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.

The city publishes no curbside furniture collection. A couch normally leaves a Kansas City, Kansas household at one of the twice-yearly Dumpster Days events, where bulky household items such as mattresses and furniture are free, or through an arrangement the household makes itself.
City cost & eligibility
No curbside furniture price is published, because the weekly collection is a cart service. Dumpster Days takes furniture free from Wyandotte County residents, and anything outside an event is a private arrangement, so confirm the load with WM at 1-800-796-9696 or another hauler before the couch goes out.
When & how
Plan the couch around a Dumpster Days weekend, which the city runs once in spring and once in fall with the 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. window at Indian Springs on 47th and Orville. Outside those weekends there is no municipal pickup day for furniture.
Get it ready
Keep furniture out of the recycling cart, which the city limits to paper, cardboard, cans and plastics, and out of the yard waste stream. Move the pieces to the curb only when an event or a booked hauler is taking them, so sidewalks and alleys stay clear in the meantime.
Washing machines, dryers, stoves, ovens, dishwashers and water heaters have no published curbside collection here, but they do have two local routes: the Dumpster Days events take most appliances without refrigerant at no charge, and MRC Recycling in Kansas City, Missouri accepts them at its weekday public drop-off.
City cost & eligibility
Appliance routes here are event based or drop-off based, and neither publishes a flat curbside price. Dumpster Days takes most appliances without refrigerant free, and MRC Recycling publishes a per-item charge for some units while recycling most household machines at no charge, so confirm the exact appliance at the counter.
When & how
Take appliances to a Dumpster Days weekend in spring or fall, or to MRC Recycling at 2000 E. 19th St in Kansas City, Missouri, which is open Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. with no appointment needed.
Get it ready
Empty and clean the machine, remove loose parts and tie down cords or hoses. Keep appliances out of the recycling cart, which takes paper, cardboard, cans and plastics, and settle the refrigerant question before choosing a route, because a unit that ever held refrigerant goes on the separate drop-off route rather than to the city event.
Weekly collection is a cart service with real limits: containers no heavier than 50 pounds with tight-fitting lids and handles, no metal barrels, and no loose trash. The city publishes no standing curbside appointment for a pile, so the municipal route for bulk junk is the twice-yearly Dumpster Days event.
City cost & eligibility
The weekly service is covered by the monthly residential trash and recycling charge, and no separate price is published for extra material because loose trash is not collected. Use the free Dumpster Days events for bulk household items or arrange a private hauler, and confirm anything unusual with WM at 1-800-796-9696 or 3-1-1.
When & how
Set carts out on the normal trash day, by 7 a.m. and no earlier than 4 p.m. the day before. Bulk household items go to a Dumpster Days weekend in spring or fall, or to a private hauler.
Get it ready
Keep each container at or under 50 pounds with the lid closed and the handles usable, and keep the carts clear of vehicles, fences and mailboxes so the truck can reach them. Anything loose stays where it is, because the city states that loose trash is not collected.
Kansas City, Kansas collects trash and recycling on the same day each week, and carts can go to the curb no earlier than 4 p.m. the day before and no later than 7 a.m. on the collection day. Each container needs a tight-fitting lid, usable handles for lifting and a weight at or under 50 pounds, and metal barrels are not acceptable. The city asks households to keep the carts clear of vehicles, fences and mailboxes and puts trash and recycling on separate sides of the driveway or walkway so the crew can tell them apart at a glance.
The weekly truck is a cart service, not a bulk pickup
Loose trash is not collected, and the city publishes no standing appointment for a pile at the curb. The rule that does exist for a large item is for a mattress, which goes out wrapped in plastic, and rugs, which go out rolled and tied at no more than 4 feet long and 50 pounds. Loose lumber is treated as construction material and is refused, so the pile that a household clears out of a garage has to go to an event or a hauler rather than to the curb.
WyCo Dumpster Days is the free municipal route for bulky household items, and it runs once in spring and once in fall rather than every week. The 2026 dates are May 1 and 2 and October 2 and 3, from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at Indian Springs on 47th and Orville, entered from westbound Orville Avenue. Wyandotte County residents need proof of residency such as a driver's license or utility bill, business and non-profit loads are turned away, and everything between events goes to the MRC Recycling drop-off or a private hauler.
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.

