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 local disposal guide
Bulk junk removal in Bradenton: start with the item’s collection rules, then choose the arrangement that fits.
Reviewed · Sources below
Garbage is collected twice a week from the green cart and yard waste once a week from the blue cart, and everything has to be inside the right cart with the lid closed.
Bradenton collects bulk items by request, and the published list names furniture including mattresses, sofas and box springs, at a flat rate per item added to the utility bill.
Refrigerators, stoves, dishwashers, water heaters, freezers, washers and dryers are named in the bulk list and go out on a scheduled collection at the flat per item rate.
Televisions, computers and stereo equipment are collected at the curb on a scheduled bulk pickup, or dropped free with electronic scrap at the Lena Road Landfill on the third Saturday of each month.
Construction, remodeling and demolition material is refused in the garbage cart and no city collection route is published for it, so a project load needs a private arrangement.
Yard waste is collected once a week from the blue cart, or in paper bags or tied bundles, with a published per cubic yard rate for a load too large for the routine service.
The handoff matters
Garbage and yard waste both go to the curb no later than 6 a.m. on the collection day. The cart sits within two feet of the curb with the handle facing away and at least three feet from cars, mailboxes, meters and any other obstruction, and items are collected only from inside the cart with the lid closed, so nothing is leaned against the bin.

Call 941-708-6340 and have the items at the curb by 6 a.m. on the collection day, and make the call within 48 hours of the items going out, because the City warns that an unscheduled pile may draw an illegal dumping fee.

Before you book
Bulk junk removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Bradenton.
The published charge is a flat rate per item, added to the utility bill, and a tire carries its own published fee on top of that. The collection has to be scheduled with the Solid Waste Division at 941-708-6340, and the City warns that leaving a pile out without making the call may result in an illegal dumping fee.Official guidance

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.

The City says its collection is designed for routine yard maintenance rather than large landscaping or tree removal jobs, so a large volume may need a special collection or a haul-away service booked at 941-708-6340, with a published rate per cubic yard charged to the service address. Yard waste generated by a lawn maintenance, tree trimming or tree removal business has to be hauled by that business.Official guidance
