Stardust Building Supplies, a nonprofit building materials reuse center and deconstruction operation in Phoenix, Arizona, encourages reuse and repurposing through innovation, education and community partnerships; and envisions a sustainable community where all usable materials are repurposed or reused. Proceeds generated by Stardust Building Supplies stores are used to support the organization’s deconstruction activities (Stardust Deconstruction), as well as other local nonprofits including Angels On Call, Computers For Kids, and Gifts In Kind. Over the past 17 years, Stardust has increased its focus on diverting usable building materials from local landfills while providing a resource for low income homeowners who are interested in remodeling their homes. Stardust operates retail warehouse stores selling building supplies donated by manufacturers, distributors, contractors and individuals. This process diverts reusable building materials from local landfills making new and nearly-new materials available within their community at 50-80% off retail prices. Since inception, Stardust has diverted over 2 million pounds of usable material from the waste stream each year. Click here for more info.
