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.

Mooresville takes furniture on the bulky truck that runs the same route as the garbage every week. Couches, chairs, desks, dressers, tables and entertainment centers are named in the town bulky list, the pickup costs no extra charge and there is nothing to schedule, and the piece has to be empty before it goes out.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Households on the town collection route. Bulky waste is picked up every week on the household's own trash collection day at no extra charge and the town asks for no appointment. A piece that the town does not treat as bulky goes to the county transfer station instead, where its own fees apply.
When & how
Put the piece out with the regular garbage on the collection day. The town sends a separate bulk truck, and the page warns that large items can take three to five days to be collected, so nothing should be added to the pile after the truck has been through.
Get it ready
Empty the furniture and tape any glass, as the town asks for china cabinet hutches and entertainment centers. Disassemble anything large or heavy before it goes out, and set it at least three feet from the roll-out container and away from overhead lines, parked cars, mailboxes and other obstacles so the arm can reach both.
A mattress is named in the town bulky waste list, so it goes out with the weekly bulk truck on the regular collection day at no extra charge and without an appointment. Nothing in the Mooresville program routes a mattress to the county fee scale.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Households on the town collection route. Mattresses appear in the same weekly bulky pickup that carries furniture and appliances, which the town collects at no extra charge on the household's own trash day.
When & how
Set the mattress out on the collection day with the rest of the bulky pile. The bulk truck runs the route each week, and the town notes that a large item can sit as long as three to five days before the crew reaches it.
Get it ready
Keep the mattress dry and out of the recycling cart and the yard waste pile. Stand it up if the crew asks, and leave three feet of space around the roll-out container so the automated arm is not blocked.
Appliances are on the town bulky list as long as they are empty, and the named examples cover dishwashers, microwaves, residential stoves, washers and dryers. The county also takes white goods free of charge at the Mooresville Transfer Station when they are kept separate from other waste, so an appliance has two published routes rather than a fee question.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Households on the town collection route for the weekly bulky pickup, and Iredell County residents with a decal or proof of residency for the transfer station, where white goods are free when they are free of food and other waste and kept separate from municipal solid waste.
When & how
Either set the appliance out on the regular collection day with the bulky pile, or take it to the Mooresville Transfer Station on Macleod Drive, which opens Monday through Saturday from 7 am to 6:30 pm and Sunday from 2 to 6:30 pm.
Get it ready
Empty the appliance completely. The county states that white goods must be free of food and all other waste before disposal, and the town asks for appliances that are empty and for large or heavy items to be disassembled before they go to the curb. Keep appliances on the opposite side of the pile from small items if the crew has to separate them.
Refrigerators and freezers are named on the town bulky list under appliances, and the county white goods category names refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners and water coolers as free at the Mooresville Transfer Station. The published requirement on both routes is that the unit is empty.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Households on the town collection route for the weekly bulky pickup, and Iredell County residents with a decal or proof of residency for the transfer station, where white goods including refrigerators, freezers and air conditioners are free when kept separate from other waste and free of food and other material.
When & how
Either put the unit out with the bulky pile on the regular collection day, or drive it to the Mooresville Transfer Station, open Monday through Saturday from 7 am to 6:30 pm and Sunday from 2 to 6:30 pm.
Get it ready
Empty the unit of food and every other item, because the county keeps white goods separate and refuses them with contents. Remove or secure the doors, keep the unit upright, and leave three feet around the roll-out container if it goes to the curb.
Electronics never go in the garbage, the recycling cart or the bulky pile. The town lists televisions, computers, printers and similar devices as items it does not consider bulky, states that electronic waste is banned from landfills in North Carolina, and sends residents to the Iredell County Transfer Station, where CRT televisions and monitors carry a published per unit charge and other electronics may carry fees.
City cost & eligibility
From $10 per CRT television or monitor at the Iredell County Transfer Station, with other electronics subject to fees the county sets. Iredell County residents with a windshield decal or proof of residency at 158 Macleod Drive in Mooresville. The county states that CRT televisions and monitors are banned from the landfill and required to be recycled, and the town tells residents that fees may apply to electronics that are not allowed in curbside collection.
When & how
Take the device to the Mooresville Transfer Station, open Monday through Saturday from 7 am to 6:30 pm and Sunday from 2 to 6:30 pm. The county asks questions about a specific device to go to 704-664-4278, and the town routes electronics questions to the same number.
Get it ready
Wipe personal data off any computer, phone or drive before the device leaves the house. Keep electronics out of the recycling cart, which refuses discs, tapes, light bulbs and paint, and out of the bulky pile, which lists electronics among the items it does not take, and never put one in the household garbage.
