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.

Couches, sofas and household furniture

Accepted with preparation

Furniture left at the curb on the scheduled garbage day is collected by the city and billed per stop, and couches, chairs, bed frames and tables are the published examples.

City cost & eligibility
From $21 for minimum fee per collection stop for up to three cubic yards of special collection material at the curb, with an additional $7.50 for each cubic yard above three cubic yards, billed to the utility account for the address that generated the waste. City of Killeen residential utility accounts, for furniture placed at the curb on the scheduled weekly garbage day in a Monday, Tuesday, Thursday or Friday service area.
When & how
Put the furniture out on the scheduled weekly garbage day, since the special collection runs with the regular route and placing it at the curb grants permission for the pickup. Do not mix it with brush, because brush is picked up separately.
Get it ready
Keep the pile clear of containers, fences, low hanging wires, parked vehicles and other obstacles so the collection vehicle has room, and keep construction material, tires, rock, dirt and liquids out of it because those are prohibited at the curb.

Mattresses and box springs

Accepted with preparation

A mattress is named on the curbside special collection list, and the Transfer Station also takes four mattresses a month free for a residential utility customer.

City cost & eligibility
From $21 for minimum fee per collection stop for up to three cubic yards at the curb, with $7.50 per additional cubic yard; a residential utility customer may also take up to four mattresses per calendar month to the Transfer Station at no charge, while a non-utility or commercial customer pays a $20 processing fee per mattress or box spring.

When & how
Either set the mattress out on the scheduled garbage day for the curbside collection, or take it to the Transfer Station on State Highway 195 during its opening hours inside the four mattress monthly allowance.

Appliances and white goods

Accepted with preparation

Water heaters, stoves, washing machines and dryers are on the curbside special collection list, and the Transfer Station recycles appliances such as stoves and water heaters.

City cost & eligibility
From $21 for minimum fee per collection stop for up to three cubic yards at the curb, with $7.50 per additional cubic yard. City of Killeen residential utility accounts, for appliances placed at the curb on the scheduled weekly garbage day; units holding refrigerant are handled under a separate provision and are priced at the Transfer Station instead.

Get it ready
Empty the appliance, take the doors off, keep it clear of other obstacles for the crane and grapple vehicle, and never put an appliance in a roll-off container because appliances are on that service's refused list.

Refrigerators, freezers and air conditioners

Special rules apply

A refrigerant unit has its own provisions: the city gives phone instructions for the curbside route and the Transfer Station charges a published per unit fee.

City cost & eligibility
$21 per freon appliance at the Transfer Station for all customers, covering air conditioning units, refrigerators, freezers and water coolers, before tax. Any customer bringing a freon appliance to the Transfer Station on State Highway 195; the curbside route instead requires instructions from the Solid Waste Division on 254-501-7785 because special provisions apply to appliances containing refrigerants.
When & how
Call the Solid Waste Division on 254-501-7785 for the curbside instructions, or take the unit to the Transfer Station during its opening hours and pay the per unit freon fee at the gate.
Get it ready
Empty and clean the unit, take the doors off, and keep the appliance off a curb pile until the division has given its refrigerant instructions, because the freon provision is separate from the ordinary special collection.

Televisions

Special rules apply

Televisions are named nowhere on the Killeen pages, so the set has to be confirmed before it is set out or hauled to the station.

City cost & eligibility
No retained Killeen page names a television or an electronics drop-off, and the Transfer Station's accepted list covers brush, construction and demolition debris, furniture, grass clippings, household garbage, leaves and yard waste rather than devices. Confirm the set with the Solid Waste Division on 254-501-7785 before it goes out, and ask whether it can be quoted into the special collection at the curb or has to go to the Transfer Station.
When & how
Confirm the route first, then use the scheduled garbage day if the city agrees or the Transfer Station on State Highway 195 during its opening hours.
Get it ready
Keep the screen whole and dry, wipe anything that stores data, keep the remote and cords with the set, and keep it clear of the pile's obstacles if it is going to the curb.

Computers and household electronics

Special rules apply

Computers and small electronics are named nowhere, so the destination has to be confirmed with the division.

City cost & eligibility
The city publishes no electronics collection, no electronics fee and no electronics drop-off on the pages retained here, and the recycling page lists paper, cardboard, plastics 1 and 2, glass and metal cans rather than devices. Confirm the item with the Solid Waste Division on 254-501-7785, and note that the recycling center does take antifreeze, motor oil, oil filters and lead acid batteries.
When & how
Confirm the route first, then use the scheduled garbage day or the Transfer Station during its opening hours.
Get it ready
Wipe stored data from drives, laptops and phones, keep the power supply and cables together, and keep the device out of the recycling container because the recycling programme accepts only the listed materials.

