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.

Items too large to fit in a barrel, including furniture, mattresses and appliances, are collected at the curb three times a year at no charge.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Three free curbside large or bulky item collections per household each year. A fourth or later collection in the year is billed from the published rate schedule, which sets a service charge for the pickup and adds a per item charge for each item collected.
When & how
Call Burrtec customer service at 909-822-9739 to book the collection, and set the items at the curb on the confirmed day. The City publishes 909-822-6531 for a bulky item pickup as well.
Get it ready
An item qualifies when it is too large to fit in the trash barrel, which is the definition both the City and the hauler use. Keep the pile out of the three barrels, keep it clear of the recycling and green waste routes, and leave paint, oil, batteries, electronics and garden chemicals out of it, because those are household hazardous material rather than large items.
Call Burrtec to arrange a large or bulky item collection and put the items at the curb on the confirmed day. A household gets three of those collections a year at no charge, and a collection beyond the three is billed from the published rate schedule with a service charge and a per item charge.
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.

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.

How many free large item collections does a household get?+
Three per year at no charge under the City's residential program. A collection beyond the three is billed from the published rate schedule, which sets a service charge for the pickup and adds a per item charge for every item collected.Official guidance
Will Fontana take a treadmill or other exercise machine?+
Exercise equipment is not named in the City's examples or in the hauler's description of what the large item collection covers, so describe the machine when you call Burrtec and let the hauler confirm it before the machine goes to the curb.Official guidance
Who collects trash in Fontana?+
Burrtec Waste Industries, under contract with the City. The City's trash and recycling services page prints the hauler's Fontana office at 9820 Cherry Avenue and its number as 909-822-9739, and households get weekly trash, recycling and green waste collection on the day assigned to the address.Official guidance
Where do paint, motor oil, batteries and other hazardous items go?+
