Construction Waste Management (CWM) and Pea Ridge Recycling assist with University of Mississippi Demolition Project
OXFORD, Mississippi – Construction Waste Management and Pea Ridge Recycling assisted Environmental Abatement Incorporated with the demolition of Kincannon Hall at the University of Mississippi. Construction Waste Management provided waste removal and disposal services while Pea Ridge Recycling was the recycling vendor for this project.
To keep up with record enrollment, the University of Mississippi is planning three new residence halls to be built on the site of Kincannon Hall. The building, which has been vacant since 2015, was scheduled for demolition during the summer to minimize disruption during the fall semester. The demolition phase began on May 31, 2023, and was completed on October 24, 2023.
Jay Luna, CWM’s Manager, said, “Being a local company, we feel a special connection to Ole Miss. We are excited to see the growth and development of the University campus, and the new buildings going up in the place of Kincannon Hall.”
