City collection Furniture is named as acceptable bulky material that may be placed curbside at the time the request is made, though pianos and organs are refused. Furniture is part of the requested bulk collection and the city publishes no furniture rate, so confirm the charge with Public Works at 318-673-6300 when the request is made.
City collection The city names furniture, appliances and tires as acceptable bulky material but never names bedding, so the mattress route has to be confirmed before the piece is set out. Bedding is neither named as acceptable nor refused on the bulky page and the 311 article, so confirm whether a mattress counts as furniture for the requested bulk collection, and what it costs, with Public Works at 318-673-6300.
City collection Appliances are named as acceptable bulky material, and the 311 article lists appliance collection as one of the bulk programme categories. Appliance collection is part of the requested bulk programme and no appliance rate is published, so confirm the unit and any charge with Public Works at 318-673-6300 when the request is made, including how a cooling unit is handled.
City collection Carts go on the curb by 7 a.m. on the collection day and come off the curb by 10 p.m. the same day, waste goes in tied bags of 35 gallons or less, and each address is allowed one can unless another is leased. Garbage collection is part of the city service and no per pickup rate is published, while the city does publish that an additional garbage can is leased for a one time fee of $50.00 and that damaged cans are repaired or replaced at no charge, so confirm the account details with Public Works at 318-673-6300.
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
Will the city take it?
Shreveport collects garbage and trash from addresses inside the city limits, and bulky items are a request service rather than a fixed collection week. A resident calls Public Works at 318-673-6300 or files a Report A Concern, and the pile is then collected separately from the regular garbage on a future day, limited to one pile no larger than fifteen feet by six feet by six feet. Furniture, appliances and tires are the named acceptable material, with a four tire limit per request, and limbs and brush have to be under eight inches across and six feet long. What the city will not take is spelled out just as clearly: building materials from toilets to concrete, gasoline powered tools, auto parts, pianos, organs, swing and gym sets, trampolines, swimming pools and stumps, and it states outright that all construction and remodeling waste has to be hauled off by the contractor or the property owner. Hazardous material is not a curbside item; the city directs residents to a special hazardous waste collection through Shreveport Green.
Carts go on the curb by 7 a.m. on the collection day and come off the curb by 10 p.m. the same day, waste goes in tied bags of 35 gallons or less, and each address is allowed one can unless another is leased.
City cost & eligibility
Garbage collection is part of the city service and no per pickup rate is published, while the city does publish that an additional garbage can is leased for a one time fee of $50.00 and that damaged cans are repaired or replaced at no charge, so confirm the account details with Public Works at 318-673-6300.

Get it ready
Containerize waste in tied bags of 35 gallons or smaller, keep every item within ten feet of the curb, and keep hazardous waste such as oil and paint, hot coals, fireworks and dead animals out of the cart.

Bulk collection is a request service for residential customers, limited to one pile no larger than fifteen feet by six feet by six feet, with furniture, appliances and tires the named acceptable material.
City cost & eligibility
The city publishes the bulky collection programme and its limits but no fee, so confirm the charge and the collection day with Public Works at 318-673-6300 or through Report A Concern when the request is made.
When & how
Request the collection from Public Works at 318-673-6300 or through the online Report A Concern feature, and the material is then picked up on a future collection day, separately from the regular garbage.
Get it ready
Keep the request to one pile no larger than fifteen feet by six feet by six feet, place it within ten feet of the curb but five feet away from carts, mailboxes, fences, poles, parked cars and low limbs or power lines, and keep contractor-generated material out of it because the city does not collect after contractors.

Keep the piece inside the pile limit of fifteen feet by six feet by six feet, keep it out of the garbage cart, and note that pianos and organs are named among the items the city will not collect.
The city names furniture, appliances and tires as acceptable bulky material but never names bedding, so the mattress route has to be confirmed before the piece is set out.
City cost & eligibility
Bedding is neither named as acceptable nor refused on the bulky page and the 311 article, so confirm whether a mattress counts as furniture for the requested bulk collection, and what it costs, with Public Works at 318-673-6300.
When & how
Call Public Works at 318-673-6300 before setting the mattress out and follow the instruction given with the request.
Get it ready
Keep the mattress out of the garbage cart and inside the pile limit if it is accepted, and confirm the item first because the published acceptable list names furniture, appliances and tires rather than bedding.
Appliances are named as acceptable bulky material, and the 311 article lists appliance collection as one of the bulk programme categories.
City cost & eligibility
Appliance collection is part of the requested bulk programme and no appliance rate is published, so confirm the unit and any charge with Public Works at 318-673-6300 when the request is made, including how a cooling unit is handled.

