City collection A couch or other furniture piece comes off the curb on a booked city large item collection, which is charged by volume rather than by item. $50 for for the first eight cubic yards of a booked large item collection, with each additional cubic yard charged at the published rate beyond that and tax added to all charges. City of Santa Fe residential Public Utilities customers whose account is not more than thirty days delinquent, with the collection booked at 505-955-2200 for the next available slot and no same-day service.
City collection A mattress or box spring is named on the city large item list and rides the same volume based collection, with no separate mattress rate published. $50 for for the first eight cubic yards of a booked large item collection, with each additional cubic yard charged at the published rate beyond that and tax added to all charges. City of Santa Fe residential Public Utilities customers whose account is not more than thirty days delinquent, with the collection booked at 505-955-2200; mattresses can also travel as weighed trash at the county facility instead.
City collection An empty appliance rides the city volume based collection, and the county transfer station recycles white goods with refrigerant appliances costing more per unit. $5 per appliance recycled at the Buckman Road transfer station, with an appliance containing refrigerant charged at a higher per unit rate, or as part of a booked city large item collection charged by volume instead. City of Santa Fe residents using the large item collection with an empty appliance, or Santa Fe County households dropping white goods at the transfer station, where a refrigerator must be empty and county transfer stations ask for a CFC certificate.
City collection Trash only goes in the city cart unless a paid bag tag is attached, and tagged bags go out with the regular collection. $15 per sheet of five bag tags bought from Utility Billing, with each tag fastened to a bag of extra trash put out with the regular collection. City of Santa Fe residential refuse customers buying tags by phone from Utility Billing at 505-955-4333 or in person at 801 W San Mateo Rd.

The local disposal guide
Will the city take it?
Santa Fe runs weekly curbside trash and recycling with city-issued carts, and anything that will not fit in a cart is booked as a fee-based large item collection through the Environmental Services Division at 505-955-2200. That collection is charged by volume, not by item, and it accepts furniture, mattresses and box springs, appliances that are empty, carpet, doors, lumber, pallets, bundled brush, bundled construction material and lawnmowers with the fuel drained. It refuses electronics, tires, hazardous material, dirt, rocks, concrete and anything with a title. Everything else goes to the Santa Fe Solid Waste Management Agency, which runs the Buckman Road Recycling and Transfer Station and the Caja del Rio Landfill for Santa Fe County waste: appliances are recycled at the transfer station, tires have their own free weekend once a month, household hazardous waste is taken there every Friday and Saturday, and electronic waste is priced by weight with a separate per unit rate for televisions and monitors. The transfer station is also where a garage cleanout or a load of renovation material goes, weighed by vehicle and charged at the scale.
A couch or other furniture piece comes off the curb on a booked city large item collection, which is charged by volume rather than by item.
City cost & eligibility
$50 for for the first eight cubic yards of a booked large item collection, with each additional cubic yard charged at the published rate beyond that and tax added to all charges. City of Santa Fe residential Public Utilities customers whose account is not more than thirty days delinquent, with the collection booked at 505-955-2200 for the next available slot and no same-day service.
When & how
Book the pickup by calling the Environmental Services Division at 505-955-2200, then have the items at the curb in an area free of obstructions by 7:00 a.m. on the designated day. If the load is larger than eight cubic yards, a staff member assesses the volume on the Monday of the collection week and calls to confirm the additional fee before collection.
Get it ready
Keep furniture empty and liftable, stack or bundle anything loose, keep bundles under 50 pounds, and leave three to five feet of clearance from carts, mailboxes, fences, walls, meters, parked cars and low trees. Furniture must not block a sidewalk or the road, and cancelling a booked collection needs at least one city working day of notice.
A mattress or box spring is named on the city large item list and rides the same volume based collection, with no separate mattress rate published.
City cost & eligibility
$50 for for the first eight cubic yards of a booked large item collection, with each additional cubic yard charged at the published rate beyond that and tax added to all charges. City of Santa Fe residential Public Utilities customers whose account is not more than thirty days delinquent, with the collection booked at 505-955-2200; mattresses can also travel as weighed trash at the county facility instead.
