City collection Furniture is one of the city's named bulk waste categories, and a sofa or lounge chair is set out as its own pile rather than with the yard debris. The monthly sanitation fee includes one bulk item collection, and the city's fee table lists a single item of furniture as the first item free. No charge. One bulk item collection is included in the monthly residential sanitation fee, and the published bulk waste fee table lists a single item of furniture, such as a sofa or lounge chair, as the first item free. Anything beyond that first item is a scheduled special collection charged from the current rate of disposal and prorated when the load is smaller than a truckload.
City collection Mattresses are named in the city's bulk waste definition and the fee table uses a mattress or bedspring as its example of the single furniture item that comes free with the monthly service. The unit is scheduled with the Sanitation Department instead of going into the garbage cart. No charge. One bulk item collection is included in the monthly residential sanitation fee, and the bulk waste fee table lists a single item of furniture, with a mattress or bedspring as the published example, as the first item free. A second unit or a larger load becomes a scheduled special collection charged from the current rate of disposal and prorated when the load is smaller than a truckload.
City collection The ordinance puts large appliances in the same bulk waste category as mattresses, furniture and bicycles, while the city's trash page says a curbside pickup for items such as appliances has to be scheduled and paid for in advance, at a rate set from the current cost of disposal.

The ordinance sets any bulk waste charge from the current rate of disposal, prorated for a load smaller than a truckload, and the Sanitation Director sets that rate annually, so confirm the unit and the amount with the Sanitation Department at (334) 595-0624 before the pickup is booked.

The local disposal guide
Will the city take it?
Prattville runs its own Sanitation Department inside the city limits. Household garbage leaves the curb once a week in the city's 95 gallon blue cart, yard debris leaves the same week on the neighborhood's designated day, and a bulk waste route handles furniture, mattresses, large appliances and bicycles. The ordinance is strict about how the two piles are prepared: yard debris goes into tightly sealed bags or cardboard boxes under 50 pounds, limbs are cut shorter than four feet, and bulk waste sits in its own pile beside the yard debris. One bulk item collection is included in the monthly sanitation fee, and anything bigger or more unusual has to be scheduled with the department as a special collection. Renovation debris, dirt, stumps and trees are not collected at all, and a television or computer has no published city route at all, so those loads end at the private landfill on County Road 4 after a phone call.
Furniture is one of the city's named bulk waste categories, and a sofa or lounge chair is set out as its own pile rather than with the yard debris. The monthly sanitation fee includes one bulk item collection, and the city's fee table lists a single item of furniture as the first item free.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. One bulk item collection is included in the monthly residential sanitation fee, and the published bulk waste fee table lists a single item of furniture, such as a sofa or lounge chair, as the first item free. Anything beyond that first item is a scheduled special collection charged from the current rate of disposal and prorated when the load is smaller than a truckload.
When & how
Yard trash and bulk waste are collected once a week on the neighborhood's designated day. Call the Sanitation Department at (334) 595-0624 to arrange the bulk collection, then have the piece at the curb by 7:00 a.m.
Get it ready
Keep the furniture in its own pile behind the curb or street, separate from the yard debris, and clear of the gutter, sidewalk and street. Leave about 4 feet around the pile for the truck, and keep the piece out of the blue garbage cart, which is for bagged household garbage only.
Mattresses are named in the city's bulk waste definition and the fee table uses a mattress or bedspring as its example of the single furniture item that comes free with the monthly service. The unit is scheduled with the Sanitation Department instead of going into the garbage cart.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. One bulk item collection is included in the monthly residential sanitation fee, and the bulk waste fee table lists a single item of furniture, with a mattress or bedspring as the published example, as the first item free. A second unit or a larger load becomes a scheduled special collection charged from the current rate of disposal and prorated when the load is smaller than a truckload.
When & how
Call the Sanitation Department at (334) 595-0624 to arrange the bulk collection, then put the unit at the curb by 7:00 a.m. on the collection day. No special pickups are scheduled during the week of a holiday.
Get it ready
Keep the mattress dry and in the bulk pile rather than in the yard debris pile, and keep it out of the blue garbage cart, which is reserved for bagged household garbage. A box spring counts as its own unit, so tell the department how many pieces you have when you call.
