No municipal rate covers an appliance in Johnstown.

The local disposal guide

Will the city
take it?

Johnstown contracts trash and recycling to Waste Connections and bills the service on the town utility account. Trash runs weekly between 7 a.m. and 6 p.m., with Monday pickup west of Colorado Boulevard and Wednesday east of it, recycling comes every other week on the same day, and the published rates are fixed for five years, from 12.50 a month for the small garbage and recycling bundle to 14.50 for the large one. Large items are handled two ways: Waste Connections takes a bulk item like furniture or carpet for a published charge per item with 48 hours notice, and Weld County issues a free large item disposal voucher good for one truck or trailer load up to a ton at the North Weld, Buffalo Ridge or Front Range landfill. Household chemicals, paint, batteries and propane go free to the county household hazardous waste facilities in Greeley or Dacono, and anything with Freon has to have the coolant professionally removed before a scrap yard will take it.

Weekly trash and biweekly recycling on the town utility bill

Accepted with preparation

Waste Connections collects trash weekly and recycling every other week under the town contract, and both are billed on the Johnstown utility statement at rates fixed for five years.

City cost & eligibility
From $14.5 for the published monthly large garbage and recycling bundle rate with both 96 gallon totes. The small bundle with a 64 gallon trash tote and a 96 gallon recycling tote is 12.50 a month, large garbage only is 12.50, small garbage only is 10.50, and an extra 96 gallon garbage tote is 4.00 a month. Extra bags and large item pickups are billed separately, and the town says the rates are fixed for five years with Waste Connections.
When & how
Trash runs weekly between 7 a.m. and 6 p.m., Monday for homes west of Colorado Boulevard and Wednesday for homes east of it, with recycling every other week on the same day. Everything slides one day in a holiday week.
Get it ready
Carts go curbside by 7 a.m. without blocking the sidewalk, leaving at least two feet between containers and no vehicle parked within ten feet. Handles face the house, nothing is bolted to the cart, trash stays below the lid, and trash and yard clippings have to be bagged and tied. Motor oil, tires, batteries, herbicides, pesticides, acids, dead animals, dirt, sod, brick, concrete, rock, hot ashes, coals, solvents, gas and liquid paint must not go in the cart.

Bulk item pickup and the county large item voucher

Accepted with preparation

Waste Connections takes a bulk item such as furniture or carpet for a published charge per item with 48 hours notice, and Weld County issues a free voucher for one landfill trip up to one ton for large items like mattresses, couches and tables.

City cost & eligibility
From $15 for the published bulk item pickup charge for one item. The town lists bulk item pick up at 15.00 per item and says to call Waste Connections customer service to schedule, with at least 48 hours notice and possibly additional charges. The county voucher is a separate free option: one truckload level with the bed rails or one trailer load, up to one ton, at the North Weld, Buffalo Ridge or Front Range landfill, with anything heavier billed by the landfill. The voucher program runs from March 2 to October 31, 2026.
When & how
Call Waste Connections at 303-288-2100 at least 48 hours before the collection day to schedule a bulk item, or collect a voucher from a county household hazardous waste facility or the county health department in Greeley and make one landfill trip during the voucher window.
Get it ready
Keep trash and yard waste out of the pile and out of the cart lid, because the hauler will not take an overloaded tote, and leave at least two feet around the containers with no vehicle parked within ten feet on service day. Prohibited material in the carts includes motor oil, tires, batteries, herbicides, pesticides, acids, dirt, sod, brick, concrete, rock, hot ashes and flammable liquids.

Couches, chairs and household furniture

Accepted with preparation

Furniture is one of the items the town tells residents to schedule as a bulk item pickup, and a couch or table is also named in the county large item voucher.

