You want to know it is handled.
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 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.

A mattress is not part of the weekly curbside service in Hermiston. It leaves through a bulky item pickup requested from Sanitary Disposal, which advertises furniture and home appliances as the material it collects but publishes no item list or rate.
City cost & eligibility
No bulky item rate is published. The city Master Fee Schedule refers solid waste rates to Sanitary Disposal Fees and the hauler's charges and fees page carries no figures, so call Sanitary Disposal at 541-567-8842 and confirm the price and that the mattress is accepted before it goes out.
When & how
Request the pickup through the hauler, then set the mattress out on the day the hauler gives you. The weekly automatic service is the garbage cart only, so nothing large goes out without a request.
Get it ready
Keep the mattress dry, place it where the collection crew can reach it without blocking the cart or the sidewalk, and keep it separate from hazardous material, electronics and glass, which the program refuses.
Furniture is the hauler's own example of bulky material, so a couch leaves through the requested pickup rather than the weekly cart. The rate has to be confirmed because the hauler publishes none.
City cost & eligibility
The hauler publishes no bulky pickup price. Call Sanitary Disposal at 541-567-8842 to schedule the couch and confirm the cost, and ask whether the piece has to be broken down or tied before collection.
When & how
Book the pickup with the hauler and set the furniture out on the assigned day, keeping it clear of the garbage cart so the weekly collection is not disrupted.
Get it ready
Empty drawers and compartments, tie or close anything that could swing open, and keep the piece away from the sidewalk and the cart. Glass and mirrors are refused by the recycling programme, so keep them out of the bulky request.
Sanitary Disposal names home appliances among the bulky material it collects, and the transfer station takes municipal solid waste, so an appliance has a pickup route and a drop-off route. Neither publishes a rate or a refrigerant rule.
City cost & eligibility
No appliance rate or preparation rule is published. Call Sanitary Disposal at 541-567-8842 and confirm whether the unit is collected as bulky material, whether a refrigerator or air conditioner needs its refrigerant handled first, and what the pickup costs.
When & how
Book the pickup or take the appliance to the transfer station at 81144 N Hwy 395 during the posted hours, and confirm the terms first because the station accepts only non hazardous material.
Get it ready
Empty the unit and secure the doors before it leaves the house, and keep it out of the recycling cart, which accepts only paper, cardboard, plastic containers, metal cans, cartons and certain plastics when they are empty, clean and dry. Appliances are not part of the free state electronics programme.
Electronics are refused in the curbside recycling cart and in the curbside garbage, and they leave through Oregon E-Cycles or the hauler's depot. The state programme is free for televisions, computers, monitors and printers, seven items or fewer at a time.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Oregon E-Cycles is free for seven or fewer computers, laptops, tablets, monitors, televisions and printers at a time at participating collection sites, and keyboards and mice are also accepted free. Other types of electronics are not covered by the programme.
When & how
Take the device to a participating Oregon E-Cycles collection site, and use the state site locator or the toll free number 888-769-0149 to find the current nearest one, or bring it to the Sanitary Disposal depot on Highway 395, which the hauler's poster lists for electronics.
Get it ready
Wipe personal data before a computer leaves the house, and keep batteries, light bulbs, glass and hazardous items out of both the recycling cart and the electronics load. A contaminated recycling cart may be tagged or left unemptied.
Construction material is not collected at the curb. It goes to the Sanitary Disposal transfer station, which names construction and demolition debris among the waste it accepts. No rate is published.
City cost & eligibility
The transfer station publishes no per load or per ton rate, and the city fee schedule refers solid waste rates to Sanitary Disposal Fees without printing them. Call the transfer station at 541-567-9350 and confirm the price and any limit for the load before you haul it.
When & how
Take the material to 81144 N Hwy 395 and confirm the current hours before the trip, because the hauler's hours and holidays item carries no text on the page and the only published table sits in the city's Sanitary Disposal contact block.
Get it ready
Separate construction material from household garbage, yard waste and any hazardous material, since the station states that it accepts non hazardous municipal solid waste and inert materials only. Keep it out of the recycling cart, which takes only the listed recyclable materials.