The ordinance puts large appliances in the same bulk waste category as mattresses, furniture and bicycles, while the city's trash page says a curbside pickup for items such as appliances has to be scheduled and paid for in advance, at a rate set from the current cost of disposal.
City cost & eligibility
The city publishes no flat appliance rate. The ordinance sets any bulk waste charge from the current rate of disposal, prorated for a load smaller than a truckload, and the Sanitation Director sets that rate annually, so confirm the unit and the amount with the Sanitation Department at (334) 595-0624 before the pickup is booked.
When & how
Call the Sanitation Department at (334) 595-0624 to schedule the special collection and pay the fee in advance, then put the unit out by 7:00 a.m. on the scheduled day. No special pickups are scheduled during the week of a holiday.
Get it ready
Empty the unit before it leaves the house, remove the doors from a refrigerator or freezer, and keep the appliance out of the blue garbage cart and away from the yard debris pile. The department takes the request by phone and no collection crew enters a residence, so the unit has to be at the curb.
The city publishes no television, monitor or computer route. The bulk waste definition names large appliances, mattresses, furniture, bicycles and do-it-yourself construction debris, the Recycling Center list does not include electronics, and the landfill on County Road 4 takes non-garbage items from residents for a possible charge even though a private company runs it.
City cost & eligibility
No city rate covers a television, monitor or computer. The landfill is operated by a private waste company and may charge for a non-garbage drop, so confirm both acceptance and the amount with the Sanitation Department at (334) 595-0624 or with the landfill at (334) 365-4635 before loading a vehicle.
When & how
Call before a trip, because the city route does not cover electronics. The landfill at 802 County Road 4 is open Monday through Friday from 7:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and is closed on Saturday and Sunday.
Get it ready
Wipe personal data from a computer, phone or drive before handing it over, keep screens and towers out of the blue garbage cart, and keep them out of the recycling bins, which are modified to take only cardboard and paper. Ask whether the set can be handled as a non-garbage drop before it leaves the house.
The city's trash program covers yard debris and bulk waste, and the definition of bulk waste covers large appliances, mattresses, furniture, bicycles, do-it-yourself construction debris and other bulky items. Yard debris and bulk waste have to be placed in two separate piles.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. One bulk item collection is included in the monthly residential sanitation fee, and the published fee table lists the first single item of furniture at no charge. Any bulk waste beyond that first item becomes a special collection that the resident schedules with the Sanitation Department, with the charge set from the current rate of disposal and prorated when the load is smaller than a truckload.
When & how
Bulk waste is collected on the same weekly service day as the yard trash, but the pickup has to be arranged first by calling the Sanitation Department at (334) 595-0624. No special pickups are available during the week of a holiday.
Get it ready
Set the junk out in its own pile behind the curb or street, separate from the yard debris, and keep it out of the gutter, the sidewalk and the street. Leave about 4 feet of clearance for the truck, keep bags of household garbage in the cart instead of beside it, and leave dirt, stumps, tires, trees and renovation material out of the pile because the city does not collect those.
Exercise equipment is not named in the city's bulk waste definition, which lists large appliances, mattresses, furniture, bicycles and do-it-yourself construction debris before its catch-all for other bulky items, so the machine has to be approved before it is set out.
City cost & eligibility
No published rate names an exercise machine. If the city takes it, the piece is handled as bulk waste or as a special collection charged from the current rate of disposal, so confirm the machine and the amount with the Sanitation Department at (334) 595-0624 before the collection day.
When & how
Call the Sanitation Department during business hours, which run Monday through Friday from 7:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., and put the machine out by 7:00 a.m. only if it is accepted.
Get it ready
Describe the machine and its size when you call, fold or tie down the deck and handles, and take off any console or screen so it can be handled separately. Keep the machine out of the blue garbage cart and out of the yard debris pile.
The ordinance excludes building debris from city collection. Scrap lumber, plaster, roofing, concrete, brickbats and sanding dust left by construction, repair, remodeling, removal or demolition, along with dirt, stumps and tree trunks, will not be collected and have to be moved privately, while small do-it-yourself construction debris still fits the bulk waste definition.
City cost & eligibility
There is no city rate for a building or demolition load, because the ordinance excludes it. The Sanitation Department can quote a special collection from the current commercial rate of disposal when it does take material, and a private hauler or container company sets its own price, so confirm the load at (334) 595-0624 before anything is piled.
