I reuse everything from remodels. Seems a shame to throw out always. And other skips are getting bought by others to use in their building projects.

How do you reuse plaster or drywall walls/ceilings? I’m fairly reuse-friendly, but that stuff goes straight in the dumpster for practical reasons.
we fill anything that needs filling: the ground here is very uneven with massive rocks so you need to fill to even, you can empty containers of crap other people give away or pay a fortune.
Oh, yeah I forgot, who needs a dumpster when you can just bury your fiberglass in the ground. Of course.
The ground sounds like a bad place for lead paint and asbestos, two things which can be found in demolition waste.
When we need fill in the US, a big truck comes and dumps actual soil and rock so that lead and other things don’t leach into the groundwater, the construction waste is landfilled after removing the metal for recycling.
If you have well water and have been using construction demolition waste nearby your wellhead, I would suggest an RO filter for drinking water, yikes.
