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.
You want to know it is handled.
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 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.

Twice weekly household garbage in the City container
Accepted with preparation
Household garbage is collected twice a week from the City-issued container at single-family homes inside the city limits, and the route refuses construction material, hazardous products, tires and the other unacceptable items.
City cost & eligibility
Residential sanitation is billed to the service address through the City utility account, and the City prices the separate Pay for Pickup option for unscheduled collections, so confirm the current billing arrangement with the Sanitation Division at 561-416-3367.
When & how
Garbage runs twice a week on the address's published route. Set the container out no earlier than 7 p.m. the day before and no later than 7 a.m. on the collection day, and bring it in within 12 hours after collection.
Get it ready
Wrap or bag the garbage and put it in the City-issued container, which stays with the address. Keep hazardous products, paint, batteries, tires, construction material and vegetation out of it, and keep the garbage separate from the vegetation and bulk piles so the load is not refused.
Bulk items are collected once a week from single-family residences on the same day as the address's recycling and vegetation, and the published list names furniture and bicycles.
City cost & eligibility
The weekly bulk collection is part of the residential sanitation service billed to the address. A pile larger than two cubic yards, or a collection on an unscheduled day, moves to the City's Pay for Pickup option, so confirm the current terms with the Sanitation Division at 561-416-3367.
When & how
Once a week, on the recycling and vegetation day for the address. Material goes out no earlier than 7 p.m. the night before and no later than 7 a.m. on the collection day.
Get it ready
Place bulk items at least five feet from garbage containers, trees, utility poles, mailboxes and any other obstruction, and never under a utility line or a tree, because anything obstructed is left behind. Keep the pile separate from vegetation, keep hazardous products and construction material out of it, and remove or secure the doors on a refrigerator, washer or dryer.
A mattress is not named in the published bulk list, which covers furniture, bicycles, televisions and white goods, so confirm the item with the Sanitation Division before it goes out.
City cost & eligibility
The weekly bulk collection is part of the residential sanitation service billed to the address, and the City publishes the Pay for Pickup option for piles over two cubic yards or unscheduled days, so confirm how a mattress is handled with the Sanitation Division at 561-416-3367.
When & how
Bulk waste is collected once a week on the address's recycling and vegetation day, with material out no earlier than 7 p.m. the night before and no later than 7 a.m. on the collection day.
Get it ready
Keep the mattress dry and at least five feet clear of containers, trees, utility poles and mailboxes. Confirm the item with the City before set-out, and keep hazardous products and construction material off the pile.
Refrigerators, washers and dryers are named as white goods on the weekly bulk route, and the City asks for the doors removed or secured for safety.
City cost & eligibility
A white good rides the weekly bulk collection that is part of the residential sanitation service billed to the address, with the Pay for Pickup option reserved for piles over two cubic yards or unscheduled days, so confirm the current terms with the Sanitation Division at 561-416-3367.
When & how
Weekly, on the bulk day that matches the address's recycling and vegetation day, with the unit out no later than 7 a.m. on the collection day.
Get it ready
Empty and clean the unit, remove or secure the doors on a refrigerator, washer or dryer, and place it at least five feet from garbage containers, trees, utility poles and mailboxes. A cooling appliance goes out on the bulk route rather than in the garbage container.
Televisions are named in the bulk list, and the City directs old electronics including computers, monitors and stereos to recycling rather than the garbage container.
City cost & eligibility
Two routes carry the same devices. The weekly bulk collection is part of the residential sanitation service billed to the address, while the county Home Chemical and Recycling Centers publish no charge for Palm Beach County residents, so confirm the route and its current terms at 561-416-3367 or 866-792-4636.
When & how
On the bulk day that matches the address's recycling and vegetation day, or at a county Home Chemical and Recycling Center during its published hours with no appointment described.
