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

Sunnyvale single-family and multi-family residents can schedule an on-call curbside collection twice a year at no additional charge, requested through the city tool by selecting Bulky Item Collection, and the city names furniture, electronics and other bulky items as what it takes.

City cost & eligibility
No charge. Two on-call curbside collections a year at no additional charge for residents of single-family or multi-family homes. Extra garbage bags beyond the cart use a purchased tag.
When & how
Request the collection through the How to Get Rid of Anything tool and select Bulky Item Collection, then check the collection schedule in the same tool.
Get it ready
Keep bulky items out of the garbage, recycling and organics carts, and reserve the on-call collection for furniture, electronics and other bulky items the carts cannot take. Extra bagged garbage that does not fit the cart needs a purchased tag instead, on a bag no larger than 35 gallons and under 30 pounds.

Bulky items are requested, not left out

Sunnyvale takes furniture, electronics and other bulky items on an on-call curbside collection, and a household may schedule two of them a year at no additional charge. The request runs through the How to Get Rid of Anything tool, where you select Bulky Item Collection, and the same tool shows the collection schedule, holiday notices and recycling events.

Extra garbage uses a tag, and extra dumping weekends are free

A single-family resident with garbage that will not fit the cart buys a six dollar tag and puts one extra bag out per tag on the collection day. The bag must be 35 gallons or smaller and under 30 pounds, the tag goes on the front facing the street, and garbage in cardboard boxes is not collected. Separately, all Sunnyvale residents may take garbage, concrete, demolition material, tires and other non-hazardous loads to the SMaRT Station free during the spring and fall Extra Dumping Weekends.

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Sunnyvale has one curbside route and one gate. Furniture, electronics and other bulky items come off the curb on an on-call collection that single-family and multi-family residents can schedule twice a year at no additional charge through the How to Get Rid of Anything tool, and extra bagged garbage goes out with a six dollar tag on a bag no larger than 35 gallons and under 30 pounds. Everything self-hauled goes to the SMaRT Station at 301 Carl Road, open 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. seven days a week and closed on the three collection holidays, where household discards, appliances, furniture, green waste, construction and demolition debris, concrete, dirt, clean wood, asphalt, brick, pavers and tires are accepted with proof of residency and a covered load. Hazardous waste, liquids and treated wood are refused there and instead go to Santa Clara County's weekly hazardous waste drop-off events on Fridays and Saturdays, free to residents by appointment on 408-299-7300. Two extra dumping weekends a year let any Sunnyvale resident bring non-hazardous loads to the SMaRT Station free.
