City collection Furniture goes out with the monthly bulky item pickup on the normal collection day in the third week of the month, inside a footprint of about three cubic yards. Bulky item pickup is part of the contracted service and no per item rate is published, so confirm any charge for a large piece with CARDS on 877-592-2737 or with Utility Billing on 972-924-2432.
City collection A mattress or box spring is a bulky item in Anna, collected by CARDS on the normal collection day during the third week of each month rather than with the weekly cart. Bulky item collection is part of the contracted residential service, and the city points rate and billing questions at Utility Billing on 972-924-2432 without publishing a per item charge, so confirm any charge and any excess volume with CARDS on 877-592-2737 when the pile is planned.
City collection An appliance is a bulky item and goes out on the monthly bulky week inside the three cubic yard footprint, while the city publishes no rule about refrigerant, so a cooling unit is confirmed with CARDS first. No per item rate and no refrigerant rule are published for appliances, so confirm the charge and any freon requirement with CARDS on 877-592-2737 before the unit is set out.
City collection CARDS collects bulky items and yard waste on the normal collection day in the third week of each month, with the pile limited to about three cubic yards, and larger projects use a roll off box. The weekly contracted service covers the carts, and the monthly bulky collection is included in that contracted service with no published per item rate, so confirm any charge for excess volume with CARDS on 877-592-2737 or Utility Billing on 972-924-2432.
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?
Anna contracts its curbside work to CARDS Recycling. Every single family household gets one orange top 96 gallon trash cart and one gray top 64 gallon recycling cart, collected once a week, with everything inside the cart and the lid shut. Bulky items and yard waste are the separate monthly line: CARDS collects them on the normal collection day in the third week of each month, and the pile has to fit within about three cubic yards. A mattress, couch, non cooling appliance or exercise machine goes out on that week. Construction material, treated wood and fences are refused at the curb and go to the regional landfill in Melissa or into a CARDS roll off box, tires go to a retailer or a specialty recycler, and electronics and household chemicals wait for the city household hazardous waste and e recycling event held each spring and fall.
A mattress or box spring is a bulky item in Anna, collected by CARDS on the normal collection day during the third week of each month rather than with the weekly cart.
City cost & eligibility
Bulky item collection is part of the contracted residential service, and the city points rate and billing questions at Utility Billing on 972-924-2432 without publishing a per item charge, so confirm any charge and any excess volume with CARDS on 877-592-2737 when the pile is planned.
When & how
Out on the normal collection day in the third week of the month, which the city publishes on the bulk waste week schedule. The cart day itself stays weekly.
Get it ready
Keep the load inside the published three cubic yard footprint, which the city describes as about three feet by three feet by nine feet, and leave the mattress out of the trash cart because items outside the cart are only collected on the bulky week. Keep the bedding dry and clear of the cart and of any obstacle within three feet.
Furniture goes out with the monthly bulky item pickup on the normal collection day in the third week of the month, inside a footprint of about three cubic yards.
City cost & eligibility
Bulky item pickup is part of the contracted service and no per item rate is published, so confirm any charge for a large piece with CARDS on 877-592-2737 or with Utility Billing on 972-924-2432.
When & how
Out on the normal collection day during the third week of the month, with the week confirmed on the city bulk waste schedule.
Get it ready
Take the piece down as far as it will go and keep cushions with the frame so the pile stays inside the published footprint. Anything that pushes the stack past about three cubic yards needs a roll off box or another route instead of the monthly pickup.
An appliance is a bulky item and goes out on the monthly bulky week inside the three cubic yard footprint, while the city publishes no rule about refrigerant, so a cooling unit is confirmed with CARDS first.
City cost & eligibility
No per item rate and no refrigerant rule are published for appliances, so confirm the charge and any freon requirement with CARDS on 877-592-2737 before the unit is set out.
When & how
Out on the normal collection day during the third week of the month with the bulky load, after the unit has been confirmed with CARDS.
