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 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
Bulk junk removal in Whittier: start with the item’s collection rules, then choose the arrangement that fits.
Reviewed · Sources below
The City's on call program takes bulky waste on request, four pickups a year of up to three items each, and Athens will not collect bulky items that were never scheduled.
The handoff matters
All containers go out by 6:00 a.m. on the collection day and no sooner than 6:00 p.m. the day before, because the City's designated collection day is the 24-hour period from 6:00 p.m. the day before to 6:00 p.m. the day of collection under WMC 8.12.140. Containers are placed in the street with lids closed or in the alley, wheels against the curb, about a foot apart and at least three feet from parked vehicles.
Container placement, collection hours, removal rules and roll-off rentalRemove every refuse and recycling container from the curb or alley once it is emptied. Except for the large 300-gallon alley containers, containers have to leave the public right-of-way and be stored on private property where they are not visible from the front or sides of the property.
Container placement, collection hours, removal rules and roll-off rentalTrash, recycling and green waste are collected as regularly scheduled except on New Year's Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day. Whenever one of those holidays falls on a weekday, the schedule is delayed one day for the remainder of that week.
Solid waste collection, on call bulky and e-waste pickups, containers and holiday scheduleUse 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.
