City collection Furniture is one of the large household items the city names for the scheduled curbside bulk collection, which runs six times a calendar year at no charge for a single-family home inside city limits, with up to four items in each pickup. No charge. Six scheduled curbside bulk pickups a calendar year at no charge for a single-family residence inside Lake Havasu City limits, with up to four items per pickup; tires and Freon certification are the published exceptions.
City collection No Lake Havasu City page names a mattress or box spring. The bulk collection is described as being for large household items such as water heaters, furniture and appliances, and that list is not exhaustive, so the unit is confirmed with Republic Services before it goes to the curb or the landfill. The scheduled bulk collection is published as free apart from tires and Freon certification, and a mattress is not named in it, so Republic Services confirms whether the unit rides the free pickup or has to be hauled to the landfill at a per-weight charge at 928-855-9441.
City collection Appliances are named among the large household items the city collects on the scheduled bulk pickup, and water heaters appear in the same list. A unit that holds refrigerant is the one case the city singles out, because the bulk service is free except for tires and Freon certification. The bulk pickup is published as free apart from tires and Freon certification, and the city does not publish what the Freon step costs or who has to provide it, so Republic Services confirms that detail for a refrigerator, freezer or air conditioner at 928-855-9441 before the pickup.

The local disposal guide
Will the city take it?
Republic Services runs refuse and recycling in Lake Havasu City, with carts at the street the night before a collection that starts at 5 a.m. and a lid that has to be closed, because the city takes household waste only and refuses commercial material, remodeling debris, dirt, rock, liquids, tires and car batteries at the cart. Large household items take a different route: the city offers a scheduled curbside bulk collection six times a year at no charge, with up to four items each time, for single-family homes inside city limits, and it refuses construction and tear-down material there. Televisions, computers and other electronics are kept out of the recycling cart, so they go to the Republic Services office, to Staples, or to the city landfill, which takes e-waste by weight and cash only. A television is booked with Republic Services on a scheduled pickup, and only from a single-family home inside city limits. Household chemicals have their own answer list, from antifreeze and used oil to propane bottles and mercury thermostats.
No Lake Havasu City page names a mattress or box spring. The bulk collection is described as being for large household items such as water heaters, furniture and appliances, and that list is not exhaustive, so the unit is confirmed with Republic Services before it goes to the curb or the landfill.
City cost & eligibility
The scheduled bulk collection is published as free apart from tires and Freon certification, and a mattress is not named in it, so Republic Services confirms whether the unit rides the free pickup or has to be hauled to the landfill at a per-weight charge at 928-855-9441.
When & how
Call Republic Services at 928-855-9441 before the unit is put out. A pickup has to be scheduled in advance, the property has to be a single-family residence inside city limits, and up to four items are allowed per pickup on one of the six annual visits.
Get it ready
Keep the unit dry and put it out only once a scheduled pickup is confirmed, because the collector starts at 5 a.m. and loose items left without an appointment are not part of the route. If the answer is a landfill trip instead, plan for a cash payment charged by weight at 3251 Chenoweth Road.
Furniture is one of the large household items the city names for the scheduled curbside bulk collection, which runs six times a calendar year at no charge for a single-family home inside city limits, with up to four items in each pickup.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Six scheduled curbside bulk pickups a calendar year at no charge for a single-family residence inside Lake Havasu City limits, with up to four items per pickup; tires and Freon certification are the published exceptions.
When & how
Call Republic Services at 928-855-9441 to book the pickup in advance, and put the furniture out the night before the collection day, since collectors start at 5 a.m. and the city does not take items placed out late.
Get it ready
Set the furniture at the street rather than in it, keep it clear of the carts, and keep construction debris, tear-down items, landscaping and commercial material out of the load, because the bulk service refuses those. Household chemicals and liquids never ride with a furniture load.
Appliances are named among the large household items the city collects on the scheduled bulk pickup, and water heaters appear in the same list. A unit that holds refrigerant is the one case the city singles out, because the bulk service is free except for tires and Freon certification.
City cost & eligibility
The bulk pickup is published as free apart from tires and Freon certification, and the city does not publish what the Freon step costs or who has to provide it, so Republic Services confirms that detail for a refrigerator, freezer or air conditioner at 928-855-9441 before the pickup.
