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 Troy NY: start with the item’s collection rules, then choose the arrangement that fits.
Reviewed · Sources below
Furniture is collected by appointment on the city bulk route, and a couch, a dining table or a single chair each carry their own published price.
A mattress or box spring is collected on the city bulk route by appointment and is priced as its own line on the city schedule.
Stoves, washers, dryers, water tanks and lawn mowers go out on the city bulk route as white goods, while scrap metal and bicycles are collected at no charge.
Exercise equipment does not have its own line on the city schedule, so a treadmill or weight machine has to be confirmed with the dispatcher before it is booked.
The handoff matters
Every bulk item has to be scheduled with the Public Works dispatcher at 518-270-4579 or through the city's online request form, which requires a phone number. If a pile appears at the curb or in the alley without a request, the property owner receives a removal charge and a penalty under the city littering code.
Bulk trash collection rules, appointment process and refused itemsItems may not be placed at the curb until after 6 p.m. the night before the confirmed pickup date, and household garbage follows a similar window, out after 7 p.m. the night before or before 6 a.m. on the collection day. Garbage has to be in the city-provided water-tight container rather than in a bag, and recyclables go out in the city blue container in the same window.

Two appliances side by side count as one haul, so grouping the pieces keeps the hauling part of the bill down. Bills go to the property owner and are due 30 days from the bill date, and billing questions go to the Office of General Services at 518-279-7141.
