The clear-out can be finished.
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.
You want to know it is handled.
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 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.

Heavy or bulky trash runs on every service day, and sofas, chairs and tables go out with it, with a limit of one or two large items in a collection.
City cost & eligibility
Residential collection is contracted and no per item bulky price is published, so confirm any cost with the city and the hauler at 281-420-5300 before the piece goes out.
When & how
Put the furniture at the curb no later than 7 a.m. on your collection day, and give the crew room to work around it.
Get it ready
Keep the piece out of the trash cart and out of the recycling bin, and leave furniture that contains tile or ceramic material off the curb because the hauler does not take it.
The hauler collects mattresses and box springs, counting the pair as two items against a two item collection day limit, and queen and king sizes are taken.
City cost & eligibility
No per item mattress charge is published for the contracted residential service, so confirm any cost with the city and the hauler at 281-420-5300.
When & how
Set the mattress and box spring at the curb by 7 a.m. on your collection day, and keep the pair inside the two item limit for that day.
Get it ready
A mattress and its box spring each count as one item, so the pair uses the whole two item allowance for that collection day, and no bag or wrap is required on either piece.
A refrigerator or freezer is collected only after the refrigerant is drained and a bill proving the service is attached, and the city routes appliances to the Green Center as well.
City cost & eligibility
The curbside route publishes no per item appliance fee and the Green Center charges by the vehicle load, so confirm the cost with Public Works and Engineering at 281-420-5300 before the unit leaves the house.
When & how
Have the refrigerant removed first, attach the paperwork to the unit, and put it at the curb by 7 a.m. on a collection day, or take it to the Green Center during its open hours.
Get it ready
Federal rules require the refrigerant to be drained and documented, so the unit travels with a bill that proves the work, and the household hazardous waste event does not accept appliances.
The Baytown Green Center takes televisions, monitors, computers, printers, cameras and audio players from residents, while the household hazardous waste event refuses large electronics and radios.
City cost & eligibility
From $10 per load for a car or pickup truck at the Green Center, which is cash only, with larger trailer loads priced higher and the schedule posted at the site. Baytown residents who show a driver's licence and a City of Baytown water bill in the same name, with no commercial loads.
When & how
Take the device to the Green Center at 1601 W Main on Tuesday through Friday from 12 p.m. to 7 p.m. or Saturday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Get it ready
Bring the licence and the water bill that match, keep the load out of commercial hauling, and leave the device out of the trash cart and the recycling bin.
Curbside crews refuse construction debris by name, including sheetrock, insulation, roofing, shingles, drywall, concrete, brick, tile and dirt, along with any waste a contractor generates.
City cost & eligibility
Construction debris and waste generated by a private contractor are excluded from normal collection and no construction rate is published, so a project load moves through a private hauler or a roll off container rather than the curbside programme.
When & how
Arrange the haul before the work starts and keep the material off the curb, because neither the curbside crews nor the household hazardous waste event take construction debris.
Get it ready
The city's own answers list building materials among what residents can bring to the Green Center year round, and that site accepts household debris and brush rather than a full construction schedule, so confirm a project load with Public Works and Engineering at 281-420-5300 first.
A treadmill or weight machine is named on no city or hauler page, so the route has to be confirmed before it goes out.
City cost & eligibility
Exercise equipment is not named in the bulky rules and lawn equipment is refused at the household hazardous waste event, so call Public Works and Engineering at 281-420-5300 and confirm whether the machine is collected and what it costs.
When & how
Call 281-420-5300 before the machine goes out, and use a roll off container if the crew will not take it.
Get it ready
Break the machine down where you can and keep it out of the trash cart, because the bulky rules name large items and tied bundles rather than exercise equipment.
Heavy trash runs on every service day with large items limited to one or two, yard debris to five bags and limbs, fencing, flooring and carpet to five tied bundles.
City cost & eligibility
Heavy trash runs on the contracted residential service and no per item price is published, while a special collection or a roll off container is quoted by the hauler, so confirm the cost with Best Trash at 281-313-2378 or the city at 281-420-5300.
When & how
Put the items out on a regular service day by 7 a.m. and leave them at least three feet from the street with four feet of clearance, clear of vehicles and trailers.
Get it ready
Tie and bundle limbs, fence pickets, lumber, carpet and flooring in pieces no heavier than 40 lbs and no longer than 4 feet, keep limb diameter under 3 inches, and leave no more than five tied bundles at a time. Pool tables, storm debris, tires, batteries, motor oil, dirt, rocks, concrete and hazardous material are all refused at the curb.
Heavy or bulky trash is offered on every service day, so most pieces can ride with a regular collection. Large items are limited to one or two, yard debris to five bags under forty pounds, and limbs, fence pickets, lumber, carpet and flooring to five tied bundles under forty pounds and four feet with limb diameter under three inches. Trash goes out by 7 a.m., no less than three feet from the street with four feet of clearance all around, and never behind a gate because the crew will not enter a fenced yard.
The Green Center is residents only, cash only and closed Sunday and Monday
The Baytown Green Center at 1601 W Main serves Baytown residents only and is not for commercial use, so bring a driver's licence and a City of Baytown water bill with matching names. It accepts household debris, brush and tree limbs, electronic waste and recyclables on Tuesday through Friday from 12 p.m. to 7 p.m. or Saturday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Fees are charged by the load and by the vehicle, from a car or pickup truck up to a trailer, with a three foot maximum load height, no trailer over sixteen feet, and payment in cash at the gate.
The curbside crews refuse dirt, mulch, sod, rocks, bricks, tile, concrete, tires, car batteries, motor oil, cooking oil, pool tables, storm debris, construction debris and anything a contractor generates, and hazardous material is refused as well. Paint cans go out only when the paint is dry and the lids are off, limbs are refused when they are mixed with bagged leaves, lumber, wood or plastic, and a refrigerator needs the refrigerant drained and a bill attached before it leaves the house.
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.

Order a roll off container for a whole house cleanout
A household clearing a full house or a load too large for the curbside limits and the Green Center.
Cost & conditions
Roll off containers are quoted per job rather than published as a rate, so call the hauler at 281-313-2378 and choose option 2 to arrange one.
Arrange it
Call the hauler before the cleanout, describe the volume and the material, and keep refuse such as concrete, tile and hazardous waste out of the quote.
The crew will not collect construction debris, contractor waste or hazardous material, so the container is for household bulky waste rather than a demolition load.