Exercise equipment is not named in the hauler's bulky service description or in the published waste lists, so the machine is confirmed with Sanitary Disposal before it goes out.
City cost & eligibility
No rate is published for bulky material at all, and exercise equipment is not named. Call Sanitary Disposal at 541-567-8842, describe the machine, and confirm whether it is collected as bulky material or has to be taken to the transfer station.
When & how
Confirm the item first, then use the requested bulky pickup or take the machine to the transfer station on Highway 395 during the posted hours.
Get it ready
Break the machine down as far as it comes apart, remove loose weights and the console, and keep it off the sidewalk and away from the cart. Keep fluids, batteries and electronic components out of the load, since the station accepts non hazardous material only.
Bulky material moves on request through Sanitary Disposal or by hauling it to the transfer station. The only automatic weekly service is the garbage cart, and the curbside recycling cart is a required service that runs every other week.
City cost & eligibility
No bulky pickup rate is published, and the city fee schedule refers solid waste rates to Sanitary Disposal Fees without printing them. Call the hauler at 541-567-8842 for a pickup or the transfer station at 541-567-9350 for a drop-off, and confirm the cost either way.
When & how
Book the pickup with the hauler, or take the load to the transfer station at 81144 N Hwy 395 during the posted hours. Curbside recycling runs every other week in a 95 gallon cart.
Get it ready
Keep garbage inside the cart with the lid closed, because the city fee schedule applies overage charges when the lid does not close, material is left outside the cart, or the cart is overweight. Keep recyclables empty, clean and dry, and keep refused material out of both carts.
The weekly service is the cart, and overages are charged
Curbside garbage collection in Hermiston is contracted to Sanitary Disposal and the automatic weekly service is the garbage cart. The city fee schedule applies overage or extra charges when the lid does not close, garbage sits outside the cart or the cart weighs too much, and it also lists a non payment service charge and a same day return service charge for a cart that was not set out.
Curbside recycling is required and runs every other week
Oregon's recycling law requires curbside recycling for cities over 4,000 residents, and Hermiston's service began on July 6, 2026 in a 95 gallon cart collected every other week. Recyclables have to be empty, clean and dry, and a contaminated cart may be tagged or left unemptied.
Large items are requested, not scheduled automatically
Furniture, home appliances and similar bulky material move on a pickup request through Sanitary Disposal rather than with the weekly cart, and the hauler publishes no item list or price for that service. The transfer station on Highway 395 is the self haul alternative for municipal solid waste, construction debris, yard waste and tires.
Free depots, and a free yard trimming permit from City Hall
Two free recycling depots serve Hermiston in addition to curbside collection, one at the Sanitary Disposal site on Highway 395 and one near Theater Sports Park, and the city and hauler both publish the Highway 395 depot. Residents inside the city limits can also obtain a free yard trimming disposal permit at City Hall, and each permit is valid for two months.
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 inside the city limits with a mattress, couch, appliance or similar piece that will not fit the garbage cart.
Cost & conditions
The hauler publishes no bulky pickup rate and the city fee schedule refers solid waste rates to Sanitary Disposal Fees without printing them, so call 541-567-8842 and confirm the price and the item before it goes out.
Arrange it
Request the pickup through the hauler's bulky item form or by phone, then set the material out on the day the hauler assigns and keep it clear of the garbage cart.
Nothing large is collected automatically, hazardous material, electronics, batteries and glass are refused, and the city fee schedule applies overage charges when a cart is overfull or material is left outside it.
A household with construction and demolition debris, yard waste, tires, municipal solid waste or recyclable material to drop off in one trip.
Cost & conditions
The transfer station publishes no rates and the city fee schedule does not print them. Call 541-567-9350 to confirm the cost, the tire limit and the current opening hours before loading.
Arrange it
Drive to 81144 N Hwy 395 in Hermiston during the posted hours, and separate the load by material because the depot takes specific recyclables and refuses hazardous material.
The station accepts non hazardous municipal solid waste and inert material, the tire limit is ten per load, and the hauler's own hours and holidays item carries no published text, so hours should be confirmed by phone.
A household with seven or fewer televisions, computers, laptops, tablets, monitors or printers to recycle.
