City collection Sofas, chairs, tables and desks are bulk trash in East Point, so a couch leaves on a scheduled bulk pickup rather than in the refuse container, because furniture is also on the list of material refused in the cart. The pickup has to be booked with Solid Waste Services. $35 for for the first bulk item at the published bulk trash rate, with 10.00 for each additional item and two free bulk amnesty pickups a year for single-family residents. East Point residential customers, with the pickup scheduled in advance through Solid Waste Services at (404) 902-2650.

City collection Washers, dryers, stoves, hot water heaters and refrigerators are bulk items, but three conditions decide whether the crew will take the unit: a refrigerator has to have the Freon and the door removed, a hot water heater has to have the water drained from the tank, and a lawnmower has to have the gasoline and oil removed. $35 for for the first bulk item at the published bulk trash rate, with 10.00 for each additional item and two free bulk amnesty pickups a year for single-family residents.

The local disposal guide
Will the city take it?
East Point runs its own Solid Waste Services division, covering garbage, recycling, yard waste, bulk pickup and dead animal collection on one city account. Bulk material is collected by appointment rather than on a fixed day, and the published rate is a charge for the first item plus a smaller charge for each additional one, with two free bulk amnesty pickups a year for single-family residents. Sofas, chairs, tables, desks, mattresses, washers, dryers, hot water heaters, stoves, lawnmowers and refrigerators are all on the bulk list, subject to conditions that matter: a refrigerator has to have the Freon and the door removed, a hot water heater has to be drained, and a lawnmower has to be emptied of gasoline and oil. The city refuses dirt, sod, rock, branches, construction, remodeling and demolition debris, concrete, asphalt, wood, tires, paint, oil and hot ashes both in the cart and on the bulk list, so a renovation load is a private arrangement. Televisions and other electronics are named nowhere, and the city publishes no electronics drop-off, so that route is confirmed with the Solid Waste office before anything is set out.
Sofas, chairs, tables and desks are bulk trash in East Point, so a couch leaves on a scheduled bulk pickup rather than in the refuse container, because furniture is also on the list of material refused in the cart. The pickup has to be booked with Solid Waste Services.
City cost & eligibility
$35 for for the first bulk item at the published bulk trash rate, with 10.00 for each additional item and two free bulk amnesty pickups a year for single-family residents. East Point residential customers, with the pickup scheduled in advance through Solid Waste Services at (404) 902-2650.
When & how
Call Solid Waste Services at (404) 902-2650 to book the appointment, and use one of the two free amnesty pickups when a household still has them. Refuse containers otherwise go to the curb by 7:30 AM on the collection day.
Get it ready
Keep furniture out of the refuse container, keep it clear of mailboxes and parked vehicles, and do not park within five feet of the containers on collection day. Items refused in refuse, such as construction material, tires, paint, oil, dirt, sod and rock, never ride this route.
Mattresses are named bulk trash on both the sanitation brochure and the bulk amnesty flyer, so bedding leaves on a scheduled pickup at the published bulk rate, or inside one of the two free amnesty pickups a year.
City cost & eligibility
$35 for for the first bulk item at the published bulk trash rate, with 10.00 for each additional item and two free bulk amnesty pickups a year for single-family residents. East Point residential customers, scheduled through Solid Waste Services at (404) 902-2650.
When & how
Book the pickup by phone, and note that each item counts separately, so a mattress and box spring set is two items under the published rate.
Get it ready
Keep the mattress dry and out of the refuse container, because mattresses are bulk items and not refuse, and count each piece separately when the pickup is scheduled.
Washers, dryers, stoves, hot water heaters and refrigerators are bulk items, but three conditions decide whether the crew will take the unit: a refrigerator has to have the Freon and the door removed, a hot water heater has to have the water drained from the tank, and a lawnmower has to have the gasoline and oil removed.
City cost & eligibility
$35 for for the first bulk item at the published bulk trash rate, with 10.00 for each additional item and two free bulk amnesty pickups a year for single-family residents. East Point residential customers, with the appliance prepared to the city's conditions and the pickup scheduled at (404) 902-2650.
When & how
Call Solid Waste Services to schedule, and have the unit ready in the condition the city requires before the pickup day.
Get it ready
Remove the Freon and the door from a refrigerator, drain the tank on a hot water heater, and empty the gasoline and oil from a lawnmower, because each of those conditions is published and a unit that does not meet them is not ready for collection.
Electronics appear on neither the permitted bulk list nor the list of material refused in refuse, and East Point publishes no electronics drop-off, so a television or computer has to be confirmed with the Solid Waste office rather than promised at the curb.
City cost & eligibility
The city publishes no electronic waste entry, no drop-off and no rate, so confirm how a television or computer is handled with Solid Waste Services at (404) 902-2650 before it goes to the curb, and do not put it in the refuse container.
When & how
Call the Solid Waste office during its published hours, Monday to Friday from 7:30 AM to 4:00 PM, and ask what arrangement applies to the device.
Get it ready
Wipe personal data before handover, keep electronics out of the refuse container because the city's lists do not permit them there, and hold the device until the office confirms a route rather than leaving it at the curb.
Construction, remodeling and demolition debris is refused both in the refuse container and on the bulk list, along with concrete, asphalt, wood, dirt, sod, rock and tires, so a project load has no city route at all.
City cost & eligibility
