The local disposal guide
Will the city take it?
Lyons licenses the companies that haul waste but does not collect it itself. Town ordinance 6-6 requires every hauling company that collects, transports or disposes of garbage, recyclables or compostables inside the town to hold an annual town licence and to report annually through Boulder County's RETRAC system, and the town's Public Works Department covers electric, sewer, streets, water and buildings rather than waste. A household therefore contracts a town-licensed hauler or self-hauls to a Boulder County facility, where the county publishes the item fees: mattresses, furniture, refrigerant appliances and trash are charged, while recycling and scrap metal are free.
Lyons licenses the hauling companies that work inside the town but does not collect waste itself, so a household contracts a licensed hauler or self-hauls bagged and loose trash to a Boulder County transfer station for a fee.

Any household delivering trash to a county transfer station. A property inside the town is served by a hauling company holding a current Town of Lyons licence under Municipal Code 6-6.
When & how
Use the hauler's collection day, or take the load to a transfer station during its open hours: Allenspark is open Sunday, Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Nederland is open every day except Wednesday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Bag the trash or expect loose material to be charged by the cubic yard, and keep the materials the county handles separately out of the trash load: recycling, scrap metal, textiles, electronics and household hazardous waste.

City cost & eligibility
$25 per large item such as a couch, desk or table at a Boulder County transfer station. Any household delivering the item to a county transfer station. Loose trash is charged separately by the cubic yard and by the vehicle, and a hauler sets its own price for a bulky pickup at the property.
When & how

City cost & eligibility
$30 per mattress at a Boulder County transfer station, with a box spring charged at the same rate. Any household delivering the mattress or box spring to a county transfer station. A hauler pickup at the property is priced by the hauler.
When & how

Scrap metal is accepted free of charge at the county transfer stations, and the accepted list names dishwashers, microwaves, hot water heaters, lawnmowers drained of fluids, metal lawn chairs, storm doors, barbecue grills without tanks, wheel rims and metal pipes.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Scrap metal, including the listed appliances without Freon and any other item at least half metal and approved by the attendant, is accepted free of charge at the Boulder County transfer stations. No salvaging is allowed.
When & how
Take the item to Allenspark or Nederland during the station's open hours.
Get it ready
Drain all fluids from power equipment such as a lawnmower, remove a barbecue tank before the grill goes in the metal pile, and keep refrigerant appliances on their own route because refrigerators, freezers and air conditioners are refused as scrap metal.

City cost & eligibility
$65 per refrigerant appliance at a Boulder County transfer station, at the published 2026 fee. Refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners, dehumidifiers and water coolers delivered to a county transfer station. The county contracts a certified vendor to comply with the federal EPA refrigerant rules.

Colorado has banned landfilling waste electronic devices since July 2013, electronics are no longer accepted at the county transfer stations, and the county runs collection events and publishes an electronics options list.
City cost & eligibility
The county publishes no rate for electronics recycling, so confirm the terms with the options list or at a collection event before loading the car.
When & how
Use a county electronics collection event or a business on the county's electronics options list, because the transfer stations no longer take electronic devices.
Get it ready
Keep electronics out of the trash and out of a scrap metal load, since both are refused, and wipe personal data from a computer, phone or drive before it leaves the property.
Paint, chemicals, batteries and household hazardous waste
Accepted with preparation
Household hazardous waste does not belong in a trash container, a scrap metal load or a bulky pile: Boulder County runs a household hazardous waste facility at 1901 63rd Street in Boulder for paint, chemicals, batteries, oil, aerosols and similar products, and the facility does not accept appliances, electronics, tires or asbestos.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. There is no charge to drop off household hazardous waste for Boulder County residents, and the county names the Town of Lyons among the eligible communities. Outside counties are charged per visit.
When & how
Bring the material to 1901 63rd Street in Boulder on a Wednesday through Saturday between 8:30 a.m. and 4 p.m. with proof of residency such as a driver's license, vehicle registration, voter identification, tax certificate, lease agreement or utility bill.
Get it ready
Keep paint, chemicals, batteries, oil and aerosols out of the trash and recycling containers, out of the scrap metal load and out of the bulky pile, keep each product in its original container without mixing, and bring proof of residency. Appliances, electronics, tires and asbestos do not go to this facility.
Neither the town nor the county publishes a Lyons-specific construction debris route. A construction load is arranged with a licensed hauler, or taken to a county transfer station where it is charged under the loose-trash and vehicle schedule.
City cost & eligibility
No town or county price is published for a construction load inside Lyons, so confirm the hauler's terms or the transfer station's acceptance and rate before the material leaves the site.
When & how
Arrange the haul with a licensed company or confirm the load with a county transfer station before delivering it.
Get it ready
Separate recyclable and reusable material from the landfill load where the project allows it, and confirm acceptance first, because the county's deconstruction-instead-of-demolition requirement is written for unincorporated Boulder County rather than for land inside the town, and note that the county's own station note reads "Our facility does not accept construction and demolition (C&D) material from businesses or contractors."
Exercise equipment is not named by the town or the county, so a machine has to be confirmed with the licensed hauler or the transfer station attendant before it is loaded.
City cost & eligibility
A machine is either a large item on the published transfer station schedule or a scrap metal load if it is mostly metal, so confirm which route the attendant or the hauler will apply before the trip.
When & how
Confirm the item first, then use the hauler or a transfer station during its open hours.
Get it ready
Take the console or battery pack off the machine so it can be handled separately, keep the frame out of the trash pile, and ask whether a mostly metal frame can go in the free scrap metal recycling.
Lyons requires hauling companies to hold a town licence before they collect, transport or dispose of discarded material inside the town, and the companies report annually through Boulder County's RETRAC system. Ask the licensed hauler for the collection day, the set-out window and what the service includes when the account is opened.
Recycling and scrap metal are free of charge at the county transfer stations, while trash is charged by the bag, by the cubic yard of loose material or by the vehicle, and mattresses, furniture and refrigerant appliances each carry their own published fee. Keep household hazardous waste, tires and electronic devices out of a station load, because all three are refused there.
The Boulder County Household Hazardous Materials Management Facility at 1901 63rd Street in Boulder is open Wednesday through Saturday from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. and closed Sunday through Tuesday. The drop-off is free for Boulder County residents, and Lyons is named among the eligible communities, with proof of residency required and a limit of 400 pounds per day.

Arrange it
Contact a hauling company holding a current Town of Lyons licence, confirm the service level for the address, and ask about bulky item pickups at the same time.
