A clear count. An exact price.

Count the bags and boxes, not everything inside.

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.

Weekly bulky item collection

Accepted with preparation

Large items that will not fit the cart are collected every week on the same day as the rest of the route, including appliances, furniture, televisions and up to five automobile tires.

City cost & eligibility
The official bulky page does not publish a separate item price. Confirm your eligible service account and load with Acadiana Waste Services at 337-205-7710.
When & how
Weekly on the regular collection day. AWS requests advance notice for large items, though it is not mandatory.
Get it ready
Place each item at least three feet from carts, mailboxes, yard waste piles and parked cars, keep overhead trees and utility lines clear above it, and leave the collection truck a clear path to it. Automobile tires are limited to five per week and to residential use. Bagged items, anything small enough for the cart, construction and remodeling debris including toilets, fencing in wood, plastic or metal, and hazardous waste do not belong in the bulky pile.

Mattresses and box springs

Special rules apply

Bedding is not named in the City bulky list, so the piece has to be confirmed with the hauler before it goes to the curb.

City cost & eligibility
The City publishes no rate for bedding and does not name mattresses among the bulky items, so call the hauler on 337-205-7710 and confirm whether the mattress rides the weekly bulky collection or needs another arrangement.
When & how
If the hauler confirms the piece, it goes out with the bulky items on the weekly collection day, at the curb before the service date.
Get it ready
Confirm mattress and box-spring acceptance and any wrapping requirement with AWS. If accepted, leave three feet clear of carts, mailboxes, yard piles and parked cars.
City large and bulky items page with the weekly hauler collection, the accepted list, the tire limit, the exclusions and the construction debris options

Appliances and cooling units

Accepted with preparation

Appliances are named in the City bulky item list and ride the weekly collection, and the household chemical event refuses them.

City cost & eligibility
The official bulky page does not publish a separate item price. Confirm your eligible service account and load with Acadiana Waste Services at 337-205-7710.
When & how
Every week with the bulky stream on the collection day for the address, at the curb before the service date.
Get it ready
Empty the unit and place it with the bulky items rather than in the cart, keeping three feet of clearance from carts, mailboxes, parked cars and yard piles. Ask the hauler on 337-205-7710 how a refrigerator, freezer or air conditioner that still holds refrigerant should be prepared before it is put out with the other bulky items, because the City publishes no degassing or tagging step for the curbside collection. Do not take it to the household chemical event, because appliances are refused there.

Televisions and household electronics

Accepted with preparation

Televisions are named in the bulky item list and go out weekly, and a convenience center planned for Dugas Road expects to take electronics when it opens.

City cost & eligibility
The official bulky page does not publish a separate item price. Confirm your eligible service account and load with Acadiana Waste Services at 337-205-7710.
When & how
With the bulky stream on the weekly collection day, at the curb before the service date. The planned convenience center is not open yet, so it should not be used until the City announces that construction has finished.
Get it ready
Keep the television out of the black and red cart and set it with the bulky items, three feet clear of carts, mailboxes, parked cars and yard piles. The household chemical event refuses televisions of any kind along with CRT monitors, copiers and other electronic items, so the curb is the route for a television, and a smaller electronic device needs one of the retailer or specialty programs the City lists in its disposal guide.

Construction and remodeling debris

Not on the regular city route

Construction and remodeling debris is refused in the bulky pile, and the City names two options: a rented dumpster or a construction and demolition landfill.

City cost & eligibility
The City publishes no rate for construction debris removal because it does not collect it, naming a dumpster rental or a construction and demolition landfill instead, so confirm locations and pricing with the Environmental Quality Division on 337-291-8529 or with the container company.
When & how
Arranged outside the curbside service, either through a rented dumpster or by delivering the material to a construction and demolition landfill, and the load does not belong at the curb on collection day.
Get it ready
Keep construction and remodeling debris, repair and demolition material, toilets and fencing in wood, plastic or metal out of the bulky pile and out of the cart, because the City excludes all of them from curbside collection. The City strongly recommends requiring a contractor to remove and dispose of waste when work is hired out, and the convenience center planned for Dugas Road expects to accept construction debris once it opens.

Exercise equipment

Special rules apply

Exercise equipment is named nowhere in the City material, so the machine is confirmed with the hauler before it goes out.

City cost & eligibility
The City publishes no rate for an item it does not name, so call the hauler on 337-205-7710 and confirm whether the machine is collected with the bulky items and what preparation it needs.
When & how
If it is accepted, the machine goes out with the bulky stream on the weekly collection day, at the curb before the service date.
Get it ready
Describe the machine to AWS and obtain preparation instructions before moving it. If accepted, maintain the published three-foot clearance and unobstructed overhead access.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

Four streams, one day a week

Garbage, recycling, yard waste and bulky waste are all collected on the same day, once a week, so the work is in separating them before the truck arrives. Household waste goes in the black and red cart with the lid closed, yard waste goes out bagged or in a 40 gallon can under 50 pounds, and bulky items wait at the curb. Bagged garbage and anything that fits in the cart never belong in the bulky pile.

The convenience center is not open yet

The Environmental Quality Convenience Center at 400 Dugas Road is under construction, and the City states that the accepted materials and procedures may change before it opens. Once open it would take garbage, bulky waste, construction debris, scrap metal, recycling material, electronics, tires and other residential waste from City of Lafayette and unincorporated parish residents at no charge, with published limits and a fee for residents from outside those areas.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

Bulk junk removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Lafayette.

How much does bulk junk removal cost in Lafayette?

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.

When does Lafayette collect bulky junk?

Acadiana Waste Services collects bulky items weekly on the household collection day, using a separate vehicle from regular trash.

Ordinary bagged trash belongs in the cart with its lid closed. The bulky route is for items too large for the cart.
