You don’t need to guess how much space your furniture fills in a truck. Match each piece to the catalog, then add its quantity. Your total updates as you go.
Tables and chairs
Choose the table, then add each chair separately. Coffee tables, side tables and dining tables have their own options. A large or substantially heavy table has a different choice.
Dressers and mirrors
Match the dresser’s overall size. Add a separate dresser mirror as its own item if it is leaving too. Empty drawers and keep the belongings you want before moving the dresser outside.
Desks and bookshelves
Choose by construction, not height alone. A basic desk is different from a heavy desk with a substantial body. A tall, lightweight bookcase can still be a standard bookshelf. Empty it first.

Household furniture is bulky material, so a couch goes out during a heavy trash week inside the three item allowance at no additional cost, with anything beyond the three scheduled and paid for in advance.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Three items per property at no additional cost in each heavy trash week, spring and fall, with extra items paid and scheduled through Priority Waste.
When & how
Set the piece out during the published heavy trash week, or call Priority at 855-927-8365 or 586-228-1200 at least 48 hours ahead to arrange a paid collection outside the allowance.
Get it ready
Count the piece against the three item allowance, keep building refuse and construction debris out of the pile, and keep the curb clear for the collection crew.
Lawrence collects heavy trash in the first full week of May and the first full week of October, with the 2026 weeks published as May 4 to 8 and October 5 to 9. Each property may place three items at the curb in the spring and three more in the fall at no additional cost, which the city ordinance matches by allowing up to three bulky items during the Board of Works cleaning events. Anything beyond the three is paid for and scheduled with Priority Waste at 855-927-8365 or 586-228-1200 at least 48 hours before it goes out.
What the sanitation account costs and what an overage tag covers
The base solid waste and recycling fee is a published monthly amount for a household with one trash and one recycling container, and it rises each January 2. A monthly senior discount is available to one and two person households where someone is 65 or older and water use stays at or under 7,500 gallons a month, and those households cannot rent extra containers. An extra container carries a monthly charge with a ceiling of two trash and two recycling containers, a replacement container carries its own published charge, and an overage tag for a bag or box that does not fit the container is bought at the Department of Public Works. Each amount is listed in the published fee schedule and in the charge records here.
Recycling goes into the provided 95 gallon recycling cart and the city lists clean plastic bottles and containers marked 1, 2, 4, 5 and 7, clean food and beverage cans or cartons, paper, clean flattened cardboard and paperboard, and clear or coloured glass bottles. A former cart cannot be used, and an additional container is requested through the city form. Trash that will not fit the container is handled with an overage tag rather than a loose pile, and the city's Department of Public Works at 9001 East 59th Street sells them.
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.
