Guess the weight of the stacked pile of wood. Then guess the weight of the over loaded bags of plaster and broken pieces of concrete and debris in the bags. 
The above remodeling debris weighed a total of 5,500 pounds. The lumber 1,700 pounds. The bags filled with plaster and concrete shower pans weighed 3,800 pounds. Many contractors do not take away your debris. We do! 32 heavy duty 3 mil. thick contractor clean up bags only costs $ 18.00. Ask your contractor to use bags and load them to about 50 pounds max. Large pieces of drywall and lumber can be loose. If the remodeling debris is outside please cover the pile with a painters plastic drop cloth. Rain-water soaked items weigh more and will cost more to dispose of.
