Ready for that machine to go? Leave it at the curb and it can be gone today. Choose your equipment, see the exact price and book by 2pm for same-day pickup.
A new use for the same space, once the old machine is outside and gone.
Room for what comes next
Your space can have a new purpose.
A home office. Room for a guest. A little more floor to enjoy. When an old machine is in the way, a clear pickup plan makes the next step easier.
The room is changing.
Book the equipment you are ready to let go of, whether it is one exercise bike or several machines. See the total before making the plan.
A replacement is coming.
Check whether your retailer includes removal. If the old treadmill is still your responsibility, give it a pickup day of its own.
It is not making the move.
Settle the price online, arrange to have it outside, and follow the pickup through text updates and completion photos. One less thing to coordinate before the keys change hands.
Choose by the type of equipment. A brand name does not mean a different item, but a walking pad and a full treadmill do.
Treadmill, walking pad or commercial model?
Household treadmill includes folding home models with a tall console. Choose Walking pad for a compact under-desk model, or Commercial treadmill for a large gym machine. All equipment opens those choices.
An exercise bike, elliptical or rower
Spin, upright, recumbent and air bikes all use Exercise bike, including Peloton and other brands. One elliptical includes its connected base, handles and pedals. Rowing machines and Pilates reformers have their own choices.
Weights, racks and benches
Add together the pounds of loose dumbbells, kettlebells, plates and barbells. Free weights are priced in 10 lb units, rounding the combined weight up. For example, 25 lb uses three units. Add a stand, rack or bench separately if it is going too.

A machine can be too heavy or awkward for a solo move. Arrange suitable help for indoor carrying, stairs or any dismantling needed to reach the outdoor pickup spot.
A pickup day is not an exact arrival window. Tell us before booking about a shared loading area, restricted outdoor access or equipment whose size or setup you are unsure how to select.

Exercise equipment is not named anywhere in the city's item lists, so a machine has to be matched to the bulk waste definition and to the bulky recyclable stream, which the city describes as white goods and similar large metal items.
City cost & eligibility
No published rate names an exercise machine, because the curbside routes are covered by the monthly solid waste fee rather than priced per item. Confirm with the city on 3-1-1 or 225-389-3090 whether the machine goes out as bulk waste or as a bulky recyclable, and check the ten item out-of-cart cap at the same time.
When & how
Use the weekly out-of-cart collection day once the city confirms the machine fits the bulky stream, and keep it out of the garbage cart.
Get it ready
Break the machine down as far as it will come apart, separate any metal frame so it can be handled as a bulky recyclable, keep the parts in one distinct pile, and keep it inside the ten item cap.
The monthly solid waste fee covers twice-a-week garbage for one cart, once-a-week recycling and once-a-week out-of-cart collection. Carts have to be City-Parish carts carrying the seal and a serial number, the lids have to be closed or the cart is not collected, carts need 3 feet of clearance from anything else, and they go out with the metal bar facing the street and the wheels toward the house. The garbage collection page says carts must be in place by 4 a.m. while the services page says recycling carts must be in place by 5 a.m., so the earlier time is the safe one. Extra garbage carts cost 7 dollars a month each and are billed on the same solid waste, sewer and water bill. Service does not run on New Year's Day, Thanksgiving Day or Christmas Day, and a holiday on a collection day moves service to the next scheduled day unless the city notifies residents otherwise.
Large items go out with the weekly out-of-cart collection
Bulk waste and yard waste share one weekly out-of-cart collection, and the city sorts them for the resident. Bulk waste is defined as items that are hard to containerize in a garbage cart, naming furniture, large household items, mattresses, water heaters, tires, white goods and lawnmowers, and it must not be bagged. Yard waste is bagged leaves and grass with brush and trimmings bundled instead, and the three kinds go in distinct piles. Crews collect at most ten out-of-cart items per collection day and only three of those can be bulk waste or recyclables, so a larger clear-out takes more than one week or a private contractor. Brush, branches and tree trimmings cannot exceed 5 feet in length, 6 inches in diameter or 40 pounds per item, and a separate bulky recyclable stream takes white goods such as stoves, washers and refrigerators plus up to four automobile tires at a time.
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.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Exercise equipment removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Baton Rouge.
How much does exercise equipment removal cost in Baton Rouge?+
A household treadmill is $159 as the first item and $85 additional. An elliptical is $159 first and $85 additional; an exercise bike is $119 first and $40 additional. Choose all your items to see the combined price. Loading, transportation and disposal are included, with any applicable sales tax shown before payment.
Can you pick up a treadmill or exercise bike today?+
Book by 2pm in the pickup address’s local time for same-day pickup. Available dates appear at checkout. Have the equipment outside and accessible according to your confirmation. You receive pickup updates and completion photos; we book a day rather than an exact appointment time.
Will you dismantle my treadmill or carry it out of the basement?+
Dropcurb pickup starts outside. Arrange indoor carrying, stairs and any dismantling needed to get your equipment out before pickup. Check the moving instructions for your exact model and arrange suitable help. We load and haul away the equipment from an accessible outdoor spot.
Which option covers a Peloton, spin bike or recumbent bike?+
Choose Exercise bike for one stationary bike, including spin, upright, recumbent and air bikes. Peloton and other brands use the same stationary-bike choice. A treadmill, walking pad and outdoor bicycle are different items, so select their matching options.
How do I book free weights, a weight rack or a bench?+
Enter the combined weight in pounds for your dumbbells, kettlebells, plates and barbells. Booking rounds that total up to the next 10 lb unit: 25 lb uses three units. Stands, racks and benches are separate items and do not include the loose weights. Add each one that is going.
Can a treadmill go out with the trash in Baton Rouge?+
Not in the cart, but it may go out with the weekly out-of-cart collection. Exercise equipment is not named in the city's lists, while bulky recyclables are described as white goods and similar large items and bulk waste covers items too large for a cart, so the machine fits one of those two streams. Confirm which with the city on 3-1-1 before it goes out.Official guidance
