Finish clearing the space
You have decided what is going. Now give those bags and boxes a pickup day, with a price you can see before anyone arrives.
Book the unwanted bags and boxes left after packing. Choose an available pickup day before you hand back the keys, and arrange to have them outside.
You do not need a whole house of junk. Select the bags, boxes and larger items you actually have. Your combined price is shown online.
When the next collection does not fit your plans, choose a Dropcurb pickup day. Updates keep you informed, and completion photos show when the booked items are gone.
A clear count. An exact price.
A few simple choices turn a mixed pile into a clear booking. No need to estimate how much of a truck it might fill.
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 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.
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.
First item / additional item
The highest first-item price applies once. Every remaining item uses its additional-item price. Loading, transportation and disposal are included. Applicable sales tax is shown before payment.

The center opens Tuesday 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Wednesday noon to 8 p.m., Thursday and Friday 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., and Saturday 7:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., and commercial vehicles or vehicles with loose garbage cannot use it.
Danbury disposal reference with the Mom & Pop address, permit and hours, the item by item fees, the refusal list and the yard waste and recycling truck programsThe City of Danbury offers a free live Christmas tree pickup starting January 2nd and running through January 31st, weather permitting, with no set schedule, so trees go to the curb as close to January 2nd as possible. Everything has to be removed from the tree first, including decorations, tinsel, lights and the stand, and artificial trees are not collected. A live tree can also be dropped free as wood waste at Ferris Mulch Products on Plumtrees Road.

Before you book
Bulk junk removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Danbury.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Each piece has its own published fee at the Danbury drop-off center: a sleeper sofa, a sofa, a love seat or recliner, a living room chair, a coffee table, an end table or small desk, a large desk or dresser, a kitchen table, and kitchen chairs by the piece. A permit is required and it is free for residents with proof of residency.Official guidance
To the Oak Ridge Transfer Station, because the page states twice that bulky waste, construction and demolition material is not accepted at the Mom & Pop but is accepted at Oak Ridge Waste. Pricing varies by item and the number to call is (203) 743-0405. Items priced there include bathtubs, doors, garage doors, sinks, toilets, grills, patio furniture, wheelbarrows, wooden pallets, and exercise equipment such as a treadmill or stationary bike.Official guidance
A clean and dry mattress or box spring is free at the Danbury drop-off center. A wet or soiled mattress is charged a per piece fee with a higher rate for a queen or king size, and the same fee applies to a box spring. The free recycling comes from Connecticut's mattress stewardship law.Official guidance
Each appliance has its own published fee at the transfer station, covering refrigerators, freezers, window air conditioners, dehumidifiers, stoves and ranges, washers and dryers, dishwashers, hot water heaters, garbage compactors, range hoods, wood stoves, hot tubs and furnaces. A permit is required and it is free for residents with proof of residency.Official guidance
Yes. The published appliance fees for the cooling units carry a footnote stating that a Freon removal charge is included in the listed amount, and the page states that appliances with and without Freon are accepted at the transfer station. That is why a refrigerator, freezer, window air conditioner or dehumidifier costs more than a stove.Official guidance
Yes. Electronic waste is accepted free in the container at the Danbury drop-off center for permit holders, and Connecticut's electronics recycling law requires each municipality to provide residents with a free, convenient and accessible collection point for televisions, computers, monitors and printers.Official guidance
Batteries, both single use and rechargeable, ink cartridges, compact fluorescent and fluorescent bulbs, and holiday string lights all go in the electronic waste container at no charge. Silver oxide watch batteries are the exception and go to a household hazardous waste event, while incandescent bulbs go in the regular trash.Official guidance
To the Oak Ridge Transfer Station, because the disposal reference states that construction and demolition material is not accepted at the Mom & Pop drop-off center but is accepted at Oak Ridge Waste. Pricing varies by item and the number to call is (203) 743-0405. Asphalt and asphalt shingles follow the same route to the Oak Ridge scale house.Official guidance
A pickup truck load at water level is charged a published flat amount, and anything bigger than a pickup goes over the scale at a published per ton rate. Mixed material such as wood, tile, sheetrock, flooring, insulation, ceiling tiles and carpeting is priced on request, and bagged wood or bagged stone brought to the Danbury center instead is charged by the bag.Official guidance
Residential brush in a truck is accepted at the drop-off center by the bundle, and bagged wood and bagged stone are accepted by the bag. Leaves, grass clippings, wood chips, tree stumps, mixed loads, commercial brush, and anything arriving in a station wagon are refused, so the bundled brush load is the one that fits the center.Official guidance
Ferris Mulch Products at 6 Plumtrees Rd. accepts brush, logs, stumps, shrub trimmings, leaves, garden waste and wood chips, and for Danbury city residents there is no charge for brush under two inches in diameter and for leaves. Residents stop in at the office and show a valid driver's license or tax bill plus picture identification.Official guidance
A private hauler the resident chooses, because curbside collection in the region is a private subscription service. The Housatonic Resources Recovery Authority is the City's solid waste and recycling authority and publishes a chart of registered haulers permitted to collect in each municipality. Trash goes first to a regional transfer station, one of which is in Danbury, and is then shipped to the Wheelabrator waste-to-energy plant in Bridgeport.Official guidance
Yes, with a permit and cash. Household trash is charged by the bag, and the published rates step up with the bag size, from a thirteen gallon bag to a fifty gallon or larger bag. Commercial vehicles and vehicles carrying loose garbage cannot use the center, so the trash has to arrive bagged in a passenger vehicle.Official guidance
Yes, both are free at the drop-off center. Textiles go in a collection container that takes clothing, footwear, accessories and linens, which may be ripped or stained as long as they are dry and bagged. Books are free to recycle but the pages have to be ripped out of both paperbacks and hardcovers, with the binding going in the trash, and a dirty, mouldy or wet book cannot be recycled or donated.Official guidance
Residents stay in their vehicle the whole time, place only the material to be removed at the back of the vehicle, and have a driver's license ready as proof of residency while workers take the contents out. Waits run from five to thirty minutes, the event runs rain or shine, the authority may inspect a vehicle with an excessive amount of material, and large quantities are subject to a fee. Medicines cannot be brought to these events.Official guidance
