City collection Appliances split by type.

The local disposal guide
Will the city take it?
Grand Junction collects refuse itself rather than through a franchise, but the city does not run a bulky item route: the Solid Waste Division handles weekly automated collection for residential addresses of fewer than eight units, and everything larger goes to Mesa County. That makes the county landfill and the county hazardous waste collection facility, both at 3071 US-50, the real destinations for a couch, a mattress, a refrigerator or a television. The landfill prices loose residential loads by the ton with a ten dollar minimum covering up to 380 pounds, charges twenty dollars for a mattress or box spring, takes demolition debris as approved special waste by the ton and refuses anything hazardous, liquid, universal or from outside the county. Refrigerated appliances and electronic waste are the exceptions that prove the rule: the landfill bans both, the hazardous waste facility charges ten dollars for a non-hazardous appliance, sixty-five dollars for a refrigerator, freezer or air conditioner, and eighty cents a pound for electronics, which Colorado has kept out of landfills since 2013. One rule catches people out on the way in, because an uncovered load is charged double.

Get it ready
Cover and secure the whole load before leaving home, using a tarp or cargo net, a blanket, carpet or a mattress, because loads cannot be tarped on or near the county campus and a shredded or loosely tucked cover does not count.

A mattress or box spring has its own published price at the Mesa County Landfill, so bedding goes out with a self-hauled load rather than through a city route.
City cost & eligibility
$20 per mattress or box spring at the Mesa County Landfill. Residential loads brought to the landfill, which publishes the item rate for bedding separately from the per ton charge. The load has to be covered and secured.
When & how

Appliances split by type. A non-hazardous appliance is ten dollars at the Mesa County hazardous waste collection facility, while a refrigerated unit costs sixty-five dollars there because the landfill prohibits appliances containing freon, propane or ammonia.
City cost & eligibility
From $10 per non-hazardous appliance at the Mesa County Hazardous Waste Collection Facility, with refrigerators, freezers and air conditioners charged 65 dollars each. Residential customers. The landfill prohibits appliances containing refrigerants, so a refrigerator, freezer or air conditioner has to go to the hazardous waste collection facility rather than to the landfill.
When & how
Take the appliance to the Mesa County Hazardous Waste Collection Facility at 3071 US-50, open Wednesday through Saturday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:15 p.m., and call 970-256-9543 with questions.
Get it ready
Empty the unit completely and remove all food from a refrigerator or freezer, because the facility requires that. Keep the appliance out of the city carts and out of a landfill load, since refrigerant appliances are prohibited there.
Electronic waste has been banned from Colorado landfills since July 1, 2013, so televisions, monitors, computers and the rest of the covered devices go to the Mesa County hazardous waste collection facility, where disposal is priced by weight.
City cost & eligibility
From $0.8 per pound of electronic waste at the Mesa County Hazardous Waste Collection Facility, with a one pound minimum charged on all waste streams. Residential customers.

