City collection A couch or other large piece of furniture is one of the items the bulky item service collects at no additional charge, inside the household's four collections per rolling twelve months and the eight cubic yard limit for each one. No charge. Residential sanitation addresses inside Longview, with four bulky collections per rolling twelve month period as part of the basic service and no more than eight cubic yards in each collection.
City collection A mattress or box spring is collected through the bulky item service rather than with the weekly carts. It is one of the items the city charges for, so it carries its own per-item fee even inside a household's free bulky allowance. $20 per mattress or box spring in a scheduled bulky item collection, charged because of the higher landfill rate for the unit. Residential sanitation addresses inside Longview; the item counts toward the eight cubic yard limit for that collection and the fee is billed to the sanitation account.
City collection Washers, dryers, stoves and similar appliances are on the fee list for the bulky item service, at a per-item charge. Anything that contains or once contained refrigerant is a separate case: the city will not collect a refrigerator, freezer or air conditioning unit, and the landfill takes one only after a certified technician removes the refrigerant and provides a certification letter. $20 per appliance in a scheduled bulky item collection, the same per-item charge the city applies to mattresses. Residential sanitation addresses inside Longview; the appliance counts toward the eight cubic yard limit, and a unit containing refrigerant is not eligible for collection at all.
City collection Each residential sanitation address gets four bulky item collections in a rolling twelve month period as part of the basic service, with no more than eight cubic yards in each collection, which is about two small pickup truck loads. Furniture, lawn equipment and brush are the no-charge items, and the city charges per item or per load for mattresses and appliances, carpet, construction material and demolition waste. No charge. Residential sanitation addresses inside Longview, four collections per rolling twelve month period at no additional charge for furniture, lawn equipment and brush, each limited to eight cubic yards; fee items and additional collections are billed separately.

The local disposal guide
Will the city take it?
Longview collects household waste, recycling and yard waste for residents who hold a City water bill, with a 95-gallon trash cart and a blue-lidded recycling cart at every qualifying home. Since the recycling change, the blue cart is serviced the day after the trash day and contaminated carts are tagged, so plastics numbered one, two and five, metal cans, paper and cardboard are the only things that belong in it. Large items move through the bulky item service, four collections per rolling twelve months and eight cubic yards in each, which takes furniture, lawn equipment and brush at no extra charge and charges a per-item fee for mattresses and appliances. Yard waste that will not wait goes to the Compost Site on Swinging Bridge Road, where residents with sanitation service drop it free, and anything the city routes will not take belongs in a tarped load at the Pine Hill Landfill.
A mattress or box spring is collected through the bulky item service rather than with the weekly carts. It is one of the items the city charges for, so it carries its own per-item fee even inside a household's free bulky allowance.
City cost & eligibility
$20 per mattress or box spring in a scheduled bulky item collection, charged because of the higher landfill rate for the unit. Residential sanitation addresses inside Longview; the item counts toward the eight cubic yard limit for that collection and the fee is billed to the sanitation account.
When & how
Schedule the collection with Sanitation at 903-237-1250, through the CitySend app or with the online form, and put the mattress out no earlier than the day before the collection. The mattress loads travel with the bulky truck rather than the weekly garbage truck.
Get it ready
Wrap the mattress so it stays dry and does not tear, keep it flat and parallel to the road, and leave the box spring with it if both are going out, because each unit is charged separately. Keep the piece clear of the carts and out of the way of the collection crew.
A couch or other large piece of furniture is one of the items the bulky item service collects at no additional charge, inside the household's four collections per rolling twelve months and the eight cubic yard limit for each one.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Residential sanitation addresses inside Longview, with four bulky collections per rolling twelve month period as part of the basic service and no more than eight cubic yards in each collection.
When & how
Book the collection with Sanitation at 903-237-1250, through CitySend or with the online form, and set the furniture out no earlier than the day before the pickup. A household that has used its four free collections pays a collection fee for another one.
Get it ready
Keep the piece whole and parallel to the road, and separate limbs and brush from the furniture because the crew needs those piles apart. Anything still holding liquid, refrigerant or hazardous material stays out of the load, and undetected unauthorized material is returned to the address.
Washers, dryers, stoves and similar appliances are on the fee list for the bulky item service, at a per-item charge. Anything that contains or once contained refrigerant is a separate case: the city will not collect a refrigerator, freezer or air conditioning unit, and the landfill takes one only after a certified technician removes the refrigerant and provides a certification letter.
