Reuse is community-driven. This session examines the inner workings of creating a durable goods salvage operation, the broader implications on existing material supply systems, and how reuse is an often missed opportunity. While the first impulse to building, rebuilding, or renovating homes is to go to home improvement stores, salvaging invites an opportunity to rethink the good quality materials that are around us, and shows case studies of how these systems are already working in Gainesville, Savannah, and Austin.