Get it ready
Keep electronics out of all three city carts and out of a landfill load, remove personal data before handover, and bring batteries and light bulbs separately because they are accepted as hazardous waste rather than as curbside material.
Demolition debris is accepted at the Mesa County Landfill as approved special waste priced per ton. The load needs approval from the landfill's Regulatory Compliance Manager before it arrives.
City cost & eligibility
From $32 per ton of demolition debris at the Mesa County Landfill, which the fee schedule lists as approved special waste, with the ten dollar minimum covering up to 380 pounds and special handling fees of 50 dollars each, 100 dollars for 10 to 20 cubic yards and 200 dollars for larger loads. Loads approved in advance by the landfill's Regulatory Compliance Manager. The load has to be covered and secured, and contaminated soil, asbestos and other special streams carry their own published rates.
When & how
Call the landfill at 970-241-6846 or email web-solidwastemanagement@mesacounty.us for approval before hauling, then deliver during landfill hours, Monday through Friday 7:00 a.m. to 4:45 p.m. or Saturday 8:00 a.m. to 4:15 p.m.
Get it ready
Get the approval first, cover and secure the entire load before arriving, and keep asbestos, contaminated soil and liquid waste on their own approved routes rather than mixed into a general debris load.
Exercise equipment is not named in the city collection pages, the county landfill fee schedule or the hazardous waste list, so a treadmill or weight machine has to be confirmed before it is hauled.
City cost & eligibility
No published entry covers an exercise machine. If it is accepted it goes in a loose residential load at the landfill, which charges 32 dollars per ton with a ten dollar minimum covering up to 380 pounds, so confirm the item and the rate with the landfill at 970-241-6846 before loading.
When & how
Call the landfill before hauling, then deliver during its open hours, Monday through Friday 7:00 a.m. to 4:45 p.m. or Saturday 8:00 a.m. to 4:15 p.m.
Get it ready
Cover and secure the load, take the console, cord or battery pack off the machine so the electronics can be handled at the hazardous waste facility instead, and keep the frame out of the city carts.
Grand Junction has no city bulky item pickup. Large household loads go to the Mesa County Landfill as residential loose trash priced by the ton, with a minimum that covers a small load.
City cost & eligibility
From $10 for minimum disposal fee at the Mesa County Landfill covering up to 380 pounds, with commercial or residential loose trash charged 32 dollars per ton above that. Households hauling their own load. The load must be covered and secured before arrival or it is charged double, and hazardous waste, liquid waste, universal waste, refrigerant appliances and out-of-county waste are prohibited.
When & how
Deliver to the Mesa County Landfill at 3071 US-50 during its open hours, Monday through Friday 7:00 a.m. to 4:45 p.m. or Saturday 8:00 a.m. to 4:15 p.m.
Get it ready
Cover and secure the whole load at home, expecting a double charge if it is uncovered. Sort out mattresses and tires, which are priced per item, and keep electronics, batteries, light bulbs and appliances with refrigerants out of the load because the landfill refuses them and the hazardous waste facility takes them instead.
Yard waste has two routes: the city's new trash programme, which includes yard waste compost collection as it expands across the city, and the county's Organic Materials Composting Facility.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Included in the city trash service for addresses where the expanded programme has arrived, which the city describes as including automated recycling and yard waste compost collection and announces by mail as it grows to each area. The county composting facility is a separate route.
When & how
Put yard material in the organics container where the programme is active, or take it to the Mesa County Organic Materials Composting Facility, open Wednesday through Saturday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:15 p.m.
Get it ready
Keep yard material out of the recycling drop-off and out of a landfill load where the organics programme applies, and confirm the composting facility's current terms at 970-241-6846 before a first trip, because the county publishes its hours rather than its rates on the pages read.
Cover and secure the load before it leaves the driveway
The Mesa County Landfill requires every incoming load to be covered and secured, and the rule is enforced at the gate: an uncovered load is charged double, with no exceptions, and loads cannot be tarped on or near the county campus. A tarp or cargo net, a blanket, carpet or even a mattress counts as cover if it covers the entire load and is securely tied to the vehicle, while a shredded tarp or one loosely tucked into the vehicle does not count.
The city takes the small stuff, the county takes the rest
The City of Grand Junction's Solid Waste Division runs weekly automated refuse collection for residential addresses of fewer than eight units, and as its new programme expands it also adds automated recycling and yard waste compost collection to that service. It publishes no bulky item pickup. Anything larger, from furniture to a renovation load, goes to the county landfill at 3071 US-50, while electronics and appliances with refrigerants go to the county hazardous waste collection facility at the same address.
The landfill is open Monday through Friday from 7:00 a.m. to 4:45 p.m. and Saturday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:15 p.m., and the hazardous waste collection facility and the composting facility are open Wednesday through Saturday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:15 p.m. The county contact is 970-241-6846. On the city side, no trash or recycling is collected on a major holiday and a holiday falling on a weekday delays collection by one day for the rest of that week, and residents with a disability or over the age of 65 can ask for the operator to pull the container out and return it each week.
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 household or contractor with demolition, renovation or contaminated material that the landfill treats as approved special waste.
Cost & conditions
From $32 per ton of demolition debris at the Mesa County Landfill, with contaminated soil and non-friable asbestos at 60 dollars per ton, friable asbestos at 80 dollars per cubic yard and special handling fees of 50 dollars each, 100 dollars for 10 to 20 cubic yards and 200 dollars for larger loads.

City of Grand Junction Solid Waste Division and Mesa County Solid Waste Management
Use the city's weekly collection service
A residential address of fewer than eight units inside the city limits that needs weekly refuse collection, recycling and, where the expanded programme has arrived, yard waste compost collection.
Cost & conditions
From $16 for published 2026 monthly container rates, which the city lists as 16 dollars for a 48 gallon, 18 dollars for a 64 gallon and 26 dollars for a 96 gallon residential container, and 22 dollars for a 64 gallon or 35 dollars for a 96 gallon container under the trash and single stream recycling programme. Residential customers of fewer than eight units within the city limits. Rates are established by resolution and the division is run as a utility enterprise.
Arrange it
Set the containers out on the scheduled collection day, and note that a weekday holiday delays collection by one day for the rest of that week.
This service covers household refuse, recycling and, where the programme has expanded, yard waste, but it does not take bulky items, appliances, electronics or construction material, which go to the county facilities instead.
A household or contractor with more demolition material than one covered trailer load, or with material that needs staging on site.
Cost & conditions
A container company quotes its own price for the box, the haul and the disposal, and the landfill rate for the material still applies when the load is tipped, so confirm both figures before ordering.
Arrange it
Contact a licensed container or hauling company to place the box, have the material approved through the landfill if it is special waste, and have the container collected when the work is finished.
The landfill still requires approval for special waste and still charges double for an uncovered load, and hazardous material such as paint, solvents and asbestos does not belong in a general debris container.
