Woodstock & Hoffman Estates, IL · Illinois' first shingle recycler

Shingle recycling in northern Illinois: old roofs, new roads

Skip the landfill. Bring clean tear-off shingles to our Woodstock or Hoffman Estates site or have a shingle recycling dumpster delivered. We've ground more than 350,000 tons of shingles for hot mix asphalt.

Illinois' first shingle recycler

Keep old roofing shingles out of the landfill

Falcon Green Resources has produced more than 350,000 tons of ground shingles for use in hot mix asphalt. That helps reduce crude oil extraction and saves space in our landfills, and the positive impact on the environment is obvious.

Roofers, contractors and homeowners can drop clean tear-off shingles at our Woodstock transfer station or our Hoffman Estates facility, or we can supply a dumpster for your job. Either way, your old roof goes into new pavement instead of a landfill.

Why it works for hot mix

Benefits of using recycled asphalt shingles (RAS) in hot mix asphalt

Hot mix asphalt producers have a great opportunity to “go green” by adding RAS to their mix design. Ask your hot mix producer if they offer an eco-friendly option made with recycled asphalt shingles.

Replaces virgin asphalt

RAS takes the place of virgin asphalt in the mix, helping reduce crude oil extraction.

Adds fiber for strength

The fiber in RAS increases the strength of the finished mix.

Adds high-quality trap rock

The trap rock in RAS improves skid resistance.

Not a hazardous material

RAS doesn't require special regulations, unlike hot liquid asphalt.

Easy, affordable stockpiling

RAS is a dry form of asphalt that's more affordable to store and stockpile.

Incentives and good PR

Government incentives lower the cost even further, and using eco-friendly products is good for public relations.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What happens to the shingles I recycle?

We grind them for use in hot mix asphalt as recycled asphalt shingles (RAS). RAS replaces virgin asphalt, which helps reduce crude oil extraction and saves landfill space.

Where can I drop off shingles?

Bring clean tear-off shingle loads to our Woodstock C&D transfer station or our Hoffman Estates facility on weekdays. See all drop-off locations for details and directions.

What size shingle dumpster do I need?

A 10 yard dumpster holds up to 35 square of shingles, and a 20 yard holds up to 75 square. Each includes 10 tons in the price. For bigger jobs, we can place multiple dumpsters on site.

How much does shingle recycling cost?

Our shingle recycling dumpsters include 10 tons in the price, and we offer price matching. Request a quote with your job details and we'll get right back to you.

Why recycle shingles instead of landfilling them?

11 million tons of shingles are disposed of every year, filling up valuable landfill space. Recycling them saves that space and cuts crude oil extraction, and a green pitch can help roofers win bids. See the benefits of shingle recycling.
