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

Reviewed · Sources below

Construction and renovation debris

Special rules apply

Construction material has two published routes: a small amount that fits in the black landfill cart with the lid closed, or a construction and demolition debris box for anything larger. The guide pairs concrete, drywall, cabinets, carpet, tile and similar material with the debris box.

City cost & eligibility
The city and RecycleSmart publish the debris box route without a rate, and the guide directs residents to the construction and demolition page for it. Confirm the box size, the included tonnage and the disposal charge with the hauler at (925) 685-4711 before ordering.
When & how
Request the construction and demolition debris box for the project, or call (925) 685-4711 to check the weight limit if a small amount is going in the black landfill cart with the lid closed.
Get it ready
Keep the load out of the blue and green carts, keep only what fits with the lid closed in the black cart, call for weight limits before bagging anything heavy, and keep hazardous material such as paint and solvents with the county facility instead.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

Between those days, book an on-call clean-up

A household that cannot wait for the next scheduled week has three published on-call options. One landfill clean-up a year covers up to fourteen 32-gallon bags of trash or the equivalent, and recycling or organics clean-ups are available up to four times a year when there is more material than the carts hold. Separately, items such as mattresses, non-working televisions, non-working refrigerators and large furniture are collected on-call for an added fee. All of it is booked with Republic Services at (925) 685-4711, and no single bag or item may weigh more than 50 pounds or run longer than four feet.

Hazardous waste has its own free facility, and carts have strict contents

Household hazardous waste never goes in a cart or a clean-up pile. Residents can use the Central Contra Costa Sanitary District facility at 4797 Imhoff Place in Martinez free of charge, and the list includes cooking oil, fluorescent lamps, propane cylinders, car batteries, fertilizers, cleaners and personal care products. The carts are strict in the other direction too: recyclables go loose into the blue cart and are never bagged, the green cart takes food scraps and uncoated food-soiled paper with no plastic of any kind, and household batteries go in a ziplock bag on top of the blue cart.

For your Dropcurb pickup

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.

No charge. Residents can use the Central Contra Costa Sanitary District household hazardous waste collection facility free of charge, while small businesses and other commercial entities can apply for an account.

Take the material to 4797 Imhoff Place, Martinez, CA 94553, and check the acceptable materials, directions and hours with the facility at (800) 646-1431.

Residential material is free and commercial material needs an account first. The facility publishes its own acceptable list and hours, and hazardous waste never belongs in a cart or a clean-up pile.

With a new purchase

Order a construction and demolition debris box

A household or contractor with concrete, drywall, cabinets, carpet, tile, doors or other renovation material that will not fit in the black landfill cart.

Cost & conditions
RecycleSmart publishes the debris box route for construction and demolition material without a rate, so the box size, the included tonnage and the disposal charge have to be quoted by the hauler at (925) 685-4711.
Arrange it
Contact the hauler to order the debris box for the project, then have it collected when the work is finished.

Construction and demolition material is not a Reuse Day or Cleanup Day item, hazardous material still goes to the county facility, and only a small amount that fits in the black cart with the lid closed may go out with the regular collection.

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Walnut Creek has no city transfer station or drop-off yard, so self-haul means the county facilities and the scheduled clean-up programme. Household hazardous waste goes free to the Central Contra Costa Sanitary District facility at 4797 Imhoff Place in Martinez, which the city publishes as free for residents and which takes cooking oil, fluorescent lamps, propane cylinders, car batteries, fertilizers, cleaners and personal care products, with small businesses required to apply for an account and hours confirmed at (800) 646-1431. Everything bulky is handled at the curb instead: the twice-yearly Reuse and Cleanup Days are pre-scheduled and mailed to each address, with Reuse Day collecting gently used items for donation through Mt. Diablo Resource Recovery and the following day collecting leftovers for landfill through Republic Services. Construction material has no city drop-off either, so a small amount that fits in the black landfill cart with the lid closed goes out with the regular collection after a weight check, and anything larger needs a construction and demolition debris box. Between the scheduled days, on-call clean-ups and item pickups are booked with Republic Services at (925) 685-4711, and RecycleSmart itself can be reached at (925) 906-1801 for anything the two haulers cannot resolve.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

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

How much does construction debris removal cost in Walnut Creek?

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 Walnut Creek?

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.

Where does construction debris go in Walnut Creek?

A small amount that fits in the black landfill cart with the lid closed can go out with the regular collection after checking the weight limit at (925) 685-4711, and anything larger needs a construction and demolition debris box, which the RecycleSmart guide pairs with concrete, drywall, cabinets, carpet, tile, doors and similar material. Confirm the box rate with the hauler before ordering.Official guidance
