City collection Clackamas County states that furniture and other large items can be picked up by the garbage and recycling company even for a household that is not a regular customer, so a couch is arranged directly with the franchised company that serves the address. The county publishes no per item bulky price and tells residents to call the franchised company for a quote, so the pickup charge is confirmed with the company that serves your address before the pickup is arranged.
City collection A mattress and box spring are treated like any other large item here, so the pickup is arranged with the franchised garbage and recycling company that serves the address rather than through a city program. The county leaves bulky item pricing to the franchised companies and publishes no per item rate, so confirm the quote with the company that serves your address before the set goes out.
City collection Large appliances are named among the items the county says a franchised collection company can pick up, even for a household that is not a regular customer, so an appliance follows the quoted pickup route. No appliance or bulky item rate is published on the county pages, so the pickup price is confirmed with the franchised company that serves your address.
City collection There is no city bulk day in Johnson City. Large items are picked up by the franchised garbage and recycling company on a quoted arrangement, and anything a household hauls itself goes to a county transfer station or depot. The county publishes no bulky item price list and leaves the quote to the franchised company that serves the address, while a county transfer station or depot sets its own disposal charge.
The highest first-item price applies once. Every remaining item uses its additional-item price. Loading, transportation and disposal are included. Applicable sales tax is shown before payment.

The local disposal guide
Will the city take it?
Johnson City is a small incorporated city inside Clackamas County and publishes no collection rules of its own, so service comes from one of the county's franchised garbage and recycling companies. The county sets the fees and service standards for unincorporated areas and for Happy Valley and Barlow rather than for Johnson City, so the serving company and City Hall confirm the terms for an address here. Large appliances, furniture and other oversized items can be picked up by the franchised company for a quoted price even if the household is not a regular customer, and anything a household hauls itself goes to a county transfer station or depot. Household chemicals stay out of every one of those routes and go to Metro's hazardous waste facility in Oregon City.
Clackamas County states that furniture and other large items can be picked up by the garbage and recycling company even for a household that is not a regular customer, so a couch is arranged directly with the franchised company that serves the address.
City cost & eligibility
The county publishes no per item bulky price and tells residents to call the franchised company for a quote, so the pickup charge is confirmed with the company that serves your address before the pickup is arranged.
When & how
Call your garbage and recycling company for a quote and a pickup time. Johnson City households can confirm which company serves the address through the county's company lookup, and the county line for questions is not published for this city, so the company and City Hall at 503-655-9710 are the contacts.
Get it ready
Keep the piece whole enough for one person to handle, keep it dry, and keep construction material, hazardous waste and yard debris out of the load because each has its own route.
A mattress and box spring are treated like any other large item here, so the pickup is arranged with the franchised garbage and recycling company that serves the address rather than through a city program.
City cost & eligibility
The county leaves bulky item pricing to the franchised companies and publishes no per item rate, so confirm the quote with the company that serves your address before the set goes out.
When & how
Call the collection company for a quote and a pickup day, then put the set out where the company asks for it on that day.
Get it ready
Send the mattress and box spring out together as one set, keep both pieces dry, and keep them clear of the garbage and recycling carts on the collection day.
Large appliances are named among the items the county says a franchised collection company can pick up, even for a household that is not a regular customer, so an appliance follows the quoted pickup route.
City cost & eligibility
No appliance or bulky item rate is published on the county pages, so the pickup price is confirmed with the franchised company that serves your address.
When & how
Call the collection company for a quote and a pickup time, and keep the unit out of the garbage cart, because the county routes large appliances through the company rather than the cart.
Get it ready
Empty and defrost the unit and secure the doors the way the company asks. Keep a coolant containing appliance intact until it is collected so the refrigerant is handled by whoever takes the unit.
The county and city pages do not publish a television or electronics collection or drop-off route, so a screen has to be confirmed with the collection company or a county depot before it leaves the house.
City cost & eligibility
No television rule or rate is published on the county pages, so confirm with the franchised collection company, or with a county transfer station or depot, what it charges for a screen and whether it accepts one.
When & how
Call the franchised collection company or a county transfer station or depot, and confirm hours and accepted materials before making the trip, because the county asks residents to call locations ahead.
Get it ready
Wipe personal data from anything that powers on, remove cables and stands, keep screens out of the garbage cart until a route is confirmed, and treat any battery as hazardous rather than putting it in a cart.
