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.

Small bulky loads go out on the second collection day of the week, and anything over three cubic yards waits for the zone collection week each month.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Bulk collection is included with the residential solid waste service at the published monthly rate, with no separate bulk pickup fee published. Three cubic yards or less can go out weekly on the second collection day, and larger volumes go out during the zone week each month.
When & how
Weekly pickups on the second collection day of the week for three cubic yards or less, and a monthly collection week for larger loads that follows the Monday of the month assigned to the zone. Items go at the curb the Sunday before the scheduled week and the crews work Monday through Friday of that week.
Get it ready
Separate brush and yard waste from the bulk items when the pile goes out, keep lots to what the crews can handle, and remember the refusal list: building material and carpet from remodeling, appliances without the freon removed, automotive parts, brick, concrete, dirt, oil, paint, railroad ties, rock, roofing material, shingles and treated lumber will all be left behind. Confirm the zone on the schedule page or with BTX311 before setting out.
Furniture is named on the accepted bulk list and goes out with the weekly allowance or the zone week.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Furniture is collected as part of the residential solid waste service with no separate fee published, using the weekly three cubic yard allowance on the second collection day or the larger monthly zone collection week.
When & how
Put furniture out on the second collection day of the week for a small load, or hold it for the zone collection week when the pile is larger than three cubic yards.
Get it ready
Keep furniture in the bulk pile rather than the carts, keep it clear of limbs and yard waste because the city asks for the two separated at set-out, and keep any piece with living pests out of the pile.
Mattresses are named on the accepted bulk list, and the city also points residents to other mattress options.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. A mattress is collected as a bulk item within the residential solid waste service, with no separate bedding fee published and the city linking other options for an unwanted mattress.
When & how
Set the mattress out on the second collection day of the week as part of a small load, or during the zone collection week when the pile is larger.
Get it ready
Keep the mattress dry and in the bulk pile and separate it from brush and yard waste. A mattress with living pests is not something to put out with household material, and the city asks residents to check the other options it lists when a piece can be handled differently.
Kitchen appliances are accepted as bulk, but a cooling unit needs a sticker showing the freon was professionally removed.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Regular kitchen appliances are collected as bulk items within the residential solid waste service with no separate fee published, and an appliance that held refrigerant is only collected when it carries a sticker showing the freon was removed by an appliance repair person.
When & how
Put the prepared appliance out with the weekly bulk allowance on the second collection day, or during the zone collection week for a larger pile.
Get it ready
For a refrigerator, freezer, air conditioner or other unit that held refrigerant, have an appliance repair person remove the freon first and keep the sticker on the unit, because an appliance without that sticker is on the refusal list. Empty the unit and keep it in the bulk pile rather than the carts.
Electronics are taken free at the city collection event each spring, including tube televisions.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. The city states there is no fee for electronics at its household hazardous waste and electronic recycling event, which accepts electronics and tube televisions. The Fort Worth collection center used for paint and chemicals does not accept electronics.
When & how
Take electronics to the city event on its posted date, which for 2026 is Saturday, May 16 from 9 to 11 a.m. at the city service center on SE John Jones Drive. The event is first come first served and capacity can be reached before it ends.
Get it ready
Bring proof of residency, which can be a city water or solid waste bill, and arrive early because acceptance closes when capacity is reached. Keep the items out of the trash and recycling carts, and note that the year-round Fort Worth center takes paint, automotive fluids, chemicals and batteries but not electronics.
Building material, concrete, roofing and treated lumber are refused at the curb with no city construction route.
City cost & eligibility
The city refuses building material and carpet from remodeling, brick, building materials, concrete, dirt, rock, roofing material, shingles, treated lumber and railroad ties in its bulk collection and publishes no construction collection or fee. Remodeling loads go to a private hauler or another facility that accepts construction debris rather than the curb.
When & how
Arrange the haul before the project starts, because construction material is refused in every curbside collection.
Get it ready
Keep the material out of the carts and out of the bulk pile, separate clean concrete, clean wood and metal so a receiving facility can handle the load, and keep hazardous material, oil, paint and dirt out entirely because those are refused as well.
The accepted list names lawn equipment rather than fitness machines, so the piece is confirmed with the city.
City cost & eligibility
The accepted list names lawnmowers, weed eaters and edgers with the gasoline and oil drained and does not name an exercise machine, and no separate price covers one, so call BTX311 or 817-426-9848 and confirm whether the machine counts as a large bulk item before it goes out.
When & how
Confirm the machine first, then set it out with the weekly bulk allowance or hold it for the zone collection week.
Get it ready
Break the machine down as far as it comes apart, take off the loose weights and the console, and drain any fluid if the machine carries one, following the same drained equipment rule the city applies to mowers and trimmers.
Three cubic yards or less goes out on the second collection day of the week, and anything larger waits for the zone collection week each month, which follows the first, second, third or fourth Monday of the month depending on the address. The pile goes at the curb the Sunday before the scheduled week and the crews collect Monday through Friday of that week, with brush and yard waste separated from the bulk items. Confirm the zone on the schedule page or through BTX311.
A refrigerator, freezer, air conditioner or other unit that held refrigerant can only be collected when it carries a sticker showing that an appliance repair person removed the freon. An appliance without that sticker is on the list the crews cannot collect, so the removal has to happen before the item reaches the curb.
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.

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.

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.
