The Raleigh rate: $120 a cubic yard

Construction and renovation debris is $120 per cubic yard in Raleigh, quoted flat before we set off. That covers the crew, the carry out of the house, the truck and the disposal. Yard waste, if the job also produced any, has its own rate of $88 per cubic yard. The minimum for any visit is $75.

What a cubic yard of debris looks like

A cubic yard is a cube three feet on each side. Demolition material is dense, so a pile that looks unimpressive in the corner of a room is often two or three yards — you do not need to measure it precisely. Describe the room and what came out of it and we will do the estimating for you.

Worked example: a bathroom gut

Four cubic yards of general debris at $480, plus the toilet at $64, the vanity at $69 and a fiberglass tub at $90 — $703 on live Raleigh prices, carried out and hauled in one visit.

Worked example: a kitchen remodel

Six cubic yards of cabinets, countertop, tile and backer board is $720. One flat figure, agreed before the truck leaves.

Or buy the truck space instead

When a job mixes debris with old cabinets, carpet and furniture, it is often simpler to price the volume. These are capacities and we book the smallest share that holds it all.

We will quote both routes and you take whichever suits the job.

We do the carrying

Debris does not have to be at the curb, bagged, or anywhere in particular. Second-floor bathroom, back bedroom, crawl space, the far end of the yard — we come to it and carry it out. That labor is inside the price rather than bolted on.

No surcharge for stairs or a long carry

Floor level, stairs, how far the truck has to park from the work, which Raleigh neighborhood the job is in and how soon you want us are all set to zero in our pricing engine. Demolition on a third floor is quoted exactly like demolition in a garage. Tell us so we bring enough hands.

Disposal is included

No tip fee, no fuel line, no per-ton charge, no environmental or recycling surcharge added afterwards. One flat number covers everything from your floor to wherever it ends up.

Staged jobs, staged visits

Demolition Monday, tile Wednesday, trim Friday — book each as its own visit at its own flat price. There is no penalty for splitting a job, and the $75 floor applies per visit, so clearing as you go keeps the site workable.

Contractors and homeowners, same list

Whether you are a GC clearing a site between trades or a homeowner who pulled out a bathroom over a weekend, the prices on this page are the prices. Nothing changes based on who is booking.

Same-day and next-day, no premium

Inspection tomorrow, or a floor crew arriving in the morning? Same-day and next-day slots are common across Raleigh, Cary, Durham and the rest of Wake County, and they cost exactly what a slot next month costs.

A quote takes about a minute

Type "gutted a bathroom, tub and toilet plus about four yards of debris" and a flat figure comes back. No site visit, no estimator appointment, no waiting for a callback. Call if you would rather describe it out loud.

If the pile grew

Extra volume is priced off the same public $120 per cubic yard rate, written up, and sent for your approval before it goes on the truck — arithmetic you can check against this page while the crew waits.

Demolition on a third floor is quoted exactly like demolition in a garage. Tell us when you book so we bring enough hands, then plan around a number that will not move.
