Can u get paid to get rid of old wood & other materials when re-modeling a house?

Question

...I heard there are places that come to your house and collect old materials like wood, drywall, etc. and give u cash for it. I guess they recycle those materials.

I'm rehabbing my house & wanted to know where I can contact people or companies that do this. (In or around Chicago, IL)

Ps,
Sorry, I know its the wrong category to ask this question, but I wasn't getting any answers elsewhere...

Thanx!

Answer 1

If you have any good glass windows, doors, wiring, hinges, bricks, flooring, or vintage items you may be able to sell them to a salvage place or you could donate them to habitat for humanity. As for dry wall or old wood I can’t see that happening.♪
