The local disposal guide
Will the city take it?
Brighton does not run a curbside trash service. The city provides water, wastewater and storm drainage, and households arrange their own collection with a private hauler, while the city runs three programs of its own. Twice a year, in the spring and in the fall, residents can drop large items at the Trash Bash, which takes furniture, mattresses, appliances and carpet but refuses televisions, computers, refrigerators, freezers and home improvement debris. Electronics go to the fall Eco Event or to a year round recycling site, and household chemicals go to the county that serves the address.

Colorado bans residential and business electronics from landfill disposal. Brighton refuses televisions, computers and office electrical equipment at the Trash Bash and runs the fall Eco Event for electronics, with year round recycling sites named for the rest of the year.
City cost & eligibility
From $30 for minimum fee per television, monitor or other large electronic item at the Brighton Eco Event, payable by cash or check only, while smaller electronics such as laptops, cell phones, servers and anything with a motherboard are free. The Eco Event is a City of Brighton event open to residents, and the year round drop-off sites named by the city set their own terms, so confirm the fee for any device before loading.
When & how
The Eco Event runs Saturday September 19, 2026 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Eagle View Adult Center, 1150 Prairie Center Parkway. Electronic waste can also be recycled year round at Veolia in Henderson or the SustainAbility Hard-To-Recycle Center in Broomfield.
Get it ready
Wipe personal data before handover, keep electronics out of the trash because Colorado bans them from landfill, leave major appliances at home since the Eco Event refuses them, and pay by cash or check at the event because cards are not accepted.
Concrete and home improvement project debris are refused at the Trash Bash, and the city tells residents those items need special preparations at the landfill through their home trash removal company.
City cost & eligibility
No city rate is published for project debris. Concrete and home improvement material are refused at the Trash Bash and routed to the home trash removal company and the landfill, so confirm the route, any special preparation and the price with that company or the receiving site.
When & how
No city drop-off day for this material. Arrange collection or a container through the home trash hauler before the work produces debris.
Get it ready
Keep concrete, project debris and grass clippings out of the Trash Bash load, because the city refuses them, and keep liquids, paint, motor oil and chemicals out as well since those go to the county chemical programme.
Exercise equipment is not named on the Trash Bash lists, although furniture, cabinets, bicycles and lawn and yard equipment are, so a machine has to be confirmed before it is hauled across town.
City cost & eligibility
A machine that the city treated as furniture or yard equipment would ride the free Trash Bash drop-off, but the published list does not name exercise equipment, so call Public Works at 303-655-2087 and confirm the item before loading the truck.
When & how
Confirm first, then take the machine to 325 North Kuner Rd on one of the four 2026 drop-off days between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. if it is accepted.
Get it ready
Break the machine down as far as it will come apart, remove any console or battery pack so the electronics are handled separately, and keep the pieces out of the trash because the city does not run curbside pickup.
The Trash Bash runs Friday April 24 and Saturday April 25 and Friday September 18 and Saturday September 19 in 2026, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day, at the Brighton Wastewater Treatment Facility, 325 North Kuner Rd, using the Brighton Street entrance. Bring a city water bill or other proof of residence plus identification, because the programme is for City of Brighton residents and commercial or industrial loads are turned away.
Containerize small loose items so the weight is reasonable for the container, cut carpet up, leave branches unbundled because twine and rope foul the grinder, and keep lumber nail free and shorter than eight feet. Tires are accepted for a per tire fee with no oversized tires, and a donation is suggested to help defray the cost of the service.
Household trash, commercial waste, concrete and home improvement project debris, grass clippings, televisions, computers, air conditioners, freezers, microwaves, refrigerators, office electrical equipment, car bodies, smoke detectors and sealed containers with unknown contents are refused. Liquids, paint, motor oil, pesticides and chemicals are refused too, because those go to the county chemical waste programme.
The Eco Event runs Saturday September 19, 2026 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Eagle View Adult Center, 1150 Prairie Center Parkway. Electronics and electrical equipment including laptops, cell phones, servers, towers, cords and anything with a motherboard are free to drop, while televisions, monitors and other large electronics carry a minimum fee payable by cash or check only. Paper shredding is offered with a suggested donation, and no major appliances are accepted.
Colorado law bans residential and business electronics from landfill disposal and requires recycling, so devices should not go in the trash anywhere in Brighton. The city points to its fall Eco Event and to year round electronic recycling at Veolia in Henderson or the SustainAbility Hard-To-Recycle Center in Broomfield.
The city offers a Trash Bash pick-up service for the elderly or residents with special needs on Tuesday April 21 and Wednesday April 22 and Tuesday September 15 and Wednesday September 16 in 2026. Request the pickup at 303-655-2087.
