Ready for that machine to go? Leave it at the curb and it can be gone today. Choose your equipment, see the exact price and book by 2pm for same-day pickup.
A new use for the same space, once the old machine is outside and gone.
Room for what comes next
Your space can have a new purpose.
A home office. Room for a guest. A little more floor to enjoy. When an old machine is in the way, a clear pickup plan makes the next step easier.
The room is changing.
Book the equipment you are ready to let go of, whether it is one exercise bike or several machines. See the total before making the plan.
A replacement is coming.
Check whether your retailer includes removal. If the old treadmill is still your responsibility, give it a pickup day of its own.
It is not making the move.
Settle the price online, arrange to have it outside, and follow the pickup through text updates and completion photos. One less thing to coordinate before the keys change hands.
Choose by the type of equipment. A brand name does not mean a different item, but a walking pad and a full treadmill do.
Treadmill, walking pad or commercial model?
Household treadmill includes folding home models with a tall console. Choose Walking pad for a compact under-desk model, or Commercial treadmill for a large gym machine. All equipment opens those choices.
An exercise bike, elliptical or rower
Spin, upright, recumbent and air bikes all use Exercise bike, including Peloton and other brands. One elliptical includes its connected base, handles and pedals. Rowing machines and Pilates reformers have their own choices.
Weights, racks and benches
Add together the pounds of loose dumbbells, kettlebells, plates and barbells. Free weights are priced in 10 lb units, rounding the combined weight up. For example, 25 lb uses three units. Add a stand, rack or bench separately if it is going too.

A machine can be too heavy or awkward for a solo move. Arrange suitable help for indoor carrying, stairs or any dismantling needed to reach the outdoor pickup spot.
A pickup day is not an exact arrival window. Tell us before booking about a shared loading area, restricted outdoor access or equipment whose size or setup you are unsure how to select.

You’re in the loop. Until it’s gone.
Confirmation when you book. A heads-up before arrival. Photos when it’s done.
Exercise equipment is named on no Cupertino or Recology page read for this city, so the machine has to be confirmed against the bulky item limits before it is set out or hauled.
City cost & eligibility
No published list or rate names an exercise machine. A treadmill would be judged against the three-item limit and the 50 pound and 6 foot single-item limits if it goes out on-call, and a self-hauled load at the transfer station is priced there, so confirm the item and the charge at 408.725.4020 first.
When & how
Call Recology at 408.725.4020 before an on-call collection, or confirm with the Recology South Bay transfer station on 408.588.7200 before a trip to 1675 Rogers Ave in San Jose.
Get it ready
Describe the machine, its weight and its longest part, drain it if it holds fluid, and keep it off the street and out of the sidewalk. A single item over 50 pounds or longer than 6 feet does not meet the published on-call set-out limits, so settle that before the pickup day.
Cupertino households get two on-call collections a year at no additional charge, limited to three bulky items per collection, and every collection has to be booked with Recology at least 24 hours ahead and placed on private property at the driveway entrance by 7 AM. Loose pieces must fit inside an area 8 feet long, 4 feet wide and 4 feet high, and each item must stay under 50 pounds and under 6 feet. Further collections cost more, extra garbage needs a purchased Extra Bag Tag, and nothing bulky goes to the curb before the pickup is scheduled.
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.
City of Cupertino Environmental Programs Division, Recology South Bay and Santa Clara County
Recology on-call curbside collection

