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.

Construction and remodeling debris

Accepted with preparation

Construction and demolition material is accepted at the Materials Recovery Center rather than refused. Mixed loads such as lumber, brick, concrete, plastic sheeting and shingles are priced at the mixed waste rate, clean concrete is taken without rebar or embedded material, and pallets and clean wood carry their own lower per yard rate.

City cost & eligibility
From $10 per cubic yard of pallets and clean wood at the Materials Recovery Center, with mixed construction and demolition loads charged at the mixed waste rate of $24 per cubic yard that rises to $30 per cubic yard on October 1, 2026. Any household delivering its own load during Materials Recovery Center hours, with cash, check, Visa, Mastercard or Discover accepted and the fee assessed at the gatehouse.
When & how
Run the load to the Materials Recovery Center at 4587 Ridgeview Rd., open Wednesday through Saturday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and closed Sunday through Tuesday, and stop at the gatehouse so staff can assess the load and price it by volume.
Get it ready
Separate the streams before arrival, because the yard rate for pallets and clean wood is far lower than the mixed waste rate and clean concrete has its own rules with no rebar or embedded material allowed. Drain any small engine before bringing it in, since the centre takes small engines only with all fluids removed, and keep household garbage, hazardous waste and yard waste out of the load entirely because the site refuses all three.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

Duluth has no city trash or large item route

The city does not collect household trash or recycling, and it publishes no curbside large item pickup. Residents contract a waste hauler, and most haulers in the region offer single stream recycling, so all recyclables can go in one bin with no separation. The regional authority still requires residents to keep aluminum, steel and tin containers, glass containers, magazines, newspaper, plastic containers, paper and corrugated cardboard separated for recycling within that stream.

Three drop-off sites carry the awkward material

The Materials Recovery Center on Ridgeview Road is the site for furniture, household junk, construction debris, mattresses, appliances, electronics, tires, scrap metal and recyclables. The Household Hazardous Waste Facility on Courtland Street takes paint, chemicals, batteries, bulbs and sharps free from Minnesota households. The Yard Waste Compost Site on the same Courtland Street site takes leaves, grass and garden plants free and charges by the yard for brush, logs, dirt and sod.

Stop at the gatehouse and unload it yourself

The Materials Recovery Center is self service, so the household unloads its own material. Visitors stop first at the gatehouse, where staff assess each load and calculate the fee, and then drive to the appropriate station for recycling, reuse or disposal. The Reuse Area opens only to people who have items to drop off, and it closes thirty minutes before the centre itself closes.

Western Lake Superior Sanitary District, with curbside service from private haulers

Drop the load at the Materials Recovery Center

A household with furniture, household junk, a mattress, an appliance, electronics, construction or demolition material, tires or scrap metal to clear.

Cost & conditions
From $24 for a load at the Materials Recovery Center, where mixed waste covering household junk, broken furniture, old carpeting and construction material is billed at $24 per cubic yard and rises to $30 per cubic yard on October 1, 2026, pallets and clean wood at $10 per cubic yard, mattresses and box springs at $25 each, appliances and additional microwaves at $5 each with one microwave free daily, tires at $4 each after four free passenger or pickup tires daily, and electronics from free small items through $2, $9, $12 and $15 by device and screen size. Households and small commercial customers delivering their own loads during Materials Recovery Center hours, with cash, check, Visa, Mastercard or Discover accepted and the fee calculated at the gatehouse.
Arrange it
Drive to 4587 Ridgeview Rd. on a Wednesday through Saturday between 8:00 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., stop at the gatehouse to have the load assessed and priced, then unload at the stations for each stream. The site is closed Sunday through Tuesday and on the listed holidays.

The site does not accept household garbage, household hazardous waste, or leaves and yard waste material, and the household does the unloading because the centre is self service. Business customers face separate pricing and daily limits, and appliance and electronics retailers or repair centres are not eligible for those residential services.

Open the Materials Recovery Center page

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Self haul in Duluth means one of three district sites, and the right one depends on the material. The Materials Recovery Center at 4587 Ridgeview Rd. is the main stop, open Wednesday through Saturday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and closed Sunday through Tuesday, and it takes furniture and household junk, mattresses and box springs, appliances, electronics, tires, scrap metal, construction and demolition material, household recyclables, food waste in compostable bags, film plastic, holiday lights and cords, CDs and DVDs, and small electric appliances. It is self service, so the household unloads its own load, and the fee is calculated at the gatehouse before unloading, with the mixed waste rate rising on October 1, 2026. Under the same roof in spirit, the Reuse Area is open only to people who are dropping material off, and a household may take up to two items daily at no charge. Household chemicals do not come here at all, because the centre refuses household hazardous waste; they go to the Household Hazardous Waste Facility at 2626 Courtland Street, free for Minnesota households and for Superior residents inside the Wisconsin city limits, on Thursday through Saturday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., where paint, batteries of every type, automotive fluids and filters, cleaners, pesticides, fluorescent bulbs and medical sharps are all accepted. The same Courtland Street address holds the Yard Waste Compost Site, open seasonally from about the third week in April through the Saturday before Thanksgiving, where leaves, grass and garden plants are free while brush, logs, dirt and sod are charged by the yard with logs cut to four feet and no root balls.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

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

How much does construction debris removal cost in Duluth?

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 Duluth?

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.

Where does construction debris go in Duluth?

To the Materials Recovery Center at 4587 Ridgeview Rd., which takes mixed construction and demolition loads such as lumber, brick, concrete, plastic sheeting and shingles at the mixed waste rate, charges a lower per yard rate for pallets and clean wood, and takes clean concrete with no rebar or embedded material. It is self service, the fee is calculated at the gatehouse, and the site is open Wednesday through Saturday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.Official guidance

Who picks up trash in Duluth?

The city does not collect household trash or recycling, so each household contracts a waste hauler. Most haulers in the region offer single stream recycling, which lets all recyclables go in one bin with no separation, and the regional authority still asks residents to keep aluminum, steel and tin containers, glass containers, magazines, newspaper, plastic containers, paper and corrugated cardboard separated within that stream. Everything too large for the bin goes to a district drop-off rather than to the curb.Official guidance

What can I take to the Materials Recovery Center?

Furniture and household junk, mixed construction and demolition material, clean concrete with no rebar or embedded material, pallets and clean wood, appliances, mattresses and box springs, electronics, tires, scrap metal, household recyclables on a three sort system, food waste in compostable bags, film plastic that is clean and dry, holiday lights and electrical cords, CDs and DVDs out of their cases, and small electric appliances. Household garbage, household hazardous waste, and leaves or yard waste are not accepted there.Official guidance

Are there fees at the Materials Recovery Center?

Some streams are free and others are charged by the yard or by the piece. Household recyclables on a three sort system, scrap metal, food waste in compostable bags, film plastic, holiday lights and cords, CDs and DVDs out of their cases, and small electric appliances are free, and one microwave is free each day along with four passenger or pickup tires and the small electronics and rechargeable batteries. Mixed waste, which covers household junk, broken furniture, old carpeting and construction debris, is charged by the cubic yard and that rate rises on October 1, 2026, while mattresses and box springs are charged per piece and appliances per piece.Official guidance

What is the Materials Recovery Center Reuse Area?

It is the part of the site where reusable items go instead of the landfill, and staff decide whether a piece belongs there. It opens only to people who are dropping material off, so a resident has to be at the centre with a load to shop it, and a customer can take up to two items daily at no charge. The area keeps regular centre hours and closes thirty minutes before the centre itself closes.Official guidance
