Green Dream Kitchens

Many of us dream of a total kitchen makeover complete with Sub-Zero, Viking and Miele luxury refrigerators, ranges, countertops and cook top appliances. But not many of us can afford it. Now Green Demolitions helps make our dreams come true. This NY area based company salvages gently-used high-end kitchens from the luxury home market where new home buyers are most likely to gut, teardown and rebuild their dream house. Green Demolitions arrives on the scene, carts everything away at no expense and recycles at a very reasonable purchase price to mainstream America.
And Green Demolitions doesn't stop at kitchens... they recycle bathroom pedestal sinks, whirlpool tubs, oriental rugs, pianos, lighting fixtures, antiques and even airplanes! Their website previews kitchens that are available now and in the future, and they currently feature their "Almost Free Sale" where until 1/31/08 they've cut their prices to 95% off retail value.
With the envious eye of a rental apartment dweller, I've looked at their website and they have really top-quality stuff. They also have 3 stores where you can review the products up close in Norwalk, CT, Bethel, NY and Honesdale, PA.
To make the process even sweeter, donors get tax and renovation savings, buyers pay 50-75% off market price and the environment is protected from more landfill and energy waste. If these benefits aren't enough to get your fingers dialing, please know that all the proceeds go to Recovery Unlimited, a 501c3 non-profit organization dedicated to All Addicts Anonymous (AAA) for all addicts and all addictions including alcohol, drugs, tobacco, food, depression, anxiety and anger. Recycling for Recovery... sounds like a deal in which everybody wins.

I am surprised that this website isn't more popular! The website has some very nice kitchens that look as good as new! Will definitely be looking here when I buy my first home!
