City collection Sofas, furniture items and cabinets are named by the city's hauler as bulk items, so a couch is booked with WM rather than left beside the cart. A household that would rather drive the piece itself can use its one free monthly load at the Rio Rancho Landfill. The bulk pickup is priced by WM at the time it is scheduled, based on the item and the volume, so no rate is published in advance. The self-haul alternative is the free monthly residential allowance at the Rio Rancho Landfill, with the gate rate applying to anything over the published weight allowance.
City collection WM names mattresses and box springs among the common bulky items it collects, and the Sandoval County Landfill prices a mattress as its own line rather than by weight, so a Rio Rancho household has both a pickup route and a self-haul route. From $12.5 per mattress at the Sandoval County Landfill, where beds carry their own per piece rate instead of the per ton rate. Any customer delivering to the county landfill scale, where payment is cash or a business check. A WM bulk pickup is quoted by WM when it is scheduled rather than priced from a published table, and the free monthly residential allowance at the Rio Rancho Landfill also covers a mattress inside its weight limit.
City collection A unit that holds refrigerant is the one appliance with a printed prohibition in Rio Rancho: the Rio Rancho Landfill refuses appliances with Freon, so the county landfill, which prices appliances without stating an exclusion, has to be confirmed for the unit. No published rate covers a refrigerant unit on its own. The county landfill prices appliances per unit on its rate table but does not state whether it takes a unit that still holds refrigerant, the Rio Rancho Landfill prohibits appliances with Freon outright, and a WM bulk pickup is quoted when it is booked, so call the county landfill on 505-867-0814 or WM on 505-892-1200 before the unit leaves home.
City collection Every household in Rio Rancho has the same residential hauler. The city selected Waste Management, WM supplies one 96 gallon gray cart, and trash is collected weekly from that cart. A household sets up its own WM profile so service and billing are in its own name. The city page publishes the service and the free landfill benefit rather than a monthly rate, and WM bills the household directly once the profile is set up. Additional carts are available for a fee, and material that overflows the cart may draw an extra charge or be left behind, so confirm the current rate and the extra container cost with WM on 505-892-1200.
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
Will the city take it?
Rio Rancho does not run its own collection crews: the city selected Waste Management, and a household sets up its own WM profile for the gray cart, the recycling and the bill. WM picks up trash every week and takes bulky items by request, and the city adds a benefit of its own, a free monthly trip to the Rio Rancho Landfill on Carpenter Street for approved residential waste. Anything WM will not take in the cart moves to one of two county-priced gates: the Rio Rancho Landfill, which refuses appliances that hold Freon, and the Sandoval County Landfill on Iris Road, which publishes a flat and per ton rate table for bagged loads, appliances, mattresses, televisions, concrete and construction debris. Household chemicals are the awkward case. The county hazardous waste collection is suspended, so paint, oil, pool chemicals and batteries go through WM's At Your Door collection instead.
Every household in Rio Rancho has the same residential hauler. The city selected Waste Management, WM supplies one 96 gallon gray cart, and trash is collected weekly from that cart. A household sets up its own WM profile so service and billing are in its own name.
City cost & eligibility
The city page publishes the service and the free landfill benefit rather than a monthly rate, and WM bills the household directly once the profile is set up. Additional carts are available for a fee, and material that overflows the cart may draw an extra charge or be left behind, so confirm the current rate and the extra container cost with WM on 505-892-1200.
When & how
Trash is collected weekly on the address collection day. The container goes to the street with the wheels against the curb by 6 a.m. and comes back the same day. A holiday that falls on a weekday pushes collection back a day for the rest of that week, while a holiday on a Saturday or Sunday causes no delay.
Get it ready
Bag everything and keep the lid closed, because overflow and material outside the cart may be charged or left. Keep the cart three feet from parked cars, mailboxes and other obstacles, and keep construction waste, auto parts, tires, hazardous waste and electronic or medical waste out of it, since none of those belong in the cart. Report a missed pickup within three days.
WM takes bulk or heavy trash that is not suitable for the regular cart, and a Rio Rancho household asks for it through its My WM profile or through a WM agent. The city also gives every household one free monthly load at the Rio Rancho Landfill for approved residential waste.
