Dumpsters for Wellington remodels and roof tear-offs: drywall, cabinets, tile and concrete roof tile, sized by weight as much as volume and hauled to the sites that can take it.

Six boxes, about thirty seconds. You pick when to be called back, and that is when the phone rings.
Or call (728) 226-7144Remodel and roofing debris is the opposite of a cleanout. It is compact and heavy. A gutted kitchen is drywall, plaster, cabinets, countertops and tile, and a roof is shingles or concrete tile plus underlayment and any rotten sheathing. Those materials reach a container's weight allowance long before they reach the top rail, and every ton past the allowance is charged, because in Palm Beach County the debris is weighed.
The Solid Waste Authority's tipping fee schedule effective October 1, 2026 lists construction debris and large vegetation at $95 a ton and says open-top roll-off containers are generally charged at that rate. Household garbage is $42 a ton, but a remodel load is not household garbage, and a mixed load is charged at the higher category. That is why the included weight on a remodel container matters more than the size, and why tossing kitchen trash or a sofa into a construction can does not save anything.
Many Wellington homes carry concrete tile roofs, and concrete tile weighs several times what asphalt shingles do per square. A tile tear-off uses up a container's weight allowance quickly, so the right choice is often a smaller container with a higher allowance, or two planned hauls, rather than one big container overloaded. An overloaded roll-off can be refused by the driver, because the truck has legal weight limits of its own. Shingle roofs are lighter and fit more squares per can. Either way, give the roof type, the square count and whether any decking is coming off.
Not every county facility takes remodel debris. The authority's transfer stations, including the one on Weisman Way in Royal Palm Beach that sits closest to Wellington, cannot accept concrete, block, brick, tile, roofing material, construction lumber, trusses or fencing. Those loads go to the North County landfill complex on Jog Road or to an SWA-permitted private recycling facility. The authority says those recyclers recover roughly 35 to 40 percent of the county's construction and demolition debris, with metals recycled, concrete crushed for road base and combustibles used for energy. The trip to those sites is part of what the price covers.
The village's construction debris page tells residents to check with Wellington's Building Department about permits for their project, and roof replacements and most structural remodels in Florida need one. The container itself usually sits on private property, but the association may still want notice, approval or a time limit, especially for a roofing job that runs past a week. A permit card in the window and a container on boards on the driveway is what a code officer expects to see.
Put the heaviest material in first and spread it across the floor of the container rather than piling it at one end, because an unbalanced load is hard to winch onto the truck. Break cabinets down flat. Keep the load below the top rail; debris sticking out of the can will not be hauled until it is cut down. Keep paint cans, adhesives, solvents and fluorescent tubes out of it. If a wall or a floor turns out to hold old material that may contain asbestos, stop work: the county treats asbestos as a special waste that needs its own manifest and rate, and it does not belong in a roll-off.
A kitchen or bathroom remodel produces most of its debris in the first two or three days of demolition, then very little while plumbing, electrical and cabinets go in. A container booked for the demolition window and hauled when demo is done is usually cheaper than one that sits for the whole project. If the finish phase will produce another round of packaging and offcuts, a small second container at the end often costs less than extra days on the first.
The container size, the rental days, the included tons and the per-ton rate over the allowance make up the whole price. On a remodel, the per-ton rate is the line to ask about first. The pricing page sets out published ranges from companies serving Palm Beach County beside the county's own rate, so a quote can be checked before the container lands.
Remodeling and Roof Tear-Off Dumpsters in Wellington. Call (728) 226-7144 and a driver is dispatched with the right truck. You get the price before the hook goes on.
Call (728) 226-7144Wellington's construction and demolition debris page limits curbside collection of that debris to 2 cubic yards a week, requires loose drywall and floor tile to be containerized in units weighing under 50 pounds, and does not collect concrete, rock, fencing or shipping pallets. Residents with a construction or demolition project, or who expect a large amount of refuse, are told to rent a roll-off container from a hauler permitted in Wellington. The village's bulk collection page separately allows up to 4 cubic yards of minor home-repair debris and excess garbage on bulk day.
Why it matters: A remodel, a roof or an estate cleanout outgrows the curb in a day. Whether the hauler is permitted to work inside the village is the first thing to confirm, before size or price, because a container from anyone else invites a call from code compliance or the HOA.

The Solid Waste Authority of Palm Beach County tipping fee schedule effective October 1, 2026 charges $95 per ton for construction debris and large vegetation, $42 for garbage and trash, $35 for yard vegetation and $35 for livestock waste, and states that dump trucks and open-top roll-off containers are generally charged the construction debris rate. Mixed loads are charged the higher category. The transfer stations, including Royal Palm Beach at 9743 Weisman Way, cannot accept concrete, block, tile, roofing material, construction lumber, fencing or dirt.
Why it matters: Every overage on a Wellington dumpster bill traces back to that scale. Heavy remodel debris and mixed loads cost the most, and a load of tile or roofing has to ride to the North County landfill complex on Jog Road rather than the nearest transfer station.
Wellington Land Development Code Section 30-153 sets minimum standards for storing and hauling livestock waste. Each livestock facility needs an approved storage area, and roll-off or dumpster containers holding manure must sit on a concrete or asphalt pad with a lip around it, at least 5 feet from any roof overhang, 50 feet from a public drainage conveyance or inlet, 100 feet from any water body and 150 feet from a potable well. Rules adopted by the Village Council in 2013 also require manure haulers to register with the village and keep records that Wellington staff can audit.
Why it matters: A barn cleanout is two jobs. Fencing, mats and shed debris belong in a roll-off; manure and soiled bedding belong in a compliant bin and with a registered hauler, delivered to the one county facility that takes livestock waste.

After Hurricane Irma, Wellington crews and contractors gathered and hauled away 168,602 cubic yards of vegetative debris between September 18 and October 17, 2017, and FEMA later agreed to reimburse the village $1,892,200 for collection, reduction and disposal. About half the village lives in gated communities, FEMA requires each association's approval before debris crews can enter, and delays in those approvals slowed the Irma cleanup.
Why it matters: Public storm cleanup clears roads first and reaches gated streets later, in several passes over weeks. A roll-off set in the yard takes the wet drywall, carpet and broken screen enclosures that a curb pile was never meant to hold.
