Pricing
How pricing works.
What drywall removal costs here. We price by the tier your items fill, starting at $95–$150 for a 1/8 truck; a single item is quoted from a photo so we can confirm the tier before anything is loaded. The number you agree to is the number you pay, and it includes carry-out, the disposal fee and cleanup.
Drywall prices on the usual four: how much room the debris takes on the truck, the labor to get it out, the access, and disposal cost. Volume and labor lead here, with weight showing up on bigger loads.
The two things that move the number most are stairs and distance. A garage stack ten feet from where the truck parks is the cheap version. Second-floor tear-out debris carried down and around to a street-parked truck is the expensive one, and it has nothing to do with the drywall itself.
Water-damaged material is quoted after we have talked about it, because the handling requirement is different. Send photos or tell us what happened, and we will give you one number, confirmed before we load.
The short version
Drywall Removal at a glance.
- What it is
- Removal of drywall and sheetrock debris — demo sheets, offcuts, and renovation waste — carried out without spreading joint-compound dust through the house.
- What’s included
- Torn-out sheetrock and ceiling drywall
- Leftover full and partial sheets
- Offcuts, scrap, and end pieces
- Green board from bath and kitchen tear-outs
- Studs, trim, and insulation from the same tear-out
- How pricing works
- Priced on volume, the labor to carry it out, the access, and disposal — with stairs and carry distance moving the number more than the drywall itself does. Water-damaged material is quoted after a conversation, because containment changes the handling.
Part of our Construction Debris Removal service
Drywall is the material people most consistently underestimate, and they underestimate it the same way every time: by the sheet. One sheet is manageable. A room's worth is a different animal, because a half-inch sheet is roughly fifty pounds and a renovation produces them in stacks, in pieces, with screws and paper and joint compound dust that gets into everything it touches.
That dust is really the defining feature of the job. Drywall debris is not heavy the way concrete is heavy; it is awkward, crumbly, and messy in a way that matters if the tear-out happened inside a house somebody is still living in. We bring what we need to carry it out without redecorating the hallway on the way — and that care is most of why people call rather than doing it themselves.
On the coast there is a second version of this job that is not a renovation at all. Water gets in — a storm, a roof leak, a supply line — and drywall is the first thing that has to go, usually in a hurry and usually in worse condition than a clean demo. Wet drywall is heavier, it comes apart in the hands, and if it has been sitting there is often mold behind it.
If yours is flood-related, there is a rule of thumb worth knowing before anybody starts cutting, because it decides how big this job actually is. Gypsum wicks water upward, so the standard practice is to cut at least two feet above the high-water line rather than at it. Water that came up eighteen inches on the wall means drywall coming out to about forty-two inches, around the full perimeter of every room the water reached. Multiply that by the number of rooms, add the insulation behind it, the baseboards and the flooring, and a flood that looked like it only touched the bottom of the walls turns into a serious debris job. We have done a lot of these, and the number that surprises people is never the water line — it is the arithmetic above it.
We will take that work, but call us first rather than booking it blind. Wet or moldy drywall changes how the material has to be handled and bagged, and it changes what we bring. It is not a refusal — it is a conversation we would rather have on the phone than in your hallway.

How we work
Drywall Out Before the Painters Arrive in Brunswick
Most drywall calls are hauling material somebody else already took down: the contractor tore it out, stacked it in the garage or the middle of the room, and moved on to the next trade. That is a load-and-go job, and the variables are carry distance and how many stairs sit between the pile and the truck.
Weight adds up faster than customers expect. A stack that looks like a corner of a room can be several hundred pounds, so we plan the load rather than eyeballing it.
Dust control is the part we actually think about. Broken sheetrock sheds joint compound the whole way out of the house. On an occupied home we carry it out in manageable pieces on a planned route rather than dragging full sheets across finished floors.
Wet and moldy drywall runs differently. It is heavier, it falls apart when handled, and it needs to be contained rather than carried out loose. Tell us on the call that water was involved and we will come set up for it.
If the drywall is still on the wall, that is tear-out — a demolition scope rather than a haul. We do that work too, but it gets looked at and quoted as its own thing.
Drywall comes out of homes and businesses alike here. A storefront getting new walls along the Glynn Avenue corridor, or a rental off New Jesup Highway being redone between tenants, can leave a stack in a back room that has to be gone before the painters or the flooring crew show up. Commercial spaces bring their own timing — early, late, or around a business that’s still open — and we plan the carry so customers aren’t walking through dust. If water got into the sheetrock, say so with your photos and we’ll come set up to bag it. Tell us where the pile is and how many steps sit between it and the door, and we’ll quote it for homes and businesses across Brunswick.
Hazardous materials — chemicals, solvents, fuel, asbestos-suspect material and the like — need their own route, and we’ll tell you where they go.
