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.

Bulk junk removal in Norwalk: start with the item’s collection rules, then choose the arrangement that fits.
Reviewed · Sources below
Norwalk recycles mattresses and box springs free at three Saturday events each year, and a mattress is also on the bulky collection's acceptable list.
Furniture is acceptable on the bulky collection and at the transfer station as a bulky item.
Metal appliances are acceptable on the bulky collection, while an appliance containing Freon is refused there and taken at the transfer station for a fee.
Electronics are refused on the bulky collection and accepted at the Crescent Street recycling centre.
Construction and remodelling debris is refused on the bulky collection and at the transfer station, so the city publishes no route for it.
Exercise equipment is not named on the bulky collection list, so Customer Service has to confirm the machine before it is scheduled.
Eligible Norwalk households get two bulky collections a calendar year of up to one cubic yard each, and the transfer station takes bulky items from residents with a pass.
The handoff matters
Eligible households get two bulky collections a calendar year, each limited to one cubic yard of material, about four feet by two feet, and each address sits in one of four zones with a two-week sign-up window twice a year. Items go out by 7 a.m. on the scheduled day and no more than 48 hours early, at least three feet from mailboxes, fences, parked vehicles and utility poles, without blocking the sidewalk or street, with only the items reported at scheduling collected and similar materials grouped together.
Bulky collection with the eligibility, the volume limit, the zone sign-up windows and the accepted and refused itemsEvery residential vehicle at the Crescent Street transfer station needs a valid City of Norwalk Residential Disposal Pass, and a residential pickup truck, SUV, cargo van or towing trailer also needs a Residential Disposal Permit issued at the station, with the vehicle brought in empty and half a tank of gas so it can be weighed. A resident car disposes of municipal solid waste free and a residential pickup or trailer gets one ton free, while commercial vehicles pay by the ton and an unregistered vehicle pays a minimum, all by credit or debit card only.
Transfer station and recycling center with pass and permit rules, resident cost allowances, accepted items, fee items and refusalsThe bulky collection refuses hazardous waste, Freon appliances, electronics, tires, vehicle parts, propane tanks, yard waste, recycling materials, clothing and textiles, liquid paint and construction or remodelling debris. The transfer station refuses ammunition and explosives, hazardous materials, asbestos, counter tops, asphalt shingles, sheetrock, ceramic sinks and toilets, prescription drugs, construction and demolition debris and wet paint. Hazardous chemicals, paints, fuels and fluorescent bulbs go to the city's free household hazardous waste day instead.
