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.

Other bulky items and weekly trash

Accepted with preparation

The city runs weekly residential trash collection and takes bulky material on the same service, provided everything is separated into the published categories first. Household garbage itself has to go in the city roll cart, and extra capacity comes from buying a second cart.

City cost & eligibility
No charge. City of North Charleston residential addresses served by the weekly sanitation collection, within the published category limits. The published charge for more capacity is the one time fee for an additional garbage roll cart, which has its own record.
When & how
Roll carts go to the street side before 7 a.m. on the collection day, no more than twelve hours earlier, and come back in within twelve hours of pickup. Bulk piles go out no earlier than 48 hours before the collection.
Get it ready
Separate white goods and metal, furniture and building material, yard debris, leaves and grass, and concrete into their own piles, because a mixed pile is not collected. Bag leaves and grass in paper only, keep yard debris under four feet and six inches in diameter, and keep e-waste, chemicals and pressurised containers out of every pile.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

Separate the piles or they will not be collected

Bulk trash has to be placed at the kerb in separate piles by category: white goods and metal, furniture and building material, yard debris, leaves and grass, and concrete. The city states plainly that mixed piles cannot be collected, and a pile set out earlier than 48 hours before the collection day is not part of the regular service.

Buy an additional garbage roll cart

Cost & conditions
$65 for for one additional garbage roll cart, charged as a one time fee through the city's online order form. City of North Charleston residential addresses receiving the weekly garbage collection.

Arrange it
Order the additional cart through the city's form, and keep it at the street side under the same twelve hour rule as the first cart.

One additional garbage cart is allowed at the published price, and it is for household garbage rather than for recyclables or for bulk material that should be piled at the kerb.

Open the roll cart rules

Taking it somewhere yourself?

North Charleston keeps self haul inside the county rather than at a city yard: the city publishes no drop-off centre of its own, and its Sanitation Division page states that services it no longer handles, including e-waste such as televisions and computers, are provided by Charleston County Environmental Management, with a Dorchester County link for residents in that direction. The city's own programme is the kerbside one, and it works only when the load is sorted into white goods and metal, furniture and building material, yard debris, leaves and grass, and concrete. Mixed piles are refused, contractors and businesses are excluded, building material is capped at 90 gallons and concrete at one cubic foot per pickup, and everything except the roll cart has to be out no earlier than 48 hours before the scheduled collection day.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

Bulk junk removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in North Charleston.

How much does bulk junk removal cost in North Charleston?

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.

Why was my North Charleston bulk pile left behind?

The most common published reason is a mixed pile. The city requires white goods and metal, furniture and building material, yard debris, leaves and grass, and concrete to be placed in separate piles, and it states plainly that mixed piles cannot be collected.Official guidance

Can I get a second garbage cart in North Charleston?

A household may buy one additional garbage roll cart, and a household that routinely generates more garbage than the cart holds is required to buy the use of an additional container. The charge is a one time fee and the city takes orders through its online form.Official guidance

Who collects trash in North Charleston?

The city's Sanitation Division collects garbage and trash from residential addresses inside the city limits on a weekly schedule, and it does not collect from commercial or industrial establishments. Service requests, complaints and help for physically disadvantaged residents go through Public Works on 843-745-1026.Official guidance

Can a business use the North Charleston collection?

No. The city does not pick up garbage from commercial or industrial establishments and requires non residential properties to provide for their own disposal, and the bulk rules also refuse trash generated by contractors, landscapers, businesses or other non residential sources.Official guidance

When is recycling collected in North Charleston?

It depends on which county the address sits in, because the city splits the programme. The Sanitation Division states that recycling is collected the same day as garbage and yard waste, while the recycling page says Charleston County runs the curbside recyclables collection on its own schedule in the parts of the city that lie in Charleston County, and that Dorchester County provides convenience sites such as Oakbrook on Old Fort Drive. Cart material goes out before 7 a.m. and no more than twelve hours early, and yard waste has to be in paper bags.Official guidance
