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.

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.

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.

The local disposal guide

What are your
local options?

Construction debris removal in Rochester: start with the item’s collection rules, then choose the arrangement that fits.

Reviewed · Sources below

Building and construction material

Special rules apply

The city separates building refuse by who generated it. Refuse from major repairs or remodeling carried out by the property owner may be prepared and placed out for collection, but the city will not collect waste generated by a contractor, and contractors have to arrange the proper and legal disposal themselves.

City cost & eligibility
There is no city rate to publish: owner-generated building refuse rides the annual refuse fee, while contractor-generated waste is refused at the curb and has to be disposed of privately. For a load that is too large or too quick for the regular route, the city's on demand service is arranged with the Commercial Refuse Business Office on 428-6928 and paid when the collection agreement is signed.
When & how
Prepare the owner-generated material for the regular collection day, and arrange a private hauler or the on demand service before work starts when the load is beyond what the weekly route can take.
Get it ready
Keep contractor-generated waste out of the curbside load entirely, because the city will not collect it. Follow the bulk preparation rules for what does go out: remove nails from discarded lumber or bend them over, tie long pieces in bundles within the published length, diameter and weight limits, and keep hazardous, flammable, radioactive, infectious, biomedical and explosive material out of the pile.

Book the on demand refuse collection

A household with extra refuse from a move-out, a gathering or a small home improvement project that cannot wait for the next collection day.

Cost & conditions
The city describes payment at the time the collection agreement is signed but publishes no amount, so confirm the charge with the Commercial Refuse Business Office at 428-6928, which also explains the other options available to property owners.
Arrange it
Contact the Commercial Refuse Business Office, describe what needs to be collected, meet the representative on site to sign a collection agreement, pay at that time, and the collection is scheduled for the next business day.

The service is a paid extra collection rather than part of the weekly route, payment is made at the agreement stage, and the same prohibited waste rules apply to what can be collected.

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Rochester households can self haul to the Monroe County ecopark at 10 Avion Drive, open Wednesday from 1 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. and Saturday from 7:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. and closed on holidays. The site is for Monroe County residents only, an appointment is required only for household hazardous waste, and the recycling stations are self-serve apart from that stream. Electronics, appliances, scrap metal, rechargeable and button batteries, fluorescent and CFL bulbs, sharps and syringes, pharmaceuticals, paper for shredding and household hazardous waste by appointment are all taken there. Tires carry a fee that depends on whether they are on or off the rim with a limit of four tires per person, an appliance that still contains refrigerant carries its own fee, and mattresses, household garbage, building materials, alkaline and lead acid batteries, used motor oil, asbestos, PVC pipe, radioactive materials, smoke and carbon monoxide detectors and Styrofoam food containers are refused.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

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

How much does construction debris removal cost in Rochester?

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 Rochester?

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.

Will Rochester collect construction debris?

Only when the property owner generated it. Building refuse from major repairs or remodeling by the owner may be prepared and placed out for collection, but the city states that it will not collect waste generated by a contractor and that contractors have to arrange the proper and legal disposal themselves. For a load that needs collection before the next regular day, the on demand service is arranged with the Commercial Refuse Business Office and paid when the collection agreement is signed.Official guidance

What will Rochester not collect?

Radioactive, volatile, highly flammable, explosive, biomedical, infectious, toxic or hazardous material, and any waste generated by a contractor rather than the property owner. Electronics cannot go in the trash or in curb recycling because New York State law prohibits it, so a television or computer has to go to a state electronic waste collection site. An overloaded wheeled container is not collected, glass and sharp objects cannot go in plastic bags, and the county ecopark refuses mattresses, household garbage, building materials, alkaline and lead acid batteries, used motor oil and several other categories.Official guidance
