The local disposal guide

Will the city
take it?

Ardmore separates routine trash from everything else. Household waste goes in a city supplied polycart that is collected once a week, and the cart is the only container the crew will empty. Bulky material runs on a different program entirely. Operation Pride sweeps each section of the city about every eight weeks for residential dwellings on city water service, collects furniture, appliances without refrigerant, brush, wood and up to four tires a residence each year, and the same program keeps a drop-off center open six days a week for residents who do not want to wait for the route. The division of labour matters: brush, boards, metal and other non household waste may not go in the polycart, hazardous material, asbestos, chemicals and lead based paint are refused by Operation Pride, and contractors have to haul their own project debris to the regional landfill.

Mattresses and box springs

Special rules apply

A mattress is not named on the Operation Pride list, so the piece is confirmed with the sanitation department first.

City cost & eligibility
No retained city page names a mattress or prints a bedding price. Operation Pride accepts furniture and household goods and publishes no per item charge beyond the monthly program rate, so call the sanitation department on 580-226-8855 and confirm whether a mattress or box spring counts as accepted furniture.
When & how
Confirm the piece first, then place it out for the Operation Pride service week or take it to the drop-off center during posted hours.
Get it ready

Appliances and white goods

Special rules apply

An appliance without refrigerant and with a removal certification is accepted by Operation Pride, and a unit holding freon is refused.

City cost & eligibility
No charge. An appliance without freon and with a removal certification is named on the Operation Pride allowed list and is covered by the monthly program charge, while an appliance containing freon is refused by the same program.
When & how
Put the prepared appliance out by 7 a.m. on the Monday of the Operation Pride service week, or take it to the drop-off center during posted hours.
Get it ready
Have the refrigerant removed by a qualified technician and keep the certification with the unit, because the program requires the removal certification for an appliance without freon and refuses a unit that still contains it. Empty the appliance, secure or remove the door, and keep it within ten feet of the curb in an accessible open area.

Televisions and electronics

Special rules apply

The city pages name batteries as accepted bulky material but say nothing about televisions or computers, so the route is confirmed first.

City cost & eligibility
No retained page names televisions, computers or electronics, and no city electronics fee is published. Call the sanitation department on 580-226-8855 and ask whether the item belongs in the Operation Pride pile, the drop-off center or another program before it is set out.
When & how
Confirm the item first, then use the Operation Pride service week or the drop-off center as directed.
Get it ready
Keep electronic items out of the polycart, delete personal data before handover, and remove any battery that comes out easily, because batteries are named on the accepted list while a device that still holds one may not be.

Special rules apply

Exercise machines are not named on the allowed list, so the piece is confirmed with the sanitation department.

Hazardous material, chemicals and paint

Special rules apply

City cost & eligibility
No retained page publishes a household hazardous waste collection or a price.

Keep all bulky waste within ten feet of the curb, pavement edge or road in an accessible open area, have it out no earlier or later than the weekend before the scheduled Monday and by 7 a.m. that Monday, and keep it away from power lines and low branches so the overhead grappler can reach it. Nothing goes on a gas meter, manhole, sewer clean out, storm sewer or water meter, and bulky waste may not sit in an alley, a yard easement or a driveway.

What leaving bulky debris out can cost

Leaving bulky items out for an extended period makes the city look unsightly and defeats the purpose of Operation Pride, so the code enforcement officer contacts anyone violating the ordinance and asks them to remove the debris. If the property owner does not comply, the city removes the material at the owner's expense, with a minimum charge per load plus an administration fee added to the water bill.

City of Ardmore Sanitation Department and the Operation Pride program

Add a second city polycart

A household whose weekly trash regularly overflows the standard polycart.

Cost & conditions
$15.31 for the published monthly residential rate for each additional city polycart. Residential customers on city collection inside the city limits. Each cart is serial numbered and registered to the address, and only city polycarts are collected, so extra cans and bags are not an alternative.
Arrange it
Contact the sanitation department to request the additional cart, then set it out at least two feet from the first cart on the collection day.

The extra cart adds the published monthly charge rather than covering bulky items, which still run through the separate Operation Pride program.

City of Ardmore Sanitation Department and the Operation Pride program

Use the Operation Pride drop-off center

A resident with bulky items who does not want to wait for the roughly eight week curbside sweep.

Cost & conditions
No charge. The drop-off center is part of the Operation Pride program funded by the published monthly residential charge, and it is limited to residential dwellings on city water service inside the city limits.
Arrange it
Bring the water bill and a driver's license to the center during its posted hours, and follow the attendant's direction on where to unload.

Commercial and contractor material, hazardous material, asbestos, chemicals, lead based paint, demolition material, vacant property material and trees twelve inches or larger are refused, and the allowance is one dump truck load at a time.

Open the Operation Pride page

With a new purchase

Contractor haul to the regional landfill

A contractor, business or property owner with project debris that Operation Pride refuses.

Cost & conditions
The city publishes the responsibility to haul to the regional landfill rather than a rate, so confirm the load and the tipping cost with the hauler and the landfill before the material leaves the site.
Arrange it
Arrange the haul directly, keep the debris off the curb and out of the alley, and confirm the landfill's hours and accepted material before delivering the load.

Business and contractor material is not eligible for Operation Pride, and illegal dumping on vacant lots or at residences is investigated by code enforcement with fines under the city ordinances.

Open the Operation Pride items page

Taking it somewhere yourself?

An Ardmore resident with a load to get rid of has two city options and one outside route. Bridging the wait between bulky sweeps, the Operation Pride Drop Off Center takes residential bulky material from households on city water service, with the water bill and a driver's license shown at the gate and hours from 8 a.m. to noon and 1 to 4:45 p.m. Monday through Saturday.

Before you book

Your questions.
Straight answers.

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 does the bulky collection work?

Operation Pride runs a scheduled route through each section of the city about every eight weeks and no appointment is needed. Residents put material within ten feet of the curb by 7 a.m. on the Monday of their service week and the crew collects within five working days.Official guidance

Can bulky items be dropped off instead?

Yes. The Operation Pride Drop Off Center takes bulky items from residents who do not want to wait for the route, and a copy of the water bill plus a driver's license has to be presented for verification.Official guidance

Will a mattress be collected in Ardmore?

The published allowed list names furniture and household goods rather than bedding itself, so a mattress has to be confirmed with the sanitation department before it is set out. The drop-off center at the Operation Pride site is the alternative if the piece is accepted.Official guidance

How should bedding be prepared if it is accepted?

Keep it dry and whole, place it within ten feet of the curb in an accessible open area, and have it out by 7 a.m. on the Monday of the Operation Pride service week for the section.Official guidance

Can a refrigerator with freon be set out?