City cost & eligibility
WM publishes no flat bulk rate because the price varies by area and by what and how much is set out, and the agent gives an estimate before the pickup is booked. The Rio Rancho Landfill route costs nothing up to the published monthly weight allowance and charges the gate rate for anything beyond it.
When & how
Log in to My WM and use the bulk item pickup action, or speak to an agent, then set the load out on the day WM assigns. The free landfill trip can be taken any day of the month during the landfill's open hours, Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. or Saturday from 7:30 a.m. to 12 p.m.
Get it ready
Describe every item when the pickup is booked so the estimate is accurate, and keep the load out of the cart. At the Rio Rancho Landfill the monthly allowance is one load for the household, the load may not exceed four tires, and hazardous waste, appliances that hold Freon, bulk liquids and business waste are refused.
Sofas, furniture items and cabinets are named by the city's hauler as bulk items, so a couch is booked with WM rather than left beside the cart. A household that would rather drive the piece itself can use its one free monthly load at the Rio Rancho Landfill.
City cost & eligibility
The bulk pickup is priced by WM at the time it is scheduled, based on the item and the volume, so no rate is published in advance. The self-haul alternative is the free monthly residential allowance at the Rio Rancho Landfill, with the gate rate applying to anything over the published weight allowance.
When & how
Book the pickup through My WM or with a WM agent and set the furniture out on the assigned day, or take the piece to the Rio Rancho Landfill during its open hours.
Get it ready
Empty the drawers, remove the cushions and loose parts, and keep the piece whole enough for two people to lift. Keep it out of the trash cart, because bulk and heavy items are not part of the weekly cart collection.
WM names mattresses and box springs among the common bulky items it collects, and the Sandoval County Landfill prices a mattress as its own line rather than by weight, so a Rio Rancho household has both a pickup route and a self-haul route.
City cost & eligibility
From $12.5 per mattress at the Sandoval County Landfill, where beds carry their own per piece rate instead of the per ton rate. Any customer delivering to the county landfill scale, where payment is cash or a business check. A WM bulk pickup is quoted by WM when it is scheduled rather than priced from a published table, and the free monthly residential allowance at the Rio Rancho Landfill also covers a mattress inside its weight limit.
When & how
Book the bulky pickup with WM, or drive the piece to the Sandoval County Landfill at 2708 Iris Rd NE, open Monday through Saturday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. with loads larger than a standard pickup required in the gate before 3:30 p.m.
Get it ready
Count the box spring as its own piece, since the county prices each mattress separately, and tarp the load because an untarped load draws an extra fee at the county scale. A household using the Rio Rancho Landfill instead brings identification and a current WM bill.
The Sandoval County Landfill prices appliances as their own line rather than by weight, so an appliance has a published self-haul rate. The Rio Rancho Landfill does not accept an appliance that holds Freon, so the route depends on what the unit contains.
City cost & eligibility
$8 per appliance at the Sandoval County Landfill, where white goods are charged as their own line instead of by weight. Any customer delivering to the county landfill scale, with payment by cash or business check. The Rio Rancho Landfill refuses appliances that hold Freon, and a WM bulk pickup is quoted when it is scheduled rather than priced from a table.
When & how
Drive the unit to the Sandoval County Landfill at 2708 Iris Rd NE on a weekday or Saturday, or use the free monthly Rio Rancho Landfill allowance during its open hours if the unit does not hold refrigerant.
Get it ready
Empty the unit and keep it upright in the vehicle, and say what it is before it goes on the scale. Keep a cooling appliance out of the Rio Rancho Landfill load, because that site prohibits appliances with Freon, and ask the county landfill whether a refrigerant unit is accepted before hauling it.
A unit that holds refrigerant is the one appliance with a printed prohibition in Rio Rancho: the Rio Rancho Landfill refuses appliances with Freon, so the county landfill, which prices appliances without stating an exclusion, has to be confirmed for the unit.
City cost & eligibility
No published rate covers a refrigerant unit on its own. The county landfill prices appliances per unit on its rate table but does not state whether it takes a unit that still holds refrigerant, the Rio Rancho Landfill prohibits appliances with Freon outright, and a WM bulk pickup is quoted when it is booked, so call the county landfill on 505-867-0814 or WM on 505-892-1200 before the unit leaves home.
