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.

Match your item

Construction cleanup starts with the right items.

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.

  1. Arrange the removal work

    Have the fixture safely detached and any plumbing or electrical connections handled by an appropriate professional. We do not remove installed fixtures or perform demolition.

  2. Keep the booked items separate

    Have the fixtures empty and ready at ground level. Keep them apart from rubble, loose renovation materials, tools and anything you want to keep.

  3. Show the outdoor handoff

    Use a permitted outdoor spot with a clear path. Add a location photo and notes on your order page so the right entrance and the right items are easy to identify.

Construction and demolition material

Not on the regular city route

Building and demolition material is refused in the City program, and residents have to arrange removal through a private outfit.

City cost & eligibility
Medford does not collect this material. The City states that building and demolition items cannot be taken and that residents must make their own arrangements through a private outfit, naming sinks, toilets, bathtubs, doors, windows, screens, lumber, fencing, play structures, concrete, brick, stones and rocks and wall to wall carpet among them. A project load needs a private hauler or container company, and the department of public works on 781-393-2417 can answer a question about what the City will accept.
When & how
Arranged privately rather than through the City collection, so the load is not set out on the collection day.
Get it ready
Keep building and demolition material out of the bulky pile and out of the recycling bin, because the City refuses it in both. Note that a toilet or a sink is a demolition item rather than a bulky household item here, and that a refrigerator or a television is recycled through the hauler's metals and electronics route instead.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

Building material and contaminants are refused

Sinks, toilets, bathtubs, doors, windows, screens, lumber, fencing, play structures, concrete, brick, stones and rocks and wall to wall carpet are building and demolition materials that Medford cannot take, so residents arrange those through a private outfit. In the recycling bin the City refuses polystyrene, plastic bags, carton packaging, batteries, light bulbs, mirrors, window glass, chemical containers and electronics.

For your Dropcurb pickup

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.

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Medford runs its collection through a city contract, and the two things to keep straight are the timing and who gets paid. Trash and single stream recycling go out together, both by 7:00 a.m., and nothing goes to the sidewalk before the late afternoon or early evening of the day before pickup, because the City fines early set outs. Anything that will not fit the cart is scheduled with the hauler instead of the City: furniture, bedding furniture and area rugs through the bulky item collection at one per item rate, and white goods, appliances, metal items, lawn mowers, snow blowers, exercise equipment, televisions and monitors through the metals and electronics route at their own per item rates, with the metals and electronics pickups limited to Tuesdays. Building and demolition material is refused outright and has to be arranged privately, and mercury bearing items such as compact fluorescent bulbs, thermometers and button cell batteries can be dropped at the City Hall public works office along with nickel cadmium batteries and fluorescent tubes under the published size and count limits.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

Construction debris removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Medford.

How much does construction debris removal cost in Medford?

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 Medford?

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.

Can the City take a toilet or a sink?

No. Medford lists sinks, toilets, bathtubs, doors, windows, screens, lumber, fencing, play structures, concrete, brick, stones and rocks and wall to wall carpet as building and demolition materials that cannot be taken, and residents have to arrange removal through a private outfit.Official guidance

Who collects the waste in Medford?

Waste Management, under the city contract, with the City setting the rules. Curbside trash and single stream recycling come on the same day, bulky items and the metals and electronics routes are scheduled and paid through the hauler, and the department of public works on 781-393-2417 handles City questions and the City Hall drop off.Official guidance

How do I find my collection day and bin schedule?

Follow the City calendar and the blue or green bin schedule for the address, which sets the weeks for recycling and the collection day. Recyclables go out on the same day as trash, both by 7:00 a.m., and nothing is placed at the sidewalk before the late afternoon or evening of the day before pickup.Official guidance

Where do batteries go?

Nickel cadmium rechargeable batteries and cell phones can be recycled at City Hall Room 304 through the department of public works, and button cell batteries and mercury bearing devices go to the same office. Batteries are excluded from the curbside recycling bin.Official guidance

Can clothing and textiles be recycled?

Yes, through a City partnership that collects unwanted clothing and textiles, with a three bag minimum for a pickup to keep routes efficient. Bagged textiles can also be dropped at collection bins at Medford public schools, including Curtis Tufts, McGlynn and Missituk, and those donations generate funding for each school's parent teacher organization.Official guidance

What is the cheapest way to clear a large item?

Donation first, since the City lists Vietnam Veterans of America and the Salvation Army for usable items and asks residents to consider donating before scheduling a pickup. After that the cost depends on the item: the bulky furniture rate is the lowest published charge, white goods, metal items and exercise equipment are higher, and a television or monitor is higher again.Official guidance
