City collection The town bulk trash list names furniture outright, including tables, chairs and couches, so a sofa travels with the same monthly curbside bulk collection that handles the rest of the household clutter. No charge. Included with an active Town of Queen Creek trash and recycling account, because the standard monthly service fee covers one bulk collection a month of up to six cubic yards. The pickup still has to be scheduled.
City collection Mattresses and box springs appear on the town acceptable bulk trash list, so they go out with the monthly bulk pickup and there is no separate mattress program or mattress line item to arrange. No charge. Covered by the standard monthly service fee for a household with an active Town of Queen Creek trash and recycling account, which includes one bulk collection a month of up to six cubic yards.
City collection Large appliances such as microwaves, washers and dryers are accepted in the town bulk trash collection, but the same list excludes refrigerators and freezers, and the discounted self-haul transfer station refuses them as well, so a cooling appliance needs a confirmed route before anything is set out. A washer, dryer or microwave rides along with the included bulk pickup at no extra cost. A refrigerator or freezer is refused by the bulk program, by the discounted transfer station and by the household hazardous waste program, so confirm a retailer or private route and its price before the pickup date rather than leaving the unit at the curb.

The local disposal guide
Will the city take it?
Queen Creek handles household clutter through a monthly curbside bulk trash collection rather than a walk-up transfer counter. The town Environmental Services Division serves about 25,000 homes inside the incorporated limits and contracts the collection work to Waste Connections of Arizona, and the standard monthly service fee already includes one bulk pickup of up to six cubic yards. Residents schedule that pickup through the town's collection widget, set everything curbside by 6 a.m. on the scheduled day, and can add another collection for a published fee through the town's application form. The acceptable item list covers furniture, mattresses, box springs, microwaves, washers, dryers and bagged yard debris, while refrigerators, freezers, carpet, tires, paint, batteries, motor oil and all construction material are refused. For the loads the town will not take, residents can drive to a discounted transfer station, use household hazardous waste vouchers or order a private container.
The town bulk trash list names furniture outright, including tables, chairs and couches, so a sofa travels with the same monthly curbside bulk collection that handles the rest of the household clutter.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Included with an active Town of Queen Creek trash and recycling account, because the standard monthly service fee covers one bulk collection a month of up to six cubic yards. The pickup still has to be scheduled.
When & how
Request the pickup through the Collection tab of the town trash widget by noon on the business day before the date you want, and choose a Monday through Friday date.
Get it ready
Put the furniture curbside by 6 a.m. on the scheduled day and keep the whole load inside six cubic yards, because the town collects everything left at the curb on that date, including any item you meant to keep.
Mattresses and box springs appear on the town acceptable bulk trash list, so they go out with the monthly bulk pickup and there is no separate mattress program or mattress line item to arrange.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Covered by the standard monthly service fee for a household with an active Town of Queen Creek trash and recycling account, which includes one bulk collection a month of up to six cubic yards.
When & how
Add the mattress to a scheduled bulk pickup, requested by noon on the business day before the collection date, and set it out with the rest of the load.
Get it ready
Keep the mattress dry, stack it with the rest of the bulk load, and put it curbside by 6 a.m. on the scheduled day inside the six cubic yard allowance.
Large appliances such as microwaves, washers and dryers are accepted in the town bulk trash collection, but the same list excludes refrigerators and freezers, and the discounted self-haul transfer station refuses them as well, so a cooling appliance needs a confirmed route before anything is set out.
City cost & eligibility
A washer, dryer or microwave rides along with the included bulk pickup at no extra cost. A refrigerator or freezer is refused by the bulk program, by the discounted transfer station and by the household hazardous waste program, so confirm a retailer or private route and its price before the pickup date rather than leaving the unit at the curb.
When & how
Schedule a bulk collection as usual for a washer, dryer or microwave. Settle a refrigerator or freezer separately first, because it will not be collected at the curb and it is not accepted at the transfer station.
Get it ready
Keep a washer, dryer or microwave inside the six cubic yard load, and remove fuel and oil from any gas equipment. Keep a refrigerator or freezer out of the bulk pile, because both the town bulk list and the transfer station refuse those units.
Televisions and electronics are not on the town acceptable bulk trash list, so they do not travel with the monthly curbside pickup. The town instead holds QC Recycles drop-off events a few times a year for electronics, and the Gilbert household hazardous waste facility that Queen Creek residents reach with a town voucher takes computer equipment and cell phones but refuses CRT monitors, CRT televisions and rear projectors.
City cost & eligibility
The QC Recycles drop-off events are free to Queen Creek residents but are scheduled only a few times a year, and no walk-up electronics counter is published. Confirm which device the next event accepts, or whether a household hazardous waste voucher covers it, by contacting town customer service before loading a vehicle.
When & how
Check the town recycling events calendar for the next QC Recycles date and request a household hazardous waste voucher in advance if a computer, phone or battery is the item, because the Gilbert facility runs Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays from 7 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. and vouchers can take up to three weeks.