When & how
Arrange the private route before the work starts, because the city does not collect this material on any collection day. The landfill on County Road 4 takes non-garbage items from residents, including heavy material, for a charge that has to be confirmed at (334) 365-4635.
Get it ready
Keep building debris, dirt, stumps and tree trunks out of the curb piles, because the city does not collect them and a mixed pile can be left behind. Tell a licensed company doing the work that it is responsible for removing its own residue, since the city charges a commercial fee for a contractor load left at the curb, and keep bags of household garbage in the cart.
Yard debris counts as trash under the ordinance and is collected once a week on the neighborhood's designated day. Leaves, grass clippings and straw go out in tightly sealed bags or cardboard boxes, while limbs are cut shorter than four feet and stacked with all the tops facing the same direction.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Residential yard trash below 5 cubic yards carries no fee. The published fee table prices 5 cubic yards up to a half trailer load at $25.00 and a half to full trailer load at $50.00, and a commercial load is priced per load with a minimum. Anything the department treats as a special collection is charged from the current rate of disposal.
When & how
Yard trash is collected once a week on the day the city's collection map assigns to the neighborhood. Routes missed because of a major holiday are collected the next business day with that day's routes, and yard trash is not collected on the holiday itself.
Get it ready
Containerize leaves, straw and grass clippings in tightly sealed bags or cardboard boxes weighing no more than 50 pounds each and keep them behind the curb or street, never in the street. Cut limbs shorter than four feet and stack them neatly with the tops facing the same way, break down empty boxes, and keep the yard pile separate from bulk waste.
The blue cart holds bagged garbage only and goes out by 7 a.m.
Household garbage goes into the city's 95 gallon blue cart, bagged, and the cart is placed at the curb by 7:00 a.m. on the collection day, about 4 feet clear of any obstruction such as a vehicle, pole, mailbox or tree. Crews will not collect garbage left on the ground beside the cart, the cart comes back to the residence the evening of collection, and containers may only be placed out on the scheduled pickup day.
Yard debris and bulk waste sit in two separate piles
The ordinance requires yard debris and bulk waste to be placed in two separate piles, and both belong behind the curb or street rather than in the gutter, on the sidewalk or in the street. Limbs are cut shorter than four feet and stacked neatly with all the tops facing the same direction, leaves, straw and clippings are bagged or boxed in loads under 50 pounds each, and the bulk pile keeps its own clearance so the truck can reach it.
Any bulk waste, and any yard debris load the city treats as oversized, requires a special collection that the resident schedules by calling the Sanitation Department at (334) 595-0624. The monthly sanitation fee already includes one bulk item collection, and the fee table lists the first single item of furniture as free, while a larger load is charged from the current cost of disposal and prorated when it is smaller than a truckload. The trash page adds that a fee is payable in advance when it applies, and no special pickups are available during the week of a holiday.
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.
City of Prattville Sanitation Department, with the Prattville Landfill operated by a private waste company
Schedule the curbside bulk collection
A household inside the city limits with furniture, a mattress, a large appliance, a bicycle or another bulky piece that is too big for the garbage cart.
Cost & conditions
No charge. One bulk item collection is included in the monthly residential sanitation fee, and the fee table lists a single item of furniture as the first item free. Beyond that first item the pickup is a scheduled special collection charged from the current rate of disposal and prorated for a load smaller than a truckload.
Arrange it
Call the Sanitation Department at (334) 595-0624 to arrange the pickup, then put the item at the curb by 7:00 a.m. in its own pile, separate from the yard debris.
Bulk waste has to be scheduled rather than simply set out, the amount for anything past the included item is set from the current cost of disposal, and no special pickups run during the week of a holiday.

Take the load to the landfill on County Road 4
A household with a heavy, oversized or non-garbage item that the curbside routes will not take, such as renovation material or an old television.
Cost & conditions
The landfill is run by a private waste company and the city says there may be a charge, so confirm the material, the acceptance and the amount at (334) 365-4635 before loading. For the curbside alternative, the Sanitation Department quotes a special collection at (334) 595-0624.
