During the demolition, I brought home many of the studs from the
basement walls, and after leaving them out in the rain for a few
weeks, I soaked them with bleach, then hosed them well. I built a
garden shed out of them. Legally, I was not supposed to take them,
since they were considered contaminated, and even required a special
company to come and haul the stuff to a toxic disposal site. But what
they did not know, never hurt anyone, and since I used these boards
for a non-living space, it was no big deal, once I cleaned them. Of
course they were solid boards and could be cleaned, unlike particle
boards.


Sewage contaminated wood and items are not a toxic waste and do not require
disposal in anything other than a regular Class I landfill.
