The desk you no longer use. The dresser that doesn’t fit the new layout. The chairs left over after a move. Choose the pieces you’re done with and give them a pickup day, without arranging a quote visit.
Different pieces. One clear total.
Add each furniture item and its quantity. See the combined price before you pay, with loading, transportation and disposal included.
Ready to have them gone?
Book by 2pm at your pickup address for same-day pickup, or choose a future date at checkout. You arrange the move outside before pickup.
Know when they’ve been collected.
Get a text when your hauler is on the way and photos when the pickup is done. With everything outside and accessible, you don’t need to stay home.
You don’t need to guess how much space your furniture fills in a truck. Match each piece to the catalog, then add its quantity. Your total updates as you go.
Tables and chairs
Choose the table, then add each chair separately. Coffee tables, side tables and dining tables have their own options. A large or substantially heavy table has a different choice.
Dressers and mirrors
Match the dresser’s overall size. Add a separate dresser mirror as its own item if it is leaving too. Empty drawers and keep the belongings you want before moving the dresser outside.
Desks and bookshelves
Choose by construction, not height alone. A basic desk is different from a heavy desk with a substantial body. A tall, lightweight bookcase can still be a standard bookshelf. Empty it first.

A piece of furniture is one of the city's own large item examples for a bulky item cleanup, so a couch leaves on a scheduled clean-up rather than at the curb unbooked. Single-family households get four free clean-ups in a rolling twelve-month period, spaced at least eight weeks apart.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Four free bulky item cleanups in a rolling twelve-month period for single-family residential customers, scheduled at least eight weeks apart. One clean-up covers one large item such as a piece of furniture or, on the hauler's reading of the same allowance, a bulky items pickup of up to three items. Extra clean-ups beyond the four are arranged for a fee.
When & how
Call Milpitas Sanitation at 408-988-4500 to book the clean-up, then have the item at the curb by 6:00 a.m. on the scheduled collection day.
Get it ready
Keep the item within the allowance the confirmation gives, keep cars and obstacles clear of the curb so the crew can reach it, and keep hazardous waste, auto parts and construction material out of a household load.
Single-family households in Milpitas get four free bulky item cleanups in a rolling twelve-month period, and the cleanups have to be spaced at least eight weeks apart, so the allowance is not four trips in one month. Book with Milpitas Sanitation at 408-988-4500, and expect the hauler to deliver the 1.5 cubic yard bags when that option is used. Extra clean-ups beyond the four are arranged for a fee.
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.
A single-family household with a mattress, a piece of furniture, an appliance, bags of loose clutter or a small pile of items that cannot go in the carts.
Cost & conditions
No charge. Four free bulky item cleanups per rolling twelve-month period for single-family residential customers, spaced at least eight weeks apart. Each clean-up covers one large item or two 1.5 cubic yard bags on the city page, and the hauler's page allows up to three bulky items or up to fourteen 32-gallon bags. Extra clean-ups and additional items carry a fee.
Arrange it
Call Milpitas Sanitation at 408-988-4500, have the bags delivered if that option is used, fill them at the curb up to twenty-four hours ahead, and put everything out by 6:00 a.m. on the scheduled day.
Four clean-ups a rolling twelve months with at least eight weeks between them, nothing over 75 pounds in a bag, wood under three feet, and no loose material outside the bags, treated wood, auto parts, dirt, sod, cement, rock, brick or hazardous waste.
Arrange a multi-family clean-up through the property
A resident of a multi-family complex whose property manager wants to arrange a bulky item pickup or clean-up for the building.
Cost & conditions
Multi-family complexes can arrange a bulky item pickup or clean-up for a fee, and the city states that all fees must be prepaid. The hauler does not publish the amount on the pages read, so the property manager confirms the price with Milpitas Sanitation at 408-988-4500.
Arrange it
The property manager orders the service from Milpitas Sanitation, prepays the fee, and coordinates where residents place their material.
This is a paid service rather than part of the single-family allowance, and the same item limits and refused materials apply to what the crew will take.
