Construction Debris Removal in Manitowoc, WI

Finished the bathroom remodel? Congratulations — now there is a half-ton of old drywall, tile, and a cast-iron tub in your garage, and the weekly trash guy wants nothing to do with any of it.

For remodel-sized debris, a pickup crew usually beats a dumpster: no metal box killing your lawn for two weeks, no permit for the driveway, no loading it yourself. We come once, load it all, and your garage is a garage again.

Debris we haul

• Drywall, plaster, and lath from tear-outs
• Lumber, trim, paneling, and cabinets
• Flooring — carpet, tile, hardwood, vinyl, and the underlayment
• Bathroom demo — tubs, toilets, vanities, and surrounds
• Roofing shingles from small jobs and repairs
• Windows, doors, and old fencing
• Concrete, brick, and block in modest quantities (priced by weight — ask)

Junk crew vs. dumpster: the honest math

A dumpster makes sense when debris is being produced continuously for weeks — a full gut renovation with a contractor. For a weekend-project pile that already exists, you would pay a similar amount for the rental, do all the loading yourself, and stare at the box until pickup day. We priced this page for the pile-already-exists situation, which around here is most of them.

Not sure which you need? Read our guide comparing the two, or just send a photo of the pile and we will tell you straight if a dumpster is the cheaper call for your job.

For contractors and flippers

Small crews around the Lakeshore use us as their on-call debris run — we swing by the job site between phases so the debris pile never eats the driveway, and your guys keep swinging hammers instead of loading trucks. Ask about recurring pickups.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is construction debris priced the same as regular junk?

Mostly yes — by truckload volume, per the ranges in the table above. The exception is dense material like concrete, brick, shingles, and plaster, which is priced by weight because a quarter truckload of concrete outweighs a full load of couches. Send a photo for a straight answer.

Do you take old toilets and bathtubs?

Yes — toilets, tubs (including cast iron), sinks, and vanities are routine. Cast-iron tubs sometimes leave in pieces; that is normal and included.

Should I rent a dumpster instead?

If a contractor is producing debris continuously for weeks, probably yes. If the pile already exists from a finished or weekend project, a one-visit crew is usually the same money with none of the loading. We will tell you honestly which fits your job.
