Salvagio: A Marketplace for Materials Before the Skip

Why it surfaced

Its sample listing turns a familiar waste problem into a concrete clock: 412 square metres of oak parquet, three days to clear it, and prices that step down as the deadline approaches. The site is still pre-launch, but its phone-first workflow, escrow, collection handling, and diversion records give the proposal unusually tangible shape.

Salvagio connects demolition and strip-out contractors selling reclaimed materials by the lot with architects, builders, and makers who can buy them before disposal.
