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.

Mattresses and box springs

Accepted with preparation

A mattress goes on the city large item pickup, at the October Hard to Recycle event, or on a free landfill day as part of the city's furniture route.

City cost & eligibility
From $60 for the published large item collection fee for one or two items. A large item pickup costs $60 for one or two items and $75 for three items, which is the maximum, with the fee applied to the utility bill.

When & how
Call Waste Services at 303-651-8416 to book a large item pickup for your regular collection day, reserve a slot at the October Hard to Recycle event, or take the mattress to a free landfill day.
Get it ready
Keep the pickup to three items at most, leave the item inside until the Saturday before the scheduled collection because the municipal code prohibits setting special collection items out earlier, and keep the load covered and secured at the landfill.

Furniture that does not fit the trash cart goes on a city large item pickup, and the city's furniture route also reaches the free landfill days.

City cost & eligibility
From $60 for the published large item collection fee for one or two items. A large item pickup costs $60 for one or two items and $75 for three items, which is the maximum, charged to the utility bill.

When & how
Book the pickup with Waste Services at 303-651-8416 for your regular collection day, or take the piece to a free landfill day on June 13 or August 8, 2026 between 7 a.m. and 2 p.m.

Household appliances

Accepted with preparation

Household appliances are refused on the large item route but the city says they may be disposed of free of charge at the Longmont Recycling Center.

City cost & eligibility
No charge. The city states that household appliances such as washers, dryers, dishwashers and stoves may be disposed of free of charge at the Longmont Recycling Center, which also accepts scrap metal. Refrigerators, freezers and air conditioners contain hazardous gases and are refused on the large item route and at the free landfill days, with Bazor Recycling at 260 South Sunset St in Longmont listed as the local option for a fee.
When & how
Take the appliance to the Longmont Recycling Center at 140 Martin St., open Monday through Saturday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. for the yard waste, compost, Styrofoam and metal areas, with the utility bill and identification needed for entry.
Get it ready
Empty the appliance before the trip, keep it off the large item pickup and the trash cart because both refuse appliances, and handle a refrigerator, freezer or air conditioner separately because the refrigerant makes it a different stream.

Televisions, computers and electronics

Accepted with preparation

City cost & eligibility
No charge. At the Hard to Recycle event the first television or screen is free, additional screens cost $1.00 per screen inch for a flat screen and $3.00 per inch for a CRT, and desktop and laptop computers, cell phones, cameras, game consoles, stereo equipment, cables and wires are free, while corded items and small appliances are free for the first 40 pounds and $0.40 per pound after that.
When & how
Reserve a slot for the Hard to Recycle event through Green Girl Recycling and take the device to 1801 Boston Ave. during the October 5 to 17, 2026 window.
Get it ready
Erase personal data before the device leaves your hands, keep electronics out of the trash cart and off the large item pickup because both refuse them, and check the item against the event's list because items such as light bulbs and chemicals belong at the Boulder County facility instead.

Construction and demolition material

Not on the regular city route

Construction and remodeling debris is refused on the trash cart, the large item pickup, the rent-a-dumpster and the free landfill days.

City cost & eligibility
The city publishes no construction rate because none of its routes take the material. A project load needs a private hauler or container company, or a direct arrangement with the receiving landfill, so confirm the container size, the material rules and the price before work starts.
When & how
Arrange a private hauler or container company before the project produces debris, because the city routes exclude construction material and the residential dumpster refuses concrete, bricks, shingles, drywall, plaster, tile and lumber over three feet.
Get it ready
Keep construction debris out of the trash cart, the large item pile and the dumpster, keep paint, liquids and hazardous waste out of any container, and confirm the receiving site's accepted material before the load leaves.

Exercise equipment

Special rules apply

Exercise equipment is not named on any city list, so the machine has to be confirmed with Waste Services before it is booked as a large item.

City cost & eligibility
No city page names an exercise machine or publishes a price for one, so confirm with Waste Services at 303-651-8416 that the machine is accepted as one of the three large items, and expect the published large item fee if it is.
When & how
Call Waste Services before booking, and use the large item pickup only once the machine is confirmed.
Get it ready
Fold or tie down the deck and handles, remove any console or battery pack so it can be handled separately, and keep the machine inside the three item limit if it is accepted.

City cost & eligibility
From $60 for the published large item collection fee for one or two items. A large item pickup costs $60 for one or two items and $75 for three items, which is the maximum, charged to the utility bill.

When & how

Right item.
Right place.

Large item collection with the item limit, the published fees and the refused materials

The free landfill days take one level pickup load

Twice a year, on June 13 and August 8 in 2026 from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m., a Longmont resident can bring one level pickup truck load of most large items and debris to Front Range Landfill in Erie at no charge, with a current city utility bill and identification needed at the gate. The landfill does not accept appliances, electronics or tires, oversize and additional loads are billed, and every load has to be covered and secured.

Where and when the carts go out

Carts go out by 7 a.m. on the collection day, in the street in front of the curb near the corner of the driveway with the handle side facing the home, or on the designated side of the alley for alley customers, with the lid arrows facing the street or alley and nothing blocking the sidewalk. Keep at least 3 1/2 feet from objects on either side and a minimum of 2 feet between the trash cart and the recycling or composting cart, and lids have to close completely.

Have a private hauler take a construction or bulky load

A household or contractor with construction debris or a load the city routes refuse.

