The cleanup after the work
The project is done. Get your space back.
The new bathroom is ready, but the old vanity is still outside. A replaced door is taking up space you need. Put those leftover items on a pickup plan, with the price settled and updates through the final haul-away.
Price the item you actually have.
Choose a door, toilet or bathroom vanity and see the price online. Each listed item has its own price, so you can settle the cost before booking.
Put a day behind the plan.
Choose an available pickup date. Book by 2pm local time for same-day pickup, where available, once you can have the item ready outside.
Know when the last item is gone.
Get updates along the way, a text before arrival and pickup photos when it is done. You can follow the pickup without waiting beside the item.
We currently accept the doors, toilets and bathroom vanities listed here, already detached and ready outside. Choose each item separately. Mixed drywall, tile, concrete, lumber and demolition rubble are not accepted, including in bags.
Doors
Count each detached door panel separately. Have it removed from its hinges before pickup. A whole installed doorway or garage door is not the same item.
Toilets
Choose Toilet for an ordinary household toilet that has already been disconnected, drained and moved outside. Text a photo before booking if yours is broken or has loose sharp pieces.
Bathroom vanities
Choose the small, standard or large bathroom vanity that matches your sink cabinet. A makeup table has a separate choice. Plumbing disconnection and removal from the wall happen before pickup.

Construction and renovation material is refused on the large item pickup and in the carts, so a project load moves through a container from a licensed private hauler, with a permit when the container sits on City property.
City cost & eligibility
The City lists wood, concrete, bricks, drywall, wall-to-wall carpeting, dirt, tree trunks and plumbing fixtures such as water heaters as prohibited large item material, and refuses construction debris and dirt, rock, sod and concrete in the trash bin, so no curbside route takes a project load. Dumpster and roll-off rentals have to come from a licensed private hauler, and the City publishes a reference list of local transfer stations that are open to the public, which carries its own instruction to call ahead for prices and accepted materials.
When & how
Order the container from a licensed private hauler before the work starts, and apply for a Public Property Encroachment Permit through the Community Development Department at 310-618-5898 if the container will sit on City property.
Get it ready
Keep construction material out of all three carts and off the large item pile, and keep paint, solvents and treated material for a household hazardous waste drop-off. Wall-to-wall carpeting is refused on the pickup and can instead be recycled through the carpet recovery programme the City links, so keep it out of the mixed debris.
Hazardous material and electronics go to a drop-off
Paint, cleaners, motor oil, auto products, batteries, fluorescent tubes and bulbs, mercury equipment, sharps, medicine, non-empty aerosol cans and electronic waste cannot go in any cart or on the large item pile. Take them to the Gaffey Street collection center at 1400 North Gaffey Street in San Pedro on weekends from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., or to the EDCO center at 2755 California Ave in Signal Hill on the second and fourth Saturday from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., both free to county residents.
Use a permitted, accessible outdoor spot. Arrange the move out of your home, keep shared access clear and follow your confirmation’s readiness instructions. Check with your building about access or staging limits before booking.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Construction debris removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Torrance.
How much does construction debris removal cost in Torrance?+
Pricing is per accepted item. A detached door is $99 as a single item, an ordinary toilet is $79, and a small bathroom vanity is $99. Larger vanities have their own choices. Select the listed items to see the exact combined price. These prices do not cover mixed rubble or loose building materials. Loading, transportation and disposal are included; applicable sales tax appears before payment.
Can I get same-day toilet or vanity pickup in Torrance?+
Book by 2pm at your pickup address for same-day pickup, where available. Checkout shows the dates you can choose. Arrange disconnection, removal and the move outside first, then have the fixture ready by the time in your confirmation. We text you before arrival and provide pickup photos when it is done.
Will you disconnect a sink or take a door off its hinges?+
The fixture must already be detached, disconnected and accessible outside at ground level. Arrange plumbing, electrical work, removal from walls or hinges, and indoor carrying before pickup. Dropcurb handles loading and haul-away from your outdoor pickup spot.
Can I add bags of drywall, tile or other demolition waste?+
Mixed drywall, tile, concrete, lumber and demolition rubble are not accepted. This page offers pickup for the listed doors, toilets and bathroom vanities that are already removed. Do not book loose building materials as household trash bags or as an extra item. Arrange suitable disposal for those materials with your contractor or a debris specialist.
Can a door, toilet and vanity go in the same pickup?+
Yes. Add each listed fixture separately and choose the correct vanity size. Each detached door panel counts as one item. The combined price appears before you book. Keep the fixtures together outside, separate from anything staying, and add a location photo on your order page.
How do I get a dumpster for a project?+
Dumpster and roll-off containers have to come from a licensed private hauler, because the City does not rent them. If the container will sit on City property it also needs a Public Property Encroachment Permit, arranged with the Community Development Department at 310-618-5898.Official guidance
Can I haul a project load somewhere myself?+
The City keeps a reference list of local transfer stations open to the public, including yards in Gardena, Long Beach, Compton, Wilmington, Downey, Signal Hill and Carson. The City marks that list as reference only and subject to change, tells residents to call ahead about pricing, hours and accepted materials, and notes that Torrance residents with proof of residency can receive discounted City rates there.Official guidance
Who collects trash in Torrance?+
The City's own Public Works Sanitation Division, which runs weekly trash, recycling and organics collection for about 29,500 single family homes, duplexes and select three and four unit properties. Customer service is 855-354-5623 Monday through Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., and commercial and multi-family property service runs through private haulers instead.Official guidance
What does weekly collection cost a household?+
The monthly rate depends only on the size of the trash container, and the City publishes a five year schedule of increases through July 1, 2027. Recycling and organics containers carry no monthly charge, up to two extra recycling or organics carts are free apart from the delivery fee, and an additional refuse container carries its own published monthly rate.Official guidance
Is there a discount for a senior or disabled resident?+
Yes. The low income senior and disabled rate requires a 64-gallon refuse cart, a resident who is 62 or older or permanently disabled, and a household income inside the programme limits. Applications go through the Finance Department utility billing line at 310-618-5830.Official guidance
Can I take my own load to a transfer station?+
The City publishes a reference list of local transfer stations open to the public, in Gardena, Long Beach, Compton, Wilmington, Downey, Signal Hill and Carson. The City marks the list as reference only and subject to change, asks residents to call ahead about prices, hours and accepted materials, and notes that Torrance residents can receive discounted City rates with proof of residency.Official guidance
