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.
Your place. One easy pickup plan.
A house, a condo or an apartment. Choose an accessible outdoor spot that works for your property. You arrange the move outside; we take it from there.
Measure doors and turns, and check the manufacturer’s moving instructions. Folding and moving methods vary by model. Have any required disassembly handled before pickup; we start outside.

You’re in the loop. Until it’s gone.
Confirmation when you book. A heads-up before arrival. Photos when it’s done.
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 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.
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.
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.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Exercise equipment removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Forest Park.
How much does exercise equipment removal cost in Forest Park?+
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 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