Arrange it
Take the load to 802 County Road 4, next to the Whetstone Sports Complex, during the landfill's published hours, Monday through Friday from 7:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
The landfill is closed on Saturday and Sunday, the operator sets its own acceptance rules and prices, and household garbage dropped there needs proof of garbage service such as a current water bill.

Use the city Recycling Center on Doster Road
A resident with cardboard, paper, metal cans, plastic bottles or glass-free recyclables, or a city sanitation customer with extra yard debris or household garbage for the Saturday window.
Cost & conditions
No charge. The Recycling Center publishes no drop-off fee for residents. Anyone may bring cardboard, paper or metal, and City of Prattville sanitation customers who show their sanitation bill may also bring yard debris, household garbage and the other listed recyclables.
Arrange it
Take the material to 622 Doster Road at the Public Works facility. The center's published window is Monday through Friday from 7:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. and the first Saturday of the month from 7:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
Glass, electrical wire, tires and hazardous waste are refused, the bins around the city take only cardboard and paper, household garbage is listed as a Saturday-only item, and other city pages print a different weekday window and a different street number, so confirm at (334) 595-0624.
A household or contractor with building debris, dirt, stumps or tree trunks that the ordinance keeps out of the city collection.
Cost & conditions
No city rate covers a building or demolition load because the ordinance excludes it, so the container or hauling company quotes its own price for the box, the haul and the disposal. The Sanitation Department can also quote a special collection at (334) 595-0624 when it agrees to take the material.
Arrange it
Contact a licensed hauler or container company to deliver and collect the box, and tell the company what the load contains before it is ordered.
The city does not collect this material at all, a licensed company doing the work is responsible for its own residue, and a contractor load left at the curb can be charged a commercial fee.
City drop-off for recyclables, extra yard debris and Saturday household garbage
Prattville Recycling Center
622 Doster Road, Prattville, AL 36067
Soda cans, paper, shredded paper, junk mail, cardboard broken down, newspaper, plastic bottles, plastic cups, detergent bottles, food cans, magazines, phone books and milk jugs, plus yard debris, household garbage and other listed recyclables for city sanitation customers who show their bill.
Glass, electrical wire, tires and hazardous waste are not accepted. Anyone may bring cardboard, paper or metal, but the yard debris, household garbage and remaining material are limited to City of Prattville residents who present a sanitation bill, and household garbage is listed as a Saturday-only item while the center is only open on the first Saturday of the month. The Garbage Collection page prints 530 Doster Rd for the same drop-off and a shorter weekday window, so confirm the entrance and hours.
Monday through Friday from 7:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. and the first Saturday of the month from 7:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m., which is the window the Recycling Center page publishes; the Sanitation page prints 7:30 to 3:30 for the weekday drop-off.
No charge. The Recycling Center publishes no drop-off fee. Cardboard, paper and metal are open to anyone, and the wider list including yard debris and household garbage requires a City of Prattville sanitation bill.
City landfill site on County Road 4, operated by a private waste company
Prattville Landfill
802 County Road 4, Prattville, AL 36067
Non-garbage items brought in by residents, and household garbage at the site dumpsters with proof of garbage service such as a current water bill.
The landfill is operated by a private waste management company rather than by the city, and the city says there may be a charge, so acceptance and pricing have to come from the operator. The site is closed on Saturday and Sunday, and residents taking garbage need their water bill as proof of service.
Monday through Friday from 7:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.; closed Saturday and Sunday.
No city rate is published because a private operator runs the landfill and the city states there may be a charge. Confirm the material and the amount with JB Waste at (334) 365-4635 or the site at (334) 430-2823 before hauling.
Prices, timing and the details that matter at your address.
How much does pickup cost?+
Choose your items to see the exact price. A standard sofa is $79 first and $29 additional. The highest first-item price applies once; every remaining item uses its additional-item price. Loading, transportation and disposal are included. Review any applicable sales tax and the final total before payment.
Can I book a pickup for today?+
Book by 2pm at your pickup address for same-day pickup, where available. Choose from the dates shown at checkout. Your booking is for a pickup day, and we text you when your hauler is on the way.
Do my items need to be outside when I book?+
You can book while your items are still inside. Arrange any indoor carrying and have everything outside and accessible according to your confirmation. We load and haul it away from there. Contact us before booking if your property has restricted access.
