AMG coordinates with the ReUse People of California, a nonprofit 501 (c) corporation, and complete deconstruction services for building owners or general contractors. Building owners receive a tax deduction for all salvaged material. Through our efforts, eighty-five percent or more of the materials in an average deconstruction job can be salvaged and reused or recycled. See descriptions of projects below:

Benefits to the General Contractor:
- Offers clients a potential cost offset in the form of a tax deduction, which equates to real cash savings. Only deconstruction and not demolition provides this tax advantage.
- Lowers disposal costs. Salvaged materials mean substantially less goes to the landfill.
- Gives clients added value. They will thank you for the bonus now and again at tax time.
- Gains an advantage over the competition. Deconstruction trumps the bulldozer mentality everytime.
- Helps to maintain a green environment.
Benefits to the Building Owner:
- Receive a real cost offset for donated materials. An independent expert appraiser determines the appraised value of donated materials, which usually results in a significant tax deduction.
- Reduce the cost of the overall project. When offset by tax savings and lower disposal costs, the net savings increase.
- Reusable materials are kept out of overburdened landfills.
- Alternative uses are needed for lumber, metal, vanities, plywood, casework, Jacuzzi bathtubs, fences and other building materials.
