You have decided what is going. Now give those bags and boxes a pickup day, with a price you can see before anyone arrives.
Book the unwanted bags and boxes left after packing. Choose an available pickup day before you hand back the keys, and arrange to have them outside.
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.
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 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.
First item / additional item
The highest first-item price applies once. Every remaining item uses its additional-item price. Loading, transportation and disposal are included. Applicable sales tax is shown before payment.

The local disposal guide
Bulk junk removal in Champaign: start with the item’s collection rules, then choose the arrangement that fits.
Reviewed · Sources below
There is no city bulky item pickup, so furniture goes to a donation outlet when it still works and to the licensed hauler for disposal when it does not.
A mattress in good condition can be donated and picked up, while one that is not reusable goes to the hauler or to a transfer station for a fee.
A working appliance can be donated, and a non working unit goes to one of the recyclers that take white goods.
Televisions of every type are free at the bi-annual Champaign County electronics collection, which the City describes as the only free local television route, with year round options limited to donation and CRT monitors at Goodwill.
Construction and demolition material has two named receiving sites, and the City publishes the minimum charge and the no household waste rule at the first one.
Exercise equipment is named nowhere in the City directory, so the machine is confirmed with the hauler before anything is set out.
The handoff matters
Champaign's curbside service belongs to licensed private haulers, and the City states that it collects neither trash nor recycling. Anything that will not fit the cart, including furniture, a mattress, an appliance or an exercise machine, is arranged with the hauler on the account rather than reported to the City.

Furniture and reusable household items go to Immigrant Services of Champaign Urbana, Goodwill or Habitat for Humanity ReStore, mattresses and box springs in good condition can be picked up by Immigrant Services or Empty Tomb, and working appliances go to Immigrant Services or ReStore.

Those refusals are what send a load to the collection events, to a receiving site or to the hauler.

Before you book
Bulk junk removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Champaign.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Through the licensed hauler on the account, because the City does not collect trash and runs no bulky item route of its own. The City's directory suggests donating reusable furniture to Immigrant Services of Champaign Urbana, Goodwill or Habitat for Humanity ReStore and contacting the garbage hauler for disposal of anything that is not reusable.Official guidance
Donate it if it is still in good condition. Immigrant Services of Champaign Urbana may pick up mattresses and box springs and Empty Tomb can arrange pickups in Champaign, Urbana or Savoy. If it is not reusable, contact the garbage hauler for disposal or take it to the Republic Services transfer station at 921 Saline Ct. for a fee.Official guidance
Donate it if it still works. The City lists Immigrant Services of Champaign Urbana and Habitat for Humanity ReStore for working appliances, and for a non working unit it names Best Buy, Mack's Twin City Recycling and Mervis Recycling, with a note to call first for acceptable items and fees.Official guidance
To the bi-annual Champaign County residential electronics collection, where televisions of every type and size are accepted free and registration is required. The City states this is the only way for residents to get rid of old televisions for free locally, and Goodwill takes CRT computer monitors free year round through the Dell Reconnect program.Official guidance
The event takes most consumer electronics, and the City's directory also names it for microwaves, holiday string lights and other small devices that have no year round local recycling route. Cell phones have a standing option through retailer and ecoATM drop off, and the event requires registration each time.Official guidance
To GFL at 910 Saline Ct. in Urbana, which takes construction and demolition material only with no household waste and charges from a published minimum, or to Illini Recycling at 420 Paul Ave. in Champaign. The City's recycling cart refuses building materials, so a project load never goes in the curbside bins.Official guidance
Ask the licensed hauler first, because the City collects no waste itself and its disposal directory does not name exercise equipment. If the machine is mostly metal, a recycler that takes metal may also be an option, though scrap metal is refused in the curbside recycling cart.Official guidance
Licensed private haulers, because the City does not collect trash or recycling at all. Public Works on 217-403-4700 runs the recycling requirements, the multifamily program and the seasonal yard waste collections, while the hauler on the account handles the carts and anything arranged as an extra pickup.Official guidance
The yard waste collections, the holiday tree collection and the multifamily program apply to residential properties inside the Champaign city limits. Recycling through the hauler is required for buildings of up to four units inside the city, while an address outside the city limits sits in a different jurisdiction.Official guidance
That depends on the route rather than on a city rate. Donation is free through the outlets the City lists, the hauler charges whatever its own bulky item terms provide, a mattress drop off at the Republic Services transfer station carries a fee, and construction and demolition material at GFL starts from a published minimum charge.Official guidance
No. The City states there is no permanent local drop off for residents, and the annual state sponsored collection event in the summer is described as the only local option, with registration required and help available on 217-403-4780. The current events accept only oil based paints and stains.Official guidance
Neither has a standing city drop off. Tires depend on occasional county collection events or a tire retailer, and some businesses will only take them when new tires are bought there. Motor oil and gasoline are accepted occasionally by auto parts stores and oil change shops, with the state collection events as the fallback.Official guidance
