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 in the metal category at the city's large recyclables drop-off, which accepts items made predominantly of metal, so a machine with a metal frame has a published free route. The curbside bulky waste list does not name exercise equipment, so a curbside pickup still has to be confirmed with the hauler.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Free at the Special Waste Collection Center within the one truck-size load a month allowed to Elk Grove residents, transported in a privately owned vehicle with no business markings; curbside pickup is part of the residential service but the bulky list does not name exercise equipment.
When & how
Take the machine to the Special Waste Collection Center on Disposal Lane during its Saturday through Wednesday hours, or call Republic Services at (916) 635-2500 to ask whether it can ride one of the bulky pickups.
Get it ready
Remove the tires, seat and grips from a bicycle frame or similar item as the city requires, keep the load to one truck-size load a month, and exclude any padded or cloth component because the center refuses items with cloth and fabric.
The Special Waste Collection Center is for Elk Grove residents only and is open Saturday through Wednesday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. A resident may bring one truck-size load a month of hard-to-recycle material at no additional charge, and the load has to arrive in a privately owned vehicle with no business markings, because business and contractor waste is refused. The recycling area and reuse room allow ten items a month for each household.
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.

How much does exercise equipment removal cost in Elk Grove?+
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 Elk Grove take a treadmill?+
A metal-framed machine has a published route: exercise equipment is named in the metal category at the Special Waste Collection Center, which is free to Elk Grove residents within one truck-size load a month. The curbside bulky list does not name exercise equipment, so call Republic Services at (916) 635-2500 if you would rather have it picked up.Official guidance
Can a contractor use the Elk Grove drop-off?+
No. The large recyclables drop-off is for Elk Grove residents only, business and contractor waste is refused, and material has to arrive in a privately owned vehicle with no business markings. A contractor working at an Elk Grove home has to arrange its own disposal, and the city's construction and demolition page sets out the CalGreen diversion requirement that applies to projects.Official guidance
