Does Tampa pick up construction debris?

Junk removal in Tampa starts at $79 with Dropcurb — same-day curbside pickup with no zone schedules to wait for. Tampa runs S.W.E.E.P. (Solid Waste Enhanced Environmental Program) with free 10-cubic-yard bulk pickup by zone, plus a free transfer station at 112 S. 34th St. But S.W.E.E.P. follows a fixed zone schedule you can't control, and New Tampa residents fall under Hillsborough County instead.

City program details: Tampa S.W.E.E.P. (Solid Waste Enhanced Environmental Program) + 112 S. 34th St Transfer Station. Frequency: set zone schedule throughout the year (S.W.E.E.P. collects ~2,893 tons of debris annually). Wait: varies by zone — check via Tampa Trash and Recycling app. Fees: free for Tampa city residents. Transfer station at 112 S. 34th St accepts large items, furniture, mattresses, and appliances free for residents. Note: New Tampa serviced by Hillsborough County, not city.

The McKay Bay Scalehouse at 112-114 S. 34th St is free for Tampa city residents — open Mon/Tue/Thu/Fri 7-5:30, Wed/Sat 7-3:30, closed Sun. Call (813) 242-5320. If your S.W.E.E.P. date has passed, you can call 311 to request an earlier pickup. Hillsborough County facilities (Northwest County at 8001 W. Linebaugh Ave) serve county residents. Speedy Hauling & Junk Removal starts at $85 minimum (volume-based, up to a full truckload). Dump My Junk LLC charges $120-$600 with a $120 minimum. Tampa Bay Junk Removal uses volume-based truck pricing with no hidden fees. 1-800-GOT-JUNK Tampa charges $150-600+ with mandatory in-person estimates. Average Tampa junk removal costs $210-$231 per job based on local project data (Homeyou, 2026).

Dropcurb picks up construction debris same-day in Tampa for $109 flat — no wait, no annual limits, no restrictions.

Free pickup on the city's schedule, not yours.

Tampa's S.W.E.E.P. program and 112 S. 34th St transfer station are both free — but one runs on a fixed zone schedule you can't control, and the other requires a truck trip across Hillsborough County. Hyde Park and Seminole Heights residents need items gone on their timeline.

What happens to your construction debris after pickup

Debris is routed to permitted C&D processing facilities where recyclable fractions are separated when feasible.

Why Tampa residents choose Dropcurb for construction debris removal

S.W.E.E.P. follows a fixed zone schedule you can't choose, and the free transfer station at 112 S. 34th St requires driving, loading, and unloading yourself. At $79, Dropcurb picks up same-day from your curb — no zone schedules, no self-hauling, no $150+ GOT-JUNK minimums.

Serving Hyde Park, Ybor City, Westchase, New Tampa, Carrollwood, Tampa Heights, and 4 more neighborhoods in Tampa.
