Based in Murphy, Sanders Contracting handles debris removal across the tri-state area where North Carolina meets Georgia and Tennessee. We haul off demolition debris, construction debris and storm debris, along with brush piles and stumps. Our excavators load the pile, and our dump truck carries it away. The site is left cleaned up and ready for what comes next.
Debris removal is part of every tear-down we do as a demolition company in Murphy. It is also a job on its own, like a pile left from a build or a fallen shed. Call or text (828) 342-1467, and we look at the job and put the quote in writing.

Demolition debris removal begins once the walls are down. A tear-down leaves framing lumber, roofing, siding and block in one heavy pile. The large excavator loads it into the dump truck, and the truck hauls it off. On a house demolition job, hauling the debris is part of the work.
Construction debris hauling works the same way. A build or a remodel leaves scrap lumber, broken block, roofing and drywall behind. We load what is left and haul it off, so the next trade starts on a clean site.
Old slabs and footings take one more step, because the concrete has to be broken out first. That work is concrete removal, and the broken pieces ride out in the same dump truck.
A mountain storm can drop trees across a drive or onto a shed. A downed tree is still a pile of trunks and limbs after the saw work. Our excavators lift heavy trunks and wreckage too big to move by hand. The dump truck hauls the storm debris off.
A tree still standing or leaning over the house is a tree removal job first. Once it is down, the wood is debris, and we haul it off. Wreckage from a crushed carport or shed hauls off too.
Cherokee County's solid waste rules treat wood and brush apart from building debris. Stumps do not count as yard waste there, and stumps, brush and limbs stay out of the landfill cell. Brush and stump piles from a land clearing job follow the same rules.
North Carolina law sorts debris by where it came from. Construction or demolition debris comes from construction, remodeling, repair or demolition work on pavement, buildings and other structures. Land-clearing debris comes from clearing land. That difference decides where each load can go.
Cherokee County keeps business waste out of its convenience centers and sends it to the county landfill in Marble. At the scale, a contractor gives the address of the property the load came from. The ordinance calls for every load to be covered or tied down on the road.
Cherokee County's landfill takes waste generated in the county, unless its solid waste director approves an outside load. A job in another county follows that county's rules. So where the job sits decides where its debris can go.
