Where to drop off construction and demolition waste
Construction and demolition (C&D) waste is not collected at the curb. You must bring it to one of our waste facilities. The East Wrenford Waste Management Facility accepts C&D waste daily. The Northgate Drop-off Depot accepts smaller loads on designated days.

Tips to reduce construction waste
Reducing construction waste is a key goal of our Zero waste initiatives and goals. Before you bring materials to the landfill, consider these steps:
- Order materials carefully: Ask suppliers for exact quantities to avoid excess.
- Reuse and donate: Leftover lumber, fixtures, and appliances can often be used by local charities or community groups.
- Sort on site: Keep drywall, concrete, and wood separate. Recycled materials cost less to dispose of than mixed loads.
- Check the Waste wizard and disposal guide: Look up items you are unsure about before you load your truck.