Cost & conditions
No charge. Oregon E-Cycles is free for seven or fewer of those devices at a time at participating collection sites, with keyboards and mice also free, and other types of electronics are not covered by the programme.
Arrange it
Find the nearest participating site through the state locator tool or the toll free number 888-769-0149, then bring the devices in during that site's hours. The hauler's brochure also lists electronics at its Highway 395 depot.
The programme covers only the listed device types and limits a single visit to seven items, and appliances, batteries, light bulbs and other electronics are not part of it.
Non hazardous municipal solid waste, construction and demolition debris, yard waste, auto tires with a limit of ten per load, and recyclable material at the depot including aluminum, newspaper, glass bottles and jars, milk jugs, scrap metal and electronics such as televisions, computers, laptops, printers, monitors and tablets
Non hazardous material only, with inert material accepted for construction loads and auto tires limited to ten per load. The hauler's curbside guide refuses batteries, paint, propane and butane canisters, helium tanks, flares, needles, ammunition, flammable liquids, appliances and glass in the curbside carts, so those items have to be sorted out before a cart goes out. The depot is a separate route: its own poster lists glass bottles and jars with the recyclables and names air conditioners among the aluminum scrap it takes, so a household with a refrigerant appliance should confirm the drop off with the hauler on 541-567-9350 before loading. No rates are published.
The city prints Monday to Friday 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., Saturday 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Sunday 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the Sanitary Disposal contact block, closed on holidays, while the hauler's own hours item carries no text, so confirm before a trip.
The hauler publishes no transfer station rates and the city fee schedule refers solid waste rates to the hauler without printing them. Call 541-567-9350 to confirm the cost and any load limit before hauling.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Bulk junk removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Hermiston.
How much does bulk junk removal cost in Hermiston?+
A trash bag is $59 as the first item and $10 additional. A filled household box is $59 as the first item. Add your actual items and quantities to see the combined price before booking. Loading, transportation and disposal are included; any applicable sales tax is shown before payment.
Can you pick up bags of junk today?+
Book by 2pm in the pickup address’s local time for same-day pickup. Available dates appear at checkout. Have the booked bags and boxes outside and accessible according to your confirmation. You receive pickup updates and completion photos; the booking is for a day rather than an exact arrival time.
Do I count every object inside a bag or box?+
No. Count the filled bags or boxes using the matching choice. Books and media go in Filled household box; clothes, bedding and shoes go in Bag of clothes & bedding; packed toys have a Box of toys choice. Empty cardboard is separate, with individual empty boxes and bundles of 10 flattened boxes. Heavy, oversized or unusual contents need a photo review before booking.
Can you pick up a small loose pile of household junk?+
Yes. Estimate how many trash bags the small household pile would fill, and bag or box as much as possible. Select furniture and other larger items separately. There is no extra charge just because the pile is loose. Send a photo first if the count or contents are unclear. A household Dumpster Bag choice does not accept construction debris.
Can I book bags, boxes and furniture together?+
Yes. Select the bags and boxes, then add each larger item using its own catalog choice. The booking shows one combined price for the selected items. Move everything to an accessible outdoor spot before pickup; indoor carrying and sorting are not included. Keep anything you want to retain apart from the booked items and identify what goes in your photos and notes.
