Former VHS Stöbergasse
Between July and September 2020, BauKarussell carried out the utilization-oriented dismantling of the former bfi and VHS site in Vienna-Margareten on behalf of SOZIALBAU AG. Installation boxes and floor coverings were removed, preparing 35,800 kg of material for sorted disposal. In addition, existing re-use products were secured and 800 kg of ash parquet were conveyed for reuse. A total of 36,600 kg of materials were moved using 720 hours of social work. The operational work was carried out by the socio-economic BauKarussell partner Die KÜMMEREI.
