A clear count. An exact price.

Count the bags and boxes, not everything inside.

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.

Construction and demolition debris

Not on the regular city route

Construction debris is named on the refusal list for the Waste Management special collection programme, and Corona publishes no city curbside or drop-off route for renovation material.

City cost & eligibility
Corona publishes no construction collection rate because the city service does not take the material. A private container company or a Riverside County waste facility sets its own acceptance and price, so confirm both before the load leaves the property.
When & how
Arrange a private container or a county facility before the project starts, and keep the material off the curb on ordinary collection days and out of a special collection request.
Get it ready
Keep construction and demolition material out of all three carts and out of the bulk item pile, because the special collection refuses it. Separate treated wood, drywall, roofing and concrete so the receiving site can confirm what it will take, and route paint, solvents and chemicals to a household hazardous waste facility instead.

Exercise equipment

Special rules apply

Exercise equipment is named nowhere on the Corona pages, and the special collection programme refuses oversized or heavy items.

City cost & eligibility
No published rate covers an exercise machine. If it is accepted it fits inside the free special collection allowance, so confirm the item and any charge with Waste Management at (800) 423-9986 before the collection day.
When & how
Call Waste Management at (800) 423-9986 with the machine type and weight before scheduling, then include it in the pickup only if it is accepted.
Get it ready
Break the machine down so it can be handled, keep the pieces inside the six bulk item allowance, and remove any console or battery pack so the electronics can be handled separately.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

Three carts, one service day

Corona provides three 96-gallon carts, one for trash, one for mixed recycling and one for organic recycling, with 35-gallon and 64-gallon carts available on request, and all of them are collected once a week on the same service day. Organics take yard waste, food scraps and food-soiled paper, and under Senate Bill 1383 every single family and multi-family property of four units or less has to take part.

Schedule special collections two days early

The bulky item, electronic waste and universal waste programme and the used oil programme have to be scheduled at least 48 hours before the service day, and a late request is collected on the next service day. Each household may schedule up to three free special collections a year with up to six bulk items, five electronic items and 15 universal waste items in each, and couches, wrapped and taped mattresses and box springs, refrigerators, washers, dryers and household electronics are the accepted items.

Batteries, phones and used oil have their own free routes

Household batteries and unwanted cell phones go on top of the recycling cart in a see-through clear plastic bag on the service day, with no scheduling needed, and the accepted types are AA, AAA, C, D and 9V batteries, rechargeable or specialty batteries including alkaline, nickel, silver and mercury types, and cell phones. Embedded batteries, electric vehicle batteries, e-bike and e-scooter batteries and lithium automotive batteries are refused. Used motor oil is collected free on the service day, two gallons per resident plus the filter, with the oil in a clearly marked screw-top container and the filter in a sealed plastic bag, scheduled by calling Waste Management at (800) 423-9986.

Hazardous waste never goes in a cart

Throwing hazardous waste into the trash or recycling containers can cause fires and harm the environment. Riverside County's Department of Waste Resources runs bi-annual household hazardous waste events in the spring and fall for county residents, and permanent facilities are within driving distance, including Agua Mansa in Jurupa Valley on non-holiday Saturdays and the Lake Elsinore maintenance facility on the first Saturday of the month except January and December. Antifreeze, batteries, oil and latex paint can also go to an ABOP site.

Schedule one of the free special collections

Corona households with a couch, a wrapped mattress or box spring, a refrigerator, washer or dryer, or household electronics that will not fit a cart.

Cost & conditions
No charge. Corona residential customers on the Waste Management service, up to three free special collections a year with up to six bulk items, five electronic waste items and 15 universal waste items per pickup. Additional pickups can be requested for a fee.
Arrange it
Schedule at least 48 hours before your service day at home.wm.com/corona or by calling Waste Management at (800) 423-9986, and set the items out for that service day.

Six bulk items, five electronic items and 15 universal waste items per collection, and three free collections a year. Car parts, construction debris, paint, cleaners, chemicals, tires and oversized or heavy items are refused, and mattresses and box springs have to be wrapped and taped.

