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 local disposal guide
Bulk junk removal in Trenton: start with the item’s collection rules, then choose the arrangement that fits.
Reviewed · Sources below
Trenton publishes a special bulk pickup rather than a scheduled bulky week. A resident reports the item to the Division of Solid Waste and the city arranges the pickup, which makes the phone call the step that opens the service. The flyer adds the one hard limit on the route, which is that no more than five items are collected at one time.
The handoff matters
On the regular round, garbage can be placed at the curb no earlier than 10 p.m. the night before collection and by 7 a.m. on the day of pickup. No can or bag at the curb may exceed 50 pounds, and containers are required for homeowners and renters rather than optional. A bulky item is different, because it waits until the special pickup has been arranged rather than going out on the ordinary round.

There is also no commercial cardboard or commercial glass collection on a holiday, and material that has been placed out has to be removed immediately rather than left waiting for the next round.