The town does not collect construction or demolition debris, carpet, flooring, fencing or lumber at the curb, and the residential Dial-A-Dumpster refuses construction and contractor debris. The route is the Iredell County Transfer Station on Macleod Drive, which takes construction and demolition material by weight and refuses concrete, asphalt, brick, block, dirt, shingles, gravel and rocks.
City cost & eligibility
$66 per ton of construction and demolition material at the Mooresville Transfer Station, which the county fee schedule lists at 66 dollars per ton with the North Carolina tip tax added at the scale. Iredell County residents with a windshield decal or proof of residency. Loads with construction or demolition debris have to be unloaded by 6 pm, no construction debris from commercial sources is accepted at that site, and concrete, asphalt, brick, block, dirt, shingles, gravel and rocks are refused there and directed to the Twin Oaks facility.
When & how
The Mooresville Transfer Station opens Monday through Saturday from 7 am to 6:30 pm and Sunday from 2 to 6:30 pm, with construction debris loads required before 6 pm and commercial loads cut off at 2:45 pm on weekdays. Larger loads and unacceptable material go to the Twin Oaks facility in Statesville, open weekdays from 7:30 am to 4 pm and Saturday from 8 am to noon.
Get it ready
Separate the load by material, because the county refuses or re-charges unseparated waste and keeps concrete, asphalt, brick and block out of the Macleod Drive site. Stack and denail lumber, keep the load covered and secured to avoid the civil penalty for an unsecured load, and remember that a contractor working at the address has to haul away its own debris.
Nothing in the Mooresville program names exercise equipment. The town bulky list does not include it, the county fee sheet does not name it, and the town warns that objects too large for a two-person carry are not considered bulky and that large or heavy items should be disassembled, so a machine is a question for sanitation before it goes to the curb.
City cost & eligibility
No published rate or route covers exercise equipment. Call the town sanitation department on 704-663-7282 and describe the machine, or ask the Iredell County Transfer Station on 704-663-5314 whether the load belongs on its scale, before the item is set out.
When & how
There is no automatic collection day for a machine. If the town confirms it as bulky, it goes out on the regular trash day with the rest of the pile; otherwise it goes to the county site during that facility's open hours.
Get it ready
Take the machine down as far as it will come apart, keep the loose weights and parts with it, and drain anything powered by fluid. Keep it away from the recycling cart and the yard waste pile, and do not add it to a pile the bulk truck has already passed.
Bulky waste is the second truck on every route. It takes extra bags of garbage, move-out piles, patio furniture, bicycles, bagged clothing, broken-down cardboard, grills under the weight limit and lawnmowers with the fuel removed, all at no extra charge on the regular collection day. Pallets are banned in North Carolina and the town does not collect them. For a whole-garage clean-out the town also runs a free residential dumpster within a seasonal window.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Households on the town collection route. The weekly bulky pickup carries no extra charge and needs no appointment, and the residential Dial-A-Dumpster service available to residents is also provided at no cost, with its own seasonal and content limits.
When & how
Bulky items and excess bags go out on the household's own trash collection day, at least three feet from the roll-out container, and the crew may take three to five days to reach a large item. A Dial-A-Dumpster is requested in advance, stays for a maximum of seven days and is not available from November 1 to January 1.
Get it ready
Keep the pile to what the page lists: empty appliances and furniture, empty and broken-down boxes, bagged clothing, disassembled large items, grills under the weight limit without propane tanks, lawnmowers without gasoline or batteries, mattresses and patio furniture. Carpet, concrete, construction debris, dirt, electronics, flammable items, mulch, rocks, tires and pallets do not belong in it, and a dumpster load may contain yard waste or household waste but never both.
Everything goes at least three feet from the roll-out container and three feet from mailboxes, cars and other obstructions so the automated arm can reach the can. The lid has to close completely, nothing may be pushed down or packed above the rim, and bulky items or excess bags wait on the ground three feet away from the cart rather than beside it.
All garbage goes in tied plastic bags inside the town roll-out container, and everything stays bagged so it cannot blow around the neighborhood. Cardboard is flattened for recycling, because the town collects an unflattened box as garbage, and oversized boxes are flattened and stacked beside the recycling cart instead of left loose at the curb.
Empty the item and take it apart before it goes out
Appliances and furniture have to be empty, and the town asks residents to disassemble swing sets, pool tables, basketball goals and anything else large or heavy before it reaches the curb. Concrete goes with none of it: a basketball goal base has to be removed, and anything fully or partially encased in concrete is not collected.
The county gates need a decal or proof of residency
The Iredell County sites are funded by county taxpayers and cannot accept material from non-residents, so a household needs the annual windshield decal mailed with the August property tax statement, or proof of residency such as a driver's license with a current vehicle registration, utility bill or loan closing papers. The county can refuse service after January 31 without a current decal and fines non-residents who try to dispose of material.
Household chemicals only on the monthly collection day
Paint, solvents, pesticides, pool chemicals, aerosols, automotive fluids and similar products are not collected curbside and never go in a storm drain. They go to the Iredell County household hazardous waste collection at 354 Twin Oaks Road in Statesville on the last Saturday of the month from 8 to 11:30 am, with a decal or proof of residency, no pre-staging, no business waste and paint limited to fifteen one-gallon cans.
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.