Cost & conditions
No charge. Two on-call collections a year at no additional charge for residential customers, limited to three bulky items per collection and 250 pounds of construction and demolition material per collection. Further collections are available for a fee, and a multi-family building schedules through the property manager.
Arrange it
Book at least 24 hours ahead with Recology at 408.725.4020 and set the material out on private property at the driveway entrance by 7 AM on the collection day. Extra garbage needs a purchased Extra Bag Tag, while extra recycling and organics go out at no additional cost.
Hazardous waste such as paint, medication, solvents, pesticides and fertilizers is refused, and treated wood such as fence posts and deck material is refused with it. Loose pieces must fit inside an area 8 feet long, 4 feet wide and 4 feet high, and single items must stay under 50 pounds and under 6 feet.
Extra garbage, furniture, appliances, construction and demolition material, mattresses and box springs, monitors and televisions, yard waste, carpet and metal.
Cost & conditions
The station publishes no rate card, so the charge is quoted when the load is weighed, and payment is by credit or debit card only.
Arrange it
Drive to 1675 Rogers Ave in San Jose, open Monday through Friday 6 AM to 5 PM and Saturday 6 AM to 2 PM and closed Sunday, and enter through the Customer Parking entryway. Call 408.588.7200 with questions about a load.
The station accepts the materials on its published list and charges by weight, so an unusual load should be confirmed by phone first. Recology refuses televisions, computer monitors, toxic chemicals, hazardous waste, paint, tires, freezers and refrigerators in its debris boxes, which is a separate service from the transfer station.
Self-haul in Cupertino means the Recology South Bay transfer station at 1675 Rogers Ave in San Jose, open Monday through Friday 6 AM to 5 PM and Saturday 6 AM to 2 PM, where garbage, furniture, appliances, construction material, mattresses, monitors and televisions, yard waste and carpet are accepted at a charge quoted when the load is weighed. A larger renovation belongs in a Recology debris box, because Recology is the exclusive hauler of garbage in the city, and the city also lists five disposal facilities at Zanker, Newby Island, Guadalupe, Kirby Canyon and Schnitzer that take drop-offs at a cost by volume or weight, with a call advised first. Small loads can avoid the trip through the free quarterly drop-off at De Anza College.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Exercise equipment removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Cupertino.
How much does exercise equipment removal cost in Cupertino?+
A household treadmill is $159 as the first item and $85 additional. An elliptical is $159 first and $85 additional; an exercise bike is $119 first and $40 additional. Choose all your items to see the combined price. Loading, transportation and disposal are included, with any applicable sales tax shown before payment.
Can you pick up a treadmill or exercise bike today?+
Book by 2pm in the pickup address’s local time for same-day pickup. Available dates appear at checkout. Have the equipment outside and accessible according to your confirmation. You receive pickup updates and completion photos; we book a day rather than an exact appointment time.
Will you dismantle my treadmill or carry it out of the basement?+
Dropcurb pickup starts outside. Arrange indoor carrying, stairs and any dismantling needed to get your equipment out before pickup. Check the moving instructions for your exact model and arrange suitable help. We load and haul away the equipment from an accessible outdoor spot.
Which option covers a Peloton, spin bike or recumbent bike?+
Choose Exercise bike for one stationary bike, including spin, upright, recumbent and air bikes. Peloton and other brands use the same stationary-bike choice. A treadmill, walking pad and outdoor bicycle are different items, so select their matching options.
How do I book free weights, a weight rack or a bench?+
Enter the combined weight in pounds for your dumbbells, kettlebells, plates and barbells. Booking rounds that total up to the next 10 lb unit: 25 lb uses three units. Stands, racks and benches are separate items and do not include the loose weights. Add each one that is going.
Will Cupertino collect a treadmill?+
Exercise equipment is not named on the city or Recology pages read for this city, so call Recology at 408.725.4020 before the pickup day. An on-call collection is limited to three bulky items, and a single item must not weigh more than 50 pounds, must not be longer than 6 feet, and has to be manageable by one person. A machine that does not fit those limits needs a confirmed transfer station trip or another route.Official guidance
Who collects garbage in Cupertino?+
Recology South Bay is the exclusive hauler of garbage in Cupertino. The curbside program covers garbage, single-stream recycling and food and yard waste composting, and it also includes used cooking oil collection, battery and compact fluorescent bulb collection, household hazardous waste drop-off and on-call collection of bulky items. Residents choose a 96, 64, 32 or 20 gallon garbage cart, bills arrive once every three months, and the city Environmental Programs Division answers questions at 408.777.3236.Official guidance
Where do paint, chemicals, batteries and medications go in Cupertino?+
To the Santa Clara County Household Hazardous Waste Program, a free drop-off for County residents that takes paint, pool chemicals, pesticides, cleaning solvents, batteries, fluorescent and LED bulbs, propane, e-waste, medications and sharps. Every visit needs a free appointment first at 408.299.7300, the drop-off address is sent after the appointment is booked, and proof of residency is required. Household batteries alone can go in a sealed bag on top of the recycling cart on collection day.Official guidance
What can apartment residents in Cupertino use?+
Multi-family residents share the same curbside program through their property, and battery and light bulb collection may be available at the leasing office, so ask the property manager what is offered. An on-call bulky pickup for a multi-family building is scheduled through the property manager, and the county household hazardous waste appointment is open to the resident directly.Official guidance
