You want to know it is handled.
When the next collection does not fit your plans, choose a Dropcurb pickup day. Updates keep you informed, and completion photos show when the booked items are gone.
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.

A Fremont residence with individual curbside garbage service gets two free on-call bulky goods pickups each year. The city names large appliances, microwave ovens, furniture, televisions, stereos and computers as collected items, and recyclable items such as computers and televisions are salvaged as part of the service.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Two free bulky goods collections per year for a Fremont residence with individual curbside garbage service. Material that is larger than the set-out area, an extra collection and debris box service are charged separately.
When & how
Call Republic Services at 510-657-3500 to book an appointment at least two weeks before the collection date. Put the items out no more than 24 hours ahead and by 5:45 a.m. on the collection day.
Get it ready
Group the items in one 6 foot by 6 foot by 6 foot area in the street next to the curb, and keep them off the sidewalk, driveway and private property. Household trash, recyclables, organics, electronic waste and household batteries bagged in a clear sealed bag can go out with the same collection, but loose small items cannot, and nothing may exceed 150 pounds. No household hazardous material and no construction or demolition debris is accepted.
Furniture is named in the city's own list of collected bulky goods items, and broken furniture sits on the county bulky pickup list for Fremont. A couch or a table travels in the same 6 foot by 6 foot by 6 foot set-out area as the rest of the load.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Furniture is collected inside the two free bulky goods pickups that come with individual curbside garbage service. A piece heavier than 150 pounds, an extra collection and material beyond the set-out area are handled separately and charged.
When & how
Book the collection through Republic Services at 510-657-3500 at least two weeks ahead, then put the piece out in the street next to the curb no more than 24 hours before the appointment and by 5:45 a.m. on the collection day.
Get it ready
Keep the piece inside the 6 foot by 6 foot by 6 foot area and off the sidewalk, driveway and private property, and check the weight before the appointment because anything over 150 pounds is refused. Remove cushions and loose parts, and keep the piece out of the carts.
Mattresses and box springs go out with a bulky goods pickup, and the county guide adds a free drop-off route: up to four mattresses or box springs can be taken to the Fremont Recycling and Transfer Station at 41149 Boyce Road at no charge.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Mattresses and box springs are collected inside the two free bulky goods pickups, and up to four mattresses or box springs are accepted free at the Fremont Recycling and Transfer Station at 41149 Boyce Road. A mattress heavier than 150 pounds cannot go in the bulky collection.
When & how
Book a bulky appointment through Republic Services at 510-657-3500 at least two weeks ahead, or take up to four mattresses or box springs to the transfer station at 41149 Boyce Road, which is open to the public Monday through Saturday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
Get it ready
Keep the mattress dry and bag or wrap it so it stays intact, and keep it out of the carts and off the sidewalk. Take the frame or base off before a drop-off, and put the mattress with the rest of the bulky load inside the set-out area if it goes out for collection.
Large appliances are named in the city's bulky goods list, and the county bulky pickup list attaches the limit directly to dishwashers, freezers, major household appliances, stoves, ovens, washers and dryers: up to two appliances or large items per collection, none heavier than 150 pounds.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Appliances are collected inside the two free bulky goods pickups for a residence with individual curbside garbage service, limited to two appliances or large items per collection and 150 pounds per item. Extra collections and material beyond the set-out area are charged.
When & how
Call Republic Services at 510-657-3500 at least two weeks before the wanted collection date, then set the appliance out in the street next to the curb no more than 24 hours early and by 5:45 a.m. on the collection day.
Get it ready
Empty the appliance, tape or strap the doors closed, and remove cords that could catch during handling. Two appliances is the limit for one collection, so a washer and dryer pair uses the whole allowance, and a third unit has to wait for the next pickup or a paid extra collection.
Group everything in one 6 foot by 6 foot by 6 foot area in the street next to the curb and keep it off the sidewalk, driveway and private property. The pile can go out no more than 24 hours before the appointment and has to be out by 5:45 a.m. on the collection day. Bag, box or bundle the small material, since loose items are refused, and keep the load to two appliances or large items with nothing over 150 pounds.
Yard trimmings, plant debris and yard waste go out with the bulky collection, with trimmings no larger than 12 inches in diameter and 4 feet in length, bagged, boxed or tied in bundles. Palm fronds cannot be composted or chipped, so the city runs a separate pilot: an additional bulky pickup that does not count against the two annual collections, bundled and no larger than 6 feet by 6 feet by 6 feet and not out earlier than the night before, or a free self-haul to the transfer station under the City of Fremont Palm Frond Program with proof of residency. A load mixed with trash is charged the posted rates.
Request a debris box from Republic Services for all the material, or have the contractor haul it in its own vehicle to an approved recycling facility. Debris boxes come in sizes from 6 cubic yards to 40 cubic yards, and the hauler charges for the box and for material beyond the set-out allowance. A permitted project also has to keep the documentation, receipts and waste tracking records the city's construction recycling requirements call for.
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.
