Don't Throw 'em Away

When remodeling your kitchen or bath the temptation is to rent a dumpster then smash and dash with the old cabinets. While this approach will save some time, it may not be the best idea for a number of reasons:
    1)Check your area for building supply recyclers, many will come out and not only buy your old cabinets from you but remove them as well.

    2) In some areas there are also charities such as "Habitat For Humanity" that will take old cabinets and put them to good use.

    3) Check into whether or not your old cabinets will qualify as a tax right off for charitable donations.

    4) You might also be able to sell your old cabinets online using something like "Craigslist".

    5) Old kitchen cabinets installed in your garage can help organize and make room for your car.

    6) Even if you can't turn your old cabinets into cash, reducing the overall cost of your remodel, re-using or otherwise recycling your old cabinets helps reduce ones carbon footprint.
