Most debris from a remodel, roof job, or cleanout can go in your container. The limits come from Kansas law, City rules, and the landfill that takes the load.
Kansas law separates construction debris from other waste. Under the state's definition, a construction load can't include friable asbestos, garbage, tires, drums, or appliances that still hold refrigerant. The same goes for electrical equipment that contains hazardous materials. Those items need their own disposal path.
Colwich's code also bars hazardous items from trash containers. That includes chemicals, poisons, explosives, and rags soaked in flammable liquids. Keep paint, solvents, fuel, liquids, and asbestos out of your dumpster too.
Sedgwick County runs a household hazardous waste drop-off in Wichita for county residents, which is the right place for leftover paint and chemicals.
Brooks Landfill also charges extra for items that don't belong. Household trash mixed into a construction load costs $150 per ton, with a $100 minimum, on the landfill's fee page. Barrels aren't allowed at all.
If you're not sure about an item, ask your account manager before you load it.
