Book by 2pm for same-day pickup.

Two views of the same room corner: a treadmill on the left, and a small desk and chair in its place on the right.
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.

Match the machine

The right choice covers the right equipment.

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.

Ready for pickup

Plan the move outside before pickup day.

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.

Your place. One easy pickup plan.

A house, a condo or an apartment. Choose an accessible outdoor spot that works for your property. You arrange the move outside; we take it from there.

Text us about your setup
  1. Check the route and the model.

    Measure doors and turns, and check the manufacturer’s moving instructions. Folding and moving methods vary by model. Have any required disassembly handled before pickup; we start outside.

  2. Book a day you can be ready.

    Choose from the available pickup dates before moving the machine out. Follow the readiness instructions in your confirmation. Book by 2pm at the pickup address for same-day pickup.

  3. Make the equipment easy to identify.

    Place the booked equipment in an accessible outdoor spot. Keep any separated parts together, add a photo and clear location notes to your order, and leave the approach clear.

Exercise equipment

Special rules apply

Exercise equipment is not named on the city's bulky list or the hauler's list, and the hauler's list is headed as not limited to the items shown, so a treadmill or weight machine has to be confirmed with EDCO before it is set out. The bulky service itself is free to single-family residences, so the question is acceptance rather than price.

City cost & eligibility
The bulky service is free to single-family residences inside the six collections and six item limit, and the only open question is whether EDCO accepts the machine, so call 562-531-3054 and describe it before setting it out.
When & how
Call EDCO at 562-531-3054 with the machine's description by 3:30 p.m. one day before the regular trash collection day, and if it is accepted have it at the curb with the carts by 7 a.m.
Get it ready
Describe the machine honestly when booking, since the hauler uses that description to decide whether a piece can be donated, repaired or salvaged, and take the machine apart far enough that the crew can lift the parts.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

Book the day before and be out by 7 a.m.

A bulky item pickup in Lakewood is booked with EDCO at 562-531-3054 by 3:30 p.m. one day before the regular trash collection day, and a single-family residence gets up to six of those collections a year with up to six items at each one. The items go to the curb alongside the carts by 7 a.m. on the collection day, and the hauler asks residents to describe what is being discarded so a reusable piece can go to a charity or a shelter instead of the landfill.

Cart placement for the weekly collection

Carts go to the curb in front of the home before 6 a.m. on the service day, in the street with the wheels against the curb and out of the way of traffic including bike lanes. The arrows on the lid point toward the street, carts stay at least two feet apart and at least three feet from parked cars, mailboxes, trees, telephone poles and other obstructions, and the lids close with nothing packed so tightly that it cannot fall out when the truck lifts the cart. Hot ashes, coals and fireworks never go in a cart.

What goes in each cart page with the cart set-out geometry, the cart sizes and contents, the hot ash rule and the extra cart terms

Six categories the bulky truck will not take

The city lists six refusals for a bulky item pickup: hazardous waste, old auto parts, machinery and other industrial items, oil, grease and other liquids, building materials such as bricks, lumber, roofing materials, dirt and broken concrete, and excessively large items such as whole tree trunks and large limbs. Electronics, fluorescent bulbs, medication and needles are refused as well, and each of those has its own route rather than a place in the pile.

The Christmas weeks run on their own rules

Bulky item pickup pauses for the Christmas tree recycling program after Christmas Day and resumes in January. During that program EDCO collects discarded trees on the regular trash day for one week after Christmas, with ornaments, tinsel and metal or plastic stands removed, wooden stands left in place, nothing bagged, and any tree over six feet cut in half. In the same week EDCO takes extra holiday trash on the regular pickup day at no charge, up to 10 standard size bags about two feet from the cart, with no call needed in advance.

For your Dropcurb pickup

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.

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Self-hauling in Lakewood means driving to the EDCO transfer station at 2755 California Avenue in Signal Hill, which takes large and oversized amounts of brick, used lumber and other material that will not fit the carts or ride the bulky pickup, plus large amounts of clean green waste that can be recycled into mulch and carries a dumping fee. Waste disposal runs Monday to Saturday from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and Sunday from 9 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., the redemption value buy-back runs Tuesday to Saturday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., and the household hazardous waste, electronic waste and sharps drop-off runs on designated Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. with no charge and with the 2026 and 2027 dates printed by the city. A mattress or other bulky item is free on the curbside route for a single-family residence, so the transfer station is the paid path for an apartment or condominium household or for oversize material. Construction is regulated separately: a covered project files a Debris Recovery Plan through GreenHalo, has to recycle or salvage at least 65 percent of its nonhazardous debris, and can only use EDCO or self-haul with its own vehicles, which needs the current vehicle registration, current vehicle insurance and a photo of the vehicle with the license plate visible.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

Exercise equipment removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Lakewood.

How much does exercise equipment removal cost in Lakewood?

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 Lakewood take a treadmill as a bulky item?

Exercise equipment is not named on the city's bulky list or the hauler's list, and the hauler's list is headed as not limited to the items shown, so call EDCO at 562-531-3054 and describe the machine before it goes out. If it is accepted it uses one of the six free bulky item collections a year, with up to six items at each, and the machine goes to the curb with the carts by 7 a.m. on the collection day.Official guidance

How do I schedule a bulky item pickup in Lakewood?

Call EDCO at 562-531-3054 by 3:30 p.m. one day before your regular trash collection day. A single-family residence gets up to six free collections a year with up to six items at each one, and the items go to the curb alongside the carts by 7 a.m. on the collection day. The city lists mattresses, water heaters, sofas and chairs as examples, and the hauler's list adds carpet, rugs, book shelves and appliances. Apartment and condominium residents do not qualify and go through the property manager instead.Official guidance