Construction and remodeling debris

Not on the regular city route

Construction and demolition debris is prohibited at the curb and goes to the Transfer Station by weight, with commercial roll-off containers as the contractor option.

City cost & eligibility
From $4 for minimum fee per 100 pounds for a solid waste utility customer at the Transfer Station, where the per ton rate is $80.00 before tax, a non-utility customer pays $137.60 a ton with a $6.88 per 100 pounds minimum, and the residential free allowance of 500 pounds a month covers qualifying residential waste rather than the fee items. City of Killeen solid waste utility customers or non-utility customers bringing the load to the Transfer Station on State Highway 195 with a valid ID and, for the utility rate, a current Killeen water bill showing active solid waste service.
When & how
Take the load to the Transfer Station on State Highway 195, which runs Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Wednesday and Saturday 8 a.m. to 3 p.m., and expect the load to be weighed on the scale.
Get it ready
Keep construction material out of the curb pile because it is prohibited there, cover the load because an unsecured load draws a surcharge at the gate, and keep appliances, asbestos, batteries, excavated soil, hazardous materials, liquids and tires out of a roll-off container because those are refused and billed back if found.

Exercise equipment

Special rules apply

Exercise equipment is named nowhere, so a machine has to be quoted or confirmed before it goes out for the crane vehicle.

City cost & eligibility
No retained Killeen page names a treadmill, elliptical or weight machine, and the bulky waste that is quoted into the special collection is described with examples such as furniture, grills, toys, ironing boards and lawn furniture. Call the Solid Waste Division on 254-501-7785 for a price quote and for the safe clearance instructions that the crane and grapple vehicle needs.
When & how
Confirm the quote and the placement instructions first, then put the machine out on the scheduled garbage day if the city agrees, or take it to the Transfer Station.
Get it ready
Strip the console and any loose weights so the frame is manageable, fold the deck where the maker allows it, and keep the machine clear of containers, fences, low-hanging wires and parked vehicles so the collection vehicle has safe clearance.

Bulky waste and household cleanouts

Accepted with preparation

Bulky waste placed at the curb on the scheduled garbage day is collected and billed per stop, with a volume charge above three cubic yards.

City cost & eligibility
From $21 for minimum fee per collection stop for up to three cubic yards of special collection material at the curb, with an additional $7.50 for each cubic yard above three cubic yards, billed to the monthly utility account. City of Killeen residential utility accounts in a Monday, Tuesday, Thursday or Friday service area, for material that is not on the prohibited list.
When & how
Put the material out on the scheduled weekly garbage day. The special collection is collected with the regular route and placing it at the curb grants permission for the pickup, so the account is billed afterwards rather than a request being required.
Get it ready
Keep the pile clear of containers, fences, low hanging wires, parked vehicles, mailboxes and gas meters, keep bags and boxes under 50 pounds, and leave boats, camper shells, dirt, hazardous waste, lead acid batteries, liquid waste, oil or gas machinery, rock, tires and construction debris out of it.

Not on the regular city route

When & how

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

One container, one weekly day and a six bag yard waste limit

Killeen splits into four collection areas with garbage service on a Monday, Tuesday, Thursday or Friday route, and the monthly garbage fee for a 96-gallon container is $19.78. Included in that fee are one weekly collection of garbage or rubbish in the city roll-out container and one weekly collection of yard waste, which is leaves, grass clippings and shrub trimmings in bags only with a six bag limit. Containers go out no earlier than 8 p.m. the evening before and no later than 7 a.m. on the collection day, placed at or near the driveway about four feet from any mailbox, obstacle or other container with the wheels and handle towards the residence.

Bulky material is collected and billed, not booked

All waste materials except the prohibited items that are placed at the curb on the scheduled weekly garbage day are picked up by the city, and the utility account for the address that generated the waste is billed for the service. Placing the material out grants permission for the pickup. The examples the city publishes are furniture such as couches, chairs, mattresses, bed frames and tables, appliances such as water heaters, stoves, washing machines and dryers, other bulky waste such as barbecue grills, toys, ironing boards and lawn furniture, and excess garbage in sturdy plastic bags or boxes under 50 pounds. The charge is a minimum of $21 per collection stop for up to three cubic yards plus $7.50 for each additional cubic yard, and excess garbage reloads during the regular route are $10.00 each.

What the curb refuses, and what the Transfer Station takes

Boats, camper shells, dirt, hazardous waste material, lead acid batteries, liquid waste of any kind, machinery containing oil or gas such as engines and lawn mowers, rock, tires, and construction and demolition debris are all prohibited at the curb. They belong at the Killeen Transfer Station on State Highway 195, which accepts brush, construction and demolition debris, furniture, grass clippings, household garbage, leaves and yard waste, and refuses asbestos, fertilizers, hazardous waste, liquids, medical waste, other TCEQ-prohibited special waste, pesticides, septic waste and animal carcasses. Customers bring a valid ID and a current Killeen water bill showing active solid waste service, an unsecured load draws a $26.25 surcharge, and recycling at the station covers appliances such as stoves, water heaters, washers and dryers.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

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

How much does bulk junk removal cost in Killeen?

