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 Bowling Green: start with the item’s collection rules, then choose the arrangement that fits.
Reviewed · Sources below
A couch, mattress, appliance or other large item is not part of the weekly cart service. The franchised hauler collects bulk items only where its local rules allow and only after the pickup is arranged, and nothing about the item list or the price is published for Bowling Green.
A couch or other household furniture has two documented routes here, a bulk pickup arranged with the franchised hauler or a roll off container, and a clean usable piece can be donated instead of thrown away.
A mattress leaves Bowling Green as a confirmed bulk item or in a rented roll off container. Neither the city, the county nor the state's Warren County facility list publishes a mattress programme or a mattress rate.
A washer, dryer, stove or similar appliance can leave as a bulk item, in a roll off container or at a Warren County recycler that lists white goods. A unit that still works can be donated, while a cooling appliance follows a separate path.
A cooling appliance is never an ordinary pickup item. The hauler and the receiving site both have to agree, because the recycling programme refuses appliances and the local lists name white goods without publishing a refrigerant rule.
Televisions and computers are refused by the hauler's recycling programme and by its roll off containers, so they move through the county's Household Hazardous Waste Day e scrap collection or a local retail drop off.
Exercise equipment is not named in any Bowling Green collection list, so a treadmill, exercise bike or weight machine moves as a confirmed bulk item or through a roll off container.
Remodeling debris is not part of the cart service. The practical routes are a rented roll off container or the Kenway Contracting construction and demolition debris landfill on Louisville Road.
The handoff matters
Bowling Green Municipal Utilities provides billing service for Scott Waste Management and states that Scott Waste provides sanitation service to all residential customers in the city, while Warren County's environmental planning division states that Fiscal Court issues and manages solid waste and recycling franchises. The city code closes the loop: only the county's designated franchisees may collect residential solid waste, recyclable material or yard waste inside Bowling Green, private scavengers and private collectors are prohibited, and solid waste may only go to a properly permitted landfill site. Containers also have to stay out of the paved portion of a street, right of way or sidewalk, and access to them may not be blocked.

The same pages warn that acceptable items vary, that some appliances may carry an additional fee in a roll off container, and that batteries, chemicals and electronics are refused in that container. Plan the pickup first, then sort the restricted material into its own route.

Before you book
Bulk junk removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Bowling Green.
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.
By an arranged bulk pickup or a rented container rather than by the weekly cart. Scott Waste lists mattresses, washers, dryers, furniture and grills among the bulky items it may collect, but it warns that availability and acceptable items vary by location and that the pickup date must be confirmed by the local office, which answers at 270-783-4016. The roll off service accepts garbage, remodeling debris, appliances and furniture, and refuses batteries, chemicals and electronics.Official guidance
Only once the local franchise office has agreed to it and confirmed the date. Scott Waste names furniture among the bulky items it may collect, but it publishes no item list or price for Bowling Green and asks customers to confirm the pickup at 270-783-4016. Furniture is also named in the roll off container service, and the university's community list points usable pieces to Habitat for Humanity ReStore, which takes unbroken wooden furniture and lumber.Official guidance
To a bulk pickup arranged with the franchised hauler, which names mattresses among the bulky items it may collect and answers at 270-783-4016, or into a rented roll off container. The state's 2025 Warren County recycling facility list shows no mattress category and no government drop off, and the hauler publishes no pickup price, so both the item and the cost have to be confirmed before the mattress is set out.Official guidance
With a bulk pickup arranged through the franchise office at 270-783-4016, with a rented roll off container, or by taking the unit to a Warren County recycler that lists white goods. Southern Recycling on Clay Street and Parrish Recycling Center on Old Louisville Road both appear under white goods in the state's 2025 recycling facility list, and the university's local list notes that working appliances can be donated while broken ones go to a scrapyard.Official guidance
No. The franchised hauler's recycling programme refuses appliances, its roll off service warns that some appliances carry an additional fee, and the state's Warren County recycling list names white goods for the local recyclers without publishing a refrigerant rule or a household price. Call Scott Waste at 270-783-4016 and the receiving site to confirm the unit before it is loaded.Official guidance
To the county's Household Hazardous Waste Day, which names plasma, LED and LCD televisions along with cell phones, computer CPUs, laptops, tablets and monitors, with the next event on Saturday, October 31, 2026 at 999 Lauren Avery Drive from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Between events the university's local list names Best Buy on Campbell Lane for select small electronics, and Kentucky notes that households are not barred from putting electronics in the trash.Official guidance
There is no named programme. The city code, the county solid waste pages and the hauler's bulky item list do not mention exercise equipment, so call the franchise office at 270-783-4016 to ask whether the machine counts as a bulky item and what it costs, or have a roll off container delivered when a larger cleanout is going at the same time.Official guidance
With a roll off container or a trip to the construction and demolition debris landfill. Scott Waste's roll off service accepts remodeling debris along with garbage, appliances and furniture, and refuses batteries, chemicals and electronics. Kenway Contracting on Louisville Road appears in the state's Warren County recycling facility list as a construction and demolition debris landfill open weekdays to 5 p.m. and Saturday mornings.Official guidance
Through the utility bill. Bowling Green Municipal Utilities states that it provides billing service for Scott Waste Management, which it names as the sanitation provider for all residential customers in the city, and the county treats collection as a franchised service that Fiscal Court issues and manages. The refuse and recycling service therefore arrives with the BGMU bill, and sanitation questions go to Scott Waste at 270-783-4016.Official guidance
Scott Waste describes a 96 gallon cart for household service and asks residents to place it where the automated arm can reach it. Its residential page also invites customers to ask about a special pickup for large items rather than assuming one is included, and its bulk page makes the same point, so anything the cart cannot hold is arranged separately with the same office at 270-783-4016.Official guidance
The hauler's recycling guide takes plastic containers, steel and aluminum containers, paper and cardboard packaging, glass bottles and jars, foam packaging and plastic bags or overwrap. The same guide refuses propane cylinders, flares, needles, electronics, flammable liquids, household batteries, butane and helium tanks, paint, ammunition, appliances, scrap metal, wiring and cords, light bulbs, garden hoses and furniture cushions. Kentucky notes that household electronics are not banned from landfill disposal, but the local recycling programme still does not want them in the bin.Official guidance