City cost & eligibility
$20 per appliance in a scheduled bulky item collection, the same per-item charge the city applies to mattresses. Residential sanitation addresses inside Longview; the appliance counts toward the eight cubic yard limit, and a unit containing refrigerant is not eligible for collection at all.
When & how
Schedule with Sanitation at 903-237-1250, through CitySend or the online form, and set the appliance out no earlier than the day before the pickup. A refrigerant unit that cannot be collected goes to the Pine Hill Landfill after the refrigerant is removed by a certified technician.
Get it ready
Empty the appliance, remove or secure the doors so nothing can be trapped inside, and keep the cord with the unit. Leave the refrigerant in a sealed system unless a certified technician is recovering it, because both the collection and the landfill check that step before the unit moves.
Electronics do not belong in the blue recycling cart, which takes only plastics numbered one, two and five, metal cans, paper and cardboard, and the Compost Site takes yard waste. A screen long enough to meet the bulky item definition can be scheduled with Sanitation.
City cost & eligibility
Longview publishes no separate e-waste price and the bulky route carries its own per-item decision, so confirm the route and any charge with Sanitation at 903-237-1250 before the screen leaves the house.
When & how
Call Sanitation at 903-237-1250 to ask which route a screen can use and whether it qualifies as a bulky item over four feet long, then book the collection.
Get it ready
Wipe the drive or reset the device, keep the screen whole and never break a tube open, and take the batteries out of a remote or console first because batteries are refused in the collection streams. Never leave a television in the blue cart, where a contaminated load can be tagged and the cart pulled from the property.
Each residential sanitation address gets four bulky item collections in a rolling twelve month period as part of the basic service, with no more than eight cubic yards in each collection, which is about two small pickup truck loads. Furniture, lawn equipment and brush are the no-charge items, and the city charges per item or per load for mattresses and appliances, carpet, construction material and demolition waste.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Residential sanitation addresses inside Longview, four collections per rolling twelve month period at no additional charge for furniture, lawn equipment and brush, each limited to eight cubic yards; fee items and additional collections are billed separately.
When & how
Schedule every collection with Sanitation at 903-237-1250, through the CitySend app or with the online form. Items go out no earlier than the day before the collection, and material left after the eight cubic yards are collected has to come back onto the property until the next appointment.
Get it ready
Separate limbs and brush from the rest of the load and keep bundles within the brush limits, with limbs no more than ten feet long and no more than 24 inches in diameter. Loose garbage is refused, and hazardous material, liquids, dirt, rock, sand, glass, concrete, pallets, ceramic tile, sheet rock, roofing material and fencing cannot be collected at all.
Yard waste is collected every week on the same day as the garbage and recycling carts, and the larger loads move through the bulky item service by appointment. The Compost Site on Swinging Bridge Road takes yard waste free from residents with sanitation service and turns it into compost and mulch.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Residential sanitation addresses inside Longview for the weekly curbside yard waste collection, and residential sanitation customers with a current water bill and matching driver's license for free drops at the Compost Site.
When & how
Weekly yard waste runs on the household's garbage day, and it is a separate pass from the garbage and recycling trucks. The Compost Site is open Tuesday through Saturday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., with hours that can change on holidays, and larger yard waste is scheduled as a bulky collection.
Get it ready
Use paper yard waste bags or a personal container labeled Yard Waste, keep plastic bags out of the free weekly service, and bundle brush and limbs with biodegradable twine in pieces under four feet long and under three inches in diameter. The weekly limit is eight cubic yards, and bags and bundles stay four feet from the carts.
Construction materials and demolition waste are collected only as fee items in the bulky item service, inside the eight cubic yard limit, and several common renovation materials cannot be collected at all. The current can and cannot lists refuse concrete, dirt, rock, sand, glass, pallets, ceramic tile, sheet rock, roofing material and fencing, and the city's older administrative regulation lists some of those as fee items instead.
City cost & eligibility
Longview publishes no figure for construction or demolition loads. The current public list puts several renovation materials on the cannot-be-collected page while the administrative regulation lists some of them as fee items, so the material and its charge are confirmed with Sanitation at 903-237-1250 before anything is carried out.
When & how
Book a bulky collection with Sanitation and keep the load within the eight cubic yard limit, or take it to the Pine Hill Landfill as a tarped self-haul load. There is no separate construction debris route on the weekly carts.
