how many fractions were the waste sorted in?
Since DonJon owns their own recycling yard (DonJon Recycling) material did not need to be separated on-site.
While on-site they do a limited fractional division of waste (for ease of transport) and then do the real sorting at their 16 acre yard.
As shown in the video multiple items were lumped into containers but they were all going to the same place for final sorting.
Certainly makes for a faster turn around for clients to start reusing their sites rather than a time consuming separating process.
Reminds me of how I always felt about school.

Give it a Splat!
DonJon Services a division of DonJon Marine Salvage out out Staten Island, NY completed phase two of its contract in demolishing two turn of the century school buildings in Somerville, NJ.
Using a Deere 450D mounted with a grapple both buildings were brought to the ground in less than 8 hours each.
Constructed of brick with wood joists and minimal steel supports the 2 1/2 story structures went down with little problem.
When abandoned for the renovation of a newer structure the two school buildings were offered up for sale with no takers. A last ditch effort by the school system to relocate its Board of Education there fell silent when they were found to be structurally unsound.
Key architectural elements were stripped and saved for integration into the new school's facade as well as much of the circa 1885 brick.
This video shows the demolition process from start to finish with one machine, a bobcat for clean up and clearing and 2 hose-men.
