Request a Large Item Pickup (Waste & Recycling)

Request collection of large household items that cannot fit in regular waste collection bins.

Large item pickup may be available for household items that are too large to fit inside regular waste bins or bags. This type of request is typically used for bulky items such as furniture, mattresses, appliances, or other oversized household materials where collection is offered.

Residents can submit a request for large item pickup when they need to dispose of eligible oversized items. When submitting a request, the service address should be entered as an exact, validated address so the request can be matched to the correct collection area. Pin drops or approximate map locations should not be used for this type of request.

When requesting pickup, it is helpful to identify the item type, the number of items, the approximate item size, and the specific location where the items will be placed. Clear location details help collection staff find the items and confirm whether they can be safely accessed.

Large item pickup requests may include the following:

  • Furniture such as sofas, chairs, tables, or dressers

  • Mattresses or box springs

  • Appliances or other large household items

  • Multiple large items from the same property

  • Items placed at the regular collection point or another accessible location

Requests are reviewed based on the service address, item type, number of items, item size, and placement details. Some items may require special handling or may not be eligible for regular large item pickup depending on material type, size, condition, or local disposal requirements.

When a large item pickup request is submitted, the following may occur:

  • The address is validated to confirm the correct service area

  • The item type and number of items are reviewed

  • The approximate size and placement location are assessed

  • The request is routed based on the collection area or service provider

  • Pickup may be scheduled or reviewed for eligibility based on the request details

There are a few additional things to keep in mind:

  • Items should be placed only in the approved location and should not block sidewalks, roads, lanes, driveways, or collection carts

  • Items may need to be separated from regular garbage, recycling, or organics bins

  • Hazardous materials, construction debris, loose waste, or items requiring special disposal may not be accepted through this request

  • Large or heavy items may require additional review before collection can be completed

Residents are encouraged to provide accurate details about the type, number, size, and location of the items so the request can be reviewed efficiently and collection staff can complete the pickup where eligible.
