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 local disposal guide
Bulk junk removal in Lodi: start with the item’s collection rules, then choose the arrangement that fits.
Reviewed · Sources below
Lodi has no standing bulky item pickup, so a couch leaves on one of the two annual programs: the free curbside cleanup, which takes the equivalent of three 64 gallon carts of additional refuse, or the dollar dump day, where a voucher covers up to two cubic yards for a dollar.
No city page names a mattress, and there is no furniture acceptance outside the two annual cleanup programs, so the reliable routes are the state mattress program: the retailer take back that comes with a new delivery and the participating free drop off locations.
An ordinary appliance can go out with the annual cleanup or ride a dollar dump day load, but a refrigerator or air conditioner that still holds CFCs is refused at both, so the cooling group never inherits the general acceptance.
Refrigerators and air conditioners that still contain CFCs are excluded from both of the city's large item programs, and no city page publishes the route for one, so the unit has to be confirmed before it moves.
Lodi clears large household material on two annual programs rather than a weekly route: a free curbside cleanup that takes the equivalent of three 64 gallon carts of additional refuse, and a dollar dump day where a voucher covers up to two cubic yards for a dollar.
The handoff matters
The free curbside cleanup usually runs in April. Residents may set out additional refuse up to the equivalent of three 64 gallon carts, and everything has to be bagged, bundled or boxed with each container weighing under 50 pounds. Dirt, concrete, liquids, toxic or hazardous material, cathode ray tubes and large heavy metals such as auto bodies and engines are refused and should not go into the pile.
Special collection events page with the annual household hazardous waste and e-waste events, the curbside cleanup and the dollar dump day rules, limits and refusalsThe annual dollar dump day usually falls between March 15 and April 15. Single family customers inside the city limits may bring up to two cubic yards of refuse in a single load to the Waste Management transfer station at 1333 E Turner Road for a dollar, and the voucher has to be mailed to the residence beforehand. Commercial waste, dirt, concrete, tires, liquids, toxic or hazardous material, cathode ray tubes, large heavy metals and refrigerators or air conditioners that still have CFCs are refused.
Special collection events page with the annual household hazardous waste and e-waste events, the curbside cleanup and the dollar dump day rules, limits and refusalsTelevisions, computers, printers, phones, stereos and electrical cords have been barred from the trash since February 9, 2006, and household hazardous waste such as paint, solvents, batteries, used oil, antifreeze and pesticides is illegal to put in the trash, down storm drains or on the ground. Both large item programs refuse cathode ray tubes, so the routes are the annual e-waste event, the annual household hazardous waste event and the county consolidation facility in Stockton.

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.

Before you book
Bulk junk removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Lodi.
A trash bag is $59 as the first item and $10 additional. A filled household box is $59 as the first item. Add your actual items and quantities to see the combined price before booking. Loading, transportation and disposal are included; any applicable sales tax is shown before payment.
Book by 2pm in the pickup address’s local time for same-day pickup. Available dates appear at checkout. Have the booked bags and boxes outside and accessible according to your confirmation. You receive pickup updates and completion photos; the booking is for a day rather than an exact arrival time.
No. Count the filled bags or boxes using the matching choice. Books and media go in Filled household box; clothes, bedding and shoes go in Bag of clothes & bedding; packed toys have a Box of toys choice. Empty cardboard is separate, with individual empty boxes and bundles of 10 flattened boxes. Heavy, oversized or unusual contents need a photo review before booking.
Yes. Estimate how many trash bags the small household pile would fill, and bag or box as much as possible. Select furniture and other larger items separately. There is no extra charge just because the pile is loose. Send a photo first if the count or contents are unclear. A household Dumpster Bag choice does not accept construction debris.
Yes. Select the bags and boxes, then add each larger item using its own catalog choice. The booking shows one combined price for the selected items. Move everything to an accessible outdoor spot before pickup; indoor carrying and sorting are not included. Keep anything you want to retain apart from the booked items and identify what goes in your photos and notes.
Through one of the two annual programs rather than a weekly route. The free curbside cleanup, usually in April, takes additional refuse up to the equivalent of three 64 gallon carts if it is bagged, bundled or boxed and under 50 pounds per container, and the dollar dump day takes up to two cubic yards in a single load for a dollar with the voucher the city mails out.Official guidance
Start with the state program, because a retailer delivering a new mattress has to offer to take the old one back at no charge and participating drop off locations take a unit free. The city publishes no mattress rule of its own and no standing pickup, so the annual cleanup windows and the hauler are the local fallback to confirm at (209) 369-8274.Official guidance
Yes, on one of the two annual programs. A washer sized piece fits the free curbside cleanup when the load is bagged, bundled or boxed under 50 pounds per container, and a larger load can go to the dollar dump day with the voucher for up to two cubic yards. Cooling appliances are the exception, because refrigerators and air conditioners holding CFCs are refused.Official guidance
Both large item programs exclude refrigerators and air conditioners that still have CFCs, so the unit cannot ride the curbside cleanup or a dollar dump day load in that condition. The city publishes no replacement route for it, so confirm the arrangement and the refrigerant handling with Waste Management at (209) 369-8274.Official guidance
Only during the two annual programs. The free curbside cleanup usually runs in April and takes the equivalent of three 64 gallon carts of additional refuse that is bagged, bundled or boxed under 50 pounds per container, and the dollar dump day usually falls between March 15 and April 15 and takes up to two cubic yards for a dollar with the mailed voucher.Official guidance
The City of Lodi runs solid waste through an exclusive franchise and has partnered with Waste Management since 1988, so WM does the collection while the city sets the program and the rates. Public Works is at 221 W Pine Street and answers at (209) 333-6706, and Waste Management is at 1333 E Turner Road and answers at (209) 369-8274.Official guidance

The free curbside cleanup usually runs in April and accepts the equivalent of three 64 gallon carts of additional refuse, bagged, bundled or boxed with each container under 50 pounds, and the dollar dump day usually falls between March 15 and April 15 and takes up to two cubic yards in one load for a dollar with the voucher the city mails out.Official guidance
Dirt, concrete, liquids, toxic or hazardous material, cathode ray tubes and large heavy metals such as auto bodies and engines are refused at the curbside cleanup. The dollar dump day refuses those plus commercial waste and tires, and both programs refuse refrigerators and air conditioners that still contain CFCs.Official guidance
Garbage and organic waste are collected weekly, and recycling is collected on alternating weeks from the three cart system. The city publishes collection day and recycling week maps plus an annual collection calendar, and up to two additional recycling carts are available free on request.Official guidance
It cannot go out in either annual program, because both the cleanup and the dollar dump day refuse refrigerators and air conditioners that still hold CFCs, and no city page publishes a replacement route. Call Waste Management at (209) 369-8274 to confirm how the unit is handled, or use a licensed appliance recycler that captures the refrigerant.Official guidance
