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.

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.

Demolition, renovation and remodeling debris is outside the bulk service, waste from work that needed a city building permit is not collectible, and anything a contractor or a paid worker produced is that person's responsibility. The bulk page also routes building debris to the Building Inspector's Office to determine whether a permit is required.
City cost & eligibility
No city rate exists because the material is not part of the curbside service. The homeowner has to dispose of it and can deliver it to the Salem Transfer Station on Indiana Street or the Tinker Creek Transfer Station at 1020 Hollins Road NE in Roanoke under the resource authority's rules, which the authority explains on 540-857-5050; the city's twelve free drop-offs a calendar year apply to those trips.
When & how
Arrange the disposal before the work starts, because the material cannot go out with the routine bulk collection.
Get it ready
Keep renovation, remodeling and demolition debris separate from routine household bulk, keep it away from the curb, and note that building debris is inspected by the Building Inspector's Office to see whether a building permit is required, which puts permitted work in the contractor's or owner's hands.
Waste from work that needed a building permit, waste generated by a contractor or a paid worker, land clearing debris on unimproved residential property, dirt, rock and masonry debris, stumps, hazardous materials, gas cylinders, fuel tanks, fuel cans, barrels, items too large to be handled safely, items used in an industrial or commercial process and vehicle parts are all barred from bulk collection. Prohibited material must not be set out in a way that signals a need for collection.
Salem residents may use both the Salem Transfer Station at 1271 Indiana Street and the Tinker Creek Transfer Station at 1020 Hollins Road NE in Roanoke for brush or items that will not fit the tote, with a total of twelve free drop-offs in a calendar year counted across both sites. Latex paint, aerosol cans, lead acid car batteries, used antifreeze and used motor oil are taken at Tinker Creek during normal hours, and a wider range of items is taken there on the third Saturday of each month with registration at least twenty four hours ahead.
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.
City of Salem Sanitation Division inside Street and General Maintenance, with the Roanoke Valley Resource Authority
Use a Roanoke Valley Resource Authority transfer station
A household with brush, construction debris or any item that will not fit the tote and that the curbside program does not take.
Cost & conditions
No charge. Twelve drop-offs a calendar year are free to a Salem resident, counted across the Salem Transfer Station at 1271 Indiana Street and the Tinker Creek Transfer Station at 1020 Hollins Road NE in Roanoke. The authority applies material type and vehicle size restrictions, which it explains on 540-857-5050.
Arrange it
Load the vehicle, drive to either station, and keep the total number of visits across both sites inside the twelve trip annual allowance.

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?+