Get it ready
Sort the load before booking and keep concrete, dirt, rock, sand, glass, pallets, ceramic tile, sheet rock, roofing material and fencing out of a bulky collection, because those are on the cannot-be-collected page. Material produced by a contractor is excluded as well, so a hired crew has to arrange its own disposal.
Tires are excluded from both the garbage and recycling collection and the bulky item service, and the Compost Site refuses them. The only published route is the Pine Hill Landfill, which takes a tire only when it has been split, quartered or shredded.
City cost & eligibility
Longview publishes no tire price. The landfill charges a tipping fee and gives Longview residents with sanitation service a discount that is quoted by the operator, so the amount is confirmed with Republic Services at 800-678-7274 or at the gate.
When & how
Take tires to the Pine Hill Landfill during its gate hours, Monday to Thursday 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., Friday 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Saturday 8 a.m. to 11 a.m., and do not put them out with the carts or in a bulky pile, where material collected undetected is returned to the address.
Get it ready
Split, quarter or shred every tire before the trip, because an unsplit tire is refused at the gate. Keep the load tarped, which the law requires on the road, and leave rims and wheels off if the tire is going in as a tire rather than as scrap.
The blue recycling cart takes household metal cans only, and the Compost Site's no-accept list names metal outright. A large metal item that meets the bulky item definition can be booked with Sanitation, and anything else travels as a tarped self-haul load to the Pine Hill Landfill.
City cost & eligibility
Longview publishes no scrap metal price. A metal item booked as a bulky collection is quoted by item, and a self-haul load at the landfill carries the tipping fee with the sanitation customer discount that the operator quotes, so the amount is confirmed before the load moves.
When & how
Call Sanitation at 903-237-1250 to ask whether the piece can ride a bulky collection, or take it to the Pine Hill Landfill during gate hours on a tarped load. Keep metal out of the blue cart unless it is a can.
Get it ready
Cut or fold anything longer than the ten foot brush limit, strip plastic, glass, wood and refrigerant parts before the load leaves the property, and wrap sharp edges. Keep loose metal out of the Compost Site load entirely, because that site refuses metal along with appliances, tires and construction debris.
Exercise equipment is not named on the no-charge or fee lists, and a machine does not fit in a cart. A treadmill or similar piece is booked with Sanitation and confirmed against the bulky item definition, which covers non-putrescible waste over four feet long that is not on the excluded list.
City cost & eligibility
No published rate covers an exercise machine. Whether the piece rides the free bulky allowance or becomes a fee item, and whether its electronics need a separate route, is confirmed with Sanitation at 903-237-1250 before it goes out.
When & how
Call Sanitation before the machine goes to the curb, then set it out no earlier than the day before the scheduled bulky collection. A household that has used its four collections in the rolling twelve month period pays a collection fee instead.
Get it ready
Fold or tie down the deck and handles, pull off the console, screen or battery pack so those parts do not ride with the frame, and keep the machine dry and out of the carts. A heavy machine is easier to handle with the belt and motor removed, which also lets the frame go as metal if Sanitation confirms that route.
Book a bulky collection before anything goes to the curb
Schedule by calling Sanitation at 903-237-1250, sending a CitySend request or filling out the online form, then put the items out no earlier than the day before the collection. Placing items at the curb authorizes the pickup and counts against the four free collections in the rolling twelve month period, and material left after the eight cubic yards are collected has to come back onto the property.
Carts are out before 7:30 a.m. with everything inside them
Trash and recyclables have to fit fully inside the city-provided carts, and the carts need at least four feet of clearance from cars, trees, trailers and mailboxes, with nothing parked in front of them. Carts go out before 7:30 a.m. on the collection day, leaving them out the night before is allowed, and blocked or improperly placed carts are not serviced.
Recycling now runs one day after the scheduled trash day, and a blue-lidded cart put out early on trash day is skipped and serviced the following day. A cart with household trash or other non-recyclable material in it is tagged and can be removed from the property, so keep styrofoam, clothing, wood, yard waste, bags and food out of the blue cart.
Yard waste goes out in paper bags or a labeled container
Yard waste is collected weekly on the garbage day in paper yard waste bags or in a personal container marked Yard Waste, limited to eight cubic yards per customer per week and kept four feet from the carts. Plastic bags of yard waste are not part of the free service, brush and limbs are bundled with biodegradable twine in pieces under four feet and under three inches in diameter, and the Compost Site on Swinging Bridge Road takes the larger loads free with proof of sanitation service.
