Construction sites can create a significant amount of debris and waste material, from small chunks of metal to large pieces of concrete. All of these need to be safely removed from quite a populated work area so that they do not get in the way or injure anyone. While, traditionally, this was done by simply throwing things off the side, this is not the safest way of doing things and has led to injuries in the past. Here are a few major benefits of a simple debris chute installation that will make you want to never begin construction without a plan for one again. 

Increased Efficiency

Debris chutes can also help improve the efficiency of your construction project. By providing a fast and convenient way to remove debris, they can help keep the site clean and organized, reducing downtime and allowing work to proceed more smoothly. There is nothing more frustrating than a bottleneck somewhere on site that is causing people to slow down when construction should be at full speed ahead. Construction debris chutes can make sure that you and everyone on site are working as fast as physically possible and not being delayed by waste and broken materials of all things. 

Reducing The Chance Of Injury

Perhaps the most important benefit of a debris chute is that they drastically reduce injuries on your construction or demolition site. Rather than simply allowing materials to be thrown off your building, you provide a controlled descent for them in an area where people will know what is coming. No one will ever sit or stand in front of a debris chute exit, while it is possible that an unlucky bystander could be hit by debris you simply throw off the side. The last thing anyone wants is a major injury that requires a long hospital stay and thousands upon thousands of dollars in medical bills so don't let that happen to your team. 

Increased Recycling Of Valuable Materials

By providing a controlled method for disposing of debris, they can help ensure that all materials are properly removed and disposed of, reducing the risk of mistakes or oversights. For example, you can have multiple debris chutes that are all lined up next to each other. One will lead to a metal debris collection, while another will be for cement and still another could be for timber or electrical wiring. This can help you recycle more material while keeping the totally unusable materials away from everything else.
