You do not need a whole house of junk. Select the bags, boxes and larger items you actually have. Your combined price is shown online.
You want to know it is handled.
When the next collection does not fit your plans, choose a Dropcurb pickup day. Updates keep you informed, and completion photos show when the booked items are gone.
A few simple choices turn a mixed pile into a clear booking. No need to estimate how much of a truck it might fill.
Filled bags and boxes
Count each trash bag or filled household box. Books and media go by the box. Clothes, bedding and shoes go by the filled bag. Toys packed together have a Box of toys choice. Ask us about unusually heavy or oversized bags and boxes first.
Empty cardboard and containers
Empty cardboard is a different choice: choose single empty boxes or tied bundles of 10 flattened boxes. Compacted bales have their own weight-based choices and require loading-dock access. A Storage bin choice covers the empty bin itself; ask us to confirm the contents if they are going too.
Furniture and other larger items
Add the actual larger item alongside your bags and boxes, such as a sofa, chair or mattress. It has its own price and preparation. Keep construction materials and items needing special handling out of ordinary household bags.

Furniture leaves Jonesboro on a trailer rather than a truck: the city does not collect large or bulky items like furniture at the curb, and sends them to the Legacy Landfill, where a Jonesboro household load of solid waste is not charged.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Jonesboro residents hauling household solid waste to the Legacy Landfill, which charges residents only for construction material; the monthly Community Clean-Up events are also free to residents.
When & how
Take the furniture to the Legacy Landfill during gate hours, Monday to Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. or Saturday from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m., or hold it for the next Community Clean-Up on a Saturday from 8:00 a.m. to noon.
Get it ready
Tarp or secure the load on the way, and keep it clear of the cart and the curb, because the automated trucks collect only what is inside the city container and the ordinance forbids bulk waste at the curb. A couch that is still usable is worth offering for reuse before it becomes a landfill load.
Jonesboro has two bulky routes and neither is the curb. The city's monthly Community Clean-Up takes bulky junk, meaning items too large for a standard trash bin, along with glass and paper recycling, and the Legacy Landfill takes household solid waste from Jonesboro addresses without charge.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Free Community Clean-Up events open to Jonesboro residents, and free household solid waste disposal for Jonesboro residents at the Legacy Landfill; construction material is the only charged residential load.
When & how
Community Clean-Ups run from 8:00 a.m. to noon on a Saturday, generally the first Saturday of the month, with the 2026 schedule alternating between 2650 Lacy Drive and neighbourhood sites, and no event in January 2026. The landfill takes loads Monday to Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. and Saturday from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
Get it ready
Keep the load tarped and secured for the landfill, and keep lawn debris out of a clean-up load if the event is at the Lacy Drive site, where lawn debris is not accepted on clean-up Saturdays. Never leave bulk material at the curb, because the ordinance forbids it and the automated trucks only empty the city container.
Everything goes inside the cart with the lid closed
Bag and tie household trash, put the bags inside the city container with the lid closed, and wheel the cart within five feet of the street edge with the arrows facing out. Put it out no earlier than 6:00 p.m. the day before and no later than 6:00 a.m. on the collection day, keep it five feet from mailboxes and vehicles and out from under basketball goals or high wires, and take it back in within 24 hours.
The sanitation ordinance states plainly that no bulk waste shall be placed curbside and that no bagged or loose trash may sit outside the residential container, and the automated trucks collect only what is inside the cart. Break down boxes and large pieces of cardboard, keep yard waste out of the container and out of a recycling bag, and route furniture, bedding and appliances to the landfill instead.
Yard waste is bagged at 20 pounds and limbs are cut to size
Yard waste goes out twice monthly on the trash day in a paper bag or a reusable container no larger than a 32-gallon can marked Yard Waste, with each bag or container weighing no more than 20 pounds and no sticks larger than two feet long or three inches thick. Limbs are collected once monthly, free of charge, when they are no larger than ten feet long and eight inches across and go out by 6:00 a.m. on the Monday of the collection week, with no stumps, trunks, rocks or dirt.
Tarp the load and strip the compressor before the landfill gate
State law requires every load arriving at Legacy Landfill to be tarped and secured, and only waste from Craighead County is accepted. An appliance or air conditioning unit must have its compressor removed before disposal, hydraulic trailers need working batteries, and construction material is the one residential load a Jonesboro address pays for at the gate.
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.

Monthly Community Clean-Up with the City of Jonesboro
A household with bulky junk, meaning items too large for a standard trash bin, plus glass and paper to drop off on a Saturday morning.
Cost & conditions
No charge. Free events open to Jonesboro residents, one Saturday a month from 8:00 a.m. to noon at a rotating site.
Arrange it
Load the vehicle and go to that month's location, which the city lists in advance: 2650 Lacy Drive for February, March, July, November and December, and neighbourhood sites such as First United Methodist Church on South Main in April, Annie Camp Jr. High in May, Fisher Street United Methodist in June, Llamados Por El Rey Church in August, Parker Park in September and Magnolia Road Church in October.
No event is scheduled in January 2026, lawn debris is not accepted at the Lacy Drive site on clean-up Saturdays, and the city says detailed acceptable and non-acceptable items are shared before each event, so confirm anything unusual.

Can you pick up a small loose pile of household junk?+
Yes. Estimate how many trash bags the small household pile would fill, and bag or box as much as possible. Select furniture and other larger items separately. There is no extra charge just because the pile is loose. Send a photo first if the count or contents are unclear. A household Dumpster Bag choice does not accept construction debris.
Can I book bags, boxes and furniture together?+
Yes. Select the bags and boxes, then add each larger item using its own catalog choice. The booking shows one combined price for the selected items. Move everything to an accessible outdoor spot before pickup; indoor carrying and sorting are not included. Keep anything you want to retain apart from the booked items and identify what goes in your photos and notes.
Where does a Jonesboro couch go?+
To the Legacy Landfill at 238 County Road 476, because the city does not collect large items like furniture at the curb and bulk waste is not allowed there. Jonesboro residents do not pay for household solid waste disposal at the landfill, and the free monthly Community Clean-Up is the other route for bulky junk.Official guidance

Collection schedule changes for holidays or bad weather are announced on the city's Facebook page.Official guidance
Why will the city not take my furniture from the curb?+
Because Jonesboro keeps bulk waste out of the curbside program.

How does Jonesboro recycling work?+
The city runs its own program and issues 65-gallon recycling carts, which are ordered by phone at 870-932-3042 or in person at City Collections, 300 S. Church Street. Recycling takes plastics numbered one and two, aluminum or steel cans, newspaper, office paper, junk mail and corrugated or light cardboard, and the cart sticker sets the schedule: yellow for the first and third week of the month, orange for the second and fourth, both on the trash day.Official guidance
How does a Jonesboro household get rid of paint?+
Dry it out first. The city's answer is to pour kitty litter, newspaper or sand into the can, leave the lid off for a couple of days, and then take the hardened can to the landfill. Liquid paint is refused in the cart, and liquids of any kind are not accepted in curbside collection.Official guidance
