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.
You want to know it is handled.
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 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.

Smyrna runs a work order large item programme for household items too big for the cart, charging a per item fee and collecting on Thursdays with no pickups during holiday weeks.
City cost & eligibility
$30 per large item collected through the city work order programme. Smyrna residential sanitation customers, with the request made online through the Service Request option or by telephone to Public Works before the weekly deadline.
When & how
Place the work order before the weekly deadline and set the items out for the Thursday collection, checking the current deadline because the city publishes it as Wednesday at 3:30 p.m. on one page and Monday at 4:30 p.m. on another, and remembering that no large items are collected during a holiday week.
Get it ready
Keep only general household waste in the carts, bagged and loose of debris, and keep the prohibited items out of the pile: hazardous waste, anything containing refrigerant, pressure cylinders, oxygen tanks, batteries, paint, rubber tires, yard waste, inert building material, motor oil and cooking oil. Refrigerators, freezers and air conditioning units are not collected at all.
Large items run on a work order with a weekly deadline
Furniture, appliances and mattresses do not go out with the weekly garbage in Smyrna. A resident requests a large item collection online through the city's Service Request option or by calling the Public Works Department at (770) 431-2850, pays a per item fee, and the collection is scheduled for a Thursday. The two city pages print different weekly deadlines, Wednesday at 3:30 p.m. on the sanitation page and Monday at 4:30 p.m. on the yard waste and large item page, so confirm which applies when the request is placed. No large items are collected during a holiday week.
What the carts take, and what the city refuses outright
Only city-provided carts are collected, all garbage has to be bagged with no loose debris inside, and only general household waste belongs there. The city lists these items as prohibited within the city and directs them to an appropriate recycling facility or approved landfill: hazardous waste, anything containing refrigerant, pressure cylinders, oxygen tanks, batteries, paint, rubber tires, yard waste, inert building material, motor oil and cooking oil. Refrigerators, freezers and air conditioning units are no longer picked up on a large item collection either, so a cooling appliance needs a different route entirely.
Yard waste has its own Monday schedule and paper bag rule
Leaves, grass clippings and small sticks or brush go out in paper bags, because plastic bags are prohibited, and no rocks or dirt belong in the bag. Limbs, branches and small trees no wider than eight inches and no longer than four feet are collected on Mondays and have to be at the curb by 7 a.m., placed away from trees, power lines and fences. There is no yard debris pickup during a holiday week, and material from a tree service stays the tree service's responsibility rather than the city's.
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 Smyrna household with furniture, a mattress or box spring, or an appliance that the city still accepts and that will not fit in the cart.

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.
