City collection Old furniture is named in the city's accepted bulk item list and rides with the weekly pile. The city publishes no separate furniture charge. Confirm the item and the pile with 121 Disposal at 256-251-3949.
City collection The city's bulk item guidelines name mattresses and bed springs as accepted items inside the weekly pile limit. The city publishes no separate mattress charge, and the monthly garbage bill change is an account charge rather than a pickup price. Confirm the item and the pile with 121 Disposal.
City collection Appliances are not named in the city bulk list. Calhoun County gives them free disposal on its published Free Days and charges them as municipal solid waste on other days. Free Days give free appliance disposal on the published dates, while the county charges municipal solid waste by weight on ordinary days at its published per-ton rate. Confirm the date and the current rate before you load.

The local disposal guide
Will the city take it?
Residential waste in Anniston runs through two systems. The city's provider, 121 Disposal Company, handles garbage plus the curbside bulk pile, which is one pile a week of up to 6 feet by 6 feet by 4 feet and does name furniture, mattresses and bed springs. Calhoun County runs the landfill and transfer station on Morrisville Road for construction material, electronics and the recycling areas.
The city's bulk item guidelines name mattresses and bed springs as accepted items inside the weekly pile limit.
City cost & eligibility
The city publishes no separate mattress charge, and the monthly garbage bill change is an account charge rather than a pickup price. Confirm the item and the pile with 121 Disposal.
When & how
Put the mattress out on the household's scheduled pickup day, because bulk items are collected at a different time of day from the garbage cart but on that same day.
Get it ready
Keep the mattress inside one pile per week of no more than 6 feet by 6 feet by 4 feet, keep the pile at the front of the property near the curb, and keep it clear of mailboxes, poles, fences and vehicles.
Old furniture is named in the city's accepted bulk item list and rides with the weekly pile.
City cost & eligibility
The city publishes no separate furniture charge. Confirm the item and the pile with 121 Disposal at 256-251-3949.
When & how
Set the furniture out on the scheduled pickup day for the bulk run, which arrives at a different time of day from the garbage cart.
Get it ready
Keep to one pile a week inside the size limit, leave the alley clear because alleyway piles are not collected, and keep nothing over 6 feet long or 500 pounds in the pile.
Appliances are not named in the city bulk list. Calhoun County gives them free disposal on its published Free Days and charges them as municipal solid waste on other days.
City cost & eligibility
Free Days give free appliance disposal on the published dates, while the county charges municipal solid waste by weight on ordinary days at its published per-ton rate. Confirm the date and the current rate before you load.
When & how
Ask 121 Disposal first whether the appliance belongs in the city bulk pile, or hold it for a county Free Day on one of the published Saturdays.
Get it ready
Empty and drain the unit, remove the doors so nothing can be trapped inside, and separate the appliance from household garbage, which is charged even on a Free Day.
The county transfer station takes electronics such as televisions and computers, while the city's own recycling trailers now take cardboard only.
City cost & eligibility
The county fee schedule publishes no separate electronics rate, so confirm whether the load is charged by weight at the scale house before you travel.
When & how
Take the device to the Calhoun County Landfill transfer station on Morrisville Road, open Monday through Friday 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Saturday 7 a.m. to 11:30 a.m., closed Sundays and major holidays.
Get it ready
Keep electronics out of the city's cardboard trailers and out of the household garbage, wipe personal data before handover, and keep the screen whole on the way to the scale house.
Concrete, dirt, roofing shingles, rocks and sawdust are excluded from the city bulk pile, and Calhoun County operates a dedicated construction and demolition landfill with a published per-ton rate.
City cost & eligibility
The county fee sheet prints 30 dollars per ton for construction and demolition loads and an increase to 40 dollars per ton from October 1, and it prints no year beside that increase, so confirm the current gate rate at the Calhoun County Landfill, 3625 Morrisville Road, before hauling. Payment is by cash or check with proper identification.
When & how
Take the load to the construction and demolition landfill one mile past the scale house during gate hours, or hold shingles and remodeling material for a county Free Day.
Get it ready
Separate concrete, dirt, rocks and shingles from household items so the city pile is not refused, and keep the load under the scale-house inspection requirements.
Exercise equipment is not named in the city's bulk list or in the county acceptance rules, so the provider has to confirm the machine first.
City cost & eligibility
No published rate covers an exercise machine. Confirm whether it goes in the city pile or to the county landfill as municipal solid waste.
When & how
Call 121 Disposal at 256-251-3949 with the machine type and weight before a pickup day, or ask the county landfill about a self-haul load.
Get it ready
Fold or tie down the deck and handles, remove any console, screen or battery pack so it can be handled separately, and keep the machine inside the pile size limit if the city accepts it.
Each Anniston residence may put out one bulk pile a week of up to 6 feet by 6 feet by 4 feet, which the city measures at about 5 cubic yards.
City cost & eligibility
Bulk collection is funded through the monthly residential garbage account rather than a separate pickup price, and the city publishes no per-pile charge. Confirm the pile with 121 Disposal.
When & how
Put the pile out on the scheduled pickup day. Bulk items are collected later in the day than the garbage cart, but on the same day.
Get it ready
Accepted material includes tree limbs under 6 feet, old furniture, mattresses and bed springs, small debris and non-disposable solid waste, cloth, paper and cardboard, tin cans, glass and similar household items. Nothing over 500 pounds, over 6 feet or larger than the size limit, and no household garbage, animal waste, concrete, dirt, shingles, rocks, sawdust, tires, stumps or hazardous material.
Items go at the front of the property near the curb, stacked neatly and clear of mailboxes, utility poles, fences and vehicles. Debris in alleyways will not be collected, and residents have to move it to the front pickup location.
Leaves, grass clippings and small plant material must be bagged for collection, because loose piles are not collected. Keep the bags in the same front pile, separated from the household items so the crew can load the run safely.
Use a permitted, accessible outdoor spot. Arrange the move out of your home, keep shared access clear and follow your confirmation’s readiness instructions. Check with your building about access or staging limits before booking.
