When Alex Eaves and Derek "Deek" Diedricksen visited Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania with the Box Truck Tiny House, they spent a couple of days at Conjunction Junction, a building reuse center. Construction Junction’s mission is to promote conservation through the reuse of building materials. Material reuse includes reclaiming, salvaging, deconstructing, repurposing, and upcycling items to keep them in use and out of the waste stream. Learn more about Construction Junction here.