City cost & eligibility
From $15 for the published bulk item pickup charge for one item. Furniture and carpet are the examples the town gives for a scheduled bulk item pickup at 15.00 per item, and the county voucher names couches and tables among the large items a resident can take to a Weld County landfill free of charge on one trip of up to one ton.
When & how
Call Waste Connections at 303-288-2100 at least 48 hours ahead to schedule the pickup, or take a voucher load to the landfill during the voucher window.
Get it ready
Do not put furniture in or on top of the trash cart, because the hauler refuses an overloaded tote, and leave room around the containers on the service day with nothing parked within ten feet. Ask what the hauler counts as one item before setting out a sectional or a group of pieces.

Mattresses and box springs

Accepted with preparation

A mattress goes out as a scheduled bulk item at the published per item charge, and the county large item voucher names mattresses as an eligible free load.

City cost & eligibility
From $15 for the published bulk item pickup charge for one item. A mattress scheduled through Waste Connections is charged as a bulk item at 15.00 with 48 hours notice, and a mattress taken to a Weld County landfill with the free large item voucher costs nothing on the trip as long as the load stays within one truckload or trailer load of up to one ton.
When & how
Call 303-288-2100 at least 48 hours before the collection day, or use the county voucher for one landfill trip between March 2 and October 31, 2026.
Get it ready
Keep the mattress out of the cart and off the lid, keep it dry, and count it as one bulk item unless the hauler says otherwise. A mattress store that delivers a new mattress may also haul the old one away, which is the shortest route.

Appliances, scrap metal and refrigerant units

Special rules apply

The county names appliance and scrap metal services rather than a municipal appliance collection, and an appliance with Freon may need its coolant removed by a certified technician first.

City cost & eligibility
No municipal rate covers an appliance in Johnstown. Weld County lists TakeMyAppliance, Andersen's Sales and Salvage and Iron Ridge Auto and Metal as appliance disposal options and warns that an appliance containing Freon may need the coolant professionally removed by a certified technician before a scrap yard will accept it, so call the facility for its current terms and price.
When & how
Call the appliance or scrap service before loading a unit, and ask specifically about refrigerant removal for a refrigerator, freezer or air conditioner.
Get it ready
Drain and clean the unit, keep it out of the trash cart, and expect a refrigerant unit to require a certified coolant removal step before it can be scrapped. A working appliance is worth offering for reuse before it is scrapped.

Televisions, computers and electronics

Special rules apply

The county does not run a household electronics drop off and points residents at a state list of certified electronics recyclers, so the route is a recycler rather than a municipal counter.

City cost & eligibility
No town or county facility in the retrieved pages publishes an electronics rate, because Weld County routes electronic waste to certified electronics recyclers on the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment list and offers its program line at 970-400-2217 for help finding one, so the recycler sets the charge.
When & how
Find a certified electronics recycler through the state list or by calling the county program line at 970-400-2217, and ask about the drop off days before loading a television or monitor.
Get it ready
Keep electronics out of the trash cart, because the cart rules prohibit hazardous and prohibited waste and televisions and monitors are not accepted curbside. Wipe personal data before a computer or drive leaves your hands, and ask whether the recycler charges by the piece or by weight.

Construction material, dirt and sod

Special rules apply

Heavy material such as dirt, sod, brick, concrete or rock is prohibited in the cart, so a project load needs a landfill trip on the county voucher or a private roll off container.

City cost & eligibility
There is no municipal construction collection. The county large item voucher covers one truckload level with the bed rails or one trailer load of up to one ton at the North Weld, Buffalo Ridge or Front Range landfill at no charge between March 2 and October 31, 2026, and any additional weight or volume is billed to the resident at the landfill gate, so ask the landfill for its per ton figure or price a private roll off container for a larger project.
When & how
Collect a voucher from a county household hazardous waste facility or the county health department in Greeley, then make one trip during the voucher window, or order a private container before the project starts.
Get it ready
Keep dirt, sod, brick, concrete and rock out of the trash cart entirely, because the cart rules prohibit them. Ask the landfill what it accepts and what it charges per ton before a heavier load arrives, and keep clean material separated so it can be diverted rather than buried.

Tires

Not on the regular city route

Tires are prohibited in the trash cart and no town or county tire collection is published, so the route is a tire retailer or a paid landfill load.

