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.

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 in the bulky examples, the white goods definition, the bulk metal definition or the electronics schedule, so the city has to confirm the machine before it goes out. If the city accepts it, the machine uses the single bulky item allowed for that week.
City cost & eligibility
The city publishes no rate for an exercise machine because it is not a named category. Confirm acceptance, the route and any charge with the Department of Public Works at 508-821-1431 before setting the machine out.
When & how
Call the Department of Public Works during business hours before the normal trash day, and if the city accepts the machine, put it out as that week's single bulky item.
Get it ready
Describe the machine and its size when calling, ask whether any electronics inside it have to be handled separately as e-waste, and keep it off the curb until the city confirms the item.
Household trash goes out in official City of Taunton pay-as-you-throw bags, closed or tied and not over 50 pounds, and closed bags may sit inside a plastic or metal barrel of no more than 35 gallons with the loaded barrel also staying under 50 pounds. Barrels need handles or handholds and a top diameter no smaller than the rest of the barrel, and bags may not be tied to the barrel. The city does not sell the bags directly, so residents buy them from the approved retailers in the city, and waste that is not in an official bag is not collected.
One bulky item per week, and the carve-outs are strict
The city collects a single bulky item per week from each residential unit that has a pay-as-you-throw set out, and the item leaves on the normal trash day. A mattress, a box spring, white goods, bulk metal, a television, a computer monitor, a sofa bed and a recliner are all outside that allowance and need one of the other routes, so a pile built from the wrong categories will not be taken.
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.
City of Taunton Department of Public Works, Republic Services and HandUp

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Exercise equipment removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Taunton.
How much does exercise equipment removal cost in Taunton?+
A household treadmill is $159 as the first item and $85 additional. An elliptical is $159 first and $85 additional; an exercise bike is $119 first and $40 additional. Choose all your items to see the combined price. Loading, transportation and disposal are included, with any applicable sales tax shown before payment.
Can you pick up a treadmill or exercise bike today?+
Book by 2pm in the pickup address’s local time for same-day pickup. Available dates appear at checkout. Have the equipment outside and accessible according to your confirmation. You receive pickup updates and completion photos; we book a day rather than an exact appointment time.
Will you dismantle my treadmill or carry it out of the basement?+
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.
Will Taunton collect a treadmill or an exercise machine?+
The city does not name exercise equipment in its bulky examples, its white goods definition, its bulk metal definition or its e-waste schedule, so acceptance has to be confirmed first. Call the Department of Public Works at 508-821-1431, and if the machine is accepted it uses the single bulky item allowed that week.Official guidance
Who collects trash and bulky items in Taunton?+
The City of Taunton Department of Public Works runs the program with its collection contractor Republic Services, and residents reach the department at 508-821-1431 at 90 Ingell Street. Trash is collected weekly in official city pay-as-you-throw bags, recycling every other week on the same day, and one bulky item per week is allowed from a residential unit that has a bag set out.Official guidance
How many bulky items can go out at once?+
One item per week from each residential unit that sets out official city pay-as-you-throw bags, and only for buildings of up to four units. A mattress, a box spring, a sofa bed, a recliner, white goods, bulk metal, a television or a computer monitor does not count against that item because none of them is accepted in the bulky pile.Official guidance
What bags do I need for curbside trash in Taunton?+
Official City of Taunton orange pay-as-you-throw bags, which the city does not sell directly. Approved retailers in the city sell them, and waste left at the curb outside those bags is not collected apart from a permitted bulky item, a scheduled white goods or yard waste collection, and the dumpster service that is part of the municipal contract.Official guidance