Get it ready
Keep televisions, computers, monitors and stereos out of the garbage container and the recycling bins. Clear personal data before the device leaves the property, tape or bag a cracked screen, and keep loose lithium and rechargeable batteries on the household hazardous route rather than in any bin.
The City does not collect construction and demolition debris, and its ordinance requires an authorized franchised hauler for that material inside the city limits.
City cost & eligibility
The City publishes no curbside collection and no City rate for construction and demolition debris. The City code requires an authorized franchised hauler for project debris and those companies set their own prices, while a load hauled directly to a county transfer station is weighed and charged the published tipping fee.
When & how
Arrange the container or the haul before the work starts, because nothing from a project goes out with the twice weekly garbage route, the weekly recycling day or the bulk and vegetation pile.
Get it ready
Keep construction material out of the garbage container, the recycling bins and the bulk pile, because it is on the unacceptable materials list. Keep paint, solvents and other hazardous products on the household hazardous route, and do not mix project debris into a vegetation pile, which the City refuses when it is contaminated.
Swale placement opens at 7 p.m. the night before the collection day and closes at 7 a.m. on the day itself, and the empty container comes back in within 12 hours after collection.
Five feet of clearance, and nothing under a line or a tree
Bulk items and containers sit at least five feet from other containers, trees, utility poles, mailboxes and any other obstacle. Anything placed under a utility line, a tree or a limb is not collected, and vegetation cannot sit next to a mailbox, utility pole or sprinkler head or further than six feet from the paved edge of the street.
The City refuses bulk items that are not separated from vegetation, and refused waste has to come off the swale within 12 hours of a violation notice, with the clean load collected on the next scheduled day unless the household books the Pay for Pickup option.
Use a permitted, accessible outdoor spot. Arrange the move out of your home, keep shared access clear and follow your confirmation’s readiness instructions. Check with your building about access or staging limits before booking.
A household with more than two cubic yards of bulk items or vegetation, or an address that needs a collection outside the published weekly day.
Cost & conditions
From $161.71 for the published minimum for items measuring up to two cubic yards, plus $35.66 for each additional cubic yard. City of Boca Raton residential addresses arranging an unscheduled collection with the Sanitation Division at 561-416-3367. Only acceptable, non-hazardous material qualifies, and the current amount is confirmed when the collection is booked.
Arrange it
Call the Sanitation Division at 561-416-3367 to schedule the collection, and keep the pile to acceptable, non-hazardous material.
Construction and demolition debris, hazardous products, tires and the other unacceptable materials are refused, and the pile follows the same five foot clearance rule as the weekly route.
Household hazardous waste and electronics drop-off
Paint, solvents, pesticides, pool chemicals, propane cylinders, motor oil, batteries, fluorescent bulbs and electronics that must not go to the curb.
Cost & conditions
No charge. No charge for Palm Beach County residents at the county Home Chemical and Recycling Centers. Small businesses pay a fee, and the centers refuse tires, sharps and medical waste, prescription medicines, empty containers, explosives and electric vehicle batteries.
Arrange it
Take the material to a Home Chemical and Recycling Center during its published hours. The closest to Boca Raton is the Southwest County Transfer Station at 13400 S State Road 7 in Delray Beach, with a staffed center open Monday to Friday from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Keep products in their original containers with the lids tight, never mix chemicals, and transport the material upright in the trunk or truck bed.
Authorized hauler for construction and demolition debris
A renovation, roofing, deck, shed or demolition project that generates construction and demolition debris inside the city limits.
Cost & conditions
The City requires an authorized franchised hauler for construction and demolition debris inside the city limits and publishes no City rate, so each franchised company quotes its own price. A load hauled directly to a county transfer station is weighed on entry and exit and charged the published tipping fee.
Arrange it
Choose a company from the City's authorized construction and demolition hauler list, or haul the load to a county transfer station where the vehicle and load are weighed.
The City refuses construction and demolition debris at the curb, so it cannot go out with garbage, recycling, vegetation or the weekly bulk collection.
