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 Kalamazoo: start with the item’s collection rules, then choose the arrangement that fits.
Reviewed · Sources below
Kalamazoo collects couches, damaged furniture and other large household goods at the curb four times a year, and city residents can also bring the same items to a free drop-off day at Republic Services.
Mattresses are named on the city's accepted bulk trash list and on the free drop-off day list, so a city household has two routes that cost nothing extra.
A broken appliance without refrigerant goes out with the city's bulk trash or to the free drop-off day, and the metal yards on King Highway and Glendenning Road buy appliances, microwaves, tools and wiring.
No Kalamazoo program names a treadmill, elliptical or weight machine. A bulky machine reads as a large household item, and a metal-heavy frame is scrap that a local yard will buy.
The handoff matters
Place bulk items at the curb starting at 7 a.m. the day before your collection and have everything out by 6 a.m. on the collection day, because the city treats an early or late pile as a nuisance. Anything the crew does not take has to be off the curb within two days after the pickup in your area, and a missed bulk pickup should be reported to 311 or (269) 337-8000 within 48 hours.
Curbside bulk trash program, accepted items and set-out rulesView from the Curb fall and winter 2026 guidePut material in open boxes or clear bags so the contents can be identified, never in black or opaque bags, and do not leave a loose pile of junk. Each collection is limited to 7.5 cubic yards, which is about a pickup truck load. Cut carpet into 4 x 4 foot squares and roll it, cut fencing into 4 x 4 foot sections, and deface, bag and label anything infested with bedbugs or cockroaches.

Before you book
Bulk junk removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Kalamazoo.
A trash bag is $59 as the first item and $10 additional. A filled household box is $59 as the first item. Add your actual items and quantities to see the combined price before booking. Loading, transportation and disposal are included; any applicable sales tax is shown before payment.
Book by 2pm in the pickup address’s local time for same-day pickup. Available dates appear at checkout. Have the booked bags and boxes outside and accessible according to your confirmation. You receive pickup updates and completion photos; the booking is for a day rather than an exact arrival time.
No. Count the filled bags or boxes using the matching choice. Books and media go in Filled household box; clothes, bedding and shoes go in Bag of clothes & bedding; packed toys have a Box of toys choice. Empty cardboard is separate, with individual empty boxes and bundles of 10 flattened boxes. Heavy, oversized or unusual contents need a photo review before booking.
Yes. Estimate how many trash bags the small household pile would fill, and bag or box as much as possible. Select furniture and other larger items separately. There is no extra charge just because the pile is loose. Send a photo first if the count or contents are unclear. A household Dumpster Bag choice does not accept construction debris.
Yes. Select the bags and boxes, then add each larger item using its own catalog choice. The booking shows one combined price for the selected items. Move everything to an accessible outdoor spot before pickup; indoor carrying and sorting are not included. Keep anything you want to retain apart from the booked items and identify what goes in your photos and notes.
Couches and other large household items go out with the quarterly curbside bulk trash collection, and city residents can bring the same items to Republic Services free on the published drop-off days with proof of residency. Downtown addresses and buildings with five or more units do not get curbside bulk pickup, so those households use the drop-off day.Official guidance
Mattresses and box springs are on the accepted list for the quarterly curbside bulk trash collection, and the free drop-off days at Republic Services take the same material with proof of city residency. Neither route needs a request, but each load is limited to 7.5 cubic yards.Official guidance
A broken appliance that holds no refrigerant is accepted with the city's bulk trash and at the free drop-off day, and the metal yards on King Highway and Glendenning Road buy appliances, microwaves and other scrap. Confirm the unit carries no refrigerant before you set it out or load it.Official guidance
No Kalamazoo program names exercise equipment. A bulky machine fits the large household item list for the quarterly bulk trash pile or the free drop-off day, a metal frame is scrap that a local yard buys, and a machine with a motor or console may be refused in a bulk pile because electronics are excluded. Confirm the item with the city before you set it out.Official guidance
The city's Department of Public Services runs curbside recycling, quarterly bulk trash, monthly yard waste and the fall leaf program, and the Solid Waste Millage pays for them instead of a per-pickup charge. Regular household trash is not a city service and has to be arranged privately. Bulk trash days are assigned by address, so check the city collection lookup or call 311.Official guidance
City residents can drop up to 7.5 cubic yards at Republic Services, 3432 Gembrit Circle, at no charge on published dates, and proof of city residency is required. The listed 2026 dates are Wednesday September 30 from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and Saturday October 3 from 8 a.m. to noon. Any other day carries a fee.Official guidance
