Construction & Storm Debris Minneapolis & St. Paul
Construction Debris Removal in the Twin Cities
Neither city’s bulky-item program takes remodel debris. Minneapolis won’t collect building materials, and St. Paul turns away drywall, concrete, bricks, and treated wood. When you gut a basement or redo a kitchen in a century-old house, the debris needs a hauler. Loads start at $241 for a quarter truck, and $431 buys half.

The Twin Cities are JunkRabbit’s newest market, so these are real Google reviews from our Miami customers — the same vetted-crew, flat-price service.
“Had a plan AND morning confirmation with [another junk remover] and they canceled last minute, an hour before. I was in a bind, and I called & texted the folks at JunkRabbit. They were fast, courteous and available on short notice.”

How Debris Is Taxed
Minnesota’s Solid Waste Management tax treats construction debris as its own category: it’s taxed by volume rather than at the 9.75% household rate.
Debris jobs are confirmed with you directly so the tax is calculated correctly for what’s actually in the load.
Basement Tear-Outs in Old Houses
Finishing an Old Basement
Paneling from the 1970s, drop ceilings, old carpet glued to concrete, a bar nobody uses. Before a basement gets refinished, all of it comes out — and up a single narrow staircase.
Heavy Pieces
Cast-iron tubs and radiators from 1920s houses are some of the heaviest things we carry. A cast-iron bathtub is $185 and a cast-iron radiator $123.
Storm Debris Cleanup
From May through September, the Twin Cities get hail, straight-line winds, and the occasional tornado. The cleanup that follows is usually a mix of broken branches, ruined patio furniture, and water-damaged basement contents.
Separate What You Can
Branches and yard waste are a different stream from household junk. Keeping them apart makes the pickup faster.
Wet Basement Contents
Soaked carpet, boxes, and furniture should come out quickly before mold starts. Photograph everything for your insurer before we haul it.
Yard Waste Pricing
Yard waste is priced by the cubic yard at $88; larger storm loads price as truck-fill.
Contractors
Roofers and restoration crews can book debris runs by the load. Send photos of the site.

Construction Debris FAQs
How much does construction debris removal cost in Minneapolis?
Most jobs price by truck-fill: $241 for a quarter truck, $431 for half, $732 for a full load. Single heavy pieces have their own prices, like $293 for a full kitchen cabinet set.
Will the city pick up drywall or remodel debris?
No. Minneapolis’s large-item program excludes building materials, and St. Paul’s bulky-item program excludes construction debris, drywall, concrete, bricks, and treated wood.
Is construction debris taxed in Minnesota?
Yes, under the Solid Waste Management tax, but by volume rather than at the 9.75% rate used for household junk. We confirm debris jobs directly so it’s calculated correctly.
Do you take concrete and brick?
Small amounts, yes. Large volumes of concrete or a full roof tear-off are often better handled by a roll-off container — send photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
