Our United Villages is a non-profit agency dedicated to bringing people together to share ideas, inspire actions, and strengthen communities. Our United Villages is invested in the material and human resources that are available in our community to create sustainable solutions.

Community Outreach provides opportunities to bring neighbors together to identify their common interests and to strengthen their own community.

The ReBuilding Center is a project of Our United Villages. DeConstruction Services, Driving Department and ReFind Furniture are services of The ReBuilding Center. These services divert 5 million pounds of reusable building materials from landfills each year.

ReBuilding Center accepts donations of reusable building materials and sells them to the community at 50-90% off retail value. Two-hundred and fifty visitors come to the ReBuilding Center everyday to browse the inventory that changes every 15 minutes.

DeConstruction Services is a sustainable alternative to demolition by hand-dismantling complete structures and building components, making them available for reuse. They systematically deconstruct everything from kitchen cabinets to whole commercial buildings. They go to great lengths to keep materials out of the landfill, down to re-bagging insulation and de-nailing lumber.

Driving Department picks up pre-approved loads of pre-approved donated reusable building materials for free. They give tax-deductible receipts and pick up the equivalent of 2-3 20 foot flat bed trucks per day.

ReFind Furniture demonstrates re-use by creating home furnishings from reclaimed materials. This furniture is sold to the community and on display in the showroom for inspiration. They also offer classes about creating and renovating using reusable building materials such as "Make a Table From a Door", "Power Tools For Women" and "Concrete Countertops 101".
