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.
Your place. One easy pickup plan.
A house, a condo or an apartment. Choose an accessible outdoor spot that works for your property. You arrange the move outside; we take it from there.
Measure doors and turns, and check the manufacturer’s moving instructions. Folding and moving methods vary by model. Have any required disassembly handled before pickup; we start outside.

You’re in the loop. Until it’s gone.
Confirmation when you book. A heads-up before arrival. Photos when it’s done.
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.
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 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.

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.
