How bulk trash pickup usually works

This is a general description. Rules differ by city and county, so check the official source below for yours.

Who runs it. Usually the city sanitation department, the county solid waste department, or the private hauler your city contracts with. Unincorporated areas often follow county rules.
How you get it. Some places pick up on a set schedule (for example, monthly or on a set week). Others need you to call, use 311, or book online. Some include a few free pickups a year and charge for more.
What’s usually accepted. Furniture, mattresses, carpet, and sometimes appliances. Programs often limit the pile size or number of items.
What’s usually excluded. Hazardous waste, tires, construction debris from contractors, and loose small trash. Appliances with refrigerant often need a separate appointment.
Setting it out. Usually at the curb the night before, not blocking sidewalks, mailboxes, or meters.

If pickup doesn’t fit your timeline, you can haul it to a dump or transfer station yourself, or hire junk removal.

Junk removal crews load and dispose of it for you, usually priced by how much of the truck you fill.

Tip: get two or three quotes from local junk removal companies, and ask whether the price includes the dump fee and labor.

Bigger project? Estimate the dumpster size you need.
