Bulk Trash Collection

The Department of Public Works (DPW) collects large, bulky items by appointment from residential households that receive DPW trash collection services. These households include single-family homes and residential buildings with three or fewer living units. Apartment buildings with four or more units, condominiums, co-ops, and other commercial properties must have their bulk items removed by a private, licensed hauler. Remember, NO MORE THAN SEVEN ITEMS will be collected per appointment.

Submit a Service Request for Residential Bulk Trash Collection.

**Note: Renovation materials, such as bricks, concrete, ceiling tiles, construction and demolition materials, and dirt are not accepted for bulk collections from residences. Please visit the MWCOG Builders Recycling Guide for a list of construction and demolition companies that may haul these items.**