The city publishes no construction rate because it refuses the material in every collection stream, so a renovation load is arranged with a private hauler or container company that quotes its own price.
When & how
Arrange the container or haul directly with a private company, because there is no city collection day for construction material.
Get it ready
Keep construction, remodeling and demolition material out of the refuse container and off the bulk pile, and keep dirt, sod, rock, concrete, asphalt, wood and tires out as well so the household's regular service is not affected.
Exercise equipment is not named on the bulk list, although lawnmowers are accepted once the gasoline and oil are removed, so a treadmill or weight machine has to be confirmed with the Solid Waste office.
City cost & eligibility
No published bulk entry or rate covers an exercise machine, so confirm the item with Solid Waste Services at (404) 902-2650 before it goes to the curb; if it is accepted the published bulk rate applies.
When & how
Call during the office's Monday to Friday 7:30 AM to 4:00 PM hours, and schedule the bulk pickup only once the item is confirmed.
Get it ready
Describe the machine and its weight when calling, break it down as far as it will go so two people can handle it, and keep it off the curb until the pickup is confirmed because loose unbudgeted material can draw a bulk waste fee.
Bulk collection, amnesty pickups and yard material
Accepted with preparation
East Point collects bulk material by appointment at the published rate, with two free bulk amnesty pickups a year for single-family residents, and it also runs yard waste collection with published limits. Refuse goes to the curb by 7:30 AM, and additional refuse outside the container draws a bulk waste fee.
City cost & eligibility
$35 for for the first bulk item, with 10.00 for each additional item and two free bulk amnesty pickups a year for single-family residents; yard trimmings beyond five feet long or five inches in diameter carry a minimum charge of 50.00 plus 10.00 per cubic yard after that. East Point residential customers on a city solid waste account, with pickups scheduled through Solid Waste Services at (404) 902-2650.
When & how
Refuse containers go out by 7:30 AM on the collection day, recycling is collected bi-weekly on the same day, and bulk or yard waste overage pickups are scheduled by phone. A pickup falling on a city holiday is adjusted.
Get it ready
Bag refuse inside the container rather than leaving it loose, keep containers at the rear or side of the property between collections, keep them clear of mailboxes and at least five feet from parked vehicles, and keep the refused materials such as dirt, sod, rock, tires, paint, oil, wood and construction debris out of every pile.
Bulk material is by appointment, not a set out on the regular day
Bulk items are collected only when the household books an appointment with Solid Waste Services, and the two free bulk amnesty pickups a year go first for single-family residents. After those are used, the published rate applies, which is a charge for the first item and a smaller charge for each additional one.
A refrigerator has to have the Freon and the door removed before disposal, a hot water heater has to have the water drained from the tank, and a lawnmower has to have the gasoline and oil removed. Those conditions are published in both the sanitation brochure and the bulk amnesty flyer, and a unit that does not meet them is not ready for the crew.
Refuse containers go to the curb no later than 7:30 AM on the collection day, and the ordinance requires refuse to be bagged inside covered plastic or metal cans stored at the rear or side of the property between collections. Additional refuse outside the container draws a bulk waste fee, extra containers are available for a fee, and containers should not sit within five feet of a parked vehicle or near a mailbox.
What is refused in every East Point collection stream
Dirt, sod, rock, branches and tree trimmings, metals, flammable material, oil, gas, paint, concrete, hot ashes and coals, tires, appliances and furniture are refused in the refuse container, and the bulk list adds propane tanks, construction, remodeling and demolition debris, asphalt and wood. Construction material has no city route at all, so it is arranged privately, and appliances and furniture move to the bulk appointment instead.
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 a couch, a mattress, an appliance, a hot water heater or another item on the city bulk list.
Cost & conditions
$35 for for the first bulk item at the published bulk trash rate, with 10.00 for each additional item. East Point residential customers on a city solid waste account, with the appointment booked through Solid Waste Services at (404) 902-2650.
Arrange it
Call (404) 902-2650, list the items, and prepare any unit that needs the Freon and door, the tank water or the lawnmower fluids removed before the crew arrives.
Construction, remodeling and demolition debris, concrete, asphalt, wood, dirt, sod, rock, tires, paint, oil, propane tanks and hot ashes are refused, and appliances or furniture left loose in the refuse container will not be taken.

Cost & conditions
No charge. Two free bulk amnesty pickups a year for single-family residents, scheduled by calling Solid Waste Services, after which all bulk collections are charged.
Arrange it
Call (404) 902-2650 to schedule an amnesty pickup, and use it for material that matches the permissible bulk list.
Only two a year, they cannot be carried over, and the same refusals apply, including propane tanks, oil, hot ashes, branches, sod, dirt, rocks, flammable materials, construction debris, tires and paint.
A household with a television, a computer, an exercise machine or another item the city lists neither as permitted nor as refused.
Cost & conditions
Electronics and exercise equipment are named nowhere in the city's collection material and no rate covers them, so the arrangement comes from Solid Waste Services when the household calls.
Arrange it
Call Solid Waste Services at (404) 902-2650, Monday to Friday between 7:30 AM and 4:00 PM, and follow the instruction given for the device.
The city publishes no electronics drop-off and no electronics rate, so a household may need a private recycler for a television or computer, and the material should not be left at the curb in the meantime.
