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 debris is not collected on the trash route, so it goes to the transfer station by weight or into a rented roll-off container.
City cost & eligibility
From $150 per ton for construction debris brought to the Plainfield Environmental Resource Center by a Plainfield resident. Bulky waste carries its own published per ton rate, a vehicle from outside Plainfield pays a higher per ton rate with a one ton minimum, and rental vehicles are not allowed at the transfer station. Roll-off containers are rented under a container usage agreement.
When & how
Drop the load during transfer station hours, or start a roll-off rental by emailing the signed container usage agreement to the utility.
Get it ready
Separate hazardous material from the load before it moves, because paint, solvents, motor oil and similar liquids cannot go to the transfer station. Contractors and other non-resident vehicles need a DEP sticker and must stay within the posted vehicle weights.
Anything that will not fit a container is bulky waste, collected by appointment or dropped at the transfer station, with two standard disposals a year included for a property location.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Two standard bulk disposals per calendar year, per property location, are included with service for Plainfield property owners, arranged first come, first served and only by the property owner. A drop-off load is billed by weight, a car load of bulk material carries a published flat rate, and an on-demand pickup carries its own published fee.
When & how
Call 908-226-2518 to book an appointment, or use the transfer station during posted hours for a drop-off. On-demand pickups cover urgent situations under the published rules and fees.
Get it ready
Keep tires out of the regular route: rims must be removed, a household is limited to four tires per drop-off with a fifteen tire maximum, and car tires are billed per tire up to four before larger loads are billed by weight. Motor oil is taken separately at the transfer station, free to residential customers up to two gallons per visit.
Bulky waste is never taken on the regular trash day. Only the property owner can reserve an appointment, appointments are first come, first served, and the City counts two standard bulk disposals a year per property location as included with service.
Schedule the mattress pickup first, then wrap the mattress completely in plastic before the crew arrives, because the utility will not pick up an unwrapped mattress. The rule exists to protect the crews and the neighborhood.
The Plainfield Environmental Resource Center at 95 Rock Avenue is open to Plainfield residents and property owners, who must show identification and proof of residency or property ownership. Contractors need a DEP sticker, posted vehicle weights apply, and cash, check, Visa and Mastercard are accepted.
Aerosol cans, wet or latex paint, fluorescent bulbs, syringes, motor oil and filters, smoke detectors, propane tanks, medication and helium tanks never go in either container. Union County runs free household hazardous waste events from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., and the county refuses latex paint, medical sharps, alkaline batteries, unlabeled containers and anything larger than five gallons.
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.

Utility roll-off container

Arrange it
Download the container usage agreement, complete and sign it, and email it to the utility's roll-off address.
