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.

Bulk trash and brush are collected at the curb every week on each trash pick-up day, with no separate appointment for items that fit the size limit. Bulk pieces may be no larger than 3 by 3 by 12 feet, and a household may put out about 4 cubic yards of brush or bulk each week.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. City of Bedford residential addresses on the collection routes, where bulk and brush are included in the published monthly solid waste rate.
When & how
Bulk and brush go out on the regular trash days, Monday and Thursday west of Central Drive and Tuesday and Friday east of Central Drive, and they belong at the curb before 7 a.m.
Get it ready
Cut brush to lengths of 4 feet or less and bundle and tie it at no more than 50 pounds per bundle. Keep each bulk piece inside the 3 by 3 by 12 foot limit, and keep concrete, paint, chemicals, batteries, fluorescent bulbs, electronics and tires out of the pile.
Furniture is named in the City's list of acceptable bulk items, so a couch, recliner or other household piece goes out at the curb on a regular trash day while it fits the size limit and the four cubic yard weekly allowance.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. City of Bedford residential addresses on the collection routes, where furniture is included in the published monthly solid waste rate as a bulk item.
When & how
Set the furniture at the curb with the bulk pile on a regular trash day, before 7 a.m., and keep it inside the 3 by 3 by 12 foot size limit.
Get it ready
Keep the piece whole and within the size limit, take off loose cushions and drawers so the load stays manageable, and place it clear of mailboxes, poles, water meters and parked cars.
A mattress or box spring is an ordinary household bulk item in Bedford, so it goes out with the weekly bulk collection on a regular trash day while it fits the size limit.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. City of Bedford residential addresses on the collection routes, within the bulk size limit and the four cubic yard weekly allowance included in the published monthly solid waste rate.

Appliances are named in the City's list of acceptable bulk items, so a washer, dryer, water heater or refrigerator is collected at the curb on a regular trash day. A unit that contains Freon, PCB or another liquid or gaseous compound needs that product removed and a certified technician's tag before collection.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. City of Bedford residential addresses on the collection routes, where appliances are included in the published monthly solid waste rate as bulk items.
When & how
Set the appliance at the curb with the bulk pile before 7 a.m. on a regular trash day, and have a refrigerant unit tagged before that day arrives.
Get it ready
Remove the refrigerant from a refrigerator, freezer or air conditioner through a certified technician who places a special tag on the item, empty the unit, and take off loose doors or parts that would make the load unstable.
Exercise equipment is not named in the City's accepted bulk list, so the route depends on the machine. A treadmill or bench that fits the bulk size limit and the weekly allowance is ordinary household bulk, while a larger piece needs a Republic quote.
City cost & eligibility
Exercise equipment has no named local rate. Confirm with Republic customer service at 817-317-2000 whether the machine fits the bulk size limit for the weekly collection or needs an extra pick-up, which is paid directly to Republic Services.
When & how
Call Republic Services at 817-317-2000 to confirm the machine, then set it out with the bulk pile before 7 a.m. on a regular trash day.
Get it ready
Fold or dismantle the machine where the maker allows it and keep the parts together as one item inside the 3 by 3 by 12 foot limit, then place it clear of cars, mailboxes and utility equipment.
Trash, recycling, bulk and brush must be at the curb before 7 a.m. on the collection day. The City asks residents not to put material out before 6 p.m. the evening before, while the recycling page states the ordinance window as 7 p.m., so follow the earlier of the two. Carts come in within 24 hours and stay screened from public view at other times.
A bulk piece may be no larger than 3 by 3 by 12 feet, and a household may put out about 4 cubic yards of brush or bulk each week. Brush is cut to 4 feet or less and bundled and tied at no more than 50 pounds per bundle. Anything larger is quoted by Republic Services at 817-317-2000 as an extra pick-up.
Refrigerant units need a certified removal and tag
A refrigerator, freezer or air conditioner that contains Freon, PCB or another liquid or gaseous compound must have that product removed by a certified technician who places a special tag on the item before collection.
Hazardous, electronic and construction material stays off the curb
Paint, chemicals, fluorescent bulbs, batteries, tires and electronic waste are not collected with regular bulk trash, and concrete is refused because it cannot be compacted. Electronics go to a Keep Bedford Beautiful event, household hazardous waste goes to the Fort Worth Environmental Collection Center, and construction material needs a private container or hauling service.
On the 2026 holiday schedule, Thanksgiving moves Thursday service to Friday and Friday service to Saturday, while Christmas and New Year's Day move Friday customers to the following Saturday. Monday through Thursday service runs as usual on the Christmas and New Year's weeks.
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 Bedford contract solid waste collection, collected by Republic Services
Republic extra pick-up for oversized loads
Households with a bulk item larger than the curbside size limit, or more brush or bulk than the weekly allowance.
Cost & conditions
Republic Services quotes an extra pick-up by phone at 817-317-2000 and publishes no rate table, so confirm the current price before the load is scheduled.
Arrange it
Call Republic Services customer service at 817-317-2000, describe the load, and follow the collection instructions the hauler gives. Payment for a special pick-up goes to Republic Services directly rather than on the water bill.
This route is for material Republic will accept, so concrete, paint, chemicals, fluorescent bulbs, batteries, tires and electronics stay excluded even on a quoted pick-up.

Chunk Your Junk household drop-off event
Households with broken furniture, odds and ends or electronics that will not fit in a residential trash container.
Cost & conditions
No charge. Bedford residents with proof of residency such as a recent water bill or driver license, at the annual Keep Bedford Beautiful event.
Arrange it
The 2026 event is Saturday, April 11, from 8 a.m. to noon at the Meadow Park Athletic Complex, 3200 Meadow Park Drive. Enter from Meadow Park Drive by turning south from Cummings Drive, and questions go to 817-952-2300.
Household hazardous waste is not accepted, contractors and construction debris are not allowed unless it is residential household construction, and old and used tires are refused at the event.
Residents of apartment complexes, which Bedford treats as commercial Republic Services accounts rather than single household accounts.
Cost & conditions
An apartment complex is billed as a commercial account, so the household routes and the free landfill days do not apply. Ask the property how its dumpster arrangement works, and confirm any charge with the complex rather than the City.
Arrange it
Contact the property manager or leasing office about using the complex dumpsters for excess refuse, or use the Keep Bedford Beautiful Chunk Your Junk event with proof of Bedford residency.
Bedford states that apartment residents are not authorized by Republic Services to take part in the free landfill days, and the City suggests asking the apartment about its dumpsters or joining the annual bulk waste collection event instead.
Bedford's self-haul routes run through the Keep Bedford Beautiful event calendar and the free landfill days rather than a city transfer station. Free landfill days fall on the fourth Saturday of the month from February through November in 2026, with no free day in January or December, at the Arlington Landfill, 800 Mosier Valley Road in Euless, open to residents from 7 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., and no-charge access is limited to individual homeowners with a Texas driver license and water bill showing the same address and waste delivered in a car, a pickup or a trailer up to 8 feet long. Larger and commercial loads are charged, hazardous waste is not included, and each e-waste item costs $25. Household hazardous waste goes to the Fort Worth Environmental Collection Center free with proof of residency, and electronics go to the Chunk Your Junk event, where DFW Reclaimers takes them. Tires have no city drop-off, so the City points residents to Time to Recycle for a location. 2026 free landfill day schedule and access rulesHousehold hazardous waste route and accepted materialChunk Your Junk event details and accepted materialBulk and brush pick-up rules