Get it ready
Empty the unit and secure the doors for handling, and keep it inside the bulky footprint. Ask CARDS about a refrigerator, freezer or air conditioner before the collection, because the city pages say nothing about refrigerant and a refused unit left at the curb becomes the household's problem.
Electronics are not part of the weekly cart or the bulky load in the city's published routes. The city holds a household hazardous waste and e recycling event twice a year, in the spring and the fall.
City cost & eligibility
The city publishes the twice yearly event but no charge and no current date, so confirm the next event date and whether any item fee applies with the city on 972-924-3325 before storing a television for it.
When & how
Hold the device for the spring or fall household hazardous waste and e recycling event. Nothing electronic goes in the trash cart or the recycling cart, and the city does not list electronics among the items the bulky truck takes.
Get it ready
Wipe personal data from a computer, tablet or phone before it leaves the house, and store the device dry and out of the weather until the event. Keep it away from the recycling cart, where glass, bulbs and mirrors are refused and electronics are not on the accepted list.
Construction material, treated wood and fences are refused at the curb. The city sends them to the NTMWD Melissa Landfill at the posted gate rate, or to a CARDS roll off dumpster for a project.
City cost & eligibility
The city names the landfill and says the posted gate rate applies without printing the rate, and CARDS roll off pricing is quoted rather than published, so confirm the charge with the landfill on 469-626-4452 or with CARDS on 877-592-2737.
When & how
Haul the material to the 121 Regional Disposal Facility at 3820 Sam Rayburn Highway in Melissa, or reserve a roll off dumpster through CARDS. There is no curbside collection day for construction material.
Get it ready
Keep construction material, treated wood and fencing out of the bulky pile, because the city lists them as refused and routes them to the landfill. Load the vehicle for the landfill gate, and keep household hazardous waste out of the load entirely, since that is a separate event route.
Exercise equipment is not named in the city's bulky item rules, so a treadmill or weight machine is confirmed with CARDS and then rides the monthly bulky week if it fits the footprint.
City cost & eligibility
Bulky pickup is part of the contracted service with no published per item rate, so confirm the machine and any charge with CARDS on 877-592-2737 before it goes to the curb.
When & how
Out on the normal collection day during the third week of the month once CARDS has confirmed the machine fits the bulky service.
Get it ready
Take the machine down as far as it will come apart, drain any water or oil reservoir, and keep the loose weights with the frame so the pile stays inside about three cubic yards. A machine left at the curb after a refusal has to be brought back in by the household.
The city publishes no curbside tire collection. Tires go to most tire retailers or to a specialised recycling facility for a fee.
City cost & eligibility
No municipal tire rate is published, because the city routes tires to retailers and specialised recyclers that set their own charges, so confirm the price when you hand the tires over.
When & how
Take the tires to a participating tire retailer or a specialised recycling facility, and keep them out of the carts and off the bulky pile.
Get it ready
Keep tires away from the weekly cart and the monthly bulky load, and ask the retailer about a limit or a rim charge before loading. The state environmental quality commission is the reference the city names for more information on proper disposal.
CARDS collects bulky items and yard waste on the normal collection day in the third week of each month, with the pile limited to about three cubic yards, and larger projects use a roll off box.
City cost & eligibility
The weekly contracted service covers the carts, and the monthly bulky collection is included in that contracted service with no published per item rate, so confirm any charge for excess volume with CARDS on 877-592-2737 or Utility Billing on 972-924-2432.
When & how
Weekly cart collection on the address's usual day, with the bulky item and yard waste truck on the normal collection day in the third week of the month. A weekday holiday rolls the rest of that week forward one day.
Get it ready
Keep the weekly set-out inside the cart with the lid closed, bagged, with nothing outside the cart and no personal containers, three feet from other carts, mailboxes, vehicles, utility meters, poles and fences. A pile larger than about three cubic yards needs outside storage until a roll off box arrives.
Inside the cart, lid shut, three feet of clearance
Carts go out by 7 a.m. and may be placed out as early as 6 p.m. the day before, three feet from other carts, mailboxes, vehicles, utility meters, poles and fences. Trash has to be bagged and inside the cart with the lid closed, personal containers are not allowed, and anything outside the cart is not collected on a normal week.
