A clear count. An exact price.

Count the bags and boxes, not everything inside.

A few simple choices turn a mixed pile into a clear booking. No need to estimate how much of a truck it might fill.

Filled bags and boxes

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 and containers

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.

Furniture and other larger items

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.

Franchised curbside collection and cart sizes

Accepted with preparation

Happy Valley households use one of the county's franchised garbage and recycling companies, and the county sets the fees and service standards the collectors must offer.

City cost & eligibility
The monthly charge depends on the cart size, the collection frequency and the fee zone, and the county publishes a fee-zone lookup rather than a single rate, so confirm the amount with the company serving the address or with the county solid waste office at 503-557-6363.
When & how
The company sets the collection day for the address, and the county asks residents to call the company to start or stop service, request an extra service, report a missed pickup or ask a billing question.
Get it ready
Choose the cart size that matches the household, since a 20-gallon cart holds two 13-gallon bags, a 35-gallon cart three, a 60-gallon cart four and a 90-gallon cart five, and keep recycling empty and dry before it goes in the bin. Occasional extra bags are allowed at 35 gallons maximum, with a light bag at the curb costing less than a heavy bag and a bag picked up at the house costing more.

Bulky waste pickup through the hauler

Accepted with preparation

Bulky waste such as appliances and furniture is collected by the franchised company, with a minimum and a maximum fee plus a weight and special handling charge.

City cost & eligibility
From $5 for the minimum bulky waste fee, which can rise to a maximum of $40 plus a charge based on weight and special handling needs, with an hourly fee added when the item is not easily accessible. Happy Valley households through the franchised company serving the address, arranged directly with the company. The county says large appliances, furniture and other items can be picked up even if the household is not a regular customer.
When & how
Call the company serving the address to arrange the pickup and agree the fee, and note the county's contamination and distance fees if the pile sits far from the curb.
Get it ready
Bring the item out where the crew can reach it, because a load that is not easily accessible draws an hourly handling fee, and keep the load to the bulky waste categories the county names so it is not treated as waste needing a container.

Couches and household furniture

Accepted with preparation

Furniture is named in the county's bulky waste service, so a couch moves through the franchised hauler pickup on the same fee structure.

City cost & eligibility
From $5 for the minimum bulky waste fee, which can rise to a maximum of $40 plus a charge based on weight and special handling needs. Happy Valley households through the franchised company serving the address, with the pickup arranged directly with the company.
When & how
Call the company serving the address to arrange the pickup and agree the fee.
Get it ready
Keep the piece accessible so the hourly handling fee does not apply, and ask the company whether it counts as one bulky item before the crew arrives. A piece that is still usable may be easier to pass on than to pay to haul.
Services, fees and policies set for unincorporated county, Happy Valley and Barlow

Mattresses and box springs

Special rules apply

The county names mattresses in its bulky waste guidance, so bedding that is too large for the bin and cannot be donated goes out as a bulky pickup arranged with the garbage company serving the address, or to a drop-off location.

City cost & eligibility
Bulky waste is published with a minimum 5 dollar and maximum 40 dollar fee plus weight and special handling, and the county tells households that extra fees may apply, but the mattress amount depends on the load and the company, so confirm the pickup and the price with the garbage company serving the address or the county solid waste office on 503-557-6363 before the mattress goes out.
When & how
Call the garbage company serving the address to arrange the bulky pickup, since the county asks households to have an item too large for the bin collected that way, and take it to a drop-off location instead if the company will not collect it.
Get it ready
Keep the mattress dry and off the street until the pickup or the trip is confirmed, and ask the company whether it needs to be bagged or wrapped before it goes out.

Appliances and refrigerant units

Accepted with preparation

When & how
Call the company serving the address to arrange the pickup, and expect the coolant fee to be added to a refrigerator or air conditioner whatever its condition.
Get it ready
Empty the unit and secure the doors so it can be handled, and tell the company that the unit holds refrigerant so the coolant fee is quoted up front rather than added at the truck.

Construction, demolition and clean-out material

Accepted with preparation

Construction and clean-out material moves in a clean-up container or dumpster with a published fee structure, and demolition waste may need asbestos testing and paperwork first.

Get it ready
Keep the load to what the container is rated for, never overload it, and treat demolition and remodeling debris as material that may need asbestos testing and documentation, because the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality requires it and transfer stations will not accept suspect asbestos-containing material without the paperwork. The county adds that salvaging and reusing construction material can reduce disposal costs.

Exercise equipment

Special rules apply

Exercise equipment is not named anywhere in the county material, so the machine has to be confirmed with the company that serves the address.

Get it ready

Yard debris

Accepted with preparation

When & how

Get it ready

Accepted with preparation

Standard recycling follows the county's bin guide, and Happy Valley residents may add Recycle+, an on-call service for material the standard bin will not take.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

Everything runs through the company that serves the address

Start or stop service, request a change, report a missed pickup and ask billing questions through that company, and check the county's fee zone lookup to understand the rate, since the monthly bill depends on the cart size, the collection frequency and the zone.

Where can I take things the curbside service will not take?

To the county or Metro sites. Clackamas County Transfer Station in Sandy, the Metro South Transfer Station in Oregon City and the North Marion station in Woodburn take self-haul loads, the Metro South Household Hazardous Waste Facility on the Oregon City site takes hazardous products up to 35 gallons, Oregon E-Cycles sites take up to seven qualifying electronics at a time free, and yard debris goes to one of the listed landscape and yard waste facilities. The county asks residents to call each site first to confirm hours and accepted material.Official guidance
