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.

Reviewed · Sources below

Monthly bulk and brush week

Accepted with preparation

One combined bulk and brush collection runs each month in the designated week, with eight cubic yards allowed per month. The size scale in the guideline is one cubic yard for a stove and two cubic yards for a standard truck bed.

City cost & eligibility
No charge. The monthly bulk and brush set-out is part of the city's contracted residential collection and neither the city nor the contractor publishes a fee for it on the retained pages. A load beyond the monthly amount or outside the accepted list is quoted separately by Frontier.
When & how
Once a month, starting on the Monday of the designated bulk collection week, with everything at the curb by 7 a.m. that Monday.
Get it ready
Keep every item light enough for one person to load, put smaller pieces in a container or box, and bundle things such as newspapers, old rugs, small carpet sections and small limbs. Yard waste is separate: bag leaves and grass and put them in the cart on the scheduled trash day rather than in the bulk pile.

Couches, chairs and household furniture

Accepted with preparation

Furniture is named first on the acceptable list for the monthly bulk collection, with tables, sofas, chairs and lawn furniture given as the examples. Smaller pieces such as rugs and sections of carpet are bundled rather than loose.

City cost & eligibility
No charge. Furniture is collected inside the monthly bulk allowance as part of the contracted residential service, and no per-item fee is published on the retained pages.
When & how
Out with the monthly bulk and brush set-out, at the curb by 7 a.m. on the Monday of the designated week.
Get it ready
Keep each piece light enough for one person to load, bundle rugs or small carpet sections rather than leaving them loose, and put small items in a container or box. Nothing that came from a remodeling project goes in the same pile.
Bulky Waste and Bundled Item Collection Guidelines for Balch SpringsBalch Springs collection services, trash, recycle and bulk guidelines

Mattresses and box springs

Special rules apply

A mattress is not named on the acceptable list or the refused list in the Balch Springs guidelines, so it is an unlisted item rather than a settled one. The furniture line covers tables, sofas, chairs and lawn furniture, and the refused list does not mention bedding either.

City cost & eligibility
No mattress fee is published, and no retained list names a mattress, so confirm acceptance and the charge with Frontier Waste Solutions at (469) 444-1555 before the item goes to the curb.
When & how
Confirm the item with Frontier before the monthly bulk set-out, then put it out by 7 a.m. on the Monday of the designated week if it is accepted.
Get it ready
Call Frontier at (469) 444-1555, describe the mattress or box spring, and keep it out of the cart and off the bulk pile until the answer comes back. Keep it dry if it does go out, and keep it light enough for one person to handle under the programme's general rule.

Washers, dryers, stoves and water heaters

Accepted with preparation

Appliances are the second group on the acceptable list, with washing machines, dryers, stoves and water heaters given as the examples. A unit that holds refrigerant is handled separately because it needs a freon tag.

City cost & eligibility
No charge. The named appliance group is collected inside the monthly bulk allowance as part of the contracted residential service, and no per-item fee is published on the retained pages.
When & how
Out with the monthly bulk and brush set-out, at the curb by 7 a.m. on the Monday of the designated week.
Get it ready
Empty the unit and keep it light enough for one person to load, and keep a hot water heater drained before it goes out. A refrigerator, freezer or air conditioner needs proof of freon removal by a certified technician attached to the item before it can be collected.
Bulky Waste and Bundled Item Collection Guidelines for Balch SpringsBalch Springs collection services, trash, recycle and bulk guidelines

Refrigerators, freezers and air conditioners

Special rules apply

A refrigerator, freezer or air conditioner is collected only when the item is tagged with proof of freon removal by a certified technician. The same group appears on the refused list when the refrigerant is still in the unit.

City cost & eligibility
The collection itself carries no published fee, but the freon removal is done by a technician the resident arranges and pays, which the guidelines do not price, so confirm the removal cost and the collection with Frontier at (469) 444-1555.
When & how
Out with the monthly bulk set-out only after the freon tag is attached, at the curb by 7 a.m. on the Monday of the designated week.
Get it ready
Arrange the freon removal with a certified technician, attach the proof tag to the unit, empty it and keep it light enough for one person to load. An untagged unit will not be collected, so it should stay off the curb until the tag is on it.

Televisions and computer equipment

Special rules apply

Televisions are named in the miscellaneous group on the acceptable list, alongside large toys, basketball goals, sports equipment, bikes and children's toys. Computers, printers and other devices are not named on either the accepted or the refused list.