When & how
Call 505-955-2200 to book the next available collection slot, with no same-day service, and have the mattress at the curb by 7:00 a.m. on the designated day. A household that hauls its own load can instead take the mattress to the Buckman Road transfer station, where trash is charged by vehicle weight.
Get it ready
Keep the bedding dry and whole, take the frame and headboard off because they are separate pieces, and stand the mattress clear of carts, mailboxes and driveways. Do not put a mattress in a recycling cart or a drop-off recycling container, because those containers take only the listed recyclables.
An empty appliance rides the city volume based collection, and the county transfer station recycles white goods with refrigerant appliances costing more per unit.
City cost & eligibility
$5 per appliance recycled at the Buckman Road transfer station, with an appliance containing refrigerant charged at a higher per unit rate, or as part of a booked city large item collection charged by volume instead. City of Santa Fe residents using the large item collection with an empty appliance, or Santa Fe County households dropping white goods at the transfer station, where a refrigerator must be empty and county transfer stations ask for a CFC certificate.
When & how
Either call 505-955-2200 and put the empty appliance at the curb by 7:00 a.m. on the appointment day, or take it to the Buckman Road transfer station at 2600 Buckman Road, open Monday to Sunday 8:00 a.m. to 4:45 p.m. Capital Scrap Metals and Mr. G's Recycling also take appliances.
Get it ready
Empty the unit and remove food, secure the doors and drum, and keep appliances out of the recycling carts. Refrigerant has to be handled properly because the toxins are removed before the metal is recycled, and some retailers take the old unit away when they deliver a new one.
The city refuses electronics at the curb, and the county's own pages disagree on whether a television is recycled at the transfer station or handled as trash, so the set has to be confirmed first.
City cost & eligibility
The agency publishes a per unit rate for televisions and computer monitors under recycling and also states on its device page that the transfer station recycles computer monitors only and that televisions are trash, so the route and the amount both have to be confirmed with the agency at (505) 424-1850 or at the scale house before a set is dropped off.
When & how
Check the route before loading the vehicle. The transfer station is open Monday to Sunday 8:00 a.m. to 4:45 p.m. at 2600 Buckman Road, and the city's own large item collection refuses electronics, so a television is never part of a curbside pickup.
Get it ready
Keep the set whole and dry, erase anything stored on it, and never put it in a recycling cart or a drop-off recycling container, because electronic waste is banned from the county landfill and the drop-off centers take only glass, cardboard, paper, plastic and cartons.
Electronic waste is banned from the landfill and is taken at the county transfer station seven days a week, charged by weight with a per unit rate for televisions and monitors.
City cost & eligibility
Electronic waste is charged by weight at a published per ton rate with a separate per unit rate for televisions and computer monitors, and the scale applies a minimum load charge to a small recyclable load, so the amount for one printer or laptop depends on what the scale reads and should be confirmed at the facility.
When & how
Drop electronics at the Buckman Road transfer station at 2600 Buckman Road, open Monday to Sunday 8:00 a.m. to 4:45 p.m. and closed on the listed holidays. The city's drop-off recycling centers at 3184 Jemez Road and 2950 Agua Fria St take only glass, cardboard, mixed paper, plastic and cartons, so electronics do not belong there.
Get it ready
Erase stored data, keep power supplies and cables with the device, remove batteries where they come out easily, and keep cords and chargers out of the recycling cart, because electronic waste is banned from the landfill and the drop-off containers refuse it.
Bundled renovation material can ride the city large item collection, while dirt, rocks and concrete are refused and everything else goes over the county scale.
City cost & eligibility
From $8.5 for minimum load charge for a covered self-haul load at the Buckman Road transfer station, with the fee rising by vehicle weight class and heavier vehicles or vehicles with trailers charged per ton, or the first eight cubic yards of a booked city large item collection at the city volume rate. Santa Fe County waste only at the county facilities, no self dumping trailers at the transfer station, no load over 12,500 pounds gross vehicle weight, and every load meeting the size limits for wood, concrete and tree material; city large item collections are limited to city residential utility customers.
