A clear count. An exact price.

Count the bags and boxes, not everything inside.

A few simple choices turn a mixed pile into a clear booking. No need to estimate how much of a truck it might fill.

Filled bags and boxes

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 and containers

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.

Furniture and other larger items

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 household items

Accepted with preparation

Bulk waste is collected on Wednesdays by appointment, free of charge, up to five items per house with each item under forty pounds, and the quarterly Beautify Forest Park Day takes almost anything else from residents.

City cost & eligibility
No charge. No charge for the appointment based bulk collection, which is limited to five bulk items per house per pickup with each item under forty pounds, and no charge at Beautify Forest Park Day for city residents with proof of residency. Excess garbage may be billed separately.
When & how
Call Waste Management at (404) 794-6707 at least one week ahead to book the Wednesday bulk collection, and watch for Beautify Forest Park Day, held quarterly from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. at 330 Forest Pkwy and 4853 Springdale Rd, with the next event on Saturday, October 3.
Get it ready
Put items out no earlier than one day before the confirmed collection date. Keep natural Christmas trees, stumps, logs, dirt, rocks, tires, batteries, automotive parts, paints, oils, gas, propane tanks, construction debris, concrete, gravel, bricks, carpet, chemicals, freon appliances, electronics, outdoor and sports equipment and hazardous or medical waste out of both the bulk pile and the Beautify day load.
Residential sanitation regulations, bulk limits and refusalsBeautify Forest Park Day quarterly drop-offResidential and commercial sanitation guidelines and collection days

Couches and household furniture

Accepted with preparation

Furniture, sofas and chairs are named in the city's bulk waste list, so a couch goes out on one of the free Wednesday appointments, and the county landfill also takes household furnishings for a fee.

City cost & eligibility
No charge. No charge on the appointment based Wednesday bulk collection, within the limit of five items per house and forty pounds per item. A load taken to the Clayton County landfill instead is charged at the scale.
When & how
Book the pickup with Waste Management at (404) 794-6707 at least one week ahead, or take the piece to the Clayton County landfill at 11678 Hastings Bridge Road in Lovejoy, open Monday to Friday 7 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and Saturday 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Get it ready
Keep the piece under forty pounds where possible, because each bulk item is limited to that weight, and put it at the curb no earlier than one day before the confirmed date. Construction debris, carpet, chemicals and electronics may not be mixed into the pile.

Mattresses and box springs

Accepted with preparation

Clayton County prices mattresses directly: five per visit at ten dollars each in addition to the dumping fee, and a mattress also fits the city's Beautify Forest Park Day, which takes almost anything from residents.

City cost & eligibility
$10 per mattress at the Clayton County landfill, where mattresses are limited to five per visit at $10 each in addition to the dumping fee, on a scale that charges $75.00 per ton with a $40 minimum or $40 per load for a light pickup or car without a trailer. Clayton County residents and business owners only, with a current driver's licence or business licence as proof. A mattress is also accepted at the city's Beautify Forest Park Day, which is free to Forest Park residents with proof of residency.
When & how
Take the mattress to the Clayton County landfill at 11678 Hastings Bridge Road in Lovejoy, open Monday to Friday 7 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and Saturday 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. with the second and fourth Saturday closed from October through March, or bring it to Beautify Forest Park Day from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Get it ready
Keep the mattress dry and separate from other material, because all trash has to be separated when it arrives at the county landfill, and note that the city's own Wednesday bulk collection is limited to items under forty pounds, which a mattress usually is not.
Clayton County Landfill hours, rates and accepted materialBeautify Forest Park Day quarterly drop-offResidential sanitation regulations, bulk limits and refusals

Appliances and white goods

Accepted with preparation

Appliances are named in the city bulk list and the county landfill takes appliances, but the city refuses large appliances with Freon, so a refrigerated unit is a separate case.

City cost & eligibility
No charge. No charge on the appointment based Wednesday bulk collection within the five item and forty pound limits, and appliances are among the items the county landfill accepts for a scale fee that starts at $40 per load for a light pickup or car without a trailer.
When & how
Book the Wednesday collection with Waste Management at (404) 794-6707 at least a week ahead, or take the unit to the Clayton County landfill during gate hours, or bring it to Beautify Forest Park Day.
Get it ready
Empty the unit and secure the doors. Keep a unit with Freon out of the city bulk program, because large appliances with Freon are on the city's non-acceptable list, and keep batteries out of every load, because the county landfill cannot accept them.
Residential sanitation regulations, bulk limits and refusalsClayton County Landfill hours, rates and accepted materialBeautify Forest Park Day quarterly drop-off

Televisions, computers and electronics

Special rules apply

Electronics are on the city's non-acceptable list for bulk collection and are refused again at Beautify Forest Park Day, and the county recycling center does not take them, so the route has to be confirmed with the hauler or another programme.

