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 renovation debris

Accepted with preparation

Construction material is refused at the free cleanup pickup, where demolition and construction waste is prohibited, but the Drop-Off Depot accepts sheetrock, windows, shingles, fencing, landscape timbers, bricks and paving stones as part of a paid load, so renovation debris has a published route at a price.

City cost & eligibility
From $30 per load at the Drop-Off Depot, priced by the vehicle rather than by the contents. Prices are based on the type of vehicle used rather than the contents of the load: a car is 30 dollars, a pick-up, van or SUV is 40 dollars, a trailer of eight feet or less is 50 dollars and a trailer over eight feet is 60 dollars, and when both the vehicle and the trailer carry material both are charged. Independence residents only, with a valid driver's license or recent utility bill, residential waste only, and cash or local check only with no cards or coins, and loads must be tarped or secured.
When & how
Take the load to 875 S. Vista Avenue between 8 AM and 3 PM on the second Saturday from April to October, and note that the cleanup week adds a free depot day on Friday October 2 and a fee depot day on Saturday October 10.
Get it ready
Tarp or secure the load because Missouri statute requires that nothing can fall from the vehicle, keep the material out of the free bulky pickup because demolition and construction waste is prohibited there, and separate shingles and sheetrock into the same paid load rather than mixing them with household trash.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

The city licenses haulers instead of collecting

Independence states plainly that it does not provide residential trash service and that residents should contact a private trash hauler for weekly service. It publishes seven haulers licensed to operate in the city: AAA Disposal Service on 816-650-3180, Allied/Republic on 816-254-1470, Compost Connection on 816-761-8300, GFL Environmental on 816-380-5595, Stewart Hauling on 816-223-1920, Ted's Trash Service on 816-252-1594 and Waste Management on 913-631-3300, noting that some also offer recycling and that each company sets its own fees and schedules. The regional district's page for Independence adds a slightly different list of private subscription choices, so the two published lists are worth comparing before a household signs a contract.

The Drop-Off Depot charges by vehicle, with two exceptions

The Drop-Off Depot runs on the second Saturday of each month from April through October at 875 S. Vista Avenue, one mile east of M-291 on Truman Road north of Vista Avenue, from 8 AM to 3 PM, and during cleanup week it also adds a free depot day on Friday October 2 from 7 AM to 5 PM and a fee depot day on Saturday October 10 from 8 AM to 3 PM. The load price is set by the vehicle that carries it rather than by the contents, and when both the vehicle and the trailer carry material both are charged, with appliances and tires priced separately as the two published exceptions. Batteries and lawnmowers carry no fee. Entry is limited to Independence residents with a driver's license or recent utility bill, cash or local check only with no cards or coins, and loads must be tarped or secured under Missouri statute.

The free pickup and the paid depot accept different things

The one-time free IndeCleanup bulky item pickup and the Drop-Off Depot are not interchangeable, and the prohibited list at the pickup says so by pointing several items at the depot. The free pickup takes large and small appliances, auto parts, battery powered equipment with the batteries removed, a bed with its headboard, frame and mattress, bicycles, countertops and cabinets, drywall, carpet, empty cans and buckets, old trash cans and recycling bins, sinks and toilets and a water heater, up to five items per appointment for a single-family home or a building of six or fewer units. It refuses items containing refrigerant, tires, brush and lumber, dirt, tree stumps and trunks, lawn mowers and gas powered equipment, yard debris, commercial or industrial waste, demolition and construction waste, dead animals and animal bedding, household hazardous waste, abandoned vehicles and televisions, and several of those refusals are annotated as accepted at the Drop-Off Depots instead.

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Independence asks households to contract their own collection and then fills the gaps itself. The city states that it does not provide residential trash service, publishes seven licensed haulers with phone numbers and lets each set its own rates, and then runs a Drop-Off Depot on the second Saturday of each month from April through October at 875 S. Vista Avenue, where the charge follows the vehicle rather than the load: 30 dollars for a car, 40 for a pick-up, van or SUV, 50 for a trailer of eight feet or less and 60 for a longer trailer, with appliances at 20 dollars each, tires at 5 dollars each while there are fewer than five, and batteries and lawnmowers free. Once a year the city also runs a cleanup week with district by district curbside bulky pickup days, three neighborhood dumpsters open to any resident with proof of residency, and a one-time free bulky item pickup by appointment for single-family homes and buildings of six or fewer units, limited to five items per appointment with spots that are limited and with every item required to be listed in advance. The two routes are not interchangeable: the free pickup takes the bed, the furniture, the appliances, the carpet, the sinks and the bicycles, while refrigerant appliances, tires, brush, dirt, stumps, lawn mowers, demolition and construction waste, televisions and household chemicals are prohibited there and, where the city says so, accepted at the depot instead. Household chemicals go to the regional program coordinated by the MARC solid waste district: the city event on Saturday April 25 at Walnut and Liberty, the Kansas City facility on 4707 Deramus Street, the Lee's Summit facility on 2101 SE Hamblen Road, or one of ten mobile events across the region in 2026, all free to members of participating communities with proof of residency and residential waste only. Electronics are refused everywhere in the city, including televisions at the depot and monitors at the free pickup, so a screen has to go to one of the regional drop-off recycling sites the district lists for Independence.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

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

How much does construction debris removal cost in Independence?

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 Independence?

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 renovation debris go to the city depot?

Yes, for a fee. The Drop-Off Depot's accepted list includes sheetrock, windows, shingles, fencing, landscape timbers, bricks and paving stones, and the charge is based on the vehicle used rather than the contents: 30 dollars for a car, 40 for a pick-up, van or SUV, 50 for a trailer of eight feet or less and 60 for a longer trailer. The same material is prohibited at the free annual bulky item pickup, where demolition and construction waste is on the refusal list.Official guidance

What do I need to use the Drop-Off Depot?

Proof that the household is in Independence, brought as a valid driver's license or a recent utility bill, residential waste only with no commercial loads, and payment in cash or by local check because no credit cards, debit cards or coins are accepted. The load also has to be tarped or secured before arrival, because Missouri statute requires that no part of a load can fall from the vehicle.Official guidance

Why was my bulky item not collected?

The published reasons are putting out more than five items or items not on the approved list, items blocked by cars, fences or trees or not at the curb, items placed where crews cannot reach them, contamination with trash or with prohibited material such as paint, tires, yard waste, auto parts, loose building materials, masonry or household hazardous waste, and appliance problems such as a unit that was not emptied, cleaned or accounted for on refrigerant.Official guidance