Use the weekly bulky waste truck
A household with a couch, a mattress, an empty appliance, extra bagged garbage, a move-out pile or another item the town lists as bulky.
Cost & conditions
No charge. Households on the Mooresville collection route. The town states that bulky waste is picked up every week on the specified trash collection day at no extra charge, with no need to schedule, and the separate bulk truck handles the items.
Arrange it
Set the items at the curb on the regular trash day, at least three feet from the roll-out container and away from overhead lines, parked cars and other obstacles. The automated side-loader empties the cart and the second truck collects the bulky pile.
Large items can take three to five days, so nothing should be added to the pile after the truck has passed. Appliances and furniture must be empty, glass has to be taped, and carpet, concrete, construction debris, dirt, electronics, flammable items, mulch, rocks, tires and pallets are not accepted on this route.
Town of Mooresville Sanitation Department with Iredell County Solid Waste facilities
Call for a residential Dial-A-Dumpster
A household cleaning out a garage, a shed or an attic, or cutting far more yard debris than the weekly route can carry.
Cost & conditions
No charge. Residents of the town who call ahead to confirm availability. The booklet describes the residential-only service as provided at no cost, with the dumpster held for a maximum of seven days.
Arrange it
Call the sanitation department in advance and have the dumpster placed in the driveway, never in the yard or the street. The container may hold yard waste or household waste, but not both in the same load, and co-mingling can leave the load on the site.
The service is not available from November 1 to January 1. Barrels, carpet and padding, construction debris, contractor debris, electronics, glass, paint, painted wood, pallets, shingles and vinyl siding are not allowed in a residential dumpster, and a contractor working at the address has to haul away its own debris.

Take it to the Iredell County Transfer Station on Macleod Drive

Confirm the load at the gate or on 704-663-5314.
Arrange it
Drive to 158 Macleod Drive in Mooresville with the windshield decal or proof of residency. The site opens Monday through Saturday from 7 am to 6:30 pm and Sunday from 2 to 6:30 pm, and the county asks that loads be covered or secured.