City cost & eligibility
A television rides the monthly bulk allowance with no published per-item fee, but no retained list covers computers, printers, monitors or other devices, so confirm acceptance and any charge with Frontier Waste Solutions at (469) 444-1555.
When & how
A television goes out with the monthly bulk and brush set-out at the curb by 7 a.m. on the Monday of the designated week; any other device is confirmed with Frontier first.
Get it ready
Keep electronics out of the trash cart, because the cart rules refuse hazardous and toxic material, and keep them out of the recycling cart. Call Frontier at (469) 444-1555 about a computer, printer or monitor before it goes out, and erase personal data before handover.

Remodeling and construction material

Not on the regular city route

Construction material from a remodeling project is refused in the bulk pile, and the guideline sends the resident to Frontier for a roll-off container quote or a special pickup instead. Dirt, bricks, rock, concrete, sand and shingles are refused alongside it.

City cost & eligibility
The guidelines direct a project load to a Frontier estimate for a grapple truck collection or a delivered construction dumpster, and that price is quoted rather than published, so confirm it with Frontier at (469) 444-1555.
When & how
Not on the monthly bulk set-out at all; arrange a quoted container or special pickup instead.
Get it ready
Keep all remodeling debris out of the curbside pile, separate anything reusable from the debris, and expect organic yard material to follow the brush rules: stumps, branches, limbs and logs larger than six inches in diameter or heavier than 35 pounds have to be split down before they can be collected.

Sports and exercise equipment

Accepted with preparation

Sports equipment is named in the miscellaneous group on the acceptable list for the monthly bulk collection, in the same line as televisions, large toys, basketball goals, bikes and children's toys. A machine still has to follow the general one-person loading rule.

City cost & eligibility
No charge. Sports equipment is collected inside the monthly bulk allowance as part of the contracted residential service, and no per-item fee is published on the retained pages.
When & how
Out with the monthly bulk and brush set-out, at the curb by 7 a.m. on the Monday of the designated week.
Get it ready
Break the machine down as far as the maker allows so one person can load it, remove any loose weights, console or battery pack, and keep the parts together in the pile. If the frame will not come down to a manageable weight, call Frontier before the set-out.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

One bulk week a month, at the curb by Monday morning

Eight cubic yards of bulky waste and brush together are collected once a month in the designated bulk collection week, starting on the Monday. Everything has to be at the curb by 7 a.m. that Monday, and the weekly cart collection is separate from this set-out.

Bulky Waste and Bundled Item Collection Guidelines for Balch Springs

Every item has to be loadable by one person

Each bulky item has to be light enough for one person to load into the collection vehicle. Small pieces go in a container or box, and items such as newspapers, rugs, small carpet sections and small limbs are bundled before they go out.

City of Balch Springs residential collection, operated by Frontier Waste Solutions

Use the monthly bulk and brush week

A household with a sofa, a washer, a television, sports equipment or another named item that will not fit in the cart.

Cost & conditions
No charge. The monthly set-out is part of the city's contracted residential collection and no fee is published for it on the retained pages, while a load beyond the monthly amount or outside the accepted list is quoted separately.
Arrange it
Set the accepted items at the curb by 7 a.m. on the Monday of the designated bulk collection week and keep them light enough for one person to load.

Eight cubic yards a month for bulky waste and brush together, one named group of accepted items, and no construction material, concrete, dirt, shingles, batteries, tires, pressurised tanks, oils, paint, chemicals or untagged refrigerant units.

Balch Springs bulk and brush guidelines

With a new purchase

Ask the contractor for a container or a special pickup

A household with a remodeling load, a move-out cleanout or more bulky material than the monthly allowance covers.

Cost & conditions
The guidelines direct a large load to a Frontier estimate for a grapple truck collection or a delivered construction dumpster, and that price is quoted rather than published, so ask Frontier Waste Solutions at (469) 444-1555 for the figure before the work starts.
Arrange it
Call Frontier, describe the load and the access, and arrange the grapple truck visit or the dumpster delivery on the company's schedule.

A quoted private service rather than a city set-out, placement depends on the site and the container size, and hazardous material still has to go to a registered route rather than into a container.

