The local disposal guide
Will the city take it?
Sun Lakes is an unincorporated community, so there is no city solid waste department to call: Maricopa County states plainly that solid waste and sanitation collection, bulk trash collection, household hazardous waste collection and recycling in unincorporated areas are provided by private services, which means the collection route for this address is arranged with a hauler or through the community association rather than the county. What the county does publish is the self haul side. Its six Waste Resources transfer stations are open to every Maricopa County resident with no identification required, they take payment by debit or credit card only, and they price a load by the vehicle that carries it: a car load of household trash, a van or sport utility vehicle load, a pickup bed load, a trailer load or a bag of trash at a per bag rate. Green waste has its own lower rate table and its own rule, because bagged or bundled green waste is taken year round while bulk green waste is only accepted during the county's quarterly events at three named stations. Furniture, sofas, chairs and mattresses are each priced per item, appliances are priced per item with cooling units accepted only after the refrigerant has been evacuated, the compressor removed and the unit tagged with documentation, and the recyclable streams that include electronics, scrap metal, glass, cans and paper are taken without a load charge. Tires are limited to five per visit with the rims off, used oil or antifreeze is limited to five gallons per visit, and household hazardous waste, batteries, mercury bulbs and asbestos are refused at these facilities.
Collection is arranged privately in unincorporated Sun Lakes
Special rules apply
Because Sun Lakes is unincorporated, the county does not provide collection: solid waste, bulk trash, household hazardous waste and recycling in unincorporated areas are provided by private services.
City cost & eligibility
Neither the county nor a city publishes a residential collection rate for this community, because the service is private, so confirm the hauler, the community association arrangement and the current charge before setting material out.
When & how
Confirm who collects the address and on which day before putting anything at the curb, because there is no municipal collection day to fall back on in an unincorporated community.
Get it ready
Ask the hauler or the community association which containers are used, what is accepted and what the schedule is, and keep hazardous products, batteries, mercury bulbs and asbestos out of any curbside container, because those streams are refused at the county facilities as well.
The county's six transfer stations are open to every Maricopa County resident with no identification required, and a load is priced by the vehicle that carries it, from a car load of household trash to a trailer load or a bag of trash.
City cost & eligibility
From $2 for the published bagged trash rate of $2 per 30 gallon bag, with a car or station wagon load of household trash at $6, vans and sport utility vehicles at $9, pickup trucks at $12 and trailers at $12, green waste loads at $4 to $40 depending on the vehicle, and per item prices for furniture, mattresses, appliances and CRTs. All Maricopa County residents, with no identification required at the recycling centers. Payment is by debit or credit card only, and vehicle load pricing covers the cargo area of a single vehicle or trailer.
When & how
The stations operate from 7:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., with day patterns that differ by site: Cave Creek and Hassayampa run Wednesday through Saturday, Aguila is open Thursday and Friday, and Morristown is open Wednesday and Saturday, so check the site before loading.
Get it ready
Separate recyclables from the trash load because the recyclable streams carry no load charge, keep tires to five or fewer per visit with the rims off, keep used oil or antifreeze to five gallons per visit, and leave batteries, household hazardous waste, propane or refrigerant containers, asbestos, manure, radioactive material and wet cell batteries out of the load entirely because they are refused.
Furniture is priced per item at the county transfer stations, with a sofa or chair on its own published line, so a household can haul it in or send it with a private hauler.
City cost & eligibility
From $8 for the published per item rate for furniture and a sofa or chair at the county transfer stations. Maricopa County residents hauling the item to a transfer station during operating hours and paying by debit or credit card. A private hauler sets its own price for a curbside pickup.
When & how
Take the piece to a county transfer station during its published hours, or arrange the private collection for the address.
Get it ready
Keep the piece whole enough to handle, remove anything you are keeping, and separate it from the trash load so it is charged on the per item line rather than by volume.
A mattress is on the county's per item line beside furniture, so it is charged by the piece at a county transfer station.
City cost & eligibility
From $8 for the published per item rate for a mattress at the county transfer stations, on the same line as furniture and a sofa or chair. Maricopa County residents hauling the piece to a transfer station during operating hours and paying by debit or credit card. A private hauler sets its own price for a curbside pickup.
When & how
Haul the piece to a county transfer station during its published hours or use the private collection for the address.
Get it ready
Keep the mattress dry and wrapped so it can be handled, count a mattress and box spring as separate pieces, and keep the bedding out of the green waste load, which is priced for tree trimmings, wood, grass and weeds.
Appliances are priced per item at the county stations, and a unit that contains refrigerant is only accepted after the refrigerant has been evacuated, the compressor removed and the unit tagged with documentation.
City cost & eligibility
From $8 for the published per item rate for all appliances at the county transfer stations, with cooling units accepted only with the refrigerant evacuated, the compressor removed and the unit tagged as the county requires. Maricopa County residents hauling the unit to a transfer station. Large appliances such as air conditioners, dishwashers, freezers, refrigerators, stoves, washers, dryers and water heaters are priced per item rather than in the free scrap metal stream.