When & how
Schedule the pickup with Republic Services in advance, up to four items per visit and six visits a calendar year, and have the unit at the street the night before the collection day.
Get it ready
Empty the appliance and keep the doors secure, and separate a refrigerated unit so the Freon step can be handled on its own. Removed refrigerant canisters are not accepted at the Republic Services office, and the landfill refuses bio-medical waste, so neither route takes the recovered gas.
Electronics cannot go in the recycling cart, and the city publishes three routes instead: the city landfill, which takes computers, telecom and audio-visual equipment, printers, copiers and fax machines for a per-weight cash charge; Republic Services, which takes computers, phones, printers, stereo equipment, radios and fax machines at its office on College Drive, and collects a television from a single-family residence inside city limits on a scheduled pickup; and Staples, which takes computers, monitors, keyboards, laptops and printers. The water heaters, furniture and appliances that the free large-item collection names are separate from these devices, so a television is booked with Republic Services on a scheduled pickup instead.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Staples at 1851 Kiowa Avenue takes computers, monitors, keyboards, laptops and printers at no published charge, and Republic Services takes computers, telephones, cell phones, printers, stereo equipment, radios, fax machines and, for a single-family residence inside city limits, televisions on a scheduled pickup; the city landfill takes e-waste by weight and is cash only.
When & how
Staples is a retail counter, Republic Services takes these items at its Lake Havasu City office, and the landfill is open Monday to Friday from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. and Saturday from 8 a.m. to noon. A television from a single-family residence inside city limits has to be scheduled with Republic Services in advance and counts against the six annual bulk visits.
Get it ready
Wipe the drive or reset the device and keep the screen whole, because a broken tube is a handling hazard. Never put electronics in the recycling cart, which the city's brochure says plainly refuses them, and never mix them into a construction or household trash load.
Construction debris has no free city channel. The bulk service refuses construction debris and tear-down items, and the city points loads that need a temporary bin at that route, so a renovation has to be arranged rather than set out.
City cost & eligibility
Lake Havasu City publishes no construction debris channel or rate: the bulk collection refuses construction and tear-down material, the landfill publishes no construction material list and charges everything by weight in cash, and temporary bin service is a private arrangement, so the route and cost are confirmed with Republic Services at 928-855-9441.
When & how
Arrange the bin or the disposal trip around the project, because the bulky pickup and the trash cart both refuse renovation material. If a self-haul to the landfill is confirmed, use its hours, Monday to Friday 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. or Saturday 8 a.m. to noon, with cash ready.
Get it ready
Keep construction debris out of the trash cart along with dirt and rock, and keep it out of the bulk pile, which is limited to large household items. Separate anything that is actually household waste, because the monthly cart service takes household waste only.
Exercise equipment is not named among the large household items the city collects, and a treadmill does not fit a trash cart, so the machine is confirmed with Republic Services before it is put out.
City cost & eligibility
No published fee covers an exercise machine: the free bulk collection names water heaters, furniture and appliances, and the landfill charges by weight in cash, so Republic Services confirms the route and the cost at 928-855-9441.
When & how
Call Republic Services before set-out and, if the machine is accepted, book it into one of the six annual bulk pickups with up to four items and have it at the street the night before.
Get it ready
Fold or tie down the deck and handles, pull off the console and any battery pack so the electronics can be handled separately, and keep the machine dry. A machine with electronics in it cannot go in the recycling cart, which refuses electronics outright.
Lake Havasu City runs a scheduled curbside bulky collection for large household items such as water heaters, furniture and appliances, free of charge up to six times a calendar year with a limit of four items per pickup, for a single-family residence inside city limits.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Free scheduled curbside bulk collection for a single-family residence inside city limits, up to six pickups a calendar year and up to four items per pickup; tires and Freon certification are the published exceptions, and commercial waste is excluded.
When & how
Book the pickup in advance with Republic Services at 928-855-9441 and put the items out the night before the collection day, since the collection window runs from 5 a.m. to 6 p.m. and late material is not guaranteed a pickup.
Get it ready
Keep the pile to household material from a single-family residence, with no construction debris, tear-down items, commercial waste, landscaping or anything that would need a temporary bin. Carts still have to be placed within three feet of the street with four feet of clearance and the lids closed.