When & how
Confirm the unit first, then either take it to the county landfill during its open hours or book it on a WM bulk pickup.
Get it ready
Empty and defrost the unit, keep it upright, and be ready to say whether it still holds refrigerant, because that answer decides which site will take it. Do not put it out with the curbside cart, because appliances are not cart material and the household hauler refuses Freon appliances at the city landfill benefit.
Electronics are refused in the curbside cart, so a television or computer leaves through WM's At Your Door collection, a city e-waste drive or the county landfill, which prices a television as its own line.
City cost & eligibility
$33 per television at the Sandoval County Landfill, where televisions carry their own line on the rate table. Any customer delivering to the county landfill scale, with payment by cash or business check. WM's At Your Door collection and the city e-waste drives have their own terms and are confirmed with the operator rather than priced from a published table.
When & how
Book WM's At Your Door collection, take the device to a city e-waste event, or drive the load to the Sandoval County Landfill during its open hours and tarp it.
Get it ready
Remove personal data from anything that still powers on, keep the device whole, and keep electronics out of the cart and out of the recycling cart. At Your Door mails a collection kit and the items go to the front door or outside the garage before 7 a.m. on the pickup day.
Small devices and batteries leave through WM's At Your Door collection, which the city names for electronics and household hazardous waste, and the city places TerraCycle boxes for power strips and cords at every public library and at the Parks and Recreation desk in City Hall.
City cost & eligibility
WM's At Your Door Special Collection is arranged by phone or online and the city page publishes the route rather than a price, so confirm what the collection costs and which items it takes at a Rio Rancho address. The TerraCycle boxes for power strips and cords are a free drop-off that the city collects when full.
When & how
Call 1-800-449-7587 on a weekday between 6 a.m. and 6 p.m., or use wmatyourdoor.com, to arrange the collection, or drop power strips and cords in a TerraCycle box at a Rio Rancho public library or at the Parks and Recreation desk.
Get it ready
Batteries and small electronics belong with the household hazardous waste collection rather than the cart, and the county landfill no longer takes them because its household hazardous waste collection is suspended. Remove personal data where the device powers on, and keep cords bundled for the TerraCycle box.
Construction waste is refused in the curbside cart, so a project load goes to the Sandoval County Landfill, which takes a bagged load, a bed level load or a per ton load and accepts construction and demolition debris with two printed conditions.
City cost & eligibility
From $1 per bag at the Sandoval County Landfill, where a bagged load is capped at four bags and larger loads move to the bed level, above bed level, truck trailer and per ton rates. Any customer delivering to the county landfill scale. Construction and demolition debris is accepted with no asbestos and with a copy of the inspection document when the building was built before 1980, every load has to be tarped or a residential no tarp fee is added, and payment is cash or a business check only.
When & how
Haul the load to the Sandoval County Landfill at 2708 Iris Rd NE on a weekday or Saturday between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m., with a load larger than a standard pickup in the gate before 3:30 p.m.
Get it ready
Tarp the load before leaving, because an untarped load draws an extra fee, and bring the inspection document for a building from before 1980. Keep asbestos, hazardous waste, propane tanks and vehicle bodies out of the load, and keep construction material out of the curbside cart entirely.
Exercise equipment is not named by the hauler's bulky list or by the county rate table, so a treadmill or a weight machine is confirmed with WM before it is set out, either as a bulk pickup or as a load at the county scale.
City cost & eligibility
No published rate covers an exercise machine. WM prices a bulk pickup by the item and the volume and gives an estimate when the pickup is booked, and the county landfill charges a bed level, above bed level or per ton rate depending on the load, so ask WM on 505-892-1200 and the county on 505-867-0814 which route fits the machine.
When & how
Confirm the machine and the route first, then book it on a WM bulk pickup or take the load to the county landfill during its open hours.
Get it ready
Describe the machine, its size and its weight when the pickup or the load is arranged, and keep it out of the trash cart. A machine that is mostly metal can be described that way to the hauler, and a load taken to the county scale still has to be tarped.