When & how
For the city route, bundle or containerize the material and add it to a large item collection booked at 505-955-2200, at the curb by 7:00 a.m. on the appointment day. For the county route, take the load to the Buckman Road transfer station during its open hours, or to the Caja del Rio Landfill for cash customers Monday to Friday 7:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. and Saturdays 7:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
Get it ready
Containerize or bundle loose debris, plywood, boards, sheet rock and broken tile, keep containers and bundles under 50 pounds, and keep dirt, rocks and concrete out of the city collection. Cut wood, lumber, plywood and fence material to four feet, concrete, asphalt, bricks and cinder blocks to two feet by two feet, tree trunks to eighteen inches in diameter and stumps to three feet in diameter before arriving at the county scale.
No Santa Fe page names a treadmill or weight machine, so the machine has to be cleared with the city or the county before it moves.
City cost & eligibility
The city publishes no exercise machine rate and the county names no exercise machine, and the two possible routes are priced differently, with the city charging a large item collection by volume and the county charging trash by vehicle weight, so confirm the route at 505-955-2200 before moving a machine.
When & how
Call the Environmental Services Division at 505-955-2200 and describe the machine. If it is accepted it is added to a booked large item collection and put out by 7:00 a.m. on the appointed day, and otherwise the load goes over the county scale at 2600 Buckman Road during open hours.
Get it ready
Fold or break the machine down as far as the manufacturer allows, take the console and any battery off so the electronics can be handled separately, secure loose decks and handles for transport, and keep the frame out of the recycling cart and the county drop-off recycling containers.
Furniture, appliances, carpet, doors, lumber, pallets, mattresses and bundled brush ride one booked city collection charged by volume.
City cost & eligibility
$50 for for the first eight cubic yards of a booked large item collection, with each additional cubic yard charged at the published rate beyond that and tax added to all charges. City of Santa Fe residential Public Utilities customers whose account is not more than thirty days delinquent, with the collection booked at 505-955-2200; anything the city refuses goes over the county scale instead.
When & how
Book by phone for the next available slot, with no same-day service, and have everything at the curb by 7:00 a.m. on the designated day. If the order is larger than eight cubic yards, a staff member assesses the volume during the collection week and calls to confirm the extra fee before the truck comes.
Get it ready
Containerize or bundle loose material, keep bundles and containers under 50 pounds, put broken glass, cactus and other sharp objects in a separate labelled box, and leave three to five feet of clearance from carts, mailboxes, fences, walls, meters and parked cars. Give at least one city working day of notice to cancel a booking or the collection is charged as if it happened.
Tires are refused at the curb and at the landfill, and the county transfer station takes them with a free weekend at the start of every month.
City cost & eligibility
$3 per passenger tire at the Buckman Road transfer station when fewer than eight tires are brought, with commercial truck tires charged at a higher per tire rate, loads over eight tires charged by weight and the first weekend of each month free for tires. Santa Fe County households bringing their own tires; ten or more tires require a hauling form from the agency, and the Caja del Rio Landfill accepts no tires at all.
When & how
Bring up to eight tires during normal transfer station hours, Monday to Sunday 8:00 a.m. to 4:45 p.m., or use the free tire weekend on the first Saturday and Sunday of each month. Larger loads must be weighed in and out and ten or more tires need a hauling form arranged with the agency at (505) 424-1850.
Get it ready
Keep tires out of the curbside trash and out of the landfill load, because the landfill refuses them and the transfer station is the county's tire route. A retailer that sells or installs tires has to take back tires of about the same size it sells, with the collection fee already inside the price of the new tires.
Paint, cleaners, motor oil, pesticides and other hazardous products go to the county collection center at Buckman Road every Friday and Saturday.