Open the bulky item service

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Corona runs the carts through Waste Management, and everything unusual goes through one of three doors. Large pieces use the special collection programme, up to three times a year for free with six bulk items, five electronic items and 15 universal waste items in a pickup, scheduled at least 48 hours ahead at home.wm.com/corona or with (800) 423-9986, and mattresses have to be wrapped and taped first. Batteries and old cell phones ride on top of the recycling cart in a clear bag with no scheduling, and used motor oil and its filter are collected on the service day in marked and sealed containers. Paint, cleaners, chemicals, oil, sharps and fluorescent tubes never go in a cart: they go to the county's bi-annual collection events or to a permanent county facility such as Agua Mansa in Jurupa Valley. Construction debris is refused by the city programme, so a renovation load needs a private container or a county facility.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

Bulk junk removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Corona.

How much does bulk junk removal cost in Corona?

A trash bag is $59 as the first item and $10 additional. A filled household box is $59 as the first item. Add your actual items and quantities to see the combined price before booking. Loading, transportation and disposal are included; any applicable sales tax is shown before payment.

Can you pick up bags of junk today?

Book by 2pm in the pickup address’s local time for same-day pickup. Available dates appear at checkout. Have the booked bags and boxes outside and accessible according to your confirmation. You receive pickup updates and completion photos; the booking is for a day rather than an exact arrival time.

Do I count every object inside a bag or box?

No. Count the filled bags or boxes using the matching choice. Books and media go in Filled household box; clothes, bedding and shoes go in Bag of clothes & bedding; packed toys have a Box of toys choice. Empty cardboard is separate, with individual empty boxes and bundles of 10 flattened boxes. Heavy, oversized or unusual contents need a photo review before booking.

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.

How do I put a mattress out in Corona?

Wrap and tape it first, then schedule a bulky item collection with Waste Management at least 48 hours before your service day, either online at home.wm.com/corona or by calling (800) 423-9986. Mattresses and box springs are on the accepted list, and Corona households may schedule up to three free special collections a year with up to six bulk items per pickup.Official guidance

Can a couch go out with the Corona carts?

A couch goes on a Waste Management bulky item collection instead of in a cart. Couches are the first item on the accepted list, and up to six bulk items can go in one of the three free special collections a year. Schedule at least 48 hours ahead at home.wm.com/corona or by calling (800) 423-9986.Official guidance

How are appliances collected in Corona?

Does Corona collect construction debris?

No. Construction debris is on the refusal list for the Waste Management special collection programme, and the city publishes no curbside or drop-off route for renovation material.

Will Corona collect an exercise machine?

Exercise equipment is not named on the accepted or refused lists for the special collection programme, which refuses oversized or heavy items. Call Waste Management at (800) 423-9986 with the machine type and weight before you schedule, because an accepted machine would count toward the six bulk items in the pickup.Official guidance

How many special collections does a Corona household get?

Up to three free special collections a year through Waste Management, each taking up to six bulk items, five electronic waste items and 15 universal waste items. Additional pickups can be requested for a fee, and every request has to be scheduled at least 48 hours before your service day at home.wm.com/corona or by calling (800) 423-9986.Official guidance

What carts does a Corona household get?

Three 96-gallon carts, one each for trash, mixed recycling and organics, all collected once a week on the same service day, with 35-gallon and 64-gallon carts available on request.

How far ahead do I book a Corona bulky pickup?

At least 48 hours before your service day, either online at home.wm.com/corona or by calling Waste Management at (800) 423-9986. A request that arrives late is collected on the next service day, and each household may schedule up to three free special collections a year with six bulk items, five electronic items and 15 universal waste items per pickup.Official guidance

Where do paint and chemicals go in Corona?

Never in a cart, because hazardous waste in the trash or recycling can cause fires. Riverside County's Department of Waste Resources runs household hazardous waste collection events each spring and fall for county residents, and permanent facilities are within driving distance, including Agua Mansa in Jurupa Valley on non-holiday Saturdays and the Lake Elsinore maintenance facility on the first Saturday of the month except January and December.
