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.

Reviewed · Sources below

Furniture, toys and household bulk

Accepted with preparation

Furniture and household bulky items go out during the address's every other month brush and bulk week, at no cost beyond the monthly residential rate.

City cost & eligibility
No charge. Included in the monthly residential rate for a City of Lancaster address. The city publishes no separate bulky item fee for the every other month collection, and a load over twelve cubic yards has to be removed by the household or taken to the drop-off instead.
When & how
Households north of Pleasant Run Road are serviced in odd months and households south of it in even months, and the material has to be set out and ready by 7 a.m. on the Monday of the service week.
Get it ready
Tag toys and yard tools as bulk items, keep furniture in the bulk pile rather than the carts, and box any loose household debris in a container no larger than two feet by two feet by four feet and no heavier than fifty pounds. Fence panels are accepted up to four by six feet and thorny vines have to be bagged or containerized.

Mattresses and box springs

Special rules apply

A mattress is not named on the city's acceptable bulk list or on the hauler's list, so the item has to be confirmed before it goes out on the service week.

City cost & eligibility
Neither the city bulk page nor the hauler brochure names a mattress among the acceptable bulky items, so the item is not guaranteed. Confirm it with the hauler's customer service line or the city at 972-218-1300 before the service week.
When & how
Ask before the address's brush and bulk month, because the collection runs every other month and a refusal would mean waiting for the next service week.
Get it ready
Keep the mattress dry and in the bulk pile rather than the carts, and keep it clear of the leaves and brush pile. If the hauler will not take it, an alternative is the paid special pickup or a drop-off load at the transfer station inside the twelve cubic yard allowance.

Appliances and kitchen equipment

Accepted with preparation

Washers, dryers, water heaters and kitchen appliances are named on the acceptable bulk list, and refrigerators and freezers are accepted once they are tagged.

City cost & eligibility
No charge. Included in the monthly residential rate for a City of Lancaster address. The city publishes no separate bulky item fee for the every other month collection.
When & how
Set the appliance out during the address's every other month service week, ready by 7 a.m. on the Monday.
Get it ready
Empty the unit, keep the doors on for the haul, and keep the appliance out of the grey and blue carts. A refrigerator or freezer needs a tag certifying removal of refrigerants before it can be collected, so arrange that work ahead of the service week.

Exercise equipment

Special rules apply

Exercise equipment is not named on the acceptable bulk lists, so a treadmill or weight machine has to be confirmed before the service week.

City cost & eligibility
Neither the city bulk page nor the hauler brochure names exercise equipment, so the item is not guaranteed at the curb. Confirm it with the hauler or the city at 972-218-1300, or plan on the paid special pickup or a drop-off load inside the twelve cubic yard allowance.
When & how
Ask before the address's brush and bulk month rather than setting the machine out on the assumption it will be taken.
Get it ready
Describe the machine and its weight when asking, remove loose weights and pedals, and keep the machine out of the grey and blue carts. Keep it clear of the leaves and brush pile so the two streams stay separated.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

Bulk runs every other month, on your side of Pleasant Run Road

Brush and bulk are collected every other month rather than every week. Households north of Pleasant Run Road are serviced in odd months and households south of it in even months, and the material has to be set out and ready by 7 a.m. on the Monday of the service week. A household that cannot wait can drop up to twelve cubic yards at the hauler's transfer station instead, with proof of residency.

Bag the trash, keep the recycling loose

Trash goes out bagged inside the grey 95 gallon cart, and recyclables go out empty, clean, dry and loose inside the blue 95 gallon cart, because bagged recyclables are refused. Carts stay at least three feet apart from each other and from obstacles such as mailboxes, cars, fences, gas meters and ditches, sit where the driveway meets the street with the wheels toward the residence, and have their lids closed.

City of Lancaster with Community Waste Disposal and Dallas County

Every other month brush and bulk collection

A Lancaster household with furniture, appliances, carpet, bagged leaves, brush, toys or yard tools to clear.

Cost & conditions
No charge. Included in the monthly residential rate for a City of Lancaster address, with no separate bulky item fee published for the every other month collection.
Arrange it
Put the material out and ready by 7 a.m. on the Monday of the address's service week, which is an odd month north of Pleasant Run Road and an even month south of it.

Every other month only, and the acceptable list is specific: appliances, furniture, toys and yard tools tagged as bulk items, bundled carpet in four foot lengths, fence panels up to four by six feet, bagged leaves and loose brush. Construction and remodeling debris, household chemicals, tires, batteries and propane are refused, and a refrigerator or freezer must be tagged certifying removal of refrigerants.

Review the bulk collection rules

City of Lancaster with Community Waste Disposal and Dallas County

Free drop-off at the hauler transfer station

A household that missed its month or has a load that does not fit the curbside pile.

Cost & conditions
No charge. Up to twelve cubic yards of bulky waste and brush at no additional cost for a Lancaster resident with proof of residency such as a current water bill. Charges apply to volumes above twelve cubic yards.
Arrange it
Drive the load to 2010 California Crossing in Dallas with the water bill, and weigh in at the site. The hauler's customer service runs weekdays from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturdays from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m., and the city answers at 972-218-1300.

Twelve cubic yards free, with charges above that. The same prohibited items apply, so chemicals, tires, batteries and propane still belong at the Trash Off or X-treme Green events.

Review the drop-off terms

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Lancaster households split their disposal between the curbside programme and the city's own events. Trash and recycling are weekly in the grey and blue carts, brush and bulk are every other month by side of Pleasant Run Road, and a load that cannot wait can go free to the hauler's transfer station on California Crossing inside a twelve cubic yard allowance. Furniture, appliances, bundled carpet, fence panels, bagged leaves and brush are the accepted bulk categories, while chemicals, tires, batteries, propane and construction debris are refused, and a refrigerator or freezer has to be tagged certifying removal of refrigerants first. The free Trash Off events in the odd months and the two X-treme Green events are where electronics, household chemicals, automotive tires, scrap metal and shredding go, and the Dallas County chemical centre on Plano Road covers the months between events for a household with chemicals to drop.

Hauler transfer station used for the free drop-off

Community Waste Disposal Transfer Station

2010 California Crossing Road, Dallas, TX 75220-2310

Up to twelve cubic yards of bulky waste and brush from a Lancaster household with proof of residency such as a current water bill, using the same acceptable item categories as the curbside bulk collection.

Customer service runs weekdays from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturdays from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. on 972.392.9300.

No charge. Free up to twelve cubic yards for a Lancaster resident with proof of residency, with a published per yard or minimum charge basis for volumes above twelve cubic yards.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

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

How much does bulk junk removal cost in Lancaster?

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.
