Those are Rodriguez highside & lowside end-dumps there, and some of their subs and some of my subs. Was my only competition in end-dump until I got out of the business a month ago. I hung up the keys, no more highside, lowside or super-10.

Interesting seeing that posting...

Yep they sealed the building and took all the asbestos out prior to the demo!

Hang on, so they removed the asbestos problem and then still demolished the building!!!!???

You should see the overabundance in any urban area yellow pages, make your fking head spin.

Maybe 1/10 actually makes a positive contribution to their community.

Thats how we have to do it over here in the U.S.

Not all asbestos has to be removed to do demolition. Only FRIABLE asbestos has to be removed. Items such as asbestos caulk, windows, and galbestos sheets can be removed during the demolition process. As long as it is handled, and disposed of properly
