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.

Bulk junk removal in Dalton: start with the item’s collection rules, then choose the arrangement that fits.
Reviewed · Sources below
Dalton picks up a maximum of two cubic yards of refuse, about the size of a long-bed pickup truck bed, every two weeks free of charge, on a schedule that alternates north and south across the city. Advance authorization is required and the homeowner has to do the work.
Household furniture heads the city's allowed refuse list, so a couch goes out with the biweekly two cubic yard allowance once the pickup has been authorized.
Mattresses and box springs are named directly in the city's allowed refuse list, so bedding is collected on the same biweekly allowance as furniture.
White goods, meaning standard appliances, are named in the city's allowed refuse list, so an appliance goes out with the biweekly two cubic yard allowance.
Electronic waste is on the city's allowed refuse list, so a screen or a tower can ride the biweekly curbside allowance, and the county also takes electronics at its Old Dixie Highway site only.
The handoff matters
Since August 17, 2020, Dalton residents must have advance authorization to put rubbish or refuse out for collection, either by calling Dalton Public Works or by filing a request through SeeClickFix online or in the mobile app. The free allowance is two cubic yards, about a long-bed pickup truck bed, every two weeks, the pickup alternates between the northern and southern halves of the city, and the work has to be the homeowner's own because a private contractor must dispose of its material itself.
