# JJ's Waste & Recycling

> JJ's official North End page describes a construction-and-demolition recovery facility at a former hard-rock quarry in Oxenford, South East Queensland. Mixed incoming waste is sorted and screened to recover soil, steel, concrete, timber, and green waste. Some recovered fractions go off site for recycling or beneficial reuse; others are processed at North End into products such as turf-underlay soil, crushed-concrete road base, and drainage aggregate. Residuals are used in quarry restoration or transferred to licensed sites. The page gives no current tonnage, product tests, or open sales inventory.

## A named facility and a defined feedstock

JJ's identifies North End as its construction-and-demolition resource recovery facility in a former hard-rock quarry at Oxenford, South East Queensland. The described input is mixed C&D waste, not a universal acceptance promise for every demolition load or waste code.

### Several fractions, two destination types

The facility says it sorts and screens soil, steel, concrete, timber, and green waste. Some fractions are sent off site for recycling or beneficial reuse; others are further processed at North End into turf-underlay soil, crushed-concrete road base, and drainage aggregate. The page does not give current output quantities, grade specifications, or buyer details.

### Residuals are not product output

JJ's says residual waste is either placed as part of ongoing quarry restoration or transferred to licensed sites. That residual route must remain separate from recovered commodities and products. To qualify a material, obtain lot-specific test data, source composition, production quantity, and end-use approval.

## Material Transition editorial interpretation

For a specific North End product, request the current specification, feedstock and recycled-content definition, test results, contaminants, production period and quantity, and intended civil or landscaping use. Confirm whether the lot is produced at North End or sent to another reprocessor, and keep quarry-restoration residuals separate from marketable products.