City cost & eligibility
The agency charges household hazardous waste by weight at a published per ton rate for Santa Fe city and county residents and describes the charge as a small one, so the exact amount is set at the scale and should be confirmed at the facility or by calling (505) 424-1850.
When & how
Take the material to the household hazardous waste collection center at the Buckman Road transfer station, 2600 Buckman Road, which is open every Friday and Saturday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:45 p.m. The rest of the transfer station is open Monday to Sunday 8:00 a.m. to 4:45 p.m.
Get it ready
Keep products in their labelled containers so staff can identify them, never mix chemicals, and never put hazardous material in a cart, a drop-off recycling container or the drain. Do not leave material at the center when it is closed, and check the reuse area, where usable products are given away free.
Trash only goes in the city cart unless a paid bag tag is attached, and tagged bags go out with the regular collection.
City cost & eligibility
$15 per sheet of five bag tags bought from Utility Billing, with each tag fastened to a bag of extra trash put out with the regular collection. City of Santa Fe residential refuse customers buying tags by phone from Utility Billing at 505-955-4333 or in person at 801 W San Mateo Rd.
When & how
Buy the tags before the collection day and put the tagged bags at the curb by 7:00 a.m. on the regular trash day, alongside the city cart. Carts left out after collection are removed by 8:00 a.m. the following day.
Get it ready
Keep the tagged bags closed and liftable beside the cart rather than on top of it, and keep construction debris, appliances, electronics, tires and hazardous material out of the bag, because those items have their own routes.
Weekly carts go out by 7 a.m. and come back the next morning
Every residence has one 96 gallon green trash cart and one 64 gallon blue recycling cart, collected weekly. Carts may go out as early as 6:00 p.m. the day before, must be at the curb by 7:00 a.m. on the collection day, and have to be back off the curb by 8:00 a.m. the following day. They go out with the wheels facing the curb, the lid closed, and nothing stacked alongside, because overflow, blocked carts and carts facing the wrong way are not collected.
Large item material goes out only on the day it is booked
A large item collection is ordered at 505-955-2200, scheduled for the next available slot with no same-day service, and collected on a designated day, so the material sits at the curb by 7:00 a.m. that morning and not before. Loose debris, plywood, boards, sheet rock and broken tile are containerized or bundled under 50 pounds, sharp objects go in a separate labelled box, and the pile stays three to five feet clear of carts, mailboxes, fences, walls, meters and parked cars.
The Buckman Road Recycling and Transfer Station at 2600 Buckman Road takes Santa Fe County waste Monday to Sunday 8:00 a.m. to 4:45 p.m., with household hazardous waste only on Fridays and Saturdays. Trash is charged by vehicle weight class with a minimum load charge, appliances, televisions, monitors, tires, green waste and scrap metal have their own per unit or per ton rates, drop-off recycling is free, and a load that is not covered or secured draws an after-hours charge. Size limits apply to wood, concrete and tree material, and no self dumping trailer is allowed without an exception.
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 Santa Fe Environmental Services Division with the Santa Fe Solid Waste Management Agency
Book a city large item collection

Cost & conditions
$50 for for the first eight cubic yards of a booked collection, with each additional cubic yard charged at the published rate beyond that and tax added to all charges. City of Santa Fe residential Public Utilities customers whose account is not more than thirty days delinquent; the collection is booked at 505-955-2200 and the volume is assessed and confirmed before the load is collected when it exceeds eight cubic yards.

No same-day service, and an account more than thirty days delinquent is not eligible. The collection refuses electronics, tires, hazardous material, compressed gas and air cylinders, dirt, rocks, concrete, commercial or industrial material and anything with a title of ownership, and cancelling a booking without one city working day of notice is charged as if the collection happened.
City of Santa Fe Environmental Services Division with the Santa Fe Solid Waste Management Agency
Take the load over the county scale at Buckman Road
A household with a cleanout load, renovation material, appliances, electronics, tires, green waste or hazardous material that the curbside collection will not take.