Get it ready
Wipe personal data from computers and phones before they leave the house. Keep cathode-ray televisions, cathode-ray monitors and rear projectors out of a voucher load, because the Gilbert facility refuses them.
Construction material is refused by the town bulk trash collection, which names concrete, dirt, rock, gravel, drywall, pavers, wood and brick, while the discounted self-haul transfer station does accept construction materials and carpet inside its 1,000 pound limit, so a renovation load can use that route or a private container.
City cost & eligibility
The town publishes no construction rate of its own: the bulk pickup refuses construction material, and a qualifying resident load of up to 1,000 pounds goes to the Apache Junction transfer station at the town's discounted self-haul rate. Confirm the load and the price at the scale house or with a private container company before hauling.
When & how
Take the load to one of the additional sites the town names for loads its own program will not accept, the San Tan Transfer Station or the Apache Junction Landfill and other Pinal County locations, none of which offer the Queen Creek customer discount. Contact the site for its own charges first.
Get it ready
Keep construction material out of the curbside load, because the town collects everything left at the curb on a bulk date and does not service the items its list refuses. Cover and secure a self-hauled load, and confirm the specific material is accepted before the trip.
Exercise equipment is not named on the town acceptable or non-acceptable bulk trash lists, so a treadmill or weight machine has to be confirmed with the town before it is set out. Queen Creek publishes no exercise equipment rule of its own.
City cost & eligibility
A machine that fits the town acceptable item list and the six cubic yard bulk allowance would go out with the included pickup, so confirm the specific item with town customer service before the collection date instead of assuming it is covered.
When & how
Ask the town trash and recycling customer service team whether the machine is accepted, then add it to the same bulk request if it is, because the town asks for scheduling by noon on the business day before the pickup.
Get it ready
Describe the machine and its size when you ask, remove the console or any battery pack so the electronics can be routed separately, and keep the frame out of the pile until the town confirms it belongs in the load.
Queen Creek runs a monthly bulk trash pickup for households with an active town trash and recycling account, and the standard monthly service fee includes one collection of up to six cubic yards. The town publishes both an acceptable item list and set-out tips that govern what may go to the curb.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Included with an active Town of Queen Creek trash and recycling account, covering one bulk collection a month of up to six cubic yards. An additional collection in the same month is available for a published extra bulk pick up fee through the town application form.
When & how
Schedule the pickup by noon on the business day before you want it, using the Collection tab of the town trash widget, and pick a Monday through Friday date.
Get it ready
Keep the load to six cubic yards and put it curbside by 6 a.m. on the scheduled day, knowing that everything left at the curb on that date will be collected. Yard debris must be bagged, bundled or boxed, with branches cut under four feet, trunks under twelve inches across, and bags and bundles under 50 pounds.
Bulk trash is scheduled rather than assumed in Queen Creek. The town asks for the request by noon on the business day before the pickup, submitted through the Collection tab of its trash widget, and the household needs a current and active town trash and recycling account. Collection runs Monday through Friday, so a weekend date is not available.
Put it out by 6 a.m. and keep the load to six cubic yards
Everything for the bulk pickup must be curbside by 6 a.m. on the scheduled day, and the load cannot exceed six cubic yards, which the town compares to about six dishwashers. Collection can take up to 48 hours. Anything left at the curb on that date will be collected, including containers and cans, so bring in whatever you intend to keep.
Refrigerators and freezers, carpet, construction material such as concrete, dirt, rock, gravel, pavers, wood and brick, tires, paint, batteries and motor oil, horse manure and car parts are all refused, and household hazardous waste is not accepted in a bulk collection at all. Route those items to the town household hazardous waste voucher program, the discounted transfer station where the load qualifies, or a private option, and never leave them in the pile.
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.

Request a household hazardous waste voucher
A household with batteries, motor oil, non-latex paint, pesticides, pool chemicals, propane tanks, light bulbs, a computer, a cell phone or another item on the town acceptable hazardous waste list.
Cost & conditions
No charge. No extra charge for residents with an active Town of Queen Creek trash and recycling account who request a town voucher in advance and bring a picture ID. Only 32 vouchers are issued each month, first come first served, and they expire two weeks after receipt.
Arrange it
Request a voucher from the town, wait for customer service to contact you, then take the materials, the voucher and a picture ID to the Gilbert household hazardous waste facility.

A household or contractor with renovation debris that the town bulk program and the discounted transfer station both refuse and that is too large for one vehicle trip.
Cost & conditions
No public rate covers a private box, because the company quotes its own price for the container, the haul and the disposal. Confirm the rate and the accepted material before ordering, and note that hazardous material, paint, batteries and tires need their own route rather than a box.
Arrange it
Contact a licensed container or hauling company to place the box, and have the same company collect it when the work is finished.
Construction material is refused by the town bulk program, though a qualifying resident load of up to 1,000 pounds can go to the discounted transfer station, so a private container is the practical option for a larger renovation. Household hazardous waste, liquid waste and tires still cannot go in the box.
