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.

Book a day you can be ready.
Choose from the available pickup dates before moving the machine out. Follow the readiness instructions in your confirmation. Book by 2pm at the pickup address for same-day pickup.

Make the equipment easy to identify.
Place the booked equipment in an accessible outdoor spot. Keep any separated parts together, add a photo and clear location notes to your order, and leave the approach clear.
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 city's accepted lists, so it comes down to what the hauler will agree to take. Ask before anyone drags a treadmill to the curb, and be ready to describe the weight and how it comes apart.
City cost & eligibility
No published rate covers an exercise machine. Confirm with Priority Waste whether the machine can be collected as one of the two bulk items and whether any charge applies.
When & how
Get an answer from the hauler before your bulk pickup day and leave the machine in the agreed spot on the collection morning.
Get it ready
Give the hauler the model, weight and dimensions, and say whether the machine has a motor, console or batteries. Ask whether it wants the machine broken down or the weights boxed.
Out after 7 p.m. the night before, or before 7 a.m.
Trash, yard waste and bulk items all follow the same window: nothing goes to the curb before 7 p.m. the night before collection, and everything needs to be out by 7 a.m. on the collection morning. Special pickup items wait until after 7 p.m. the night before, the cart has to stand clear of cars, bags, totes, other carts, mailboxes and poles, and bulk items stay at least 3 feet from the cart.
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 Pontiac curbside service through Priority Waste
Put two bulk items out with the city curbside pickup
A Pontiac household on the municipal collection route with a sofa, chair, mattress, appliance or other large item that will not fit in the cart.
Cost & conditions
No charge. Two items are collected on the bulk day that falls on your trash day as part of the city curbside contract. Anything above the two item limit is the resident's cost, and the city's older bulk guide, published when the previous contractor held the work, listed a charge for each extra item.
Arrange it
Check the city's route map to confirm the address is on the municipal collection route, then set the items out in the 7 p.m. to 7 a.m. window on the collection day, at least 3 feet from the cart. Calling the hauler to request the collection is recommended in the city's bulk guide, and Priority Waste can be reached at 586-228-1200 or 855-927-8365.
Two items only, no Freon appliances, no oil or gas equipment, no automotive parts, no construction items and no extra trash. Bulk items do not include televisions, computers or other electronics.
Pontiac's own drop-off windows both sit inside the city. The spring landfill days at the Transfer Station on 575 Collier Road run 7 a.m. to noon on selected Saturdays for residents with proof of residency, taking furniture, carpet, wood and demolition items, appliances without Freon and tires at $3 each inside a 3 cubic yard limit, with no trailers or commercial vehicles. Household recyclables go to the City Hall auxiliary parking lot, where the gates are open Monday to Friday 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and weekends 6 a.m. to 7 p.m., and the accepted list is paper, cardboard, plastics marked #1 or #2, glass bottles and jars and metal cans. Electronics, paint and household chemicals go to the Oakland County NoHaz events instead, which are free for Pontiac residents with pre-registration.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Exercise equipment removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Pontiac.
How much does exercise equipment removal cost in Pontiac?+
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.
How do I get rid of a treadmill in Pontiac?+
Call Priority Waste at 586-228-1200 or 855-927-8365 first, because exercise equipment is not on the list of items the city's bulk and special pickup programme names. Ask whether the machine fits inside the two item limit and what the hauler needs you to do before the pickup day.Official guidance
Will the city take weights and gym equipment?+
Ask Priority Waste first, because exercise equipment is not named among the items the bulk and special pickup programme accepts. Heavy machines and loose weights may need to be broken down or packed, and anything the hauler declines has to go to a private receiver.Official guidance