City cost & eligibility
No city or county page read for Forest Park publishes an electronics drop-off or a price. Electronics are refused by the city bulk list, by the Beautify day and by the county recycling center list, so confirm the current route with Waste Management at (404) 794-6707 or the city Public Works Department at (404) 366-4720 before the set or device leaves the property.
When & how
Call Waste Management at (404) 794-6707 or the city at (404) 366-4720 to ask where electronics go, and do not put them in the bulk pile, the Beautify day load or the recycling carts in the meantime.
Get it ready
Wipe stored data where the device powers on, keep cords and accessories with it, and keep televisions and computers out of every city programme, because each one refuses them by name or by category.
Residential sanitation regulations, bulk limits and refusalsBeautify Forest Park Day quarterly drop-offClayton County recycling drop-off center

Construction and demolition debris

Special rules apply

Construction debris, concrete, bricks, gravel and carpet are all on the city's non-acceptable list, and the city code gives Waste Management exclusive rights to supply compactor and roll-off containers inside the city limits.

City cost & eligibility
The city publishes no roll-off rate, so the container price comes from Waste Management when the service is set up at (404) 794-6707. A load taken to the Clayton County landfill instead is charged on its scale, where commercial waste is billed by weight and the commercial truck rate applies.
When & how
Contact Waste Management at (404) 794-6707 to arrange a roll-off or compactor container, since the city code assigns that service exclusively, and plan the load before the work starts.
Get it ready
Keep concrete, cement, gravel, bricks, carpet and construction debris out of the bulk pile and out of the Beautify day load, because the city refuses them there. Empty or fully dried paint cans can go to the county landfill, but liquid paint cannot.
Residential sanitation regulations, bulk limits and refusalsBeautify Forest Park Day quarterly drop-offClayton County Landfill hours, rates and accepted material

Exercise and outdoor equipment

Not on the regular city route

Outdoor and sports equipment is on the city's non-acceptable list, so an exercise machine does not go out on the bulk collection or to the Beautify day.

City cost & eligibility
The city excludes outdoor and sports equipment from its own collection, and publishes no alternative rate, so confirm with Waste Management at (404) 794-6707 whether a machine can go into a rented roll-off container or with another hauler.
When & how
Call Waste Management at (404) 794-6707 before the machine is moved, and keep it out of the bulk pile and the Beautify day load.
Get it ready
Take off loose weights and pedals so the piece can be handled and covered safely, and if it does move in a container, keep it clear of the items the county landfill cannot accept, which are asbestos, batteries, hazardous materials and liquids.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

Book a week ahead and set out the day before

Bulk and yard trimmings collections are free but they are appointment only, so call Waste Management at (404) 794-6707 or book through the hauler's bulk trash page at least one week in advance, with no account needed. The Wednesday route collects up to five bulk items per house with each item under forty pounds, and items may go to the curb no earlier than one day before the confirmed collection date. Carts go out before 7 a.m. and come back in by 9 p.m., five feet either side of the mailbox.

Plan for Beautify Forest Park Day

The city holds Beautify Forest Park Day quarterly from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. at 330 Forest Pkwy and 4853 Springdale Rd, with the next event on Saturday, October 3. Forest Park residents may bring anything for disposal except dirt, bricks, acids, unknown chemicals, flammable liquids and cement, and proof of residency is required. Car tires are limited to four per resident, paint dried with kitty litter is accepted, shredding needs at least three case ream boxes or three thirteen gallon bags per household, and no binders, electronics or other hazardous materials are accepted.

Beautify Forest Park Day quarterly drop-off

Separate the load before the county scale

The Clayton County landfill accepts household waste, household furnishings, appliances and yard waste, and it prices mattresses separately at five per visit with a per piece charge in addition to the dumping fee. All trash has to be separated when it arrives, and proof of county residency or a county business licence is required. Asbestos, any batteries, hazardous materials and liquids cannot be accepted at all, and the scale charges by weight with a minimum for the first thousand pounds or a flat rate for a light pickup or car without a trailer.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

Bulk junk removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Forest Park.

How much does bulk junk removal cost in Forest Park?

A trash bag is $59 as the first item and $10 additional. A filled household box is $59 as the first item. Add your actual items and quantities to see the combined price before booking. Loading, transportation and disposal are included; any applicable sales tax is shown before payment.

Can you pick up bags of junk today?

Book by 2pm in the pickup address’s local time for same-day pickup. Available dates appear at checkout. Have the booked bags and boxes outside and accessible according to your confirmation. You receive pickup updates and completion photos; the booking is for a day rather than an exact arrival time.

