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 and demolition material is not on the bulky item list, so a renovation load moves in a roll-off bin from the hauler or in a self-hauled vehicle to the county transfer station on Garfield Avenue. The station takes only non-hazardous municipal solid and inert waste and charges by the ton.
City cost & eligibility
From $123.12 per ton of municipal solid and inert waste in the South Gate Transfer Station rates effective July 15, 2026, with hard to handle and bulky items at 138.12 per ton and pull-offs at 62.65 per load. Any customer delivering a non-hazardous load to the South Gate Transfer Station at 9530 Garfield Avenue, paid at the scales in cash, by credit or debit card, or on a pre-arranged account.
When & how
The transfer station is open Monday through Saturday from 6 a.m. to 5 p.m., closed Sunday and major holidays. A roll-off bin is arranged separately through the hauler's customer service line.
Get it ready
Keep hazardous and liquid waste out of the load because the station refuses both, arrive early enough to finish unloading before the late afternoon cutoffs, and separate clean inert material from mixed debris where possible because the rates differ.
Bed-frame parts, futons, couch beds, mattress pads and toppers, water beds, air mattresses, items with bed bugs and excessively wet, damaged or soiled items are all refused, and furniture is only taken when two people can lift the piece. Bundled wood has to be no longer than four feet, and construction and demolition material is not part of the program at all.
Finish unloading before the transfer station cutoffs
The South Gate Transfer Station takes only non-hazardous municipal solid and inert waste, weighs every load and takes payment in cash, by credit or debit card or on a pre-arranged account, with no checks. Hand-unloaded vehicles are not admitted after 4:30 p.m., self-dumping vehicles after 4:45 p.m., and all unloading has to finish by 4:50 p.m.
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.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Construction debris removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in South Gate.
How much does construction debris removal cost in South Gate?+
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 South Gate?+
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 construction debris go out as a South Gate bulky item?+
No. The city's bulky item list covers chairs, sofas, appliances, bed frames, mattresses, lawn furniture, rugs, bundled wood up to four feet and electronic waste rather than construction material, so a renovation load goes into a roll-off bin arranged through the hauler or into a self-hauled vehicle at the county transfer station on Garfield Avenue, which accepts only non-hazardous municipal solid and inert waste and charges by the ton.Official guidance

Can I take my own load to the South Gate Transfer Station?+
Yes.
