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.

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.

Construction material and renovation debris

Special rules apply

Construction material is one of the reasons a city bin is left behind and it is not named in the bulky waste list, so a project load needs a private hauler.

City cost & eligibility
The city publishes no rate for construction material because it is not part of the curbside or bulky program. The city waste page names construction materials among the items that will leave a bin uncollected, and it publishes a list of Hartford area private waste haulers for the load, so call a hauler or Public Works at 860-757-9983 for the arrangement and price.
When & how
Arrange a private container or haul before the project generates debris, and keep construction material out of the city bin and out of any bulky pile.
Get it ready
Separate clean material such as concrete, brick and lumber from mixed debris so a hauler or facility can price the load, and keep hazardous waste out entirely because the bulky program excludes hazardous and toxic material.

The handoff matters

Right place.

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.

With a new purchase

Hire a private waste hauler for a project load

A household or contractor with construction, renovation or demolition material that the city bins and the bulky program will not take.

Cost & conditions
Private haulers set their own rates and the city publishes the list rather than a price, so call the hauler for a quote and ask whether the load needs a container.
Arrange it
Contact a hauler from the Hartford area private waste hauler list on the city waste page, or call Public Works at 860-757-9983 for guidance, and order the container before the project generates debris.

The load is not part of the city curbside or bulky program, so the price and the disposal destination come from the hauler. Hazardous material and Freon appliances still need their own arrangements.

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Hartford collects from one to six unit properties with city issued bins, and the bulky waste program is the route for anything large. Bulky waste covers appliances, electronics, small bundles of tree branches, tires, furniture, mattresses and other oversized items, and it is scheduled through Hartford 311 at 860-757-9311 or Public Works at 860-757-9983, with two free pickups per unit a year of five items or fewer, items out after 4 p.m. the night before or before 7 a.m. on the collection date, and a 99.00 fine for setting bulk items out without an appointment. Beyond the free allowance an extra collection is 75.00, or a 10.00 permit covers up to four trips to the transfer station. Hazardous and toxic material is never part of the bulky program: paint, solvents, pesticides, pool chemicals, batteries, motor oil, gasoline, propane tanks and fire extinguishers go to a Metropolitan District household hazardous waste collection, and Hartford's own collection day is October 24, 2026 at the MDC Operations Facility on Maxim Road, with residents able to attend any participating town's collection through the year. Electronics, needles, ammunition, flares, cement, railroad ties and Freon appliances are refused at those collections, so a television or computer uses the bulky pickup, a town electronics program or a retailer, and a refrigerant appliance needs a call to Public Works.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

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

How much does construction debris removal cost in Hartford?

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 Hartford?

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.

How do I get rid of construction debris in Hartford?

A city bin cannot carry it, because construction materials are named among the items that will leave trash uncollected, and they are not named in the bulky waste definition either. The city publishes a list of Hartford area private waste haulers for the load, so arrange a container or a haul before the project starts.Official guidance

Who collects trash in Hartford?

The city's Department of Public Works Waste and Recycling Division, for single family homes, multifamily buildings of six units or less and condo associations of six units or less. Hartford 311 answers service questions at 860-757-9311 Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., and bulky collections are scheduled through 311 or Public Works at 860-757-9983.Official guidance

What does a bulky waste pickup cost in Hartford?

Two pickups per unit a calendar year are free, each covering five items or fewer, on a one to six unit non commercial property, so a two family home gets four free pickups and a six family home gets twelve. Beyond that, an additional collection costs 75.00, a 10.00 permit covers up to four transfer station visits, and an unscheduled curbside pile carries a 99.00 fine.Official guidance

Where do paint and chemicals go in Hartford?

To a Metropolitan District household hazardous waste collection, which Hartford residents may attend in any participating town. Hartford's own collection is Saturday, October 24, 2026 from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the MDC Operations Facility, 125 Maxim Road, and the regional schedule runs Saturdays from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. through the year with one Sunday collection on May 17, 2026. Identification is checked and the driver stays in the vehicle while the contractor unloads.Official guidance

Where do electronics go in Hartford?

Electronics are named in the city's bulky waste definition, so a television or computer can go on a scheduled bulky pickup inside the free allowance, and Connecticut law requires towns to collect computers, televisions, monitors and printers without a fee for those four categories. The MDC packet also lists Green Monster e-cycling in West Hartford, Staples and Best Buy, while the hazardous waste collections take no electronics at all.Official guidance

What happens to leaves and yard waste?

The city runs a Leaf Collection Program so residents can dispose of fallen leaves before the first heavy snowfall, following the zone schedule posted with the program, and it publishes a summer yard collection sheet as well. Small bundles of tree branches are also named as bulky waste, so branches can go on a scheduled bulky pickup.Official guidance

What if I live in a building with more than six units?

The city does not collect from commercial property, an apartment complex or a multifamily building with more than six units, and those properties are told to contact their management company or landlord. The bulky waste allowance is written for one to six unit non commercial properties, so a larger building has to arrange disposal privately.Official guidance
