Know when they’ve been collected.
Get a text when your hauler is on the way and photos when the pickup is done. With everything outside and accessible, you don’t need to stay home.
You don’t need to guess how much space your furniture fills in a truck. Match each piece to the catalog, then add its quantity. Your total updates as you go.
Tables and chairs
Choose the table, then add each chair separately. Coffee tables, side tables and dining tables have their own options. A large or substantially heavy table has a different choice.
Dressers and mirrors
Match the dresser’s overall size. Add a separate dresser mirror as its own item if it is leaving too. Empty drawers and keep the belongings you want before moving the dresser outside.
Desks and bookshelves
Choose by construction, not height alone. A basic desk is different from a heavy desk with a substantial body. A tall, lightweight bookcase can still be a standard bookshelf. Empty it first.

Brush and bulky material leaves the property on a city collection that comes through once in each odd month and can also be requested for a Wednesday or Friday. The standard load has to fit inside eight feet by four feet by three feet, and a scheduled pickup may be billed by the hour for whichever truck handles it.
City cost & eligibility
The regular brush and bulky run is part of the residential service the household already pays for monthly, and the city fee schedule publishes hourly loading rates for a pickup that has to be scheduled rather than the neighborhood run, so call Solid Waste Services on 325-676-6053 and confirm whether your material goes out on the odd month Monday visit or needs a scheduled collection and an hourly charge.
When & how
The regular visit comes once per residence in January, March, May, July, September and November on the neighborhood's Monday, with nothing set out more than 48 hours ahead, and a collection can be scheduled for a Wednesday or Friday on 325-676-6053. Alley customers get an average of three visits a year, with nothing out more than 10 days ahead.
Get it ready
Keep the pile within the eight foot by four foot by three foot standard, cut tree limbs to four foot lengths, break boxes down and stack them, cut carpet into manageable pieces, and keep everything within five feet of the street, or behind the property line and five feet clear of a gas meter or container for alley service. A large appliance goes at the end of the driveway near the curb, and hired contractors cannot use the residential collection for their waste.
Furniture leaves on the brush and bulky collection or, more simply, at the Citizens Convenience Station on Sandy Street, which is a self service drop off for residents and names couches, furniture and bulky items in its accepted list.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. The Citizens Convenience Station is free for Abilene residents who bring a driver's licence and a current City of Abilene water bill, is limited to about one pickup bed sized load a visit, and does not accept commercial, multi-family or government loads; the same piece can also go out on the residential brush and bulky collection, which is covered by the monthly collection charge.
When & how
Drive the furniture to 2149 Sandy Street from Monday to Friday between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. or on Saturday between 8 a.m. and 3 p.m., or put it out for the neighborhood's odd month brush and bulky visit within the size the city allows.
Get it ready
Empty the drawers and remove anything you are not sending, unload the piece yourself into the correct container at the station, and keep it out of the garbage cart and the alley barrel, where bulky items such as furniture are refused.
Collection runs twice weekly on either Monday and Thursday or Tuesday and Friday, containers go out by 6 a.m. with the handle facing the house, on the curb rather than in the street and no more than five feet back on the property, with five feet of clearance from cars and mailboxes. Trash goes in the container bagged, tree limbs never go in the container, and the containers themselves are city property that stays with the address.
Brush and bulky collection reaches each residence once in the odd months on the neighborhood Monday, and alley customers see the crews about three times a year, so nothing should go out more than 48 hours ahead for curb service or 10 days ahead for alley service. The standard load fits inside eight feet by four feet by three feet, tree limbs are cut to four foot lengths, boxes are broken down, carpet is cut into manageable pieces, and a large appliance goes at the end of the driveway near the curb with a scheduled pickup.
The Citizens Convenience Station and the Abilene Brush Center both serve Abilene residents only, and both ask for a driver's licence and a current City of Abilene water bill at the gate. The convenience station takes about one pickup bed sized load a visit and the household unloads its own material, while construction waste, tires, commercial loads and loads hauled from multi-family or government property are refused there.
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 with furniture, bedding, an appliance, a machine, tree limbs or another item too large for the cart.
Cost & conditions
From $48 per hour for the rear loader when a scheduled brush and bulky pickup is billed by the truck that handles it, with the knuckle boom truck at $78 an hour on the same fee schedule. Scheduled collections run on Wednesdays and Fridays and the city says hourly rates may apply based on the truck required, while the regular brush and bulky visit comes once per residence in each odd month on the neighborhood Monday inside the monthly residential service the household already pays.
Arrange it
Put the material out for the odd month neighborhood visit, or call Solid Waste Services on 325-676-6053 to schedule a Wednesday or Friday collection and to ask which truck the load needs.
The standard pile has to fit inside eight feet by four feet by three feet, tree limbs are cut to four foot lengths, hired contractors cannot use the residential collection for their waste, and nothing goes out more than 48 hours ahead of the curb visit or 10 days ahead of an alley visit.
