A clear count. An exact price.

Count the bags and boxes, not everything inside.

A few simple choices turn a mixed pile into a clear booking. No need to estimate how much of a truck it might fill.

Filled bags and boxes

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 and containers

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.

Furniture and other larger items

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.

Bulky items and household junk

Accepted with preparation

Athens Services removes bulky items from a Norwalk address on request only, and it names major appliances and furniture among what it takes. The request goes through the hauler's bulky item form or customer service, and the hauler asks residents to consider reuse or donation first.

City cost & eligibility
The hauler publishes the bulky pickup as a request service without a pickup count or a price, so confirm the allowance and any charge with Athens at (888) 336-6100 or when the request is submitted.
When & how
Submit a bulky item request through the hauler's site or call (888) 336-6100, whose service hours are 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM Monday to Friday and 7:00 AM to 12:00 PM noon Saturday.
Get it ready
Keep bulky items and electronics out of the carts, and leave construction debris, automobile parts, loose building material and lumber, and hazardous waste out of the request, because Athens refuses all of them. Carts themselves go out by 6:00 am with the wheels against the curb, about one foot apart and at least three feet from vehicles or other objects.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

Carts go out by 6:00 am with room around them

Trash, organics and recycling carts are set out with the wheels against the curb by 6:00 am on the regular collection day, side by side about one foot apart and at least three feet from parked vehicles or other objects, with a clear path so the truck can reach them. Bulky items, construction debris, electronic waste and automotive parts are not cart material, and hazardous material is prohibited in the containers by state law.

Four categories are refused on a bulky request

Athens refuses automobile parts, construction and demolition debris including dirt, concrete, tile, drywall and rock, hazardous waste such as antifreeze, automotive fluids, cleaning products, compressed gas cylinders full or empty, fertilizers, herbicides, pesticides, paint, pharmaceuticals, pool chemicals and solvents, and loose or scattered building material and lumber. Each of those has its own route in Norwalk rather than a place in the pickup pile.

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.

Request a bulky item pickup from Athens

A household with a couch, a mattress, an appliance, a television or another large item that will not fit in the carts.

Cost & conditions
The hauler removes bulky items on request but publishes no pickup count and no price, so confirm both with Athens at (888) 336-6100 or when the request is submitted.
Arrange it
Submit the bulky item request through the hauler's site or call (888) 336-6100, whose hours are 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM Monday to Friday and 7:00 AM to 12:00 PM noon Saturday.

Automobile parts, construction and demolition debris, hazardous waste, and loose or scattered building material and lumber are refused, and the hauler asks residents to reuse or donate usable items first.

Open the Athens Norwalk page

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Norwalk's household routes are mostly collection and counter based. Athens removes bulky items including major appliances and furniture on request through its bulky item form or at (888) 336-6100, and it refuses construction and demolition debris, automobile parts, loose building material and lumber, and hazardous waste. The city answers the rest with drop-offs: used motor oil and filters are free from the curb by appointment at atyourdoor@wm.com or 800-449-7587, or at a certified collection center the city lists with addresses on Norwalk Boulevard, Pioneer Boulevard, Studebaker Road, Firestone Boulevard and Imperial Highway; old paint goes to Dunn-Edwards at 12125 Imperial Highway; household batteries go to four city locations during business hours and car batteries to AutoZone or O'Reilly; sharps come with a free mail-back container; and the remaining household chemicals and electronic waste go to the free Los Angeles County collection events or permanent centers. Mattresses follow a different order entirely, because a California retailer has to take the old unit back free when it delivers a new one, and Athens is the last resort. Carpet can be dropped at Carpet Manufacturers Warehouse in Commerce or Serv-Wel Disposal & Recycling in Montebello, and project debris needs a private container.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

Bulk junk removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Norwalk.

How much does bulk junk removal cost in Norwalk?

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.

Can you pick up bags of junk today?

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.

Do I count every object inside a bag or box?

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.

Can you pick up a small loose pile of household junk?

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.

Can I book bags, boxes and furniture together?

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.
