Scrap metal

Special rules apply

Scrap metal is not a separate curbside category in Slidell. Metal that comes out of a major appliance or a piece of furniture leaves with the bulky pile, because both are on the published example list, while loose scrap such as pipe, fencing or auto parts has to be confirmed with the contractor or taken to a yard or transfer station that states it accepts metal.

City cost & eligibility
The city and the contractor publish no scrap metal fee, and the nearby transfer station publishes no gate rate, so the acceptance rule and the price have to be confirmed before a load is moved.
When & how
Metal inside a bulky item moves with the alternating north side and south side sweep. Loose scrap is scheduled or delivered on the receiving business's own opening hours.
Get it ready
Keep metal out of the household cart, drain oil or fuel from the item first, and leave tanks holding propane, oxygen or gas out of the pile, because the contractor refuses them.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

Match the pile to your side of the city, not to your garbage day

Bulky and green waste is swept on the north side and the south side of Slidell on alternating weeks, and the crew starts the north sweep in the Breckenridge Subdivision and the south sweep at Carrol Rd and West Hall. Put the pile out on the Sunday night or by 5 a.m. Monday of the week the grapple truck is due on your side, because the crew works that side of the city once and does not come back until the next scheduled week.

Keep the pile clear of obstacles and overhead lines

Leave at least 3 feet between the pile and any mailbox, vehicle, fence, cable box, post or utility box, and keep the material out from under power lines and low hanging trees. Yard waste also stays out of ditches, driveways, the roadway and sidewalks, off a neighbor's property, and away from hydrants and water meter boxes, so the grapple truck can reach the pile from the street.

Household garbage stays inside the 95 gallon cart

Bag the household waste, close the lid to within 6 inches of the top, and leave nothing beside the cart, because bagged items and loose items outside the cart are not collected. Put carts out the night before or by 5 a.m., within 3 feet of the curb and clear of vehicles, mailboxes, hydrants, poles and fences, with the handle facing the house and the lid opening facing the street. Round cans and cans with removable lids are not collected, and a recycling cart left at the curb on the garbage day is dumped as garbage.

City of Slidell and Coastal Environmental Services

Bulky and green waste pickup on the city contract

A household with a couch, a mattress, a major appliance or a green waste pile that can be set out at the curb on the scheduled week for its side of the city.

Cost & conditions
No charge. Included in the city's contracted residential collection service and capped at 8 yards of bulky or green waste per household per month, with no separate item fee published.
Arrange it
Set the pile at the curb on the Sunday night or by 5 a.m. Monday of the week the grapple truck is due on your side of the city, at least 3 feet clear of obstacles and overhead lines.

The contractor refuses contractor generated debris, anything over 8 feet long, debris holding wet paint, gasoline, motor oil or another hazardous material, tires, tanks, and dirt or large chunks of concrete, and the crew does not return to a side of the city until its next scheduled week.

With a new purchase

Roll-off container for a renovation or a large cleanout

A household or a contractor with construction, demolition, clean fill or heavy material that the curbside pile refuses, including anything a hired contractor generated.

Cost & conditions
The city contractor publishes 20, 30 and 40 yard container sizes without a container or tonnage rate, and the nearby transfer station publishes no gate rate, so the price has to be quoted before the container is ordered.
Arrange it
Order a 20, 30 or 40 yard roll-off container from Coastal Environmental Services or another local container company, which delivers the box and collects it on its own schedule.

Ask the container company for its own refusal list: a nearby transfer station's container guidance lists paint, refrigerant, tires, appliances, electronics, medical or infectious waste and hazardous material as items that do not belong in a rental box. A container may not be loaded above the top rail, and soil or concrete may not be loaded above the half level.