Household chemicals no longer have a county drop-off: the Sandoval County Landfill suspends its household hazardous waste collection, and it lists hazardous waste among the materials it refuses. The city directs residents to WM's At Your Door Special Collection instead.
City cost & eligibility
WM's At Your Door Special Collection is arranged by phone or online and the city page publishes the route rather than a price, so confirm the cost and the accepted items before scheduling. The county landfill charges nothing for hazardous waste because it does not take it while the household collection is suspended.
When & how
Call 1-800-449-7587 on a weekday between 6 a.m. and 6 p.m., or use wmatyourdoor.com, and WM mails a collection kit with the labeling instructions and the pickup day.
Get it ready
Keep the material in its labeled container, and put the labeled items at the front door or outside the garage before 7 a.m. on the pickup day, which is where the service collects them. Paint, motor oil, pool chemicals and batteries are the streams the city names for this route, and none of them may go in the trash or the recycling cart.
The gray cart goes to the street with the wheels against the curb by 6 a.m. on the collection day and comes back the same day. Everything is bagged inside it and the lid has to close, because overflow and material left outside may be charged or not collected, and the cart needs three feet of clearance from parked cars, mailboxes and anything else in the way.
What the recycling cart takes, and what it does not
The city's recycling list covers aluminium cans and foil, brown paper bags, empty aerosol cans, flattened cardboard, junk mail, magazines, newspapers, office paper, paperboard, phone books, pie tins, plastics numbered one to seven and steel cans. Glass bottles and jars and plastic bags are not accepted, and glass has its own free drop-off at the Rio Rancho Landfill on Carpenter Street.
The Rio Rancho Landfill takes one residential load of up to 1,000 pounds per household per month at no charge, with the excess charged at the gate rate and nothing carried over to another month. Bring a valid driver's license and a current Rio Rancho WM bill dated within the last 60 days or a receipt, with the address inside the city limits and matching the identification, and keep hazardous waste, Freon appliances, bulk liquids and business waste off the load.
The Sandoval County Landfill on Iris Road is open Monday through Saturday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., a load larger than a standard pickup has to be in the gate before 3:30 p.m., and payment is cash or a business check only. Every load has to be tarped or a no tarp fee is added, and the household hazardous waste collection at that site is suspended.
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.
A household with a couch, a mattress, an appliance or another heavy item that will not fit in the cart and that it would rather not haul itself.
Cost & conditions
WM publishes no flat rate because pricing and available options vary by area and depend on what and how much is being collected. The agent gives an estimate before the pickup is scheduled, so confirm the price for the exact items before booking.
Arrange it
Log in to My WM and use the bulk item pickup action from the services page, or speak to an agent, describe the items and accept the estimate before the pickup day is set.
Acceptance varies by area and the pickup covers bulk and heavy household items rather than a whole property cleanout. Construction waste, auto parts, tires, hazardous waste and electronic or medical waste are refused in the regular service, and hazardous waste has a separate collection route.

A household or small contractor with a bagged load, furniture, an appliance, a mattress, a television, concrete or a pile of construction debris.
Cost & conditions
From $1 per bag at the Sandoval County Landfill, where a bagged load is capped at four bags and larger loads move to the bed level, above bed level, truck trailer, per ton and per item rates. Any customer delivering to the county scale, with payment by cash or a business check only. Tires are limited to four passenger tires per trip, recycling items are free, clean fill is free, and a no tarp fee is added to an untarped residential or commercial load.
Arrange it

Household hazardous waste is not accepted while the county collection is suspended, and biomedical waste, sharps, ammunition, flares, fireworks, propane tanks, burn barrels or ashes, commercial and industrial hazardous items, metal frame demolition with concrete, concrete larger than three feet and vehicle bodies or trailers are all refused.
Arrange the At Your Door collection for problem items
A household with electronics, paint, motor oil, pool chemicals, batteries or other problem material that no longer has a county drop-off.
Cost & conditions
The city publishes the route rather than a price, so call WM to find out what the collection costs and which of the household materials it will take at a Rio Rancho address before a kit is ordered.
Arrange it
Call 1-800-449-7587 on a weekday between 6 a.m. and 6 p.m., or use wmatyourdoor.com, to check the items and schedule the collection, then follow the mailed kit and set the labeled items out before 7 a.m. on the pickup day.