No computer or small electronics route is published on the city or county pages, so the collection company or a county depot has to confirm whether it will take the device.
City cost & eligibility
The county publishes no electronics rate and asks residents to call disposal locations ahead, so the route and the price are confirmed with the collection company or the receiving depot.
When & how
Call the collection company that serves your address or a county transfer station or depot, confirm the device and the hours, then deliver it only once the site confirms it accepts it.
Get it ready
Wipe personal data from anything that powers on, remove and separate batteries because they are hazardous, and keep electronics out of the garbage cart until a route is confirmed.
Construction, demolition and remodeling debris carries a state requirement before disposal: the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality requires asbestos testing and documentation, and transfer stations refuse suspect asbestos containing material without it.
City cost & eligibility
No construction debris rate is published on the county pages, and the receiving site sets its own charge, so confirm the price and the asbestos documentation requirement with the transfer station or depot before the load moves.
When & how
Arrange the receiving site or a company drop box before the work starts, and have the asbestos testing documentation ready, because a transfer station will not accept suspect material without it.
Get it ready
Keep construction and demolition material out of the garbage cart and out of any bulky load, and separate material that can be salvaged or reused, which the county notes reduces waste. Suspect asbestos containing material needs testing and documentation before disposal.
Exercise equipment is not named on the county pages, so the machine has to be described to the collection company and quoted like any other large item.
City cost & eligibility
The county publishes no per item bulky rate, so the company that serves the address quotes the pickup from the size and weight of the machine.
When & how
Call the franchised collection company with the size and weight of the machine, then book the pickup once it confirms the haul and the price.
Get it ready
Break the machine down as far as it will go, keep loose weights with the frame so one person can handle it, and remove any battery or electronic console before it goes out.
There is no city bulk day in Johnson City. Large items are picked up by the franchised garbage and recycling company on a quoted arrangement, and anything a household hauls itself goes to a county transfer station or depot.
City cost & eligibility
The county publishes no bulky item price list and leaves the quote to the franchised company that serves the address, while a county transfer station or depot sets its own disposal charge.
When & how
Call the collection company that serves your address for a quote and a pickup time, or take the load to a county transfer station or depot after confirming its hours and accepted materials.
Get it ready
Sort the load before you call so the quote matches what goes out, keep hazardous waste, batteries and yard debris separate, and remember that construction and demolition material needs asbestos documentation before a transfer station will take it.
Tires are not named on the city or county pages, so the receiving site has to confirm whether it takes a tire along with the load, and the collection company has to quote any curbside pickup.
City cost & eligibility
No tire route or rate is published, so confirm the price and the acceptance with the collection company or the transfer station or depot before the tires move.
When & how
Call the franchised collection company for a quote, or call a county transfer station or depot to confirm it accepts tires and what it charges.
Get it ready
Keep tires out of the garbage cart, keep them separate from other material so the load can be priced, and confirm the tire count and rim condition when you call.
Chemicals never go in a cart or a bulky load. Clackamas County points households to Metro's household hazardous waste facility in Oregon City for up to 35 gallons of hazardous products.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Free for households at Metro's household hazardous waste facilities, with a daily limit of 35 gallons of waste measured by container size. Businesses must apply for a permit, make an appointment and pay a fee.
When & how
Metro South at 2001 Washington St in Oregon City takes household hazardous waste from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. daily, and all facilities are closed on Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's days. Metro's expert line is 503-234-3000.
Get it ready
Keep products in their original containers, place them upright in a single layer in sturdy boxes with lids secured, put broken or leaking containers in zip top bags, and wrap fluorescent tubes in a bag or towel instead of taping them. Containers, including fuel cans, are not returned, and batteries and sharps stay out of the garbage cart.
Johnson City has no collection program of its own, so the pickup for a large item is booked with the franchised garbage and recycling company that serves the address. Clackamas County states that the company can collect large appliances, furniture and other items even if the household is not a regular customer, and that residents should call for a quote and a pickup time. The county publishes the companies and their phone numbers for anyone unsure who serves the street.
Clackamas County publishes transfer stations and depots for garbage, recycling, household hazardous waste and yard debris, and asks residents to call the locations ahead to confirm hours and accepted materials. Construction, demolition and remodeling debris carries a state asbestos rule: suspect material needs testing and documentation before a transfer station will accept it, and salvaging or reusing what you can reduces the load.
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.