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 furniture get picked up in Killeen?

Put it at the curb on your scheduled garbage day and the city will collect it and bill the utility account for the address. Couches, chairs, mattresses, bed frames and tables are named on the special collection list, and the charge is a minimum per collection stop for up to three cubic yards, with an extra rate for every cubic yard beyond that and the exact amounts set out in the city fee records. Placing the material out grants permission for the pickup, so there is no call to make unless you want a quote first.Official guidance

Where does a mattress go in Killeen?

Two ways. A mattress is named on the city's special collection list, so it can go at the curb on the scheduled garbage day and be billed to the utility account at the published per stop rate. A residential solid waste utility customer can also take up to four mattresses per calendar month to the Transfer Station at no charge, with a valid ID and a current Killeen water bill showing active solid waste service, while a non-utility or commercial customer pays the published processing fee per item there.Official guidance

Will Killeen take a stove or a water heater?

Yes. Water heaters, stoves, washing machines and dryers are on the city's special collection list, so they can go at the curb on the scheduled garbage day and are billed to the utility account at the published per stop minimum with a per cubic yard charge above three cubic yards. The Transfer Station also takes appliances such as stoves, water heaters, washers and dryers for recycling, where a residential utility customer can use the free monthly allowance for qualifying waste.Official guidance

What is different about a refrigerator or air conditioner in Killeen?

Refrigerant units have their own provisions. The city says special provisions apply to appliances containing refrigerants and directs residents to call the Solid Waste Division on 254-501-7785 for instructions, and the commercial services page repeats that air conditioning units and refrigerators need the division's guidance. At the Transfer Station, freon appliances such as air conditioning units, refrigerators, freezers and water coolers carry a published per unit fee for all customers, and they are not included in the free monthly residential allowance.Official guidance

Where does a television go in Killeen?

That has to be confirmed, because no Killeen page names televisions or an electronics programme. The Transfer Station accepts brush, construction and demolition debris, furniture, grass clippings, household garbage, leaves and yard waste, and the curbside special collection covers bulky waste such as furniture, grills and lawn furniture, so call the Solid Waste Division on 254-501-7785 and ask which route applies to a television before setting it out.Official guidance

How do computers and printers get disposed of in Killeen?

That has to be confirmed, because no retained city page names computers, printers or an electronics programme. The Recycling Center accepts paper, cardboard, plastics 1 and 2, glass bottles and jars and metal cans free of charge, along with antifreeze, motor oil, oil filters and lead acid batteries, while the Transfer Station takes household and bulky waste. Call the Solid Waste Division on 254-501-7785 and describe the device before deciding on a route.Official guidance

Can construction debris go out at the curb in Killeen?

No. Construction and demolition debris is on the city's prohibited list for curbside collection, along with tires, rock, dirt, liquid waste, hazardous waste and machinery containing oil or gas. It goes to the Transfer Station on State Highway 195 instead, where a solid waste utility customer pays the published per ton rate with a per 100 pounds minimum, a non-utility customer pays more, and a residential utility account has a free monthly allowance for qualifying waste. Contractors can also rent a 20, 30 or 40 cubic yard roll-off container for construction and demolition debris.Official guidance

Will Killeen take a treadmill as bulky waste?

No city page names a treadmill, elliptical or weight machine, so ask first. Killeen's special collection covers bulky waste such as furniture, stoves, water heaters, chairs and construction and demolition waste that is prohibited in the dumpster, and it is picked up by a vehicle with a crane and grapple that needs safe clearance, with a price quote from the Solid Waste Division on 254-501-7785. The published curbside examples are furniture, appliances, grills, toys, ironing boards and lawn furniture.Official guidance

How is bulky waste charged in Killeen?

By the stop and by volume. All waste materials except the prohibited items placed at the curb on the scheduled garbage day are picked up and billed to the utility account for the address that generated them, at a minimum charge for a collection stop covering up to three cubic yards plus an additional rate for each cubic yard above that. Placing the waste out grants permission for the pickup, and the city also bills a separate fee for an overloaded container or for excess garbage reloads.Official guidance

What is different about refrigerant appliances?

At the Transfer Station, freon appliances such as air conditioning units, refrigerators, freezers and water coolers are charged a per unit fee for every customer and are excluded from the free residential allowance.Official guidance

What can never go out at the curb?

Boats, camper shells, dirt, hazardous waste material, lead acid batteries, liquid waste of any kind, machinery containing oil or gas such as engines and lawn mowers, rock, tires, and construction and demolition debris are all prohibited at the curb.
