Construction debris removal

Construction Debris Removal

Serving Mesa, the East Valley and the Phoenix metro with upfront pricing.

Loose remodel and tear-out debris — lumber, drywall, flooring, cabinets, insulation, packaging — loaded from where it sits and hauled away so the trades can keep moving. Price confirmed from photos before loading.

A remodel makes a pile faster than anyone plans for. Haulo takes the loose material off your hands without a dumpster sitting in the driveway for a week: the crew loads directly from the rooms, the patio or the pile by the street, and the trailer leaves when it is full. Contractors and homeowners both use us between phases of a job.

We serve Mesa, Gilbert, Chandler, Tempe, Scottsdale and Phoenix every day.

What this service handles

Material that is already detached, demolished or torn out and ready to load.

  • Framing lumber, trim, doors and cabinets
  • Drywall, plaster board and ceiling material
  • Blown-in and batt insulation, bagged or loose
  • Flooring, carpet, pad and underlayment
  • Removed fixtures, vanities and countertops
  • Fencing, decking and pergola material
  • Packaging, boxes and job-site trash
  • Whole-house tear-out debris cleared room by room

What we cannot take, and what we assess first

Two different lists. The first is a hard no; the second just needs a photo and a sentence before we confirm.

We cannot take

  • Asbestos-containing material, lead-contaminated debris and mold-remediation waste
  • Paint, solvents, adhesives, fuel and other liquids
  • Roofing tar, contaminated soil and anything with a chemical smell you cannot identify

We assess first

  • Paint — we can usually take it, but send a photo of the cans first
  • Concrete, block, brick, pavers, tile in quantity, dirt and rock — priced by weight, not volume; see concrete removal, rock removal and dirt removal
  • Material still attached to the house — that is light demolition, not debris removal
  • Very large piles that will take more than one load

What debris removal costs

Ordinary loose debris is priced on trailer volume and the labor to load it; heavy material is priced by weight because a small pile of tile can weigh what a whole room of drywall does. Both are confirmed from photos before loading. What moves the number:

  • How much material there is, and whether it is one load or several
  • How much of it is heavy: tile, concrete, plaster, dirt, rock
  • Whether it is piled where a trailer can back up, or spread through the house
  • Nails, sharp edges and awkward lengths that slow the loading
  • Whether the job is one pickup or a standing arrangement between phases

Typical range: $275–$500 for a remodel’s worth of loose debris; heavy material is priced by weight on top. Have a budget? Say so — we would rather work with it than lose the job. Separate the heavy material from the light where you can; it keeps the heavy price on only the heavy part. Typical ranges for common jobs are on the pricing page; they are planning examples, not quotes.

How a debris pickup works

  1. 01

    Send photos and access details

    Text a wide photo of the pile (or each room), a close-up of anything heavy, and the route to where the trailer can park.

  2. 02

    We confirm the scope, the price and an arrival window

    We reply with the number of loads and the price. If something needs a second look — suspected asbestos, a heavy pile — we ask before the visit.

  3. 03

    The crew removes the agreed items and cleans up

    The crew loads the agreed material, sweeps the loading area and takes payment when the load leaves.

What happens to the material

Loose debris goes to a licensed transfer station or construction-and-demolition facility; metal is separated for recovery where a facility accepts it, and clean concrete, block and rock can go to a recycler when one will take the load. Haulo does not publish a diversion percentage.

Proof of actual work

Remodel debris hauled out of two Mesa homes.

One was a whole-house tear-out — lumber, drywall, ductwork and mounds of blown insulation cleared room by room to the slab. The other was a single debris pile stacked on a brick patio. Actual before and after frames from each job.

Construction debris questions

Is this cheaper than a dumpster?
For a one-time pile, usually: you pay for what is loaded, there is no rental period and nothing sits in the driveway. For a multi-week job that produces debris every day, a dumpster can work out better; we are happy to say so.
Do you take concrete, tile and dirt?
Yes, priced by weight rather than volume. Photograph it separately from the light debris and we price the two parts on their own terms. See the concrete, rock and dirt pages for the details.
Will you demo the cabinets or pull the flooring?
Not under this service — debris removal is for material that is already loose. If you need something taken apart first, that is light demolition, which we also do; say so when you send photos.
What if there might be asbestos in it?
Tell us. Older drywall joint compound, floor tile, mastic and insulation can contain asbestos, and we cannot take material that is suspected of it. Have it tested or handled by an abatement contractor first.
Can you work with my contractor directly?
Yes. Have them text the photos and coordinate access; we confirm the price with whoever is paying.
Do I need to bag insulation?
Loose blown insulation is easier for everyone bagged, but it is not required. Tell us what you are dealing with and we plan the loading around it.

Still not sure about something? Text a photo to (480) 299-4648 and we’ll tell you.