Drop bulky items at a WyCo Dumpster Days event
A household with a mattress, a couch, other furniture, fixtures or a general appliance that the weekly cart cannot take.
Cost & conditions
No charge. Bulky household items are free to Wyandotte County residents who show proof of residency such as a driver's license or utility bill. The event is closed to businesses, non-profits and other commercial entities, and certain electronics carry a separate per-item charge paid in cash with exact change.
Arrange it
Load the vehicle and go to Indian Springs at 47th and Orville, entering from westbound Orville, between 8:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. on an event day. The city publishes a spring weekend and a fall weekend, with May 1 and 2 and October 2 and 3 as the 2026 dates.
The event runs twice a year only, so material that cannot wait needs the MRC Recycling drop-off or a private hauler. Refrigerators and any item containing refrigerant are refused, along with tires, yard and storm debris, household hazardous waste, construction and demolition material, fencing, and any business or non-profit load.
A household with a television, monitor, computer, phone, cable, small appliance, or a refrigerant appliance such as a refrigerator, freezer, air conditioner or dehumidifier.
Cost & conditions
Most electronics carry no charge here, and the charged categories are published per item: $5 per CRT monitor, $10 each for refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners and dehumidifiers, $20 each for LED, LCD and plasma televisions, and $30 to $50 for CRT televisions by size. Confirm the exact model and the current price at the counter.
Arrange it
Drive to 2000 E. 19th St, Kansas City, Missouri, open Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. with no appointment needed and closed most major holidays. Staff can help unload heavy items, and credit, debit, cash and checks are accepted.
MRC Recycling does not accept mattresses, furniture, tires, wood, glass, liquids, chemicals, paint or hazardous waste, so it does not replace the city events for bulky furniture or the county centers for household chemicals.

Haul construction material to a landfill
A household with lumber, renovation debris or a demolition load that the weekly curbside service will not take.
Cost & conditions
The city publishes no construction rate, because weekly collection does not take the material. The Johnson County Landfill and the two construction and demolition landfills set their own load pricing, so confirm the load and the tipping charge with the site before hauling.
Arrange it
Take the load to the Johnson County Landfill at 17955 Holliday Drive in Shawnee, open Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., or to APAC-KS Stanley at 7100 W. 167th Street in Overland Park or Asphalt Sales Company at 23200 W. 159th Street in Olathe, which the county FAQ names for construction and demolition debris.
These sites take construction and demolition material rather than household trash or recyclables, and each sets its own accepted list and load pricing. Keep treated, painted and regulated material out of the yard waste stream, where the city takes only leaves, grass, limbs and similar material.
47th Street and Orville Avenue, Kansas City, KS 66102

Mattresses, furniture, tires, wood, glass, liquids, chemicals, paint, hazardous waste, broken bulbs and tanks are not accepted. Televisions, monitors and refrigerant appliances carry the published per-item charges, and the site is a commercial drop-off rather than a residential collection service.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Bulk junk removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Kansas City.
How much does bulk junk removal cost in Kansas City?+
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.
Will the city pick up a couch in Kansas City, Kansas?+
The city publishes no curbside furniture collection, so a couch normally leaves at one of the WyCo Dumpster Days events, where bulky household items such as mattresses and furniture are free to Wyandotte County residents who show proof of residency. Outside those event weekends the household arranges the removal itself, which is why it pays to check the next event dates before booking anything else.Official guidance
Where can I take a washer or dryer in Kansas City, Kansas?+
The WyCo Dumpster Days events accept most appliances without refrigerant, including general household machines, at no charge for Wyandotte County residents who show proof of residency. MRC Recycling at 2000 E. 19th St in Kansas City, Missouri is the year-round alternative and recycles most household appliances with no fee, so a washer or dryer still has a route between events.Official guidance
What are the limits on what the city will collect at the curb?+
Trash has to sit inside a container no heavier than 50 pounds with a tight-fitting lid and usable handles, and metal barrels are not acceptable. Loose trash is left behind, and the city publishes no standing curbside collection for a bulk pile, so bulky household items belong at a WyCo Dumpster Days weekend or with a private hauler.Official guidance
Who collects trash in Kansas City, Kansas?+
Waste Management collects it under a contract with the Unified Government of Wyandotte County and Kansas City, Kansas, managed by the Public Works solid waste team. Trash and recycling run on the same weekly day, the set-out window opens at 4 p.m. the day before until 7 a.m. on collection day, and the 2026 monthly charge for the pair is billed to the household. A building of five or more units is different, because collection there is handled by the property owner or manager rather than by the city contract.Official guidance
What is WyCo Dumpster Days and what does it take?+
WyCo Dumpster Days is the Unified Government's free bulky item event for Wyandotte County residents, run once in spring and once in fall at Indian Springs on 47th and Orville. Residents who show proof of residency can bring mattresses, furniture, fixtures, microwaves, general appliances without refrigerant and most electronics, with a per-item charge only on the heavy display types. Refrigerators and any item containing refrigerant are refused, as are tires, yard and storm debris, construction material and business loads.Official guidance
Does the city pick up large items at the curb?+
Only in a narrow way. The published curbside rules cover a mattress, which goes out wrapped in plastic, and a rug, which goes out rolled and tied at no more than 4 feet long and 50 pounds. There is no standing curbside appointment for furniture, appliances or a general pile, and loose trash is left at the curb, so those items go to a WyCo Dumpster Days weekend or to a private hauler instead.Official guidance
Where do refrigerators and air conditioners go?+
They go to MRC Recycling at 2000 E. 19th St in Kansas City, Missouri, which takes refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners and dehumidifiers every weekday for a published per-unit charge. The city events are not the answer here, because WyCo Dumpster Days refuses refrigerators and any item containing refrigerant, and the Recycling & Yard Waste Center does not take appliances either.Official guidance
