Ready for that machine to go? Leave it at the curb and it can be gone today. Choose your equipment, see the exact price and book by 2pm for same-day pickup.
A new use for the same space, once the old machine is outside and gone.
Room for what comes next
Your space can have a new purpose.
A home office. Room for a guest. A little more floor to enjoy. When an old machine is in the way, a clear pickup plan makes the next step easier.
The room is changing.
Book the equipment you are ready to let go of, whether it is one exercise bike or several machines. See the total before making the plan.
A replacement is coming.
Check whether your retailer includes removal. If the old treadmill is still your responsibility, give it a pickup day of its own.
It is not making the move.
Settle the price online, arrange to have it outside, and follow the pickup through text updates and completion photos. One less thing to coordinate before the keys change hands.
Choose by the type of equipment. A brand name does not mean a different item, but a walking pad and a full treadmill do.
Treadmill, walking pad or commercial model?
Household treadmill includes folding home models with a tall console. Choose Walking pad for a compact under-desk model, or Commercial treadmill for a large gym machine. All equipment opens those choices.
An exercise bike, elliptical or rower
Spin, upright, recumbent and air bikes all use Exercise bike, including Peloton and other brands. One elliptical includes its connected base, handles and pedals. Rowing machines and Pilates reformers have their own choices.
Weights, racks and benches
Add together the pounds of loose dumbbells, kettlebells, plates and barbells. Free weights are priced in 10 lb units, rounding the combined weight up. For example, 25 lb uses three units. Add a stand, rack or bench separately if it is going too.

A machine can be too heavy or awkward for a solo move. Arrange suitable help for indoor carrying, stairs or any dismantling needed to reach the outdoor pickup spot.
A pickup day is not an exact arrival window. Tell us before booking about a shared loading area, restricted outdoor access or equipment whose size or setup you are unsure how to select.

You’re in the loop. Until it’s gone.
Confirmation when you book. A heads-up before arrival. Photos when it’s done.
Exercise equipment is named on no Albany or Dougherty County list, so the machine follows the non-hazardous landfill route and the price is confirmed at the gate or through a container rental.
City cost & eligibility
No published page names an exercise machine, so confirm with the county scale house at 229-302-3226 for a gate price or with the city at (229) 302-1800 for a roll-off container, since the machine will not fit the cart rules.
When & how
Call the county scale house or the city office before the machine is moved, then take it to the landfill during gate hours or place it in a rented container.
Get it ready
Take off loose weights and pedals so the piece can be handled and covered safely, and keep it out of the city cart and the yard debris pile, which may not be mixed with anything else.
Albany collects only what is inside the city-issued cart, so boxes are broken down and everything else waits for another route. Carts go to the curb or the alley no earlier than 5 p.m. the day before collection and no later than 7 a.m. on the collection day, face the roadway within three feet of the curb and away from poles and mail boxes, and come back in by 7 p.m. that day. Leaves and yard debris are collected twice a month in a separate pile near the garbage collection point, and nothing else may be mixed into it.
All loads reaching the Dougherty County landfill must be fully covered or secured, and commercial loads must be tarped entering and leaving. The gate is open Monday to Friday 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday 7:30 a.m. to 12 p.m., closes fifteen minutes early so the site can shut down safely, and closes for an hour one day a month for a safety meeting. Herbicides, pesticides, gasoline, oils, batteries and tires with rims are refused, hazardous and biomedical waste is refused, restricted non-hazardous waste needs written approval, and children must stay in vehicles with no scavenging.
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.

Dougherty County landfill
A household or business with furniture, mattresses, appliances, renovation debris or other non-hazardous material to drop off.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Exercise equipment removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Albany.
How much does exercise equipment removal cost in Albany?+
A household treadmill is $159 as the first item and $85 additional. An elliptical is $159 first and $85 additional; an exercise bike is $119 first and $40 additional. Choose all your items to see the combined price. Loading, transportation and disposal are included, with any applicable sales tax shown before payment.
Can you pick up a treadmill or exercise bike today?+
Book by 2pm in the pickup address’s local time for same-day pickup. Available dates appear at checkout. Have the equipment outside and accessible according to your confirmation. You receive pickup updates and completion photos; we book a day rather than an exact appointment time.
Will you dismantle my treadmill or carry it out of the basement?+
Dropcurb pickup starts outside. Arrange indoor carrying, stairs and any dismantling needed to get your equipment out before pickup. Check the moving instructions for your exact model and arrange suitable help. We load and haul away the equipment from an accessible outdoor spot.
Which option covers a Peloton, spin bike or recumbent bike?+
Choose Exercise bike for one stationary bike, including spin, upright, recumbent and air bikes. Peloton and other brands use the same stationary-bike choice. A treadmill, walking pad and outdoor bicycle are different items, so select their matching options.
How do I book free weights, a weight rack or a bench?+
Enter the combined weight in pounds for your dumbbells, kettlebells, plates and barbells. Booking rounds that total up to the next 10 lb unit: 25 lb uses three units. Stands, racks and benches are separate items and do not include the loose weights. Add each one that is going.
Will Albany collect a treadmill?+
No city curbside programme for it is published, and the cart rules only take household garbage, so a treadmill goes to the Dougherty County landfill, which accepts most non-hazardous material and requires covered loads, or into a roll-off container rented from the city. Confirm the price first at the county scale house, 229-302-3226, or with the city at (229) 302-1800.Official guidance
Who collects trash in Albany?+
The City of Albany does it through the Solid Waste Division at 1900 N. Monroe St., reachable at (229) 302-1800. Household garbage is collected in city-issued carts and yard debris twice a month, additional containers are arranged for a fee, and the city also rents roll-off containers for larger loads. The county runs the landfill and the Keep Albany-Dougherty Beautiful recycling drop-offs, which is where recyclables and electronics go.Official guidance
Where do Albany paint, oil and batteries go?+
Batteries never go to the landfill, which refuses them along with herbicides, pesticides, gasoline and oils, so household and rechargeable batteries go to the Keep Albany-Dougherty Beautiful drop-offs at 2521 Meredyth Drive or behind the James H. Gray, Sr. Civic Center. Paint is a household problem rather than a site: buy only what you need, use or donate the rest, dry latex paint out so the solid residue can go in the roll-out cart, and recycle an empty dry steel can at Albany Recycling Services, 1301 East Gordon Avenue.Official guidance
What does the city charge for containers and collection?+
Residential household garbage collection is billed monthly under a schedule the city adjusts each July, and additional containers are arranged with the Solid Waste Division at (229) 302-1800. Roll-off containers carry a one time set-out charge, a pull charge, a per ton tipping charge and a daily rental charge on the published fee schedule, and the same schedule prices passenger, truck and farm tractor tires separately.Official guidance
