Clean rubble, or non-polluted rubble, often consists of stone and concrete. Examples of rubble are bricks, masonry, gravel, natural stone, ceramic material, paving stones, roof tiles and tiles.
You can hand this in at the waste recycling point. Rubble must be clean upon presentation. This means that it cannot be contaminated with other materials or (hazardous) waste. For example, if rubble is contaminated with sand, it no longer qualifies as rubble but as composite construction and demolition waste.
