A clear count. An exact price.

Count the bags and boxes, not everything inside.

A few simple choices turn a mixed pile into a clear booking. No need to estimate how much of a truck it might fill.

Filled bags and boxes

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 and containers

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.

Furniture and other larger items

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.

Special rules apply

Couches, sofas, chairs, dressers, desks and tables are not part of a city collection route in Eagan. Arrange a one-time pickup with the hauler on your account, or take the piece to a transfer station that accepts furniture.

City cost & eligibility
Each hauler sets its own one-time large-item price. Dakota Area Transfer publishes a 2026 rate of $30 per small furniture item such as a bed frame, stuffed chair, dresser, love seat or desk, and $50 per large item such as a sectional couch, hide-a-bed or exercise equipment. Confirm the current price and unloading rules before you load.
When & how
Call your licensed hauler to arrange a one-time pickup, or bring the item to a transfer station during public drop-off hours. Most Eagan addresses have collection on Monday, Wednesday or Friday depending on the part of the city.
Get it ready
Empty drawers and remove cushions and loose parts. Keep hazardous waste, liquids, paint and asbestos out of the load, because county and facility guidance refuses those materials.

Special rules apply

Dakota Area Transfer publishes a 2026 rate of $35 per residential appliance, and the DVR summer drop-off event charges $5 per appliance with water softeners at $30 each. Haulers set their own price. The transfer station refuses appliances that hold ammonia or hazardous material.
When & how
Take the appliance to a transfer station during public drop-off hours, ask your hauler about a one-time pickup, or use the Dakota Valley Recycling drop-off event in June.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

Follow the hauler's own pickup instructions

Eagan lets trash and recycling containers sit at the curb or collection point from 6 p.m. the night before collection until 6 a.m. on collection day, and asks that containers stay out of sight from the street at all other times. A one-time large-item pickup follows the hauler's own directions, so confirm the spot and the timing when you schedule it.

Recycling and trash collection rulesHow to get rid of large items, transfer stations and landfills

Prepare a drop-off load

For a transfer station or the Recycling Zone, load the items yourself and check the current hours before you leave. At the Recycling Zone, stay in the vehicle and keep everything except sharps in the trunk or the very back so staff can unload it, and have proof of residency ready. Facilities price a load by item, weight or vehicle type, so ask before you drive.

City of Eagan, Dakota Valley Recycling and licensed residential haulers

Arrange a one-time pickup with your licensed hauler

Households with a couch, mattress, appliance, television or exercise machine that will not fit the curbside carts.

Cost & conditions
Each licensed hauler sets its own one-time large-item price and its own list of what it will take. Ask for the price when you book.
Arrange it
Call the hauler that collects your garbage, or one of the other licensed haulers on the city list, and describe the exact items and where they will sit. County guidance points residents to their hauler for a one-time large-item pickup.

Eagan has no citywide bulky-item collection, so what each hauler accepts, prices and asks you to do at the curb varies by company.

Use the Dakota Valley Recycling drop-off event

Eagan households with appliances, mattresses, box springs, exercise equipment, scrap metal or electronics, including screens.

Cost & conditions
The published 2026 event charged per item: appliances $5 each with water softeners at $30, power equipment and exercise equipment $10 each, scrap metal $5 per load, televisions and monitors $25 to $45 by size, other electronics $10 each, and mattresses or box springs $20 per piece. Laptops, towers, phones and tablets were free. Confirm the current event prices.
Arrange it
Eagan is one of the four cities Dakota Valley Recycling serves, so residents can use its events. Check the collection and swap events page for the current date, time and location, then load one vehicle and stay in it on arrival.

It is a one-day event rather than a year-round route. The published drop-off did not accept furniture including futons, air mattresses, tires, batteries or construction material.

Through your building

Start with management at an apartment or shared building

Residents of apartments, condominiums, townhomes and other multi-unit buildings that use a shared hauler or dumpster.

Cost & conditions
The property owner, manager or its private hauler sets the arrangement and the price for removing a large item.
Arrange it
Ask the property manager how the building handles a large item and whether the shared hauler will take it. Multi-unit and commercial hauling is licensed separately from the household list.

Do not put a large item out under the single-family collection rules without confirming the building arrangement. Buildings with four or more attached units and a shared contract must meet the county recycling requirements instead.

Review multifamily rules

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Eagan collects no garbage of its own, so a self-haul trip is a normal route for a large item. The Dakota County Recycling Zone at 3365 Dodd Road in Eagan takes electronics, tires and household hazardous waste, but it does not take appliances, furniture, mattresses or exercise equipment. For those, use a transfer station: Dakota Area Transfer in Rosemount takes furniture, appliances, mattresses, electronics and construction debris, and Freeway Transfer in Burnsville takes couches, stoves, carpet, drywall and project debris. Call the facility with your exact items and load before you leave home, and check the published public drop-off hours.

Can you pick up a small loose pile of household junk?