Bulky items and yard waste go out in the third week
CARDS runs the bulky item and yard waste truck on the normal collection day during the third week of each month. The load has to fit about three cubic yards, which the city describes as roughly three feet by three feet by nine feet, so a larger pile needs a roll off box or the landfill.
When a holiday falls on a weekday, that collection day and the days after it move forward one day, so Monday runs on Tuesday and so on through Friday to Saturday. A holiday on a weekend causes no delay, and the days before a holiday are not affected.
If the cart, bulky pile or yard waste was out by 7 a.m. and was not collected by the end of the day, call CARDS on 877-592-2737, because each truck carries video service verification. A household that simply forgot to set the cart out can pay a fee for a return trip.
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.
City of Anna with CARDS Recycling under a collection contract
Monthly bulky item collection from CARDS
A single family household with furniture, a mattress, an appliance, exercise equipment or yard waste that will not fit the cart.
Cost & conditions
Bulky item collection is part of the contracted residential service and no per item rate is published, so confirm any charge for excess volume with CARDS on 877-592-2737 or with Utility Billing on 972-924-2432.
Arrange it
Set the pile out on the normal collection day during the third week of the month, keeping it within about three cubic yards and clear of the cart by three feet. Call CARDS with item questions before the collection day.
Construction material, treated wood, fencing, tires and hazardous waste are not part of this route, and a pile larger than the published footprint needs a roll off box or the regional landfill instead.
A household or project with a remodel, a major clean-out or a volume larger than the monthly bulky allowance.
Cost & conditions
CARDS quotes roll off pricing rather than publishing a rate, so confirm the box size, the weight limit and the charge on 877-592-2737 when the box is reserved.
Arrange it
Call CARDS Recycling on 877-592-2737 to reserve a temporary roll off container. The city states that CARDS holds the exclusive right and duty to provide industrial and roll off service within Anna.
Construction material, treated wood and fencing can go in a roll off box, but household hazardous waste and electronics still need their own routes, so keep those out of the load.
City of Anna with CARDS Recycling under a collection contract
Regional landfill in Melissa for construction material
A household with construction debris, treated wood or fencing that the curbside service refuses.
Cost & conditions
The city states that these materials are accepted at the posted gate rate without printing the rate, so confirm the current charge with the landfill on 469-626-4452 before loading.
Arrange it
Drive the load to the 121 Regional Disposal Facility at 3820 Sam Rayburn Highway in Melissa, and pay the gate rate at the facility on arrival.
The city names this route for construction materials, treated wood and fences only, so hazardous material and electronics still wait for the city event and tires still go to a retailer or specialty recycler.
City of Anna with CARDS Recycling under a collection contract
City household hazardous waste and e recycling event
A household with paint, chemicals, batteries, bulbs or a television, computer or other device.
Cost & conditions
The city publishes the twice yearly event but no charge, so confirm the next spring or fall date and any item fee with the city on 972-924-3325 before storing material for it.
Arrange it
Hold the material until the next city event, which runs once in the spring and once in the fall, and keep it dry and out of the carts in the meantime. Contact the city for the announced date and any preparation instructions.
The event is the only published route for these materials in Anna, so the wait can be several months. Nothing hazardous or electronic goes in the weekly cart, the recycling cart or the monthly bulky pile.
Self hauling in Anna depends on the material. Construction material, treated wood and fencing go to the 121 Regional Disposal Facility at 3820 Sam Rayburn Highway in Melissa, where the posted gate rate applies and the landfill answers on 469-626-4452, or into a roll off box that only CARDS may place inside the city. Tires go to most tire retailers or a specialised recycler for a fee, with the state environmental quality commission as the reference, and ammunition is referred to an area gun retailer or shooting centre. Electronics and household chemicals wait for the city's household hazardous waste and e recycling event, held once each spring and once each fall, because no standing municipal drop off is published. Recyclables that do not fit the cart can go to the Custer Road Transfer Station at 9901 Custer Road in Plano, which the city names without an item list, so call 972-727-6341 first. Everything else that fits inside about three cubic yards is a bulky item, collected by CARDS on the normal collection day in the third week of the month.

