City collection Manteca does not run a standing curbside bulky item pickup. The city routes couches, furniture and similar large pieces through the District Community Clean-Up Event, which each district gets once a quarter and which is free to residents. No charge. Manteca residents at their own district's quarterly clean-up event, which the city states is free of charge. The city publishes no separate bulky item collection rate, and it publishes no pickup for a large piece outside the event.
City collection A mattress is one of the items the city names for the District Community Clean-Up Event, and the same city page's Programs list also advertises a Mattress Recycling programme, so bedding leaves a Manteca property either at the quarterly event or through the recycling programme rather than at the curb. No charge. Manteca residents at their own district's quarterly clean-up event, which the city states is free of charge, and the city's Programs list also advertises a Mattress Recycling programme whose terms it does not publish on the pages retained here, so confirm the programme details and any separate charge with the Solid Waste Division on (209) 456-8440.
City collection Appliances are on the accepted example list for the District Community Clean-Up Event, so a large appliance leaves a property at the quarterly event. No charge. Manteca residents at their own district's quarterly clean-up event, free of charge as the city states. The city publishes no separate appliance collection rate.
City collection Manteca collects residential trash weekly in the city brown cart, with a small yearly allowance of extra-garbage stickers and a free cleanup bin as the day to day overflow routes. No charge. Manteca residential accounts. The city states that the extra-garbage stickers are collected at no extra charge inside the three sticker yearly allowance, and that the two cubic yard cleanup bin is delivered free of charge for 24 hours.
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.

