Renovation Debris Removal in East Nashville
East of the Cumberland, a kitchen gut in an Edgefield Victorian means plaster and lath by the bag, a clawfoot tub nobody wants to carry, and a porch with steep steps between all of it and the street. That’s the carry we’re set up for. A cast-iron tub is $185; a quarter truck of mixed debris $241.
Rebuilt Twice Over
The Great Fire of 1916 destroyed more than 500 houses in East Nashville and left 2,500 people homeless, which is why surviving Victorians in Edgefield sit beside the bungalows built afterward.
Then, on March 3, 2020, an EF3 tornado did major damage here, killing two people at Five Points. Much of the rebuilding since has turned into steady renovation work — and steady debris. Shelby Bottoms Greenway’s 810 acres and the Tomato Art Fest are what the neighborhood is known for; the dumpster bags are what it lives with.

Porches and Steep Steps
Front steps and narrow side yards are common here. Heavy pieces go out on dollies with the treads and railings protected.
Vintage Worth Saving
Old doors, mantels and hardware in usable shape can be set aside for reuse instead of the landfill — just point them out.
East Nashville Renovation FAQs
Do you take plaster and lath that the Sheriff’s crew refuses?
Yes. Bagged plaster and drywall are both fine with us, priced by the bag, the sheet or the truck-fill.
Can you get an old cast-iron tub down a narrow stair?
Yes, with extra hands and the right dolly. A cast-iron tub is $185; disconnecting the plumbing is your contractor’s part.
Can you haul from a Five Points or Lockeland Springs job site mid-project?
Yes. Schedule a pickup between trades and each load is priced from a photo.
Do you also handle move-outs from East Nashville rentals?
Yes. Furniture and household contents are priced the same way, by item or by truck-fill.
