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 material is not one of the residential streams, so a project load goes through the special waste vendor list or a self haul rather than the garbage day.
City cost & eligibility
The City publishes neither a construction collection nor a rate for it, and it lists regional special waste vendors for material that the household hazardous waste facility cannot take, so confirm the material, the receiving site and the price with a vendor before the load is staged.
When & how
Arranged with a permitted vendor rather than set out on the collection day, since the residential service covers garbage, recycling, yard waste and household bulk items only.
Get it ready
Keep construction material out of the garbage, the recycling toter and the yard waste piles. Long pieces and boards that do go out as bulk items have to be cut into sections no longer than four feet, and a resident who would rather not use the curbside route may transport bulk items personally to the Winnebago landfill.
The landfill and the vendor list are the backstops
A resident may transport bulk items personally to the Winnebago landfill instead of using the curbside collection, and for material the household hazardous waste facility cannot take the City publishes a list of permitted regional special waste vendors covering material from commercial, industrial and agricultural sources along with tires and electronics. The City labels that list a courtesy rather than a recommendation.
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.
A household, contractor or business with material that the household hazardous waste center cannot take, including a renovation load.
Cost & conditions
The City publishes the vendor names and numbers without rates, because each company sets its own price, so confirm the material, the receiving site and the cost directly with the vendor.
Arrange it
Call one of the permitted regional vendors, describe the material and confirm where the load will be taken before it is staged.
The City presents the list as a courtesy rather than a recommendation and states that it is not comprehensive, so a household still has to verify that the vendor handles the specific material.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Construction debris removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Rockford.
How much does construction debris removal cost in Rockford?+
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 Rockford?+
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 renovation debris go?+
Not on the garbage day. The City's residential service covers garbage, recycling, yard waste and household bulk items, and for material the household hazardous waste facility cannot take it publishes a list of permitted regional special waste vendors, while a resident may also transport bulk items personally to the Winnebago landfill.Official guidance
Who handles waste collection in Rockford?+

What does a bulk item cost?+
The City states that bulk items are subject to the bulk refuse rates in its fee schedule without restating the rates on the page, so the amount depends on the item and has to be confirmed with Rock River Disposal on 815-965-2489. An atypically large item has to be verified before it goes out at all.Official guidance
When does yard waste start and stop?+
Yard waste pickup runs only during the spring, summer and fall growing seasons and then stops for winter, with a Christmas tree collection in early January. The hauler describes the season as typically beginning in April and ending in late November, and the City announces the start and end of each season by press release and social media.Official guidance
