Construction Debris Removal in Chestermere

If you're doing a reno or a build in Chestermere, you know the drill — the dumpster fills up twice as fast as you planned, the pile in the driveway keeps growing, and the city's pick-up rules don't cover construction waste. That's where we come in.

TJ's Junk Removal is a local Alberta crew that hauls construction debris out of Chestermere homes and job sites every week. We load it, haul it, and dispose of it properly at a licensed facility. You don't lift a finger past pointing at what needs to go.

What counts as construction debris

Around Chestermere, the jobs we see most are:

• Basement and garage renos — drywall, studs, old insulation, and subfloor from homes in Lakeview, Rainbow Falls, and Westmere.
• Deck and fence tear-outs — pressure-treated lumber, concrete footings, and hardware from older homes near the lake.
• Kitchen and bath remodels — old cabinets, countertops, tile, and plumbing fixtures.
• New builds and additions — pallets, packaging, cut-offs, and scrap from contractors finishing up in newer developments like Dawson's Landing and Chelsea.
• Concrete and asphalt — driveway tear-outs, patio slabs, and sidewalk chunks. These get weighed and charged differently because of the disposal fees, so I'll always give you the number before we load.

How it works in Chestermere specifically

Chestermere is a tight grid of cul-de-sacs and lake-access streets, and that changes the job. If you're off Rainbow Road or in the older part of town near the lake, the streets are narrow and the driveways are short. We bring a truck that fits, and we'll always confirm access before we show up — no surprises with a neighbour's boat trailer blocking the lane.

A few things that come up again and again here:

• No dumpster, no problem. Chestermere's residential waste rules don't take construction material in the regular bins, and most homeowners here don't want to rent a dumpster that sits in the driveway for a week. We come, load, and leave the same day.
• HOA and bylaw considerations. Some Chestermere neighbourhoods have rules about how long debris can sit visible on a property. We get it gone the same day, so you're never in a spot with the bylaw office.
• Lake-adjacent work. If your reno is near the lake or a canal lot, we're careful about keeping debris off the shoreline and out of the water. That's not just courtesy — it's how it should be done here.

What it costs and what affects the price

I can't give you a flat rate because every load is different, but here's what drives the number:

• Volume — how much space it takes up in the truck. This is the big one.
• Weight — concrete, tile, and brick are heavy and cost more to dispose of at the transfer station.
• How far we carry it — if the debris is in a basement at the back of a house off of West Creek Drive, that's more labour than a driveway pile in Rainbow Falls.
• Access — whether we can back the truck up close or have to hand-carry everything.

I'll give you a straight estimate over the phone based on what you describe, and the price doesn't change once we agree on it. No hidden fees, no surprise "disposal charge" at the end.

Where it goes

We haul everything to a licensed transfer station serving the Chestermere area. Drywall, lumber, and mixed construction waste get sorted and disposed of properly. We don't dump on back roads, and we don't mix in anything that shouldn't be there. If you have hazardous material — paint, solvents, asbestos — that's a separate process, and I'll tell you honestly if it's something we can't take.
