Construction and Demolition Recycling
Why choose us for construction and demolition recycling?
Dem-Con Recovery & Recycling was established in 1999 as one of the first facilities in the Twin Cities to recycle mixed construction debris. Over the past decade, processes have improved and currently, the facility has been expanded to nearly 40,000 sq. ft. of covered floor space dedicated to construction and demolition recovery. The facility was designed to be a comprehensive service center that accepts a wide range of materials.
Dem-Con is proud to be certified by the Recycling Certification Institute. This 3rd party certification ensures our customers that Dem-Con’s recycling numbers are real, attainable, and accurate. You won’t find anyone with this certification anywhere else in the Twin Cities.

Single Stream Recycling
Dem-Con is proud to offer single stream recycling to our customers and communities throughout the Twin Cities and greater Minnesota and beyond. Our Materials Recovery Facility in Shakopee processes 125,000 tons per year and accepts commingled and source separated recyclables from residential and commercial sources. Our MRF is not open to the public, but we process curbside recycling brought to us by your local hauler.
Shingle Recycling
We’ve developed a shingle processing business to promote environmental stewardship and sustainability. We accept asphalt shingles from manufacturer’s waste as well as tear-offs from roofing projects.
Through our shingle processing, we are able to conserve landfill airspace and reduce the use of virgin oil needed to manufacture hot mix asphalt.
Dem-Con was able to work closely with our partners at the MPCA, MnDOT, the hot-mix industry and equipment manufacturers to develop this product and meet the strict quality demands for use in hot-mix asphalt.
Wood Recycling
Our wood processing operation allows us to process wood to meet specific end market demands from our customers. We are able to meet specifications and supply wood for landscape mulch, erosion socks, bio-fuel, animal bedding, moisture absorption and more.