Will the city take a couch out with the yard trash?+
A couch goes out as bulk waste in its own pile, not with the yard debris, because the ordinance lists furniture among the bulk waste categories and requires yard debris and bulk waste to sit in two separate piles. The monthly sanitation fee includes one bulk item collection, and the city's fee table lists a single item of furniture as the first item free, so call the Sanitation Department at (334) 595-0624 to arrange the collection.Official guidance
Are mattresses collected as bulk waste in Prattville?+
Yes. The ordinance puts mattresses in the bulk waste definition, and the city's bulk waste fee table names a mattress or bedspring as the example of the single furniture item that is free with the monthly service. Call the Sanitation Department at (334) 595-0624 to schedule the collection, keep the unit in the bulk pile rather than with the yard debris, and put it out by 7:00 a.m. on the collection day.Official guidance
How do I get rid of a refrigerator or another large appliance?+
Call the Sanitation Department at (334) 595-0624. Large appliances are part of the city's bulk waste definition, but the trash page says a curbside pickup for items such as appliances requires a fee payable in advance and scheduled with the department, and the amount is set from the current cost of disposal. Empty the unit and remove the refrigerator or freezer doors before it goes to the curb.Official guidance
Where do televisions and computers go in Prattville?+
There is no published city route for a television, monitor or computer. The Recycling Center's list does not include electronics and its bins take only cardboard and paper, so the route is the landfill on County Road 4, which accepts non-garbage items from residents for a possible charge and is run by a private waste company. Confirm acceptance and the price at (334) 595-0624 or (334) 365-4635 before the trip.Official guidance
What counts as bulk waste in Prattville?+
The ordinance defines bulk waste as large appliances, mattresses, furniture, bicycles, do-it-yourself construction debris and other bulky items, and it requires bulk waste to sit in a separate pile from the yard debris. One bulk item collection is included in the monthly sanitation fee and the fee table lists the first single furniture item at no charge, so call the Sanitation Department at (334) 595-0624 when the pile grows past that.Official guidance
Which day are garbage and yard trash collected?+
Household garbage and yard trash each come once a week on the day the city's collection map assigns to the neighborhood, and the ordinance allows collection Monday through Friday. The city publishes a GIS map of the districts and answers schedule questions at (334) 595-0624, and everything has to be at the curb by 7:00 a.m. because the trucks leave the sanitation lot by 7:15 a.m.Official guidance
What does the monthly sanitation fee include?+
The monthly sanitation fee covers weekly household garbage collection, recycling collection, yard debris collection and one bulk item collection, and it is billed by the Water Works Board on the water bill. The city published a rate step effective October 1, 2026 for the first container with a separate monthly rate for each additional city container, and there are senior and Social Security provisions that have to be requested through the department and the county.Official guidance
How do I schedule a bulk item pickup?+
Call the Sanitation Department at (334) 595-0624 and ask for the bulk or special collection, because bulk waste is not simply set out with the weekly route. The monthly fee already includes one bulk item collection and the fee table lists the first single item of furniture as free, anything beyond that is charged from the current cost of disposal and prorated for a smaller load, and no special pickups run during the week of a holiday.Official guidance
Where does an old television or computer go?+
The city does not publish a curbside or drop-off route for televisions, monitors or computers, and the Recycling Center's list leaves them out while its bins take only cardboard and paper. The landfill on County Road 4 takes non-garbage items from residents for a possible charge, so call the Sanitation Department at (334) 595-0624 or the landfill at (334) 365-4635 to confirm where the set should go.Official guidance
Who removes renovation debris if the city will not collect it?+
The property owner or the licensed company doing the work removes it, because the ordinance keeps building debris such as scrap lumber, plaster, roofing, concrete, brickbats and sanding dust, along with dirt, stumps and tree trunks, out of the city collection. A contractor load left at the curb can be charged a commercial fee, and a private hauler or container company, or the landfill on County Road 4, prices the load.Official guidance
What can go in the blue garbage cart?+
Only bagged household garbage. The city provides a 95 gallon blue cart, crews will not collect garbage left on the ground beside it, and construction material, dirt, stumps, tires, trees and leaves or grass clippings in loose form are not part of the cart route. The cart goes to the curb by 7:00 a.m. with about 4 feet of clearance and comes back to the residence the evening of collection.Official guidance
