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.

A mattress is named on the city's accepted bulky list, so it leaves in the bulky pile on the household's scheduled collection week.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. The city publishes no per-item fee for the brush and bulky service, and a mattress is on the accepted bulky list. The service runs on a published schedule by zone rather than on call, and a special pickup of acceptable items outside the scheduled week can be arranged by telephone.
When & how
Find the quadrant and then the collection date for your section, and have the mattress at the curb before your scheduled week begins.
Get it ready
Keep the mattress in the bulky pile, separate from brush, and at least six feet from building overhangs, overhead wires of any kind, parked cars, telephone service boxes, gas meters and water meters.
Chairs, furniture, sofas, tables and bed frames are all on the accepted bulky list for the scheduled collection.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. No per-item fee is published for the brush and bulky service, and furniture is on the accepted bulky list. The collection follows the published zone calendar, with a special pickup available by telephone for acceptable items outside the scheduled week.
When & how
Put the furniture out before your scheduled collection week, after finding the quadrant and the date for your section.
Get it ready
Keep the furniture in the bulky pile rather than the brush pile, and keep it clear of the six foot radius the city asks for around overhangs, wires, parked cars, telephone boxes and utility meters. Carpet and padding are not on the accepted bulky list, so they do not belong in this pile.
Stoves, washers, dryers and water heaters are accepted bulky items, while anything still holding Freon has to be certified as purged before the city will take it.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. The accepted bulky list names stove, washer or dryer and water heater, and the city publishes no per-item fee for the brush and bulky service. A unit containing Freon such as a refrigerator, freezer or air conditioner is only collected once the Freon has been removed by an authorised facility and the unit carries that facility's decal.
When & how
Have the appliance at the curb before your scheduled collection week, or arrange a special pickup of acceptable items outside the scheduled week by telephone.
Get it ready
Empty and clean the appliance, secure or remove the doors, and get the Freon removed by an authorised facility with a decal fitted to the unit before it is set out, because an item containing Freon is on the unacceptable list until that is done.
Televisions are named on neither the accepted bulky list nor the unacceptable list, so the route has to be confirmed with the city before a set goes out.
City cost & eligibility
The city publishes no television route and no fee for one. The accepted bulky list names chairs, furniture, mattresses, sofas, stoves, tables, washers and dryers and water heaters, and the unacceptable list runs from batteries and car parts through construction material, dirt, household garbage and tires, without naming a television either way. Confirm the set with the city call center on 956-546-4357 before it is set out.
When & how
Confirm the route first, then either put the set in the bulky pile for your scheduled week or take it to the landfill if the city directs you there.
Get it ready
Keep the set out of the recycling stream, because the city's recycling programme accepts paper, cardboard, plastics one and two and metal cans but lists bulbs, glass, styrofoam and organic waste as not accepted. Wipe anything that stores personal data before the set leaves the house.
Computers and small electronics are named nowhere in the city's collection lists, so the route is confirmed rather than assumed.
City cost & eligibility
The city publishes no electronics drop-off and no fee for one on the pages reviewed. Electronics are absent from both the accepted bulky list and the unacceptable list, and they are not part of the recycling stream, so confirm the route with the city call center on 956-546-4357 or ask whether the landfill takes the item.
When & how
Confirm the route first, then follow whichever the city directs: the scheduled bulky collection or a self-haul trip to the landfill.
Get it ready
Wipe personal data from anything that stores it, keep electronics out of the recycling container, and keep batteries separate because batteries are on the unacceptable list for the bulky service.
Construction material, demolition, lumber, sheet rock, roof shingles, concrete, asphalt, block and brick are all expressly unacceptable to the brush and bulky service, so a project load is a self-haul trip to the city landfill.
City cost & eligibility
From $9.73 per load of one to 300 pounds of waste at the City of Brownsville MSW Landfill, with higher published rates of $16.22 for 301 to 1,000 pounds and $22.71 for 1,001 to 1,999 pounds, and $32.45 per ton above that. City of Brownsville MSW Landfill, open Monday to Saturday 7 a.m. to 3:45 p.m. A household paying for collection services through the public utility board is not charged for accepted waste when it presents the board's statement of charges, and disposal of four tires is also free with a verified account.
