Load Screening
The purpose of this page is to provide guidance on the inspection of loads of drywall entering the facility to determine the quality and condition of the load.
Summary of the Load Screening Procedure:
Loads entering our facility for recycling are split into two categories, namely:
Manufacturer’s Date Stamps:
By “Dated” or “Non-Dated”, we mean the board has a Manufacturer’s Date Stamp. These stamps are black, blue or purple (all are really black, the different colours seem to be a result of the printer running low on ink). Acceptable date stamps are NEVER green. The date stamp can be on the front, back or edge of the board.
Summary of the Load Screening Procedure:
Loads entering our facility for recycling are split into two categories, namely:
- Dated 1990 and after, and Cut-Ends
- Dated before 1990 or Non-Dated
- Contractors
- Homeowners
