Renovating your home? Drywall, lumber, concrete, and roofing materials have different disposal rules than regular trash. Here's what to know.

Advanced Disposal in Theodore is the local disposal site most neighbors use when they need to drop off household or yard debris. It’s the kind of place people bring pickups, trailers, or contractor loads rather than small household bag trash.
The site sits off Rangeline Road with a noticeable entrance booth and a drive-in route where vehicles pull up to be directed. Expect to encounter a scale on the way in or out, since these types of disposal sites usually weigh loads. Large open tipping areas and compactors are visible from the drive lane, and heavy equipment moves around, so keep a clear view when backing up. Weekends, spring cleanups and any post-storm periods tend to be the busiest times, so lines can form.
Facility Information
Before You Go
- Make sure loads are secured and tarped-loose debris can spill when driving and can slow unloading.
- Bring help for unloading bulky items or plan for a truck with a good tailgate; there’s often no place to set things down besides the tipping area.
- Avoid peak times if possible: weekday mornings tend to move faster than weekend mid-days, and after storms expect longer wait times.