Carts go out the night before, close to the street and not in it
Place carts at the street the night before the service day, as close to the street as possible but not in it, with the wheels toward the house and the lid closed. Leave three feet to the street and four feet of clearance from other carts, mailboxes, cars and fire hydrants, and remember the collection window starts at 5 a.m., so anything set out later may be missed.
Household waste only, with liquids and batteries kept out
The cart takes residential household waste only, so no commercial material, remodeling debris, dirt or rock, and no tires, car batteries, liquids or other hazardous waste. No hot ashes either, and the cart itself belongs to Republic Services, so it stays with the address. Green waste goes in the trash cart or is bundled and tied at no more than four feet long and 18 inches thick, extra bags go beside a full cart, and paint is the one exception that can be dried out with kitty litter or sand and then placed in the trash.
The bulky collection is a scheduled service, not a standing route: call Republic Services at 928-855-9441, confirm the property is a single-family residence inside city limits, and keep the load to four items on one of the six annual pickups. Construction debris, tear-down material, commercial waste and landscaping are refused, and tires plus Freon certification are the exceptions to the free service.
Only three holidays interrupt collection, and then it runs a day late
Trash and recycling are collected on every holiday except Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day and New Year's Day. When one of those falls in the collection week, service runs one day later for the rest of that week, so a Thursday route moves to Friday and Friday moves to Saturday.
Recycling goes in empty, clean and dry, with the refusals kept out
Glass jars and bottles, cartons, plastic bottles and containers, aluminum, tin and steel cans, foil and pie tins, and paper and cardboard including flattened boxes, office paper, file folders, magazines, catalogs, newspaper, junk mail and phone books all belong in the recycling cart when they are empty, clean and dry. Food waste, clothing, yard waste, styrofoam, ceramics and dishes, light bulbs, window glass and mirrors, plastic grocery bags, construction waste, electronics, motor oil containers and hazardous waste do not.
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.
A single-family home inside city limits with large household items such as furniture, appliances or a water heater that will not fit in the cart.
Cost & conditions
No charge. Free up to six scheduled pickups a calendar year with up to four items per pickup for a single-family residence inside city limits; tires and Freon certification are the published exceptions and commercial waste is excluded.
Arrange it
Call Republic Services at 928-855-9441 to book the pickup in advance, then put the items at the street the night before the collection day and keep them clear of the carts.
Four items per visit and six visits a year, single-family residences inside city limits only, and no construction debris, tear-down items, commercial waste, landscaping or loads that need a temporary bin. A refrigerated appliance needs the Freon question settled first.
A household that would rather move the load itself, including e-waste the landfill accepts, and any bulky item the pickup route refuses.
Cost & conditions
The landfill charges by weight and takes cash only, and no rate is published on the city pages, so the cost is confirmed at the gate or with Republic Services at 928-855-9441.
Arrange it
Drive two miles east off Highway 95 to 3251 Chenoweth Road and use the gate Monday to Friday from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. or Saturday from 8 a.m. to noon, with cash ready because cards are not accepted.
The published e-waste list covers computers, credit card machines, telecom, test and laboratory, medical and audio-visual equipment, printers, copiers and fax machines, and bio-medical waste is refused. Construction material has no published acceptance list, so confirm it before loading.
A household with computers, monitors, keyboards, laptops or printers that should not go in the cart or the bulky pile.
Cost & conditions
No charge. Staples at 1851 Kiowa Avenue is published by the city as accepting computers, monitors, keyboards, laptops and printers, with no fee stated.
Arrange it
Take the devices to the Staples counter at 1851 Kiowa Avenue in Lake Havasu City and hand them in.
The published list stops at computers, monitors, keyboards, laptops and printers, and the city page does not give opening hours, so call the store at 928-505-1101 before a first trip and use the landfill or Republic Services for other devices.
City landfill east of Highway 95 that takes e-waste and charges by weight in cash

Will Lake Havasu City take a mattress with the bulk pickup?+
The city's bulk service names large household items such as water heaters, furniture and appliances and does not name a mattress, so the answer comes from Republic Services at 928-855-9441. A pickup must be scheduled in advance for a single-family residence inside city limits, with up to four items allowed on each of the six annual visits.Official guidance

Does the free bulk pickup cover a refrigerator?+
The city's bulk collection is free except for tires and Freon certification, so a refrigerator, freezer or air conditioner depends on that Freon step.

Where do Lake Havasu City televisions and computers go?+