Frontier Waste Solutions

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Self-hauling in Balch Springs is mostly a trip to the curb during the monthly bulk week, because the city route already takes furniture, appliances, televisions, sports equipment and bulk brush as long as the whole load fits eight cubic yards and each item can be lifted by one person. What the city route refuses goes elsewhere: a remodeling load goes to Frontier for a quoted roll-off container or grapple truck collection, and household chemicals, paint and oils go to the Dallas County Home Chemical Collection Center at 11234 Plano Road in Dallas, where Balch Springs residents are outside the free list and pay a minimum waste management fee with proof of address. Batteries, tires, pressurised tanks and untagged refrigerant units are refused on the city side, and no retained page names a mattress, a computer or a printer, so those items are confirmed with Frontier before anything goes out.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

Bulk junk removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Balch Springs.

How much does bulk junk removal cost in Balch Springs?

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.

How much bulky waste can I put out in Balch Springs?

Eight cubic yards of bulky waste and brush together, once a month, in the designated bulk collection week. Everything goes to the curb by 7 a.m. on the Monday of that week, each item has to be light enough for one person to load, and smaller pieces belong in a container or box. The guideline sizes one cubic yard as a stove and two cubic yards as a standard truck bed.Official guidance

Will Balch Springs take a couch at the curb?

Sofas are on the acceptable list for the monthly bulk and brush collection, so they go out with that set-out, at the curb by 7 a.m. on the Monday of the designated week, as long as the piece is light enough for one person to load. Rugs and small sections of carpet should be bundled rather than left loose.Official guidance

Is a mattress accepted in the Balch Springs bulk week?

It is not named on the accepted list, which covers furniture such as tables, sofas, chairs and lawn furniture along with appliances and a miscellaneous group, and it is not on the refused list either. That makes it an unlisted item, so call Frontier at (469) 444-1555 and confirm it before the Monday morning set-out.Official guidance

Will Balch Springs take a washer or a stove?

Yes. Washing machines, dryers, stoves and water heaters are named on the acceptable list for the monthly bulk and brush collection, so they go out at the curb by 7 a.m. on the Monday of the designated week and each unit has to be light enough for one person to load. A refrigerator, freezer or air conditioner is different and needs a freon removal tag from a certified technician.Official guidance

What does Balch Springs need before collecting a refrigerator?

Proof of freon removal by a certified technician, tagged on the item. Without that tag the refrigerator, freezer or air conditioner is on the refused list and will not be collected, so have the technician remove the refrigerant and attach the tag before the monthly bulk set-out goes to the curb.Official guidance

Is a television accepted in the Balch Springs bulk week?

Yes. Televisions are named in the miscellaneous group on the acceptable list for the monthly bulk and brush collection, so a set goes out at the curb by 7 a.m. on the Monday of the designated week and has to be light enough for one person to load. Computers, printers and monitors are not named, so confirm those with Frontier first.Official guidance

Where does remodeling debris go in Balch Springs?

Not in the monthly bulk pile, because construction material from remodeling projects is on the refused list. The guideline sends the resident to Frontier for a quote on a roll-off container or a special pickup, and dirt, bricks, rock, concrete, sand and shingles are refused along with the remodeling material.Official guidance

Can I put a treadmill out in Balch Springs?

Sports equipment is named on the acceptable list for the monthly bulk and brush collection, so a treadmill or a home gym goes out with that set-out at the curb by 7 a.m. on the Monday of the designated week. Every item has to be light enough for one person to load, so break the machine down and keep the parts together.Official guidance

Who collects trash in Balch Springs?

The city contracts Frontier Waste Solutions for residential collection, which runs trash twice a week and recycling once a week from contractor supplied carts. Billing questions go to the City of Balch Springs utility billing office at (972) 286-4477 and service questions to Frontier at (469) 444-1555, and extra carts are ordered through the city office.Official guidance

What will Balch Springs not collect?

Batteries, tires, pressurised tanks such as propane, helium, oxygen and acetylene, oils, gas and other fuel, paint, chemicals, solvents and hazardous material are refused, along with construction material from remodeling projects, dirt, bricks, rock, concrete, sand and shingles. A refrigerator, freezer or air conditioner is accepted only with a tag proving a certified technician removed the freon.Official guidance

How is yard waste set out in Balch Springs?

Leaves and grass go in bags inside the cart on the scheduled trash day rather than in the bulk pile, while brush follows the bulk rules: eight cubic yards of bulky waste and brush together once a month, at the curb by 7 a.m. on the Monday of the designated week, and stumps, branches, limbs and logs have to be split down to no more than six inches in diameter.Official guidance
