Unless there is a contract that stipulates details of the safe disposal of building rubble, the contractors will dump it where it is the cheapest and easiest way to do it.

The building rubble from the 911 Trade Centre destruction took 9 months to clean up.

On a much smaller scale, we had a bathroom reno.
Guy declared the job finished until I pointed out the pile of rubble outside the front door.
He didn't look happy, but he cleaned it up.