Electronics are not named on the bulky or refuse lists, and the only special collection the city publishes in text is the hazardous waste route through Shreveport Green.
City cost & eligibility
The city publishes no electronics entry of its own, and the household hazardous waste flyer the city links lists appliances, electronics and furniture among the items not accepted at that collection, so confirm whether a television or computer is accepted and what it costs with Public Works at 318-673-6300 or with the special hazardous waste collection the city names at Shreveport Green on 219-1888.
When & how
Call Public Works at 318-673-6300 or Shreveport Green at 219-1888 before setting anything out, and follow the route that is confirmed.
Get it ready
Wipe personal data before handover, keep electronics out of the garbage cart and out of a bulk pile that has not been confirmed, and remove batteries so they are not left in a device that may be refused.
Construction and remodeling waste is excluded from city collection: the city states that all of it has to be hauled off by the contractor or the property owner, and the bulky list refuses building materials.
City cost & eligibility
The city states that Solid Waste does not pick up construction or remodeling waste, that the contractor or property owner has to haul it off, and that the bulky programme refuses building materials such as toilets, carpet, flooring, tile, countertops, cabinets, fencing, concrete, rocks and stones, so there is no city rate to quote and the load moves with a private hauler or the contractor.
When & how
Arrange the removal with the contractor doing the work or with a private container company before demolition or renovation begins.
Get it ready
Keep building material, tree cuttings, carpet replacement and remodeling material out of the carts and out of a bulk request, because the city will not collect them and does not collect after contractors.
Exercise equipment is not named on the acceptable list, and the refusals name swing or gym sets and trampolines, which describe play equipment rather than indoor fitness machines, so the item has to be confirmed.
City cost & eligibility
The acceptable bulky list names furniture, appliances and tires without mentioning fitness equipment, while the refusal list names swing or gym sets, trampolines and swimming pools, so confirm whether a treadmill or weight machine is accepted with Public Works at 318-673-6300 before it is set out.
When & how
Call Public Works at 318-673-6300 before the request and set the machine out only once the item has been confirmed.
Get it ready
Describe the machine when calling, keep it out of the garbage cart, and keep it inside the pile limit if it is accepted, remembering that swing or gym sets and trampolines are refused.
The cart goes on the curb no later than 7 a.m. on the collection morning and comes off the curb by 10 p.m. that day. Waste is containerized in tied bags of 35 gallons or smaller, and everything set out has to be within ten feet of the curb. Each address is allowed one garbage can unless another is leased, damaged cans are repaired or replaced at no charge, backdoor collection is available for customers who need help getting the can out, and holidays and citywide emergencies are announced on the Public Works calendar.
Call Public Works at 318-673-6300 or use the city's Report A Concern feature, because bulk collection is a request service for residential customers only and the pile is collected separately from the garbage on a future day. One pile per request, no larger than fifteen feet by six feet by six feet, placed within ten feet of the curb and five feet away from carts, mailboxes, fences, poles, parked cars and low limbs or power lines. Furniture, appliances and tires may go out when the request is made, tires are limited to four per request, and limbs or brush have to be under eight inches across and six feet long.
The bulky programme refuses building materials including toilets, carpet, flooring, tile, countertops, cabinets, fencing, concrete, rocks and stones, along with gasoline powered tools, auto parts, pianos and organs, swing or gym sets, trampolines, swimming pools and covers, and stumps or roots. Construction and remodeling waste has to be hauled off by the contractor or the property owner. Hazardous waste such as oil and paint never goes in a cart and the city routes it to a special hazardous waste collection through Shreveport Green at 219-1888, while hot coals, fireworks and dead animals are refused in the carts as well.

Use the special hazardous waste collection
A household with oil, paint or another chemical that cannot go in the cart, and a device whose route still needs confirming.
Cost & conditions
The flyer the city links describes the special household hazardous waste collection as free with reservations required, so confirm the current event details, the accepted items and any charge with Shreveport Green at 219-1888 before loading a vehicle.
Arrange it
Call Shreveport Green at 219-1888, which is the route the city's collection sheet gives for hazardous waste such as oil and paint, and ask whether electronics are accepted as well because the city does not publish an electronics list.
The published referral covers hazardous waste rather than electronics, so a television or computer needs its own confirmation, and hazardous material never goes in the garbage or recycling cart.
