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 and remodeling debris

Not on the regular city route

Construction material is refused in the garbage container and moves in a city-rented open-top container.

City cost & eligibility
The city refuses construction debris and building materials in the garbage container, and it also requires by ordinance that all open-top containers be rented exclusively through the City of Harlingen, with an exception only when the city cannot supply one. The rental forms hold the pricing, so the amount is confirmed with the sanitation office rather than quoted here.
When & how
Arrange the container through the city before the project starts, since construction material cannot go in the household container and a project load needs its own container.
Get it ready
Complete the accounts receivable set-up form and the open-top container terms and conditions form from the sanitation operations page, then contact the office to arrange payment. Keep construction material off the street, sidewalk and storm drains, and never put it in the household container.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

What never goes in the garbage container

Construction debris, building materials and furniture may not go in the garbage container, because the material damages equipment and containers and a contaminated container is left behind. Furniture and bulky items go out with the brush and debris collection instead, and a project load needs a city-rented open-top container.

Placement that protects the drains

Residents with an alley put brush and limbs in the alley directly behind the property without blocking it, and residents without an alley put them at the front by the roadway or street edge. Material may not go on the street, the sidewalk, a vacant lot, another person's property or a storm drain, and blowing clippings or limbs into a street or drain is prohibited because it causes drainage problems and possible flooding.

Open-top containers come from the city only

A city ordinance requires that all open-top containers be rented exclusively through the City of Harlingen, with an exception only when the city cannot supply one because of availability or shortage. Residential and commercial customers complete the accounts receivable set-up form and the open-top container terms and conditions form from the sanitation operations page, then contact the office to arrange payment.

For your Dropcurb pickup

City of Harlingen Public Works Sanitation Division and Transfer Station

Rent an open-top container from the city

A household or business with a construction or clean-out load that cannot go in the garbage container.

Cost & conditions
The open-top container terms and conditions form carries the pricing and the city rents these containers exclusively, so confirm the container size, the terms and the amount with the sanitation office on (956) 216-5300 before the form is submitted.
Arrange it
Complete the accounts receivable set-up form and the container rental form from the sanitation operations page, then contact the office to arrange payment and delivery.

The city may be unable to supply a container because of availability or a shortage, which is the only exception to the city-only rental rule, and the load still cannot go in the household container.

Taking it somewhere yourself?

A Harlingen household that hauls its own material has two city gates plus the ordinance route. Recyclables go to the city containers at 1006 South Commerce, open weekdays from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. for the materials the city lists. Refuse goes to the transfer station at 4900 E. Harrison Road, open Monday to Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 3:45 p.m. and Saturday from 7:30 a.m. to 2:45 p.m. but closed on six listed holidays, where loads are consolidated and hauled to the Brownsville landfill and the tipping fees are set by city ordinance. A construction load needs a city-rented open-top container instead, because the ordinance requires all open-top containers to come from the city except when it cannot supply one, and the rental forms hold the pricing.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

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

How much does construction debris removal cost in Harlingen?

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 Harlingen?

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.

Can construction debris go in the garbage container?

No. The city states that garbage containers may not contain construction debris or building materials because the material can damage equipment and containers, and a contaminated container is left unserviced.Official guidance

Can I rent an open-top container from anyone?

No. A city ordinance requires all open-top containers to be rented exclusively through the City of Harlingen, with an exception only when the city cannot provide one because of availability or shortage. Residential and commercial customers complete the account and container forms and arrange payment with the office.Official guidance

Where are the collection and tipping fees published?

In two city ordinances linked from the transfer station page: one for brush and yard waste collection services and charges, and one for solid waste and sanitary transfer station charges. Neither could be read during this research, so the office confirms the amounts.Official guidance