City cost & eligibility
The town prohibits tires in the cart and publishes no tire collection, and the county household hazardous waste program does not list a tire drop off, so the charge comes from the tire retailer that takes the tire or from the landfill gate rate on a voucher load.
When & how
Ask the tire shop that sells or mounts tires about a take back, and do not set tires out for the weekly trash route.
Get it ready
Keep tires out of the cart and off the curb, because a prohibited item left in the tote can stop the whole cart from being emptied. Ask the landfill whether it takes tires and at what rate before adding them to a voucher load.

Exercise equipment

Special rules apply

Exercise equipment is not named by the town or the county, so it has to be confirmed with Waste Connections as a possible bulk item.

City cost & eligibility
No published rate covers an exercise machine and the town does not name the category, so call Waste Connections at 303-288-2100 to ask whether it will take the machine as a bulk item at the published per item charge and what it counts as one item before setting anything out.
When & how
Call 303-288-2100 at least 48 hours before the collection day, and only set the machine out once the hauler confirms it.
Get it ready
Take the machine down as far as it will come apart and keep the loose weights with it. A frame that fits the bulk item definition is the best case, so ask before booking and keep it out of the trash cart.

Containers go curbside by 7 a.m. on service day without blocking the sidewalk, with at least two feet between containers and no vehicle parked within ten feet.

A large item is scheduled, not set out

A couch, mattress, table or piece of carpet is a bulk item that has to be scheduled with Waste Connections at least 48 hours before the collection day, and the town publishes a per item charge for it. The alternative is the free Weld County large item voucher for one landfill trip of up to one ton, collected from a county hazardous waste facility or the county health department in Greeley.

Waste Connections for the Town of Johnstown, with Weld County running the household hazardous waste facilities and the large item voucher

Schedule a bulk item pickup with Waste Connections

A household with furniture, carpet, a mattress, a table or another oversized item that does not fit the cart.

Cost & conditions
From $15 for the published bulk item pickup charge for one item. The town lists a bulk item pickup charge of 15.00 per item, and it says customers should call Waste Connections to set up the service with at least 48 hours notice and that there may be additional charges. Anything that fits the cart or a bag is not a bulk item.
Arrange it
Call Waste Connections customer service at 303-288-2100 at least 48 hours before the collection day, then set the item out as the hauler directs.

The town publishes the per item charge but not an item definition, so ask what counts as one item before booking a sectional, a group of pieces or an exercise machine. Tires, motor oil, batteries, herbicides, pesticides, acids, dirt, sod, brick, concrete, rock, hot ashes and flammable liquids cannot go in the cart.

Waste Connections for the Town of Johnstown, with Weld County running the household hazardous waste facilities and the large item voucher

Use the free Weld County large item voucher

A household with a mattress, a couch, a table, an appliance sized item or a heavy load that it can drive to a landfill in one trip.

Cost & conditions
No charge. The voucher covers one truckload level with the bed rails or one trailer load up to one ton at no charge, and any additional weight or volume is billed to the resident at the landfill gate. The program runs from March 2 to October 31, 2026 and vouchers are limited.
Arrange it
Collect a voucher at the Greeley household hazardous waste facility at 1311 North 17th Avenue, the Dacono facility at 5500 Highway 52, or the Weld County Department of Public Health and Environment at 1555 N. 17th Ave. in Greeley, then take the load to the North Weld Landfill in Ault, the Buffalo Ridge Landfill in Keenesburg or the Front Range Landfill in Erie.

One trip only, within the weight and volume limit, and the resident pays anything over it. Landfill hours and acceptable items come from the landfill rather than the voucher page, so call ahead at 970-686-2800 for North Weld, 303-732-4379 for Buffalo Ridge or 303-637-9431 for Front Range.

Drop household hazardous waste at the county facility

A household with paint, cleaners, pesticides, motor oil, antifreeze, batteries, aerosol products or another product labeled danger, warning, caution or poisonous.

