Ready for that machine to go? Leave it at the curb and it can be gone today. Choose your equipment, see the exact price and book by 2pm for same-day pickup.
A new use for the same space, once the old machine is outside and gone.
Room for what comes next
Your space can have a new purpose.
A home office. Room for a guest. A little more floor to enjoy. When an old machine is in the way, a clear pickup plan makes the next step easier.
The room is changing.
Book the equipment you are ready to let go of, whether it is one exercise bike or several machines. See the total before making the plan.
A replacement is coming.
Check whether your retailer includes removal. If the old treadmill is still your responsibility, give it a pickup day of its own.
It is not making the move.
Settle the price online, arrange to have it outside, and follow the pickup through text updates and completion photos. One less thing to coordinate before the keys change hands.
Choose by the type of equipment. A brand name does not mean a different item, but a walking pad and a full treadmill do.
Treadmill, walking pad or commercial model?
Household treadmill includes folding home models with a tall console. Choose Walking pad for a compact under-desk model, or Commercial treadmill for a large gym machine. All equipment opens those choices.
An exercise bike, elliptical or rower
Spin, upright, recumbent and air bikes all use Exercise bike, including Peloton and other brands. One elliptical includes its connected base, handles and pedals. Rowing machines and Pilates reformers have their own choices.
Weights, racks and benches
Add together the pounds of loose dumbbells, kettlebells, plates and barbells. Free weights are priced in 10 lb units, rounding the combined weight up. For example, 25 lb uses three units. Add a stand, rack or bench separately if it is going too.

A machine can be too heavy or awkward for a solo move. Arrange suitable help for indoor carrying, stairs or any dismantling needed to reach the outdoor pickup spot.
A pickup day is not an exact arrival window. Tell us before booking about a shared loading area, restricted outdoor access or equipment whose size or setup you are unsure how to select.

Gym equipment is named, but conditionally. The City lists it among the items heavy trash does not include when it is extremely heavy or bulky, and asks residents to call AmeriWaste about the specific machine before it goes out.
City cost & eligibility
Heavy trash carries no separate charge under the residential contract, but whether a particular machine qualifies is a judgment the City delegates to the hauler, so confirm the machine with AmeriWaste on 281-585-3200 before setting it out.
When & how
Call AmeriWaste on 281-585-3200 about the specific machine, then, if it qualifies, put it at the curb by 7 a.m. on the collection day, at least 4 feet from other objects and within the two item allowance.
Get it ready
Break the machine down as far as it will come apart, take the console and any battery off, and remove loose weights so the frame is liftable by two people, because anything two people cannot safely lift is refused. Keep it out of the recycling cart and out of the yard waste pile.
League City's bulky route is called heavy trash and it runs on the collection days. A household may set out up to two heavy trash items per collection day, at the curb by 7 a.m., at least 4 feet from other objects and light enough for two people to lift.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Heavy trash is part of the AmeriWaste residential contract and carries no separate charge, with the residential garbage rate published at 21 dollars 69 cents a month including fees and sales tax since May 1, 2025. A scheduled pickup for qualifying debris in a purchased dumpster bag carries its own fee.
When & how
Trash runs twice a week by zone and heavy trash is serviced on the collection days. Everything goes to the curb by 7 a.m. on the service day and no earlier than 6 p.m. the evening before, and collection happens any time between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m.
Get it ready
Keep the load to two heavy trash items per collection day, stay at least 4 feet from other objects, and keep construction waste, computers, televisions, microwaves and car parts out of the pile because the City refuses them. Yard waste goes out separately under its own rules, bagged or bundled, capped at six items per pickup and never including tree trunks or root balls.
Two trash days by zone and a curb window that starts the night before
League City runs three trash zones: the yellow zone on Mondays and Thursdays, the green zone on Tuesdays and Fridays and the blue zone on Wednesdays and Saturdays. Cans go to the curb by 7 a.m. on the service day and no earlier than 6 p.m. the night before, and collection can happen any time between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m., so the Town publishes a trash day rather than a trash time. Trash has to be inside a container of 55 gallons or less and everything inside the bin has to be bagged. Heavy trash is serviced on the collection days, and yard waste runs on both service days as well.
Heavy trash is the bulky route, and three numbers decide it. A household may place up to two heavy trash items at the curb per collection day. Each pile has to sit at least 4 feet from other objects so the truck can reach it. And nothing that cannot be safely lifted and placed on the truck by two people is accepted at all. Furniture, dryers, washing machines, stoves, toilets with the bowl and tank separated, refrigerators and freezers that have been drained of refrigerant, and yard waste are all on the list, while computers, televisions, microwaves, car parts and construction waste are refused.
The two streams that leave the curbside route entirely
Two groups never go out with the trash or the heavy trash. Electronics are hazardous under the City's rules, so televisions, computers and microwaves move through the household hazardous waste programme: a resident registers with AmeriWaste for one of four curbside pickups a year, restricted to televisions, electronics, microwaves and appliances, or takes the material to a spring or fall event at Hometown Heroes Park. Construction debris is the other exception, and it is the resident's own responsibility, because AmeriWaste does not collect it and the City requires it in roll-off containers disposed of at a Type IV landfill, with the AmeriWaste facility, nearby landfills and a fee-based dumpster bag pickup as the alternatives for smaller loads.
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.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Exercise equipment removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in League City.
How much does exercise equipment removal cost in League City?+
A household treadmill is $159 as the first item and $85 additional. An elliptical is $159 first and $85 additional; an exercise bike is $119 first and $40 additional. Choose all your items to see the combined price. Loading, transportation and disposal are included, with any applicable sales tax shown before payment.
Can you pick up a treadmill or exercise bike today?+
Book by 2pm in the pickup address’s local time for same-day pickup. Available dates appear at checkout. Have the equipment outside and accessible according to your confirmation. You receive pickup updates and completion photos; we book a day rather than an exact appointment time.
Will you dismantle my treadmill or carry it out of the basement?+
Dropcurb pickup starts outside. Arrange indoor carrying, stairs and any dismantling needed to get your equipment out before pickup. Check the moving instructions for your exact model and arrange suitable help. We load and haul away the equipment from an accessible outdoor spot.
Which option covers a Peloton, spin bike or recumbent bike?+
Choose Exercise bike for one stationary bike, including spin, upright, recumbent and air bikes. Peloton and other brands use the same stationary-bike choice. A treadmill, walking pad and outdoor bicycle are different items, so select their matching options.
How do I book free weights, a weight rack or a bench?+
Enter the combined weight in pounds for your dumbbells, kettlebells, plates and barbells. Booking rounds that total up to the next 10 lb unit: 25 lb uses three units. Stands, racks and benches are separate items and do not include the loose weights. Add each one that is going.
Will League City take a treadmill?+
Gym equipment is named on the heavy trash list only conditionally, because the City states that equipment which is extremely heavy or bulky will not be picked up and asks residents to call AmeriWaste on 281-585-3200 about the specific machine. If it qualifies it goes out by 7 a.m. on the collection day, at least 4 feet from other objects and within the two item allowance, and it has to be light enough for two people to lift.Official guidance