121 Regional Disposal Facility
3820 Sam Rayburn Highway, Melissa, TX 75454
Construction materials, treated wood and fences from Anna residents, at the posted gate rate

The city names this site as the DIY recycling drop-off for residents, without listing accepted items on the page
The city publishes no item list, no charge and no residency rule for this site, so confirm what it accepts and any fee on 972-727-6341 before loading a vehicle. It is not the city's electronics route, which runs through the twice yearly household hazardous waste and e recycling event.

Prices, timing and the details that matter at your address.
How much does pickup cost?+
Choose your items to see the exact price. A standard sofa is $79 first and $29 additional. The highest first-item price applies once; every remaining item uses its additional-item price. Loading, transportation and disposal are included. Review any applicable sales tax and the final total before payment.
Can I book a pickup for today?+
Book by 2pm at your pickup address for same-day pickup, where available. Choose from the dates shown at checkout. Your booking is for a pickup day, and we text you when your hauler is on the way.

When does a mattress go out in Anna?+
On the normal collection day during the third week of the month, when CARDS runs the bulky item truck. The mattress has to fit within about three cubic yards, and the city points charge questions at Utility Billing on 972-924-2432 and service questions at CARDS on 877-592-2737.Official guidance
Can a mattress go out with the weekly trash cart?+
No. Everything in the weekly collection has to be inside the cart with the lid closed, and items outside the cart are not collected then. A mattress waits for the monthly bulky item week or goes to another route.Official guidance
How does a couch get picked up in Anna?+
It goes out on the monthly bulky item week, on the normal collection day in the third week of the month, and it has to fit within about three cubic yards. Items left outside the cart on other weeks are not collected, so the couch waits for the bulky truck.Official guidance
Is yard waste on the same schedule?+
Yes. Yard waste is included in the CARDS bulky item pickup and shares the third week of the month schedule, so brush and bagged yard material travel with the same truck as furniture.Official guidance
Will CARDS take an appliance from the curb in Anna?+
Appliances go out with the bulky item load on the normal collection day in the third week of the month, within about three cubic yards, and the city lists household hazardous waste, tires and construction debris as separate third party services. Confirm a cooling unit with CARDS on 877-592-2737 first, because no refrigerant rule is published.Official guidance
How much bulky material can go out at once?+
One pile of about three cubic yards, described by the city as roughly three feet by three feet by nine feet, on the normal collection day in the third week of the month. A larger volume needs a roll off dumpster from CARDS or the regional landfill.Official guidance
Where do televisions and computers go in Anna?+
To the city's household hazardous waste and e recycling event, which the city holds twice a year in the spring and the fall. Electronics are not on the recycling cart's accepted list and the city does not list them among the bulky item materials, so the event is the published route.Official guidance
What can I do with electronics between events?+
Store the item until the next event, and keep it out of the carts in the meantime. The city does not publish a standing drop off for electronics, and the recycling page's drop off reference is for DIY recyclables rather than for devices.Official guidance
Who collects trash and recycling in Anna?+
CARDS Recycling, under a contract with the city. Billing questions go to Utility Billing on 972-924-2432 and collection questions go to CARDS on 1-877-592-2737, and each single family household is issued one 96 gallon trash cart and one 64 gallon recycling cart.Official guidance
How do I get an extra cart in Anna?+
Call Utility Billing on 972-924-2432, which sets the monthly charge for an additional cart. Carts stay the property of CARDS and are maintained and replaced at no cost unless the damage came from negligence, odour or abuse, and they stay with the address on a move.Official guidance
When is the bulky item week in Anna?+
The third week of every month, on the normal collection day for the address, with the week confirmed on the city's published bulk waste schedule. Bulky items and yard waste share that truck, and the pile has to fit about three cubic yards.Official guidance