When & how
Arrange the refrigerant evacuation and compressor removal first, then haul the unit to a county transfer station during its published hours, or send it with the private collection for the address.
Get it ready
Keep the documentation from the certified technician who evacuated the system, because the county requires the unit to be evacuated, the compressor removed and the unit tagged before it will accept it. Small metal items go in the free scrap metal stream, but a large appliance does not.
Electronics are part of the county's free recyclable streams, with televisions, monitors, computers, printers, phones and small devices all listed, while a CRT is priced per item.
City cost & eligibility
From $21 for the published per item rate for a CRT, with the rest of the electronic stream - televisions, monitors, computers, laptops, printers, phones, stereos, games and small devices - accepted in the free recyclable stream. Maricopa County residents bringing electronics to a transfer station during operating hours. The recyclable streams carry no load charge, while CRTs are priced per item.
When & how
Take the devices to a county transfer station during its published hours and hand them over as separated recyclable material rather than burying them in a trash load.
Get it ready
Wipe personal data from the device first, keep electronics out of the trash load so they are not charged by volume, and check whether the screen is a CRT, because that item carries its own per item price while other electronics ride the free recyclable stream.
The county publishes household trash and green waste rate tables rather than a construction rate, so a project load has to be confirmed at the station and the prohibited streams left out entirely.
City cost & eligibility
The county's published tables cover household trash, green waste, per item furniture, appliance and CRT prices and the free recyclable streams, with no construction rate, so confirm with the county how a project load is priced before hauling it in.
When & how
Confirm the load and the station's day pattern before the trip, and use the private hauler for anything the county will not take.
Get it ready
Keep friable asbestos-containing material, petroleum contaminated soils, industrial waste, infectious waste, manure, closed or full containers and industrial chemicals out of the load, because the county refuses them outright. Separate clean wood and yard material from mixed debris where the project allows, since the green waste table is far lower than the household trash table.
Exercise equipment is named on no county page, so a machine has to be confirmed with the county before it is loaded, and the private collection is the other route.
City cost & eligibility
The county's per item line covers furniture, sofas, chairs, mattresses, appliances and CRTs but names no exercise machine, so confirm how a treadmill or weight machine is priced before the trip or send it with the private collection.
When & how
Ask the county before loading the machine, and check the station's day pattern because the sites do not all open on the same days.
Get it ready
Break the machine down as far as it comes apart, remove the weights, and keep it out of any load that mixes in prohibited material, since the whole load can be refused for a contaminated item.
Green waste has its own lower rate table at the county stations, bagged or bundled material is taken year round, and bulk green waste is only accepted during the county's quarterly events at three named stations.
City cost & eligibility
From $4 for the published green waste rate table of $4 for a car or station wagon load, $6 for a van or sport utility vehicle, $26.75 for a pickup bed load and $40 for a trailer, with bagged or bundled green waste accepted year round and bulk green waste only during the quarterly events. Maricopa County residents hauling tree trimmings, wood, grass and weeds to a transfer station, with the quarterly bulk green waste events held only at Cave Creek, Hassayampa and Rainbow Valley.
When & how
Bag or bundle green waste for any operating day, and watch the county calendar for the quarterly bulk green waste events, which run only at the three named stations.
Get it ready
Bag or bundle the material so it can be taken at any time of year, notify the attendant on arrival that the load is clean green organics, keep palm fronds and oleanders out of the green stream, and keep food or garbage separate from the green material.
Sun Lakes is unincorporated, so the county does not run a collection route here: solid waste, bulk trash, household hazardous waste and recycling in unincorporated areas are provided by private services. Confirm the hauler or community association arrangement, the container and the collection day before setting anything out, and never put hazardous waste, batteries, mercury bulbs or asbestos in a curbside container.
A load is priced by the vehicle, so separate the streams before the trip: recyclables, electronics and scrap metal go in the free streams, green waste rides the lower green table, furniture, mattresses, appliances and CRTs are charged per item, and household trash is priced by the car, van, pickup or trailer load or by the bag. Tires are limited to five per visit with the rims off, used oil or antifreeze to five gallons, and prohibited wastes such as batteries, household hazardous waste, asbestos and propane containers are refused.
Cooling appliances need the refrigerant removed first
The county accepts appliances that contained refrigerant only after the system has been evacuated, the compressor removed and the unit tagged as the county requires, with documentation of that work. Expect the per item appliance charge rather than the free scrap metal stream, and arrange the work with a certified technician before the trip.
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.
Maricopa County Environmental Services Waste Resources with private collection services
Arrange the private collection for the address
A Sun Lakes household that wants curbside collection, bulk pickup or a household hazardous waste route without hauling anything itself.
Cost & conditions
The county provides no collection service in unincorporated areas, so the hauler or community association sets the price and the schedule; confirm both before relying on a pickup day.
Arrange it
Ask the community association or a licensed hauler about the containers, the collection day, the bulky item rules and any household hazardous waste arrangement for the address.
No county or municipal route exists here, prices and schedules vary by provider, and hazardous products still have to go through a route that accepts them rather than a curbside container.