Do I count every object inside a bag or box?

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.

Can you pick up a small loose pile of household junk?

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.

Can I book bags, boxes and furniture together?

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. Move everything to an accessible outdoor spot before pickup; indoor carrying and sorting are not included. Keep anything you want to retain apart from the booked items and identify what goes in your photos and notes.

How do I book a bulky item pickup in Forest Park?

Call Waste Management at (404) 794-6707 or use the hauler's bulk trash pickup page at least one week in advance, and there is no need to set up an account. Bulk waste is collected on Wednesdays and limited to five items per house, each under forty pounds, and items go out no earlier than one day before the confirmed date. For a bigger cleanout the city also holds Beautify Forest Park Day quarterly, where residents may bring almost anything except dirt, bricks, acids, unknown chemicals, flammable liquids and cement.Official guidance

Where does a couch go in Forest Park?

On a free bulk appointment. Call Waste Management at (404) 794-6707 at least a week ahead, and the couch is collected on the Wednesday route, within the limit of five items per house and forty pounds per item, set out no earlier than the day before the confirmed date. The Clayton County landfill also takes household furnishings at its scale, which charges light pickup trucks and cars without trailers a flat per load rate.Official guidance

What does it cost to get rid of a mattress in Forest Park?

The Clayton County landfill charges each mattress on top of the dumping fee, and it limits a visit to five mattresses. The scale charges seventy-five dollars a ton with a forty dollar minimum for the first thousand pounds, or a flat forty dollars for a light pickup or car without a trailer, and proof of county residency is required. Forest Park residents can also bring a mattress to the free quarterly Beautify Forest Park Day.Official guidance

Can I put a refrigerator out for bulk collection in Forest Park?

Not a refrigerated one. The city's bulk program names appliances but lists large appliances with Freon as non-acceptable. A washer, dryer, stove or water heater can go out on a free Wednesday bulk appointment booked with Waste Management at (404) 794-6707, and the Clayton County landfill accepts appliances at its scale for a fee that starts at a flat per load rate for a light pickup or car without a trailer.Official guidance

Why will Forest Park not take my television?

Because electronics are refused by every city programme: they are on the non-acceptable list for the bulk collection, and Beautify Forest Park Day states that no electronics or other hazardous materials are accepted. The county recycling drop-off center takes only glass, plastics numbered one and two, cardboard, aluminum cans, newspapers, magazines and phone books. Call Waste Management at (404) 794-6707 or the city at (404) 366-4720 to find the route that does take a television.Official guidance

Who supplies a dumpster for a renovation in Forest Park?

Waste Management does, because the city code gives it exclusive rights to offer compactor and roll-off container service directly to customers inside the city limits, so the container is arranged through the hauler at (404) 794-6707. Construction debris, concrete, cement, gravel, bricks and carpet are all refused in the city's bulk collection and at Beautify Forest Park Day, so a project load needs its own container.Official guidance

Will Forest Park collect a treadmill?

Not through the city programmes. Outdoor and sports equipment is on the non-acceptable list for both the bulk collection and, by category, the Beautify Forest Park Day, which refuses electronics and hazardous material as well. Call Waste Management at (404) 794-6707 to ask whether a machine can go into a rented roll-off container, since the county landfill cannot take batteries, hazardous material or liquids.Official guidance

Who collects trash and bulk items in Forest Park?

Waste Management collects under the city's programme and can be reached at (404) 794-6707, with no account needed for a bulk appointment. Trash runs Monday north of Forest Parkway and Tuesday south of it, recycling Thursday north and Friday south, and bulk and yard trimmings are collected on Wednesdays by appointment booked at least a week ahead. The city Public Works Department answers at (404) 366-4720 or at 745 Forest Parkway.Official guidance

What will Forest Park not take at the curb?

A long list, and it matters because the same items are refused again at Beautify Forest Park Day: natural Christmas trees, stumps, logs, dirt, rocks, tires, batteries, automotive parts, paints, oils, gas, propane tanks, construction debris, concrete, cement, gravel, bricks, carpet, chemicals of any kind, large appliances with Freon, electronics, outdoor and sports equipment, corrosive materials and hazardous or medical waste. Tires and dried paint are only handled at the Beautify day, and mattresses go to the county landfill.Official guidance

What is the fastest way to clear a whole house in Forest Park?

Book the free bulk appointment for what it takes, which is five items per house with each item under forty pounds, then use the quarterly Beautify Forest Park Day for the rest, since residents may bring anything except dirt, bricks, acids, unknown chemicals, flammable liquids and cement. Anything over both of those limits, such as a renovation load, moves in a Waste Management roll-off container, because the city code gives the hauler exclusive rights to provide that service inside the city limits.Official guidance
