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.

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 and demolition material

Not on the regular city route

Building materials from construction, repair or remodeling are not collected and the owner has to have them privately removed.

City cost & eligibility
The city ordinance excludes building materials from collection, describing roofing, concrete, plaster, wallpaper, earth, trees and other substances resulting from construction, repair or remodeling of any building on private property, and it says the owner must have this waste privately removed, so the container and its price come from a private company.
When & how
Arrange private removal or a container before the work starts, because the city will not pick up this material on the garbage, trash or yard waste routes.
Get it ready
Keep roofing, concrete, plaster, wallpaper, earth and tree material from a construction or remodeling job out of the garbage container, the trash pile and the yard waste pile, and keep paint and chemicals on the commercial hauler route instead.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

Building materials, tires and hazardous waste stay off the curb

Under the city ordinance, building materials such as roofing, concrete, plaster, wallpaper, earth and trees from construction, repair or remodeling on private property are not collected and the owner must have them privately removed. Tires and automobile parts are not collected from residences and go to a dealer licensed by the Department of Environmental Quality, hazardous waste such as toxic materials, paint and medical waste needs a commercial hauler because the city is not authorized or equipped to handle it, and contracted tree removal debris is not eligible for the yard waste route.

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.

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Lake Charles runs garbage and trash collection from Public Works at 337-491-1220: bagged garbage goes in the city-provided ninety-eight-gallon container and is collected weekly, and trash, which is any other household refuse including furniture and bedding that will not fit the container, is collected along with yard waste at least twice a month. White goods are picked up when the city runs its citywide collection, but the owner has to call ahead and any refrigerant must be professionally removed first, and the items must be free of perishable food with doors or lids removed or taped shut. Building materials from construction or remodeling, tires and automobile parts, and hazardous waste such as paint, chemicals and medical waste are not collected, so private removal, a Department of Environmental Quality licensed dealer, or a commercial hauler handles them instead. Recycling moves with the Green Truck to a different site each weekday, and electronic waste is excluded from that stream and belongs at a designated e-waste facility that residents confirm through the same helpline.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

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

How much does construction debris removal cost in Lake Charles?

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 Lake Charles?

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.

Will Lake Charles take construction debris?

No. In accordance with the city ordinance, building materials such as roofing, concrete, plaster, wallpaper, earth and trees resulting from construction, repair or remodeling of a building on private property are not picked up, and the owner must have the waste privately removed. Arrange a private hauler or container before the work starts.Official guidance