Wait for the monthly household hazardous waste day
A household with paint, thinner, stain, pesticides, pool chemicals, aerosols, automotive fluids, batteries or another product that cannot go curbside.
Cost & conditions
No charge. Iredell County residents on the monthly collection day at the Twin Oaks facility, with a windshield decal or proof of residency and no commercial or business waste. The county reserves the right to refuse anything beyond a normal household quantity, and paint is limited to fifteen one-gallon cans per household.
Arrange it
Drive to 354 Twin Oaks Road in Statesville on the last Saturday of the month between 8 and 11:30 am, with no pre-staging on the site. The facility is closed in December, and the directions on the county page send vehicles past the scale to the appliance area.
The collection runs on one morning a month rather than continuously, so a household holds the material until the date. Latex paint that is no longer flowable does not have to wait: it can be dried and put in the household trash. Remodeling-level quantities of paint or contractor waste are outside the event.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Bulk junk removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Mooresville.
How much does bulk junk removal cost in Mooresville?+
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.
Can you pick up bags of junk today?+
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.
Do I count every object inside a bag or box?+
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.
Can you pick up a small loose pile of household junk?+
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.
Can I book bags, boxes and furniture together?+
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.
Does a couch go out with the regular garbage in Mooresville?+
Yes, but on the second truck rather than in the cart. Couches are named in the town bulk waste list, the crew sends a separate bulk truck down the same route, and the pickup costs no extra charge with no appointment needed. Empty the piece first, and expect large items to take three to five days.Official guidance
Will the town pick up a mattress at the curb?+

How do appliances go out in Mooresville?+
Empty and with the bulky truck. The town names dishwashers, microwaves, stoves, washers and dryers in its weekly bulk waste list, and that pickup costs no extra charge on the household's own trash day. The county also takes white goods at the Mooresville Transfer Station at no charge, kept separate from other waste and free of food.Official guidance
Where do refrigerators and freezers go in Mooresville?+
Either route works and neither carries a charge. Refrigerators and freezers are on the town bulky list, so they ride the weekly bulk truck on the regular collection day.

The town does not collect this material at the curb and the residential dumpster will not take it.Official guidance
Will the town take a treadmill or exercise machine at the curb?+
It is not named either way, so call first.

Sanitation at 704-663-7282 can say whether the machine is accepted and how to prepare it.Official guidance
What will not be collected with the bulky waste in Mooresville?+
Carpet, concrete and concrete-based items, construction and demolition debris, dirt, mulch, rocks, bricks, auto parts and batteries, tires, electronics, flammable or explosive items and pallets are all refused.

Ask the town. A household gets one roll-out garbage container paid through property taxes, and additional garbage containers are available at an extra cost through the billing office on 704-663-3800. On the recycling side a household gets one cart after registering and may request a second at no charge, and a damaged cart is replaced when it cannot be dumped or rolled or when the body, handle, lid or wheels are broken.Official guidance
Can I get a dumpster for a big garage or yard clean-out?+
Yes, within limits. Mooresville residents can call the sanitation department in advance for a residential Dial-A-Dumpster at no cost when the amount of material is more than the weekly route can carry. The container stays up to seven days, sits in the driveway, holds yard waste or household waste but never both, and is unavailable from November 1 to January 1. Construction debris, contractor debris, electronics, glass, paint, painted wood, pallets, shingles and vinyl siding are not allowed in it.Official guidance
What do I do with leftover paint in Mooresville?+
Dry it out and put the can at the curb, or hold it for the county household hazardous waste day. Latex paint that is no longer flowable can go in the household trash, and a can less than a quarter full can be left open to air dry, with kitty litter, shredded paper or sawdust added to speed it up, before the can goes to the curb with the lid open for inspection. Anything still liquid goes to the Twin Oaks collection on the last Saturday morning of the month, limited to fifteen one-gallon cans per household.Official guidance
