit already trained deconstruction crews carefully deconstruct the building to salvage as many of the reusable materials as possible, diverting them from local landfills. Salvaged items typically include doors, windows, cabinets, lighting and plumbing fixtures, framing lumber, roofing materials, and flooring.

 

 

Materials are shipped to ECO JUNK warehouse that will be built using tires , or to the warehouses of partnering organizations, for distribution to build our villages. If you have a truck great! No truck then it will be a priority to get one. Your division is in charge of collecting the materials, and constructing the village out of them. You will have 20% of all monthly membership dues to budget for this purpose. This budget is to cover tools, trucks, heavy machinery, and off grid nessesary components for the Gaiaships. Each member that successfully finishes orientation will have a camper to cannabalize for already off grid capable parts.(sinks, stoves, holding tanks, pumps, light fixtures, showers, toilets.)

 

All refuse will be gathered by contracts together with local businesses, farms, and residents! WE use everything!