The local disposal guide
Will the city take it?
Manteca runs its own residential collection and puts the large household items through a quarterly event rather than a standing curbside rule. Trash is collected weekly in the city brown cart, and carts go to the gutter three feet from other carts and five feet from parked vehicles, out the night before or by 5 a.m. on the collection day. Day to day extras are handled with a small allowance of extra-garbage stickers, and once a year a household can have a two cubic yard cleanup bin delivered free for a day. For anything larger, each of the city districts gets its own District Community Clean-Up Event once a quarter, free to residents who bring a utility bill and identification. That event is where a couch, a mattress, an appliance, electronic waste, green waste and up to nine tires leave a property. Household chemicals do not go to the event and do not go in the cart: they go to the San Joaquin County hazardous waste facility behind the Stockton Airport, which is free to county residents.
Manteca does not run a standing curbside bulky item pickup. The city routes couches, furniture and similar large pieces through the District Community Clean-Up Event, which each district gets once a quarter and which is free to residents.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Manteca residents at their own district's quarterly clean-up event, which the city states is free of charge. The city publishes no separate bulky item collection rate, and it publishes no pickup for a large piece outside the event.
When & how
Check the city district map and the Resource Lookup Tool to find your district, then take the piece to that district's quarterly event. Bring a utility bill and government issued identification, and expect to unload the vehicle yourself.
Get it ready
Load the piece so you can unload it from your own vehicle, because residents are responsible for removing items. One truck and trailer is allowed and the trailer may be no longer than eight feet, with commercial vehicles and moving trucks turned away. Keep household chemicals, oil, paint, sharps and fluorescent tubes out of the load entirely.
A mattress is one of the items the city names for the District Community Clean-Up Event, and the same city page's Programs list also advertises a Mattress Recycling programme, so bedding leaves a Manteca property either at the quarterly event or through the recycling programme rather than at the curb.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Manteca residents at their own district's quarterly clean-up event, which the city states is free of charge, and the city's Programs list also advertises a Mattress Recycling programme whose terms it does not publish on the pages retained here, so confirm the programme details and any separate charge with the Solid Waste Division on (209) 456-8440.
When & how
Take the mattress to your district's quarterly event within the event hours. The city does not publish a set-out rule for bedding, so it does not go out with the weekly cart.
Get it ready
Bring the piece in your own vehicle, keep it dry, and count it inside the one truck and trailer allowance with the trailer no longer than eight feet. Keep the load clear of hazardous waste, oil, paint, sharps and fluorescent tubes, which the event refuses.
Appliances are on the accepted example list for the District Community Clean-Up Event, so a large appliance leaves a property at the quarterly event.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Manteca residents at their own district's quarterly clean-up event, free of charge as the city states. The city publishes no separate appliance collection rate.
When & how
Take the unit to your district's quarterly event. Because the city publishes no curbside appliance pickup, keep the unit out of the weekly cart and off the curb.
Get it ready
Empty the unit before it is loaded and keep it inside the one truck and trailer allowance. Ask the Solid Waste Division on (209) 456-8440 about a unit that holds refrigerant and about a unit that still contains food waste, because the event page names appliances generally without setting a separate handling condition for cooling units.
The District Community Clean-Up Event accepts electronic waste, but the city publishes the stream by that name without listing the individual devices, so a television or a monitor is confirmed with the division before it is loaded.
City cost & eligibility
The event is free of charge, but the city does not publish a device level list for the electronic waste stream it accepts there, so confirm the specific device with the Solid Waste Division on (209) 456-8440 before you load it.
When & how
Take the device to your district's quarterly event once the division has confirmed it. Keep it out of the weekly cart, which is for household garbage.
Get it ready
Wipe personal data before the device leaves your hands, remove and tape any loose battery, and bring the device in your own vehicle inside the one truck and trailer allowance.
The District Community Clean-Up Event takes up to nine tires per household, which is the only tire route the city publishes for residents.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Manteca residents at their own district's quarterly clean-up event, free of charge, with a published limit of up to nine tires per household.
When & how
Take the tires to your district's quarterly event and count them inside the nine tire household limit.
Get it ready
Keep the load to nine tires or fewer, bring them in your own vehicle, and keep them out of the weekly garbage cart entirely because the city publishes no curbside tire collection.
Manteca publishes no construction or renovation route for households. The free cleanup bin is for everyday household garbage and refuses concrete and dirt, and the clean-up event's accepted list does not name project material.
City cost & eligibility
The city publishes no municipal route or rate for construction, demolition or renovation material, and the cleanup bin it does provide refuses concrete, dirt and auto parts, so a project load is arranged privately with a hauler or a container service rather than through a city programme.
When & how
Arrange the load privately. Do not put project material in the weekly cart, in the cleanup bin or in the clean-up event load.
Get it ready
Keep concrete, dirt and auto parts out of the cleanup bin, which the city states will not accept them, and keep project material away from the event load, which is limited to the accepted example list.
Manteca names no exercise machine in the curbside rules or in the clean-up event accepted list, so a treadmill or weight machine is confirmed with the division before it is moved.
City cost & eligibility
No exercise equipment route or rate is published, so confirm whether the machine can go to the quarterly clean-up event or has to be handled privately with the Solid Waste Division on (209) 456-8440.
When & how
Call the Solid Waste Division first, then either take the machine to your district's quarterly event if it is accepted or arrange a private route.
Get it ready
Fold or dismantle the machine where the maker allows it, keep the parts together, and do not set it out at the curb because the city publishes no curbside pickup for it.
Household chemicals stay out of the cart and out of the clean-up event load. Manteca routes them to the San Joaquin County hazardous waste facility behind the Stockton Airport, which is free to county residents.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. San Joaquin County residents, free of charge as the county states, at the facility on Bridgeford Road behind the Stockton Airport.
When & how
Take paint, batteries, fluorescent tubes, pool chemicals and pesticides to the county facility, open Thursday through Sunday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sharps follow a separate route: the Manteca Senior Center on Cherry Lane takes them in one quart red sharps containers during its office hours.
Get it ready
Keep products in their original labelled containers where possible, never put them in the weekly cart or in the clean-up event load, and bring sharps only in a one quart red sharps container, which the Senior Center replaces free of charge.
Manteca collects residential trash weekly in the city brown cart, with a small yearly allowance of extra-garbage stickers and a free cleanup bin as the day to day overflow routes.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Manteca residential accounts. The city states that the extra-garbage stickers are collected at no extra charge inside the three sticker yearly allowance, and that the two cubic yard cleanup bin is delivered free of charge for 24 hours.
When & how
Put the cart in the gutter the night before or by 5 a.m. on the weekly collection day, three feet from other carts and five feet from parked vehicles, and bring it in after collection. For an extra bag, put a city sticker on it beside the cart on the regular collection day. The cleanup bin is a separate free delivery that stands for 24 hours.
Get it ready
Keep the cart three feet from other carts and five feet from parked vehicles and remove it from the curb after collection, because the city cites a court appearance and fines for leaving it out. Put the sticker on an extra bag of ordinary garbage rather than leaving bags loose, and fill the cleanup bin with everyday household garbage only, because concrete, dirt, auto parts and hazardous material are refused.
Residential trash is collected weekly in the city brown cart. Put the cart in the gutter the night before or by 5 a.m. on the collection day, three feet from other carts and five feet from parked vehicles, and bring it in after collection so it is not left at the curb.
Each district gets its own District Community Clean-Up Event once a quarter and the event is free to residents. Bring a utility bill and government issued identification, arrive in one truck or a truck with a trailer no longer than eight feet, and unload the items yourself. Bulky items such as couches, furniture and appliances, household trash, electronic waste, mattresses, green waste and up to nine tires are the accepted examples; hazardous waste, oil, paint, sharps and fluorescent tubes are refused.
Paint, batteries, fluorescent tubes, pool chemicals and pesticides are taken to the San Joaquin County hazardous waste facility on Bridgeford Road behind the Stockton Airport, open Thursday through Sunday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. and free to county residents. Sharps go to the Manteca Senior Center on Cherry Lane in a one quart red container.
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.

Cost & conditions
No charge. Manteca residents at their own district's quarterly event, which the city states is free of charge on proof of residency with a utility bill and identification.

A Manteca household with more everyday household garbage than the cart holds.

Household material only. The clean-up event and the cleanup bin both refuse these items, and unused sharps have their own route at the Manteca Senior Center on Cherry Lane.
Self hauling in Manteca runs through the city's own programmes rather than a transfer station. The quarterly District Community Clean-Up Event is the route for anything large: a couch, furniture, appliances, mattresses, electronic waste, green waste and up to nine tires per household go there free, with a utility bill and identification at the gate and the resident doing the unloading from one truck or a truck with a trailer of no more than eight feet. Day to day overflow is handled at home instead, with a sticker on an extra bag inside the three sticker yearly allowance, or with the free two cubic yard cleanup bin that stands for 24 hours and takes everyday household garbage only. Household chemicals never travel with any of that: paint, batteries, fluorescent tubes, pool chemicals and pesticides go to the San Joaquin County facility behind the Stockton Airport, free to county residents, and used sharps go to the Manteca Senior Center on Cherry Lane in a one quart red container. Construction and renovation material has no municipal route at all, so a project load is arranged privately.