The service covers household problem materials that the cart and the landfill cannot take, and it is only useful for a household that will label and stage the items itself. Where the material is a refrigerant appliance or a load of construction debris, the landfill routes apply instead.

Use a city e-waste recycling drive
A household with a television, computer or small electronic device that can wait for one of the city's scheduled collection events.
Cost & conditions
The city does not publish a price for the drives, and the accepted and prohibited items vary between them, so check the event flyer before loading a device.
Arrange it
Drive to the senior center hosting the event on its date and unload the items yourself, since the drives are self-service.
The drives run for a few hours on their dates only, are hosted with Rio Rancho Senior Services, and each one has its own accepted and prohibited list. Remove personal data from a device before handing it over.

Prices, timing and the details that matter at your address.
How much does pickup cost?+
Choose your items to see the exact price. A standard sofa is $79 first and $29 additional. The highest first-item price applies once; every remaining item uses its additional-item price. Loading, transportation and disposal are included. Review any applicable sales tax and the final total before payment.
Can I book a pickup for today?+
Book by 2pm at your pickup address for same-day pickup, where available. Choose from the dates shown at checkout. Your booking is for a pickup day, and we text you when your hauler is on the way.
Do my items need to be outside when I book?+
You can book while your items are still inside. Arrange any indoor carrying and have everything outside and accessible according to your confirmation. We load and haul it away from there. Contact us before booking if your property has restricted access.
Can a couch go out with the regular trash?+
No. The curbside service is a cart service for bagged household trash, and WM lists sofas, furniture items and cabinets as bulk items that need their own pickup request. A Rio Rancho household can also use the free monthly load at the Rio Rancho Landfill instead.Official guidance
What does a mattress cost to dispose of here?+
The Sandoval County Landfill publishes a per mattress rate that is charged instead of the weight rate, and the load has to be tarped or a residential no tarp fee is added. A household that books the WM bulk pickup instead is quoted by WM when the pickup is scheduled, and the free monthly Rio Rancho Landfill allowance covers a mattress inside the published weight limit.Official guidance
Where does an appliance go in Rio Rancho?+
The Sandoval County Landfill at 2708 Iris Rd NE charges appliances as their own line on its rate table. The Rio Rancho Landfill instead prohibits appliances that hold Freon, so a refrigerator or air conditioner should be confirmed with the county before it is loaded, and a WM bulk pickup is quoted by WM when it is scheduled.Official guidance
Will a refrigerator be taken with Freon still in it?+
Not at the Rio Rancho Landfill, which prohibits appliances with Freon, and the county landfill does not state whether it accepts a charged unit even though it prices appliances. Confirm the unit with the county landfill or with WM before it is loaded, and keep it out of the curbside cart in any case.Official guidance
Where do televisions and computers go in Rio Rancho?+
They cannot go in the trash cart, because electronic waste is refused there. WM's At Your Door Special Collection takes electronics along with paint, oil, pool chemicals and batteries, the city runs e-waste drives at the senior centers, and the Sandoval County Landfill charges televisions as their own line on its rate table.Official guidance
Who collects trash in Rio Rancho?+
Waste Management, under the city's franchise. The city selected WM as the residential provider, WM supplies the 96 gallon gray cart for weekly collection, and a household sets up its own WM profile so the service and the bill are in its own name. Additional carts are available for a fee, and a missed pickup has to be reported within three days.Official guidance
Is there still a household hazardous waste drop-off?+
Not at the county landfill, where the household hazardous waste collection is suspended and hazardous waste is listed as not accepted. The city routes paint, motor oil, pool chemicals, batteries and electronics to WM's At Your Door Special Collection, which is arranged by phone or online and mails a collection kit.Official guidance
What cannot go in the curbside cart?+
Construction waste, auto parts, tires, household hazardous waste such as paint, oil and household cleaners, and medical or electronic waste are all refused in the curbside service, and the load has to be bagged with the lid closed. The city's recycling list also refuses glass bottles and jars and plastic bags, and glass has its own free drop-off at the Rio Rancho Landfill.Official guidance
