You have decided what is going. Now give those bags and boxes a pickup day, with a price you can see before anyone arrives.
Book the unwanted bags and boxes left after packing. Choose an available pickup day before you hand back the keys, and arrange to have them outside.
You do not need a whole house of junk. Select the bags, boxes and larger items you actually have. Your combined price is shown online.
When the next collection does not fit your plans, choose a Dropcurb pickup day. Updates keep you informed, and completion photos show when the booked items are gone.
A clear count. An exact price.
A few simple choices turn a mixed pile into a clear booking. No need to estimate how much of a truck it might fill.
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 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.
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.
First item / additional item
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
Bulk junk removal in Quincy: start with the item’s collection rules, then choose the arrangement that fits.
Reviewed · Sources below
The city provides weekly curbside trash and recycling for one- to eight-family dwellings and condominiums through Capitol Waste Services, with collection Monday through Friday.
Two bulky items may go out each week, and the city names sofas, chairs, recliners and lawn furniture as the kind of piece the curbside crew will take.
Furniture goes out with the bulky allowance, and the division states that curbside pickup of furniture is collected without calling ahead.
A mattress no longer goes out on the regular trash day: the city routes the pickup through South Shore Recycle, which books the collection around vehicle and staff availability.
Stoves, refrigerators, washing machines, dryers, dehumidifiers and water heaters are collected curbside by appointment, while the DPW Yard takes appliances except refrigerators and dishwashers.
Televisions, monitors, computers, keyboards and printers are collected curbside by appointment, and all household electronics are also taken at the DPW Yard, where only 2 televisions per household per year are allowed.
The city sites refuse construction debris, contractors are responsible for their own material, and a homeowner doing the work has to hire a private hauler or use one of the two named stations.
The city disposal guide names exercise equipment among the large metal items that may be taken to the DPW Yard, which accepts all scrap metal.
Single stream recycling has run since 2008, it is collected on the regular trash day, and the DPW Yard takes single stream material, metal and electronics from residents.
The handoff matters
Trash and recycling must be ready by 7:00 AM on the collection day, nothing may be placed out more than one day before the collection, and empty containers have to be removed within one day of pickup. Keep the container near 32 gallons, because the collectors are not required to lift anything over 50 lbs, and remember that a holiday in the week pushes that day and every remaining collection day that week back by one day.
Weekly curbside trash collection, haulers and set-out rulesTwo bulky items may go out each week, and the city names sofas, chairs, recliners and lawn furniture. Carpet has to be cut into 3 foot lengths, rolled and tied, with no more than 5 rolls at a time, and wood goes out only when it is bundled and tied, kept to 1 to 3 inches in diameter and under 3 feet long, placed in a barrel and kept under 50 lbs.
How can I get rid of, the item by item disposal guideWeekly curbside trash collection, haulers and set-out rulesThe DPW Yard behind 55 Sea Street is for Quincy residents only and opens Monday through Friday 7:30 AM to 3:00 PM and Saturday 7:30 AM to 2:30 PM within the 2026 season window that ends December 5, 2026. It accepts yard waste, single stream recycling, textiles, electronics, scrap metal, appliances, books, CDs, DVDs and mercury items, but it is not a landfill and refuses household trash, wood, tires, oil and gasoline, latex and oil paint, chemicals and construction debris. A valid Massachusetts driver's licence is required, and commercial plates are barred without prior written approval from the Commissioner's Office.
DPW Yard drop-off hours, accepted items and refusalsThe city holds a household hazardous waste drop-off day twice a year at the DPW Yard, and the next scheduled date is still to be announced. The event is for Quincy residents only with a Massachusetts driver's licence showing a Quincy address, material stays in its original container with caps tightened, and chemicals are never mixed. Accepted material includes oil-based paint, fuels, poisons, pool chemicals, solvents, mercury items and Ni-Cad and lithium batteries, which are also taken year round at the yard. Tires, latex paint, asbestos, ammunition, prescription medicines and syringes are refused.
