You have decided what is going. Now give those bags and boxes a pickup day, with a price you can see before anyone arrives.
Book the unwanted bags and boxes left after packing. Choose an available pickup day before you hand back the keys, and arrange to have them outside.
You do not need a whole house of junk. Select the bags, boxes and larger items you actually have. Your combined price is shown online.
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 clear count. An exact price.
A few simple choices turn a mixed pile into a clear booking. No need to estimate how much of a truck it might fill.
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 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.
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.
First item / additional item
The highest first-item price applies once. Every remaining item uses its additional-item price. Loading, transportation and disposal are included. Applicable sales tax is shown before payment.

Furniture is one of the two item types the free curbside bulky collection takes, and each collection lets a household set out two such items or up to twelve 32-gallon bags of bagged, boxed or bundled material.
Gilroy households with cart service get two free curbside bulky item collections every calendar year. Each collection is either up to twelve 32-gallon bags of bagged, boxed or bundled garbage, roughly two cubic yards, or two items such as appliances, furniture or electronic waste.
The handoff matters
Book the collection at 408.842.3358 and choose one option. Option one is up to twelve 32-gallon bags of garbage, all bagged, boxed or bundled with nothing loose, which is about two cubic yards or a pile three feet by six feet by three feet. Option two is two items such as appliances, furniture or electronic waste, with a mattress and box spring set counting as one item, and each item has to be under six feet long, under 200 pounds and manageable by one person.
Gilroy bulky items page: two free curbside collections a year, the two collection options, the item limits, the refusal list and the scheduling and forfeiture rulesBulky items have to be at the curb by 6 a.m. on the scheduled collection day, and a household that is not out before the truck arrives forfeits that free collection. A cancellation has to reach customer service at least one business day before the appointment, unused collections do not roll over into the next calendar year, the account must be current rather than past due, and the programme covers residential customers inside the city of Gilroy, with multi-family properties arranging collections through the owner or manager.

Every other battery, along with fluorescent tubes, mercury thermostats and thermometers, and the electronics that California law bars from the trash, goes to the Santa Clara County household hazardous waste programme instead, which is appointment-only and free for city residents at 408-299-7300.

The city's own pages are the place to start for what is hazardous in the first place: paint, pesticides, cleaners, fuels, batteries, bulbs and electronics are all in that category.
