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

Household waste has to be in a city issued black or brown cart to be collected, and a second brown cart is bought through 311 for a published purchase price with no additional collection charge.
Bulk solid waste runs on the same day as the garbage cart, but only after the resident calls 311 to request a scheduled pickup, and the city will not collect a mixed pile.
Furniture is named in the household garbage category the Pine Grove landfill accepts, while the city does not publish which items its scheduled bulk pickup takes, so the couch route has to be confirmed.
The handoff matters
Household waste only leaves the curb inside a city issued black or brown cart, and everything else runs on the same day as the garbage cart, so recycling, yard waste and bulk waste all follow the household garbage day. A second brown cart is bought through 311 at (706) 653-4000 for a published price and carries no additional collection charge, and household waste in anything other than a city cart is not collected.

Loads have to be one type of material, because mixed loads are not permitted and the site does not separate for you, and paint and batteries are prohibited, with empty or completely dried paint cans allowed after the described solidification procedure.

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.

Household garbage is collected once a week in a city issued black or brown cart, and recycling, yard waste and bulk waste all run on the same day as the garbage cart. A second brown cart is bought through 311 at (706) 653-4000 for a published purchase price and carries no additional collection charge. Household waste in anything other than a city cart is not collected.Official guidance
Call 311 at (706) 653-4000 and request a scheduled bulk pickup, because bulk solid waste is not collected automatically. It runs on the same day as the household garbage cart, the city will not collect a mixed pile, and a cut down tree needs its own Tree for Fee request that the resident has to authorize. Limbs must be under four feet long and under six inches across.Official guidance
Furniture sits inside the household garbage category that the Pine Grove Municipal Landfill accepts at its published household garbage rate, so a self hauled couch goes there as a single type load. The city does not publish which items its scheduled bulk pickup takes, so call 311 at (706) 653-4000 to ask whether the couch can go out on a bulk day as well, and keep it out of the city cart.Official guidance
Household collection is part of the city service and no per pickup price is published, while a second brown cart is bought through 311 for a published price and carries no additional collection charge. A scheduled bulk pickup is arranged through 311 and the city publishes no rate for it, so confirm any charge there. Self hauling is priced by weight at the city landfills, with household garbage that includes furniture, construction waste and concrete or dirt at one published rate, organic waste and the inert material at Granite Bluff at a lower one, and metal and special handling material at the highest rate on the schedule. Dropcurb prices its own pickup separately and shows the total at checkout.Official guidance
The Columbus Consolidated Government collects it directly through the Public Works Integrated Waste Division, which runs the waste collections, solid waste disposal and recycling divisions together. General questions, the bulky pickup request and the Tree for Fee request all go to 311 at (706) 653-4000, the Recycling and Sustainability Center is at (706) 225-4505, and the Solid Waste Disposal division contact is (706) 225-4515.Official guidance
Call 311 at (706) 653-4000, because bulk solid waste and large yard piles are collected only after a scheduled pickup is requested. The bulk collection runs on the same day as the household garbage cart, the city will not collect a mixed pile so the material has to be one type, and limbs have to be under four feet long and under six inches across.
