Loose remodel and tear-out debris — lumber, drywall, flooring, cabinets, insulation, packaging — loaded from where it sits at Tempe job sites 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.
Same-day service runs across Tempe every day: apartments and rentals around ASU and downtown with elevators, stairs and tight parking, the older neighborhoods like Maple-Ash and Mitchell Park where alley access matters, and the family homes in Warner Ranch, The Lakes and south Tempe.
Tempe construction debris removal covers Downtown Tempe and ASU, Maple-Ash, Mitchell Park, Kiwanis Park, Warner Ranch, The Lakes and South Tempe, plus the rest of Tempe. Not sure about your street? Text the address and we confirm.

What construction debris removal costs in Tempe
Haulo prices from your photos and confirms the price before anything is loaded. 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. What moves the number:
Prices checked 11 Sep 2026.
Nails, sharp edges and awkward lengths that slow the loading
Whether the job is one pickup or a standing arrangement between phases
How much material there is, and whether it is one load or several
How much of it is heavy: tile, concrete, plaster, dirt, rock
Worth knowing before you call anyone: Tempe's bulk collection for residential customers is every other month, up to 10 cubic yards out by 6 a.m. Monday of your week, and does not take freon appliances, tires, glass, dirt, rock, concrete or construction debris (tempe.gov, checked 8 Sep 2026). Haulo is a private hauler, not the city program; the trade-off is cost against timing, access and what is accepted. More typical ranges are on the pricing page.
How construction debris removal works in Tempe
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.
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.
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.
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.

Construction debris removal in Tempe: the every-other-month bulk pickup or Haulo?
Tempe’s program refuses appliances with freon, tires, glass, mirrors, hazardous chemicals, car parts, dirt, rock, concrete and construction debris, so remodel debris never goes in the bulk pile. That leaves a dumpster, which sits in the driveway for a week, or Haulo, which loads the debris from where it sits and hauls it the same day, with no waiting for up to two months.
Haulo is in Tempe every day, with same-day service for texts before 7 p.m., apartments and rentals around ASU and downtown with elevators, stairs and tight parking, the older neighborhoods like Maple-Ash and Mitchell Park where alley access matters, and the family homes in Warner Ranch included, with no waiting for up to two months.
Tempe pile limit
Up to 10 cubic yards at the curb.
Tempe timing
Every other month; out by 6 a.m. Monday of your week.
Not accepted by Tempe
Appliances with freon, tires, glass, mirrors, hazardous chemicals, car parts, dirt, rock, concrete and construction debris.

Construction Debris Removal questions from Tempe
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.
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.
I rent in Tempe. Does the city bulk pickup cover me?
Only if your building is on residential city collection, and it runs every other month. Most apartment turnovers cannot wait for that and the pile is upstairs anyway. Text photos, tell us the floor and whether there is an elevator, and we schedule around the building.
Can I use Tempe bulk trash instead of Haulo for construction debris removal?
Yes, when it fits the rules: every other month; out by 6 a.m. Monday of your week, up to 10 cubic yards at the curb, and nothing on the refused list (appliances with freon, tires, glass, mirrors, hazardous chemicals, car parts, dirt, rock, concrete and construction debris). If it can wait for up to two months and you can get it to the curb, the city is the cheaper choice and we will say so. Haulo is for what does not fit: items still inside, more than up to 10 cubic yards at the curb, refused materials, or a date that cannot wait for up to two months.
What does Tempe bulk trash refuse that Haulo will take?
Tempe refuses appliances with freon, tires, glass, mirrors, hazardous chemicals, car parts, dirt, rock, concrete and construction debris. Of those, Haulo takes freon appliances, dirt, rock, concrete and construction debris, along with remodel debris and oversized single items. Tires and hazardous chemicals stay off our trailer as well; the what-we-cannot-take guide lists the drop-off programs.