Cost & conditions
From $8.5 for minimum load charge for a covered self-haul trash load at the transfer station, rising by vehicle weight class with heavier vehicles and vehicles with trailers charged per ton, plus a per unit charge for appliances, a higher per unit charge for an appliance with refrigerant, a per unit charge for televisions and monitors, a per tire or per ton charge for tires, and a per ton charge for green waste, scrap metal and household hazardous waste.

City of Santa Fe Environmental Services Division with the Santa Fe Solid Waste Management Agency
Use the Caja del Rio Landfill for a heavy load
A household or small contractor with a heavy load of general trash or construction material that is easier to tip at the landfill than at the transfer station.
Cost & conditions
From $62.5 per ton for a cash customer load under 18,000 pounds gross vehicle weight, with a lower per ton rate at 18,000 pounds and over and separate per ton rates for special waste such as sludge and petroleum contaminated soil. Waste generated in Santa Fe County only, with cash customers admitted Monday to Friday 7:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. and Saturdays 7:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
Arrange it
Take the load to the landfill off Wildlife Way, enter through the scale, and pay by cash, check, debit or credit card at the gate. The site is closed on Sundays, New Year's Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day.
The landfill takes no tires, and its own page describes the site as self dumping trailers only with some exceptions, so a trailer load has to be checked before arriving. Appliances, electronics and hazardous material belong at the transfer station counters instead of the landfill face.
Use a retailer or a reuse outlet for a working item
A household with a television, an appliance, scrap metal, building material or usable furniture that a store or donation center may take.
Cost & conditions
The listed outlets set their own terms: the county page says most companies charge a small fee to recycle a television or monitor, the fee table prices appliances and refrigerant appliances per unit, and reuse outlets such as the Habitat ReStore decide case by case, so confirm with the outlet before loading the vehicle.
Arrange it
Best Buy at 3533 Zafarano Dr #a6 takes televisions 32 inches or smaller; Mr. G's Recycling at 7625 Baca Ln takes computer monitors and appliances; Capital Scrap Metals at 1162 Cooks Lane takes appliances and scrap metal; the Habitat for Humanity ReStore at 2520 Camino Entrada takes building materials, tools and home improvement items; and the county donation lists cover furniture, clothing and sporting equipment.
Best Buy's television limit is 32 inches, Mr. G's takes computer monitors only rather than televisions, the county transfer station is the only route with a published per unit rate for televisions and monitors, and reuse outlets can refuse worn or broken items.

General trash and construction material from Santa Fe County, weighed at the scale and charged by the ton, with separate rates for special waste such as sludge and petroleum contaminated soil.
Waste generated in Santa Fe County only; no tires at all; the site describes itself as self dumping trailers only with some exceptions, so a trailer has to be checked before arriving; closed Sundays, New Year's Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day; appliances, electronics and hazardous material belong at the transfer station counters rather than the landfill face.
Cash customers Monday to Friday 7:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. and Saturdays 7:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Pre-approved commercial account holders may enter Monday to Friday and Saturdays 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

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.