When & how
Take the load to the city landfill between 7 a.m. and 3:45 p.m. Monday to Saturday, and keep it out of the brush and bulky pile, which cannot accept it.
Get it ready
Keep construction material, demolition, lumber, sheet rock, roof shingles, concrete, asphalt, block, brick, dirt and corrugated metal out of both the bulky pile and the brush pile, and keep liquids and hazardous material out of the load entirely.
Exercise equipment is not named on the accepted bulky list or on the unacceptable list, so the machine is confirmed with the city before it goes out.
City cost & eligibility
The city publishes no rate for an exercise machine and does not name the category on either list. The accepted bulky list runs from chairs and furniture through mattresses, sofas, stoves, tables, washers and dryers to water heaters, and a machine has to be confirmed with the city call center on 956-546-4357 before it is put out.
When & how
Confirm the machine first, then put it out before your scheduled collection week or arrange a special pickup of acceptable items by telephone.
Get it ready
Take the machine down as far as it will come apart and keep the pieces together, remove any console or battery pack so it can be handled separately, and keep it six feet from wires, overhangs, parked cars and utility meters if it goes to the curb.
Bulky items leave on a published zone calendar, in a pile separate from brush, and the list of what the pile may contain is fixed.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. The city publishes no per-item fee for the brush and bulky service. The route is scheduled rather than priced, and a special pickup of acceptable items outside the scheduled week can be arranged by telephone.
When & how
Look up the quadrant and the collection date for your section, then have the piles out before the scheduled week, because the truck makes its pass for that area and does not return for late set-outs.
Get it ready
Brush and bulky items go out in separate piles, clear by six feet of building overhangs, overhead wires of any kind, parked cars, telephone service boxes, gas meters and water meters. The bulky pile may hold chairs, furniture, mattresses, sofas, stoves, tables, washers and dryers and water heaters, but not batteries, block, brick, car parts, cardboard boxes, concrete, asphalt, construction material, corrugated metal, demolition material, dirt, hazardous material, household garbage, Freon-containing items, liquids, lumber, roof shingles, sheet rock or tires.
Brush and bulky items go out in separate piles so each stream can be handled on its own. Nothing may sit within six feet of building overhangs, overhead wires of any kind, parked cars, telephone service boxes, gas meters or water meters, because the crews use mechanical equipment and the city asks for that clearance to protect property.
The service follows a published calendar rather than an on-call route, so a household looks up its quadrant and then the collection date for its section and has everything at the curb before that week begins. Items brought out late may be missed until the next cycle, and a special pickup of acceptable items outside the scheduled week is arranged by telephone.
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.

Self haul to the city landfill
A household with a load the brush and bulky service refuses, such as construction or demolition material, or a larger quantity of waste than the scheduled pile allows.
Cost & conditions
From $9.73 per load of one to 300 pounds of waste, with higher published rates for heavier loads and a per-ton rate above that. City of Brownsville MSW Landfill, open Monday to Saturday 7 a.m. to 3:45 p.m. A household paying for collection through the public utility board is not charged for accepted waste when it presents the board's statement of charges, and four tires are free with a verified account.
Arrange it
Drive the load to the city landfill during its opening hours and present the public utility board statement of charges if the household pays for collection that way.
The landfill page links the accepted waste list and the prohibited and special waste list as their own pages and carries the city's contact block at 1001 E Elizabeth Street with the call center on 956-546-4357. The list pages refused this network, so confirm the material, the landfill's own street address and the gate details with the call center before a load is driven out.
The self-haul route for a Brownsville address is the City of Brownsville MSW Landfill, which serves the city and surrounding communities, runs a compost programme and a scrap tire processing facility, and is open Monday to Saturday from 7 a.m. to 3:45 p.m. Waste is charged by weight band inside the city limits and at higher bands outside them, and a household paying for collection services through the public utility board is not charged for accepted waste once it presents the board's statement of charges, with four tires also free on a verified account.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Bulk junk removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Brownsville.
