A roll-off handles most of what a cleanup or remodel produces — but not everything. Here's a simple breakdown for Springfield rentals.

Generally allowed

  • Household junk, furniture and non-refrigerant appliances
  • Construction and demolition debris — wood, drywall, siding
  • Flooring, carpet and cabinetry
  • Yard waste, brush and branches
  • Roofing shingles (watch the weight)
  • Concrete, brick and dirt (in a dedicated, weight-appropriate box)

Generally not allowed

  • Hazardous waste, chemicals and solvents
  • Wet paint, oil, fuel and other liquids
  • Tires and batteries
  • Refrigerators, AC units and other refrigerant appliances
  • Certain electronics and TVs
  • Asbestos and medical waste
Rules can vary by material and facility. When in doubt, ask us before you toss it in — it saves you a potential extra fee and keeps disposal above board.

Where prohibited items go

Hazardous and special-handling items belong at a proper drop-off or recycling facility. If you've got something on the "no" list, give us a call and we'll point you to the right place in Greene County.
