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 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.

Columbia County administers franchise agreements for garbage and recycling collection and names two providers, Hudson Garbage doing business as Waste Connections and WM.
A large load can be taken to the Columbia County Transfer Station in St. Helens, which charges a self-haul rate by weight with a senior discount.
Mattresses and box springs are recycled free at four Mattress Recycling Council events a year at the transfer station, limited to five units per resident.
The county does not name furniture, and the mattress events expressly refuse sofas, pullout couches and furniture, so the piece has to be confirmed with the provider or the transfer station.
Refrigerant appliances are priced at the transfer station, while other appliances are not separately named, so the route has to be confirmed.
Electronics such as televisions, monitors, computers and printers are free at select drop-off locations, and Oregon law bans e-waste from the trash.
Construction material is not a separate category, so it moves as a self-haul load at the transfer station rates or through a franchised drop box, with the county's asbestos guidance applying.
Exercise equipment is not named anywhere in the county material, so the machine has to be confirmed with the provider or the transfer station.
Free recycling drop-offs sit in St. Helens, Clatskanie, Rainier and Vernonia, and the transfer station's recycling table prices the less common materials.
The transfer station prices tires by vehicle class and by whether the tire is still on the rim.
Yard debris is charged on its own rate at the transfer station, separate from garbage.
The county runs household hazardous waste collection events, and several of the materials that carry a fee at the transfer station are free during them.
The handoff matters
Columbia County administers the franchise agreements for garbage and recycling collection and names two providers, Hudson Garbage doing business as Waste Connections and WM. Use the county's residential garbage and recycling map to identify the provider for the address, then call that company to start service, ask about the collection day or report a problem, and use the drop box map if a project needs a container larger than 10 yards.
Franchised collection providers and the franchise area mapsThe Columbia County Transfer Station at 1601 Railroad Ave. in St. Helens opens Monday through Saturday 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and is closed Sundays, New Year's Day, Thanksgiving and Christmas Day, and it may close at or after 1 p.m. on Memorial Day, the 4th of July, Labor Day, Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve. Self-haul waste is charged by weight with a minimum up to 320 pounds and a senior rate, yard debris has its own lower rate, an unsecured load is charged extra, and the recycling table prices antifreeze, lead acid batteries, fluorescent tubes, refrigerant appliances, tires and oil filters while paint, sharps and used motor oil are free for residents within the published limits.
Transfer station hours, solid waste rates and recycling ratesThe Mattress Recycling Council runs free mattress recycling at the Columbia County Transfer Station on March 14, June 13, September 12 and November 14 from 8 a.m. to noon. Mattresses including foam, and box springs that are stationary or adjustable, are accepted in any size or condition up to five units per county resident, and toppers, pads, air mattresses, crib mattresses, waterbeds, futons, sofas, pullout couches and furniture are refused, so those pieces need a different route.