How much does bulk junk removal cost in Brownsville?+
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 does a mattress go out in Brownsville?+
A mattress is on the accepted bulky list, so it goes out with the bulky pile during the household's scheduled collection week rather than on call. Look up the quadrant and then the collection date for that section, keep the mattress separate from brush, and leave six feet of clearance from wires, overhangs, parked cars and utility meters.Official guidance
Will the city take a couch in Brownsville?+
Yes. A sofa, chair, table or other furniture is on the accepted bulky list, so it goes out during the household's scheduled collection week. The piles must be separate, with bulky items apart from brush, and at least six feet from wires, overhangs, parked cars and utility meters because the crews use mechanical equipment.Official guidance
How do appliances go out in Brownsville?+
A stove, washer, dryer or water heater is on the accepted bulky list, so it goes out in the bulky pile during the scheduled collection week. A refrigerator, freezer or air conditioner is different: anything containing Freon is on the unacceptable list until the Freon has been removed by an authorised facility and the unit carries that facility's decal confirming removal.Official guidance
Where does a television go in Brownsville?+
The city names televisions on neither its accepted bulky list nor its unacceptable list, so call the city call center on 956-546-4357 and confirm the route first. A television is not a recycling stream item either, because the city's programme covers paper, cardboard, plastics one and two and metal cans.Official guidance
Where do computers and other electronics go?+
Nothing in the city pages reviewed names electronics as an accepted bulky item, an unacceptable item or a recyclable, so the route has to be confirmed with the city call center on 956-546-4357 before the items leave the house. Batteries are expressly unacceptable in a bulky pile, so they travel separately.Official guidance
What do I do with construction material in Brownsville?+
The brush and bulky service expressly refuses construction material, demolition, lumber, sheet rock, roof shingles, concrete, asphalt, block, brick, dirt and corrugated metal, so a project load goes to the City of Brownsville MSW Landfill instead. The landfill is open Monday to Saturday from 7 a.m. to 3:45 p.m. and publishes a waste rate by weight band.Official guidance
Will the city take a treadmill in Brownsville?+
Exercise equipment does not appear on the accepted bulky list or on the unacceptable list, so call the city call center on 956-546-4357 and confirm the machine first. If it is accepted it goes out with the bulky pile during the scheduled week, separate from brush and clear of the six foot radius the crews need around wires and utility meters.Official guidance
How does brush and bulky collection work in Brownsville?+
It runs on a published calendar by city zone, so a household looks up its quadrant and then the collection date for its section and has everything at the curb before that week begins. Brush and bulky items go in separate piles six feet clear of wires, overhangs, parked cars and utility meters, and the accepted bulky list is specific: chairs, furniture, mattresses, sofas, stoves, tables, washers, dryers and water heaters.Official guidance
How do I find my brush and bulky collection week?+
The service follows a published calendar by zone, so the city directs residents to look up which quadrant the address falls in and then the collection date for the corresponding section, with the schedule and zoning map published on the brush and bulky page. Schedule questions, missed pickups, bin replacement requests and service concerns all go to the city call center on 956-546-4357.Official guidance
When is the city landfill open and what does a load cost?+
The City of Brownsville MSW Landfill is open Monday to Saturday from 7 a.m. to 3:45 p.m. and publishes a waste rate in weight bands that are lower for loads originating inside the city limits than outside them. A household that pays for collection services through the public utility board is not charged for accepted waste when it presents the board's statement of charges, and four tires are free on a verified account.Official guidance
What has to happen before a refrigerator is collected?+
An item containing Freon, such as a refrigerator, freezer or air conditioner, is on the brush and bulky unacceptable list until the Freon has been removed by an authorised facility and the unit carries a decal from that facility confirming removal. Stoves, washers, dryers and water heaters do not carry that condition and are on the accepted bulky list.Official guidance