Read the transfer station's container guidance

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Slidell's curbside program is the published route for a couch, a mattress, a major appliance or a green waste pile, set out on the alternating north side and south side sweep rather than driven anywhere. A household that wants to move the load itself has no published municipal drop-off, so the practical step is to call Coastal Environmental Services at 985-781-3171 first and ask what the contract will accept or arrange. A nearby transfer station in Mandeville at 68658 LA-59 takes self-hauled loads during published hours on the phone number (985) 893-5308, but it publishes no household accept list and no gate rate, so confirm both before driving there, and remember that its containers refuse paint, refrigerant, tires, appliances and electronics. Glass is the one material with a published free drop-off: the city and Keep Slidell Beautiful collect bottles and jars at the Heritage Park parking lot at the corner of Bayou Lane and Pennsylvania Avenue from 9:00 a.m. to noon on the second Saturday of the month. Renovation material and anything a hired contractor generated leave the curb program entirely and move in a roll-off container at a quoted price.

Transfer station in Mandeville that a household can call about a self-hauled load

Stranco Solid Waste Management Transfer Station

68658 LA-59, Mandeville, LA 70471

The transfer station page publishes no item list of its own. The company's container guidance lists asphalt, concrete, brick, block, cardboard, general household waste, construction and demolition material, clean fill, home renovation material, furniture and metals as accepted in its containers, while paint, refrigerant, tires, appliances and electronics are refused.

Residential gate access, unloading rules and payment are not published for the transfer station, and the accepted-material list is written for rented containers rather than a household load, so call (985) 893-5308 before making the trip.

Monday to Saturday from 7:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. and Sunday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., closed on major holidays.

The transfer station publishes its address and hours without a gate rate or a minimum load charge, so confirm the fee and the accepted material by phone before loading a vehicle.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

Scrap metal removal, from your photo request to the pickup plan in Slidell.

How do I request a scrap metal pickup quote?

Text photos to (844) 879-0892 with your ZIP code, approximate amount and access details. Show the whole pile and a closer view of the material. Our team will confirm the scope, quote and scheduling.

Do you buy scrap metal or pick it up for free?

This is a request for a paid removal quote, not a scrap-buying or free-collection offer. If you want to sell metal, ask a local recycler about its accepted materials and delivery requirements.

How much does scrap metal removal cost?

This service uses a custom quote. Send photos, the approximate amount, your ZIP code and access details. Our team confirms the scope and price before booking; there is no fixed-price catalog item for this pile.

Can you collect it today?

Tell our team your preferred day when you request the quote. Timing depends on the material, amount and access, and is confirmed with your quote. Sending photos does not reserve same-day pickup.

Does Slidell collect scrap metal at the curb?

Only as part of a bulky item. Major appliances and furniture are on the contractor's published bulky example list, and metal inside them leaves with the curb pile on the scheduled week. Loose scrap such as pipe, fencing or auto parts is not a published curbside category, so confirm it with the contractor or with a yard that states it accepts metal.Official guidance

Who collects garbage and bulky items in Slidell?

Coastal Environmental Services collects for the City of Slidell, and the city's own Public Utilities page names it as the city trash company. Garbage runs twice a week on either a Monday and Thursday or a Tuesday and Friday pattern, recycling runs once a week, and bulky and green waste rides a separate grapple truck that works one side of the city at a time. The contract number is 985-781-3171.Official guidance

Which week is bulky waste collected on my street?

Bulky and green waste alternates between the north side and the south side of Slidell, so the pickup week depends on which side of the city your address sits on rather than on your garbage day. The north sweep starts in the Breckenridge Subdivision and the south sweep starts at Carrol Rd and West Hall, and each side is worked once per scheduled week before the truck moves to the other side.Official guidance

How much bulky waste can I put out each month?

The published limit is 8 yards of bulky or green waste per household per month, and the two streams share that allowance. Anything over 8 feet long, any debris holding wet paint, gasoline or motor oil, tires, tanks, dirt and large chunks of concrete, and anything a hired contractor generated are refused in the same pile.Official guidance

Can I take my own items somewhere in Slidell instead of waiting for the truck?

The city publishes no municipal drop-off for household bulky items, so the usual answer is to call Coastal Environmental Services at 985-781-3171 and ask what the contract can arrange. Glass is the exception, with a free drop-off at the Heritage Park parking lot at the corner of Bayou Lane and Pennsylvania Avenue from 9:00 a.m. to noon on the second Saturday of the month, and a transfer station in Mandeville at 68658 LA-59 can be asked about a self-hauled load at (985) 893-5308.Official guidance