Cost & conditions
The city publishes no rate for private hauling or containers, so a hauler or container company quotes its own price; confirm the material rules and the receiving site before booking.
Arrange it
Contact one of the private haulers the city lists, such as One Way Disposal, Republic Services, Waste Connections, Western Disposal or 1-800-GOT-JUNK, and confirm where the load is taken.

Nothing a Colorado landfill refuses can go in the load, so electronics, appliances holding refrigerant, tires, liquids and hazardous waste have to be separated first.

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Longmont runs the collection itself, so the city routes come first. A large item pickup covers up to three items on your regular collection day for the published fee, two free landfill days a year take one level pickup truck load of large items and debris to Front Range Landfill in Erie with proof of residency, and a four cubic yard residential dumpster rents for a week between February and October with its own refusal list. Everything the large item route refuses has a published destination: household appliances are free at the Longmont Recycling Center, which also takes scrap metal, oil and batteries, large electronics and the first screen or mattress are handled at the October Hard to Recycle event, and household chemicals go to the Boulder County hazardous waste facility in Boulder free of charge to Longmont residents, with a city chemical drop-off day each August. Construction and remodeling debris has no city route at all, so a project load needs a private hauler or a container company.

1830 County Road 5, Erie, CO

Large household items and debris on the city's two free landfill days, limited to one level pickup truck load per Longmont resident.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

Bulk junk removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Longmont.

How much does bulk junk removal cost in Longmont?

A trash bag is $59 as the first item and $10 additional. A filled household box is $59 as the first item. Add your actual items and quantities to see the combined price before booking. Loading, transportation and disposal are included; any applicable sales tax is shown before payment.

Can you pick up bags of junk today?

Book by 2pm in the pickup address’s local time for same-day pickup. Available dates appear at checkout. Have the booked bags and boxes outside and accessible according to your confirmation. You receive pickup updates and completion photos; the booking is for a day rather than an exact arrival time.

Do I count every object inside a bag or box?

No. Count the filled bags or boxes using the matching choice. Books and media go in Filled household box; clothes, bedding and shoes go in Bag of clothes & bedding; packed toys have a Box of toys choice. Empty cardboard is separate, with individual empty boxes and bundles of 10 flattened boxes. Heavy, oversized or unusual contents need a photo review before booking.

Can you pick up a small loose pile of household junk?

Yes. Estimate how many trash bags the small household pile would fill, and bag or box as much as possible. Select furniture and other larger items separately. There is no extra charge just because the pile is loose. Send a photo first if the count or contents are unclear. A household Dumpster Bag choice does not accept construction debris.

Can I book bags, boxes and furniture together?

Yes. Select the bags and boxes, then add each larger item using its own catalog choice. The booking shows one combined price for the selected items. Move everything to an accessible outdoor spot before pickup; indoor carrying and sorting are not included. Keep anything you want to retain apart from the booked items and identify what goes in your photos and notes.

Where does a Longmont mattress go?

A mattress can go on a city large item pickup for the published one to three item fee, to the Hard to Recycle event in October where the first mattress or box spring is free and each additional one is charged, or to one of the two free landfill days as part of the furniture route.Official guidance

How does a couch leave a Longmont home?

Furniture is one of the large items the city collects, with a pickup booked through Waste Services at 303-651-8416 and charged to the utility bill at the published one, two or three item rate. The two free landfill days each year also take one level pickup truck load of large items and debris at no charge with proof of residency.Official guidance

Where do Longmont appliances go?

The city refuses household appliances on the large item pickup and in the trash cart but says washers, dryers, dishwashers and stoves may be disposed of free of charge at the Longmont Recycling Center, which also takes scrap metal. A refrigerator, freezer or air conditioner holds hazardous gases, so the city points to Bazor Recycling at 260 South Sunset St in Longmont for a fee.Official guidance

How do Longmont televisions and computers get recycled?

The city refuses large electronics such as televisions, computers and microwaves on the large item pickup and in the trash cart. The annual Hard to Recycle event runs October 5 to 17, 2026 by reservation, with the first screen free, flat screens then charged per screen inch, CRTs charged at a higher inch rate, and computers, phones, cameras, consoles, stereos, cables and wires free.Official guidance

Can Longmont take construction debris?

Not on any city route. The trash cart refuses debris from construction, remodeling or demolition, the large item pickup refuses material produced by contracted services, the residential dumpster refuses concrete, bricks, shingles, drywall, plaster, tile and lumber over three feet, and the free landfill days are for household large items rather than project debris. A private hauler or a direct landfill arrangement is needed.Official guidance

Will Longmont take a treadmill as a large item?

Exercise equipment is not named on the large item page, which lists refusals rather than an accepted item list, so call Waste Services at 303-651-8416 and describe the machine before booking. If it is accepted it counts as one of the three items in the pickup.Official guidance

What large item options does Longmont offer?

Three city options. A large item pickup on your regular collection day carries the published one, two or three item fee on the utility bill, the two free landfill days each year take one level pickup truck load of most large items and debris with proof of residency, and a four cubic yard residential dumpster rents for a week between February and October at the published rate.Official guidance

Who collects trash in Longmont?

The City of Longmont collects it. Waste Services provides trash, recycling and composting to all single-family and many multi-family homes, recycling is included with every trash subscription at no extra charge, carts go out by 7 a.m. on the collection day, and residents reach the department at 303-651-8416.Official guidance

What special collection events does Longmont hold?