How do I get rid of a couch in Santa Fe?+
Book a large item collection with the Environmental Services Division at 505-955-2200. The service is charged by volume rather than by piece, so a couch goes out with the rest of the load on the designated day, at the curb by 7:00 a.m. and clear of carts, mailboxes, walls and parked cars. Furniture has to be empty, bundles have to stay under 50 pounds, and a load larger than eight cubic yards is assessed for an additional fee on the Monday of the collection week.Official guidance
Will Santa Fe collect a mattress at the curb?+
Yes, through the booked large item collection. A mattress and box spring are both on the city list, so they are added to a special pickup ordered at 505-955-2200, charged by the eight cubic yard volume along with anything else on the same load, and set at the curb by 7:00 a.m. on the designated day. Nothing is collected the same day it is ordered, and a load over eight cubic yards is assessed for an extra fee the Monday of the collection week.Official guidance
Where does an old refrigerator go in Santa Fe?+
Two routes. The city large item collection takes an empty appliance at the curb when it is added to a booked pickup at 505-955-2200, charged by volume with the rest of the load. The county route is the Buckman Road transfer station at 2600 Buckman Road, which recycles white goods for a per unit charge and charges more for an appliance that still contains refrigerant, with Capital Scrap Metals at 1162 Cooks Lane and Mr. G's Recycling at 7625 Baca Ln as the other named drop-offs.Official guidance
What can go in a Santa Fe large item collection?+
Appliances that are empty, barbecues with the fuel and charcoal out, brush and green waste in bundles with limbs cut to four feet, carpet, doors, furniture that is empty, lawnmowers with the fuel and oil drained, lumber, mattresses and box springs, and pallets. The load is charged by the eight cubic yard volume, everything is at the curb by 7:00 a.m. on the appointed day, bundles stay under 50 pounds, and the city refuses electronics, tires, hazardous material, dirt, rocks, concrete and anything with a title.Official guidance
How do I book a large item pickup in Santa Fe?+
Call the Environmental Services Division at 505-955-2200 and take the next available slot, because no same-day service is offered. The collection is charged by volume for the first eight cubic yards with each additional cubic yard charged after that and tax added, an account more than thirty days delinquent is not eligible, and a load larger than eight cubic yards is assessed and confirmed before it is collected. Items go to the curb by 7:00 a.m. on the designated day, and cancelling without one city working day of notice is charged as if the collection happened.Official guidance
Where do Santa Fe electronics and televisions go?+
Electronic waste goes to the Buckman Road Recycling and Transfer Station at 2600 Buckman Road, which takes it seven days a week from 8:00 a.m. to 4:45 p.m., and it is banned from the county landfill. Televisions are the awkward case: the agency rate table prices televisions and computer monitors per unit, while the agency's device page says the station recycles computer monitors only and treats televisions as trash, so confirm at (505) 424-1850 before a trip. The city large item collection refuses all electronics, and Best Buy at 3533 Zafarano Dr takes televisions 32 inches or smaller for a fee.Official guidance
Can renovation debris go in a Santa Fe large item pickup?+
Partly. Loose construction debris, plywood, boards, sheet rock and broken tile are allowed only if they are containerized or bundled in parcels under 50 pounds, and they ride the volume based large item collection booked at 505-955-2200. Dirt, rocks and concrete are refused at the curb, so those loads go over the county scale at the Buckman Road transfer station, where wood and lumber must be cut to four feet, concrete and asphalt to two feet by two feet, tree trunks to eighteen inches and stumps to three feet.Official guidance
When are tires free in Santa Fe?+
The first Saturday and Sunday of every month are free tire days at the Buckman Road transfer station. At other times up to eight tires are charged per passenger tire, more than eight tires are charged by weight with a weigh in and weigh out, and ten or more tires also need a hauling form arranged with the agency at (505) 424-1850. The city large item collection refuses tires, the Caja del Rio Landfill accepts none at all, and a tire retailer that sells or installs tires has to take back tires of about the same size it sells.Official guidance
When can I take paint and chemicals in Santa Fe?+
Every Friday and Saturday, from 8:00 a.m. to 4:45 p.m., at the household hazardous waste collection center at the Buckman Road transfer station, 2600 Buckman Road. The center takes leftover household products whose labels carry a flammable, ignitable, corrosive, reactive or toxic warning, including drain cleaners, motor oil, paints, solvents and pesticides, from Santa Fe city and county residents for a small charge set at the scale. Material stays in its labelled container, is never mixed, and must not be left at the center when it is closed.Official guidance
What can I do with extra bags of trash in Santa Fe?+
Buy bag tags and attach one to each extra bag. Tags are sold in sheets of five, by phone from Utility Billing at 505-955-4333 or in person at 801 W San Mateo Rd, and tagged bags go to the curb by 7:00 a.m. on the regular collection day beside the city cart. Untagged bags and overflowing carts are not collected, and large items, appliances, electronics, tires and hazardous material never belong in a bag because they have their own routes.Official guidance