Cost & conditions
No charge. Weld County residents dispose of household hazardous products free at the Greeley or Dacono facility. Containers larger than five gallons are refused, plastic bags are refused because staff will not sort through them, every container has to be intact and not leaking, and the limit is 200 pounds per household per day of operation.
Arrange it
Drive to 1311 North 17th Avenue in Greeley on a Tuesday, Thursday or Saturday between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m., or to 5500 Highway 52 in Dacono on a Wednesday, Friday or Saturday between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m., and keep the load visible with nothing bagged.

Both facilities close on major holidays, including the adjacent Saturday when a holiday falls on a Friday or Monday, and the county publishes the full 2026 closure list. Business waste is by appointment only at 970-400-2217 and is not accepted on residential drop off days.

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Johnstown leaves most of the hauling to Waste Connections but gives residents two ways to move a large item. Waste Connections collects a scheduled bulk item such as furniture or carpet for a published charge per item with at least 48 hours notice, and Weld County issues a free large item disposal voucher for one truck or trailer load up to one ton at the North Weld Landfill in Ault, the Buffalo Ridge Landfill in Keenesburg or the Front Range Landfill in Erie, valid from March 2 to October 31, 2026. A mattress, couch or table is named in the voucher program, and anything heavier than the one ton limit is billed at the landfill gate. Household hazardous products such as paint, cleaners, pesticides, motor oil, antifreeze and batteries go free to the county facility at 1311 North 17th Avenue in Greeley on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. or at 5500 Highway 52 in Dacono on Wednesday, Friday and Saturday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., with no container over five gallons, nothing in plastic bags, and a 200 pound daily limit per household. Appliances go to a scrap or appliance service, and a unit with Freon may need its coolant professionally removed by a certified technician first. Electronics go to a certified electronics recycler on the state list, and tires are prohibited in the cart, so they go back to a tire retailer.

Do my items need to be outside when I book?

How much does a bulk item pickup cost in Johnstown?

The town publishes a bulk item pickup charge of 15.00 per item, scheduled through Waste Connections customer service at least 48 hours before the collection day, and the town notes there may be additional charges. Weld County also offers a free voucher for one landfill trip up to one ton for large items such as mattresses, couches and tables.Official guidance

How does the county large item voucher work?

Weld County issues a free voucher for one trip to the North Weld Landfill in Ault, the Buffalo Ridge Landfill in Keenesburg or the Front Range Landfill in Erie. It covers one truckload level with the bed rails or one trailer load up to one ton, with anything over that billed by the landfill, and it is valid from March 2 to October 31, 2026. Vouchers come from the Greeley or Dacono household hazardous waste facility or the county health department in Greeley.Official guidance

Will Johnstown pick up a couch?

Yes, as a scheduled bulk item through Waste Connections at the published charge per item with at least 48 hours notice, and the town lists furniture and carpet as the examples. A couch or table is also named in the Weld County large item voucher, which covers one free landfill trip of up to one ton during the voucher window.Official guidance

Where can I take a mattress in Johnstown?

Either schedule a bulk item pickup with Waste Connections at the published per item charge with 48 hours notice, or pick up a free Weld County large item voucher and take one load of up to one ton to the North Weld, Buffalo Ridge or Front Range landfill between March 2 and October 31, 2026. Mattresses are named in the voucher program.Official guidance

How do I get rid of a refrigerator in Johnstown?

Through an appliance or scrap metal service, because the county names TakeMyAppliance, Andersen's Sales and Salvage and Iron Ridge Auto and Metal rather than a municipal collection. An appliance containing Freon such as a refrigerator, freezer or air conditioner may require the coolant to be professionally removed by a certified technician before a scrap yard will take it, so call first.Official guidance

Where can I recycle a television in Johnstown?

At a certified electronics recycler rather than a town or county counter. Weld County points residents at the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment list of electronics recyclers and takes questions on its program line at 970-400-2217, and electronics should not go in the trash cart.Official guidance