Tarp the load and prepare appliances and tires before Pine Hill
By law every load must be tarped on the way to the Pine Hill Landfill. A tire is refused unless it has been split, quartered or shredded, a refrigerator, freezer or air conditioning unit is refused unless the refrigerant was removed by a certified technician whose certification letter comes with the unit, and oil, oil filters and lead acid batteries are not accepted at the site at all.
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.

Plastic bags are not collected in the free yard waste service and can only be taken as a fee item in the bulky program, stumps and root balls are outside the definition, and bundles heavier than a person can handle safely are worth splitting before set-out.
Free drop-off at the City of Longview Compost Site
A sanitation customer with limbs, brush, tree trunks, leaves, grass clippings or pine straw, or with glass bottles and jars that the blue cart refuses.

The landfill charges a tipping fee, and Longview residents with sanitation service receive a discount whose current amount is quoted by Republic Services at 800-678-7274, so the amount is confirmed before the load is built.

Prices, timing and the details that matter at your address.
How much does pickup cost?+
Choose your items to see the exact price. A standard sofa is $79 first and $29 additional. The highest first-item price applies once; every remaining item uses its additional-item price. Loading, transportation and disposal are included. Review any applicable sales tax and the final total before payment.
Can I book a pickup for today?+
Book by 2pm at your pickup address for same-day pickup, where available. Choose from the dates shown at checkout. Your booking is for a pickup day, and we text you when your hauler is on the way.
Do my items need to be outside when I book?+
You can book while your items are still inside. Arrange any indoor carrying and have everything outside and accessible according to your confirmation. We load and haul it away from there. Contact us before booking if your property has restricted access.
Does a Longview bulky collection include a mattress for free?+
No. Mattresses and box springs sit on the fee list for the bulky item service because of the higher landfill rate, while furniture, lawn equipment and brush are the no-charge items. Schedule the piece with Sanitation, and note that a mattress and its box spring are charged separately.Official guidance
Is a couch collected free in Longview?+
Yes, furniture is on the no-additional-charge list for the bulky item service, inside four collections per rolling twelve months and an eight cubic yard limit for each collection. Book it with Sanitation, keep it parallel to the road, and put it out no earlier than the day before the pickup.Official guidance
What does Longview charge to pick up an appliance?+
Appliances sit on the bulky item fee list and are charged per item, the same way mattresses are. Schedule the collection with Sanitation, and if the unit is a refrigerator, freezer or air conditioning unit, ask about the refrigerant rule first, because the city will not collect it and the landfill needs a certified removal letter.Official guidance
Where does a Longview television go?+
Not in the blue recycling cart, which takes only plastics numbered one, two and five, metal cans, paper and cardboard. A screen over four feet long can meet the bulky item definition, so call Sanitation at 903-237-1250 to confirm the route and book a collection.Official guidance
Who collects trash in Longview?+
The City of Longview Sanitation Department collects household waste, recycling, yard waste and bulky items for residents who have a City of Longview water bill. Every qualifying residence gets a 95-gallon trash cart and a 95-gallon blue-lidded recycling cart, and Sanitation answers questions and books collections at 903-237-1250.Official guidance
Why was my blue recycling cart tagged?+
The city now enforces the recycling rules, because trash in a blue-lidded cart contaminates the load at the processing facility. A cart with household trash or non-recyclable material is tagged and can be removed from the property, only plastics numbered one, two and five, metal cans, paper and cardboard belong in it, and recycling is collected the day after the trash day.Official guidance
Does Longview collect leaves and brush at the curb?+
Yes, weekly on the garbage day, in paper yard waste bags or in your own container marked Yard Waste, up to eight cubic yards a week and at least four feet from the carts. Plastic bags are not part of that free service, larger loads are booked as a bulky collection, and the Compost Site takes yard waste free from sanitation customers.Official guidance
Do Longview residents get a discount at the Pine Hill Landfill?+
Yes, residents with sanitation service receive a discount on waste delivered to the Pine Hill Landfill, which Republic Services operates rather than the city, and the current discount amount comes from the operator at 800-678-7274. The discount does not apply to commercial waste, and the load has to be tarped on the road.Official guidance
Why will Longview not collect my old refrigerator?+
Because it still holds refrigerant. The bulky item service excludes anything containing or that once contained refrigerant, so a refrigerator, freezer or air conditioning unit is not collected at the curb, and the Pine Hill Landfill takes one only after a certified technician recovers the refrigerant and the certification letter travels with the unit.Official guidance