How do I get a mattress picked up in Hermiston?+
Request a bulky item pickup from Sanitary Disposal at 541-567-8842 or through the request form on the hauler site. The hauler describes the service as collecting furniture, home appliances and similar material, and it publishes no rate, so confirm the price and the item when you book.Official guidance
Can a mattress ride with the weekly garbage?+
No. The weekly service is the garbage cart that the city contracts from Sanitary Disposal, and the carts are the only thing collected automatically. A mattress waits for a requested bulky pickup, and the city fee schedule applies overage charges when a cart lid does not close or material is left outside the cart.Official guidance
Will the city collect a couch from the curb?+
Not automatically. Hermiston contracts curbside collection to Sanitary Disposal, and the bulky service that handles furniture, home appliances and similar items is requested rather than scheduled. Call 541-567-8842 to book it and confirm the price.Official guidance
Can furniture be taken somewhere instead?+
The Sanitary Disposal transfer station at 81144 N Hwy 395 accepts municipal solid waste, construction and demolition debris, yard waste and auto tires with a limit of ten per load, so a self haul is possible, but the station prints no rates and the page describes it as non hazardous material only.Official guidance
How do appliances leave a Hermiston home?+
Through a bulky item pickup requested from Sanitary Disposal at 541-567-8842, or by hauling the unit to the transfer station on Highway 395, which takes municipal solid waste. Neither route publishes a price, and no page states how a refrigerator's refrigerant has to be handled, so confirm both when you call.Official guidance
Does the free electronics program take appliances?+
No. Oregon E-Cycles covers computers, laptops, tablets, monitors, televisions and printers, seven items or fewer at a time, plus keyboards and mice, and the state page states that other types of electronics are not included. A washer, dryer, stove or refrigerator is handled through the hauler instead.Official guidance
Where do televisions and computers go in Hermiston?+
To a participating Oregon E-Cycles site, where televisions, computers, laptops, tablets, monitors and printers are free, seven items or fewer at a time, and keyboards and mice are free as well. The state page points readers to the site locator tool or the toll free number for the nearest collection site.Official guidance
Can electronics go in the recycling cart?+
No. The city states that batteries, electronics, hazardous items and glass cannot go in the recycling cart, and the hauler's own guide lists electronics, batteries, paint, needles and flammable liquids among the material its programs refuse. Glass goes to a depot instead.Official guidance
Where does construction debris go in Hermiston?+
To the Sanitary Disposal transfer station at 81144 N Hwy 395, which lists construction and demolition debris as one of the materials it accepts along with yard waste, municipal solid waste and auto tires limited to ten per load. It publishes no price, so confirm the cost when you call 541-567-9350.Official guidance
Will the curbside crew take building material?+
No. The weekly curbside service is the garbage cart that the city contracts from Sanitary Disposal, and the curbside recycling cart takes only paper, cardboard, plastic containers, metal cans, cartons and certain plastics. Construction material goes to the transfer station instead.Official guidance
Will Sanitary Disposal take a treadmill?+
Call 541-567-8842 and ask. The hauler describes its bulky service as collecting furniture, home appliances and similar material and publishes no item list or rate, and the transfer station lists construction debris, tires, yard waste and municipal solid waste, so an exercise machine is confirmed rather than assumed.Official guidance
How does bulky material leave a Hermiston property?+
By request. Sanitary Disposal handles bulky material such as furniture and home appliances through a pickup request, and the transfer station on Highway 395 takes self hauls of municipal solid waste, construction debris, yard waste and tires limited to ten per load. Neither publishes a rate.Official guidance
What happens if my cart is overfull?+
The city fee schedule lists overages and extras that happen when a cart lid does not close, garbage is left outside the cart or the cart is too heavy, along with a non payment service charge and a same day return service charge when a cart was not set out. The rates themselves are referred to the hauler's fee page.Official guidance
Who do Hermiston residents call about garbage service?+
Residents inside the city limits contact City Hall at 180 NE 2nd Street on 541-567-5521 to start or change garbage service, ask billing questions or obtain a free yard trimming permit, while residents outside the city limits contact Sanitary Disposal directly at 541-567-8842. The city contracts every solid waste service to Sanitary Disposal.Official guidance
What does curbside recycling cost in Hermiston?+
The city publishes a rate of $8 per month for a 95 gallon recycling cart collected every other week, and it suggests residents review their garbage cart size at the same time, since a smaller garbage cart may offset the new service. Curbside recycling became a state requirement and began on July 6, 2026.Official guidance
Where are the free recycling depots?+
Hermiston has two free depots in addition to curbside collection, one at the Sanitary Disposal site on Highway 395 and one near Theater Sports Park. The city web page and the city fee schedule print different street addresses for the second depot, so confirm the location with the city or the hauler before a special trip.Official guidance
How does a household get rid of paint and chemicals?+
Household hazardous waste is not collected at the curb and has no local drop-off, so it waits for a collection event scheduled with state approval. Oregon DEQ names the regional program contact for Umatilla County at 541-633-2029, and that is the number to call for the next event date and its location.Official guidance
