The clear-out can be finished.
You do not need a whole house of junk. Select the bags, boxes and larger items you actually have. Your combined price is shown online.
You want to know it is handled.
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.

Bulk waste is a weekly service on the recycling day, but the city does not publish which furniture it will take, so the item has to be confirmed.
City cost & eligibility
Weekly bulk waste is inside the residential base rate of $20.31 a month that took effect on January 1, 2026, and the city publishes no per item charge, but no retained page enumerates the accepted bulky items. Call GFL Environmental on 281-403-5800 and describe the piece before the collection day so it is not left at the curb.
When & how
Put the item out on the recycling day for the address, which is Thursday for households whose trash runs Monday and Thursday and Tuesday for households whose trash runs Tuesday and Friday, at the curb by 7:00 a.m.
Get it ready
Keep the piece clear of the recycling and garbage bins, which have to sit at least 5 feet apart with handles facing the house, and keep the load to what two people can handle at the curb.
A mattress is not named on any retained Missouri City page, so the weekly bulk route has to confirm it first.
City cost & eligibility
The weekly bulk service is part of the $20.31 monthly base rate and no per item charge is published, but the city's pages list only recycling and yard waste under items collected and never name a mattress or box spring. Call GFL Environmental on 281-403-5800 to confirm the item and any charge before the collection day.
When & how
If GFL confirms it, set the mattress out on the recycling day for the address at the curb by 7:00 a.m.
Get it ready
Take the bedding and frame off, keep the mattress and box spring separate so each can be lifted, and keep the piece dry and clear of the bins.
Appliances are not enumerated for the bulky route, and scrap metal has a free county drop-off that needs confirming as an appliance route.
City cost & eligibility
The weekly bulk service is inside the $20.31 monthly base rate with no published per item charge, but appliances are not enumerated either. The Fort Bend County Recycling Center accepts scrap metal free of charge at 1200 Blume Road in Rosenberg, which is a possible route for a metal appliance, so confirm the item with GFL on 281-403-5800 and with the county centre on 281-633-7581 before either one is used.
When & how
Confirm first, then either use the recycling day for the bulky collection or take the unit to the county centre during its published open hours.
Get it ready
Empty and clean the unit, take the doors off, and keep it clear of the recycling and garbage bins, which have to be at least 5 feet apart for the automatic trucks.
No retained page names a refrigerant unit, so both the curbside route and the county drop-off have to be confirmed.
City cost & eligibility
Neither the city's bulky service description nor the county's accepted list names a refrigerant appliance, and no refrigerant rule or fee is published on either page, so call GFL on 281-403-5800 and the Fort Bend County Recycling Center on 281-633-7581 and ask what the unit needs before it leaves the house.
When & how
Confirm both the route and any preparation requirement first, then use the recycling day for the address or the county centre.
Get it ready
Empty and clean the unit, take the doors off, keep the unit upright for transport, and leave the refrigerant sealed until someone confirms who is allowed to handle it.
A television has a named county drop-off that charges a fee, and the fee amount is not published.
City cost & eligibility
The Fort Bend County Recycling Center accepts electronics, including televisions, for a fee, but the city's page publishes the charge without an amount and no hours are printed, so call the centre on 281-633-7581 to confirm the fee and the drop-off window before loading the set.
When & how
Take the set to the Fort Bend County Recycling Center at 1200 Blume Road, Rosenberg, TX 77471, once the fee and hours are confirmed, or watch for the Missouri City Green electronics event, which is usually hosted twice a year.
Get it ready
Keep the screen whole and dry, wipe anything that stores data, keep the remote and cords with the set, and do not put it in the recycling bin because the commingled programme takes paper, cardboard, plastics, glass and metal cans only.
Computers and small electronics use the same county drop-off as televisions, charged as electronics rather than as free recyclables.
City cost & eligibility
The county centre takes recyclables and household hazardous material free but treats electronics as a paid drop-off, and the amount is not published on the city page. Confirm the item and the charge on 281-633-7581 before the trip, and ask about the Missouri City Green events as the free alternative.
When & how
Use the county centre at 1200 Blume Road in Rosenberg after confirming its hours, or wait for the twice-yearly Missouri City Green electronics event.
Get it ready
Wipe stored data from drives, laptops and phones, keep the power supply and cables with the device, and drop cell phones at the City Hall lobby, the Municipal Court lobby, the Police Station lobby or the Parks Maintenance Facility instead, since those sites take phones separately.
Construction material is named nowhere, while the private sites the city names take garbage and tree trimmings rather than renovation debris.
City cost & eligibility
No retained Missouri City page names construction or demolition material, and the private destinations the city lists are the BFI Blue Ridge Landfill for garbage and Living Earth Technology for tree trimmings, both charging fees that the city does not publish. Confirm with GFL on 281-403-5800 whether any of the load can ride the weekly bulky collection before arranging a private disposal route.
When & how
Confirm the route first, then either book the private site or arrange a hauler; nothing in the published weekly services covers renovation debris.
Get it ready
Keep construction material out of the recycling bin and the yard waste bags, and keep tree trimmings separate because the city's yard waste rules require biodegradable bags and brush bound under four feet and 40 pounds.
Exercise equipment is named nowhere, so the machine has to be confirmed against the weekly bulk route.
City cost & eligibility
No retained page names a treadmill, elliptical or weight machine, and the weekly bulk service description carries no item list, so call GFL on 281-403-5800 and describe the machine before it goes to the curb.
When & how
Confirm the item first, then put it out on the recycling day for the address if GFL agrees, at the curb by 7:00 a.m.
Get it ready
Strip the console and any loose weight plates so two people can handle the frame, and keep the machine clear of the bins, which need 5 feet of separation for the automatic trucks.
Weekly bulk waste is part of the residential contract and rides the same day as recycling and yard waste.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. GFL Environmental residential contract customers in Missouri City, where the base rate of $20.31 a month from January 1, 2026 includes weekly bulk waste along with twice weekly garbage, weekly recycling and weekly yard waste, with no per item bulk charge published.
When & how
Put the bulky material out on the recycling day for the address, which is Thursday where trash runs Monday and Thursday and Tuesday where trash runs Tuesday and Friday, at the curb by 7:00 a.m.
Get it ready
Keep bins at least 5 feet apart with handles facing the house, bag yard waste in heavy-duty biodegradable lawn and leaf bags, bundle brush under four feet and 40 pounds, and confirm anything the city has not enumerated with GFL on 281-403-5800 before setting it out.
Two route patterns, one recycling day for the big items
Missouri City publishes two service patterns. Households with trash on Mondays and Thursdays have recycling, bulk and yard waste collected on Thursdays, and households with trash on Tuesdays and Fridays have them collected on Tuesdays, with everything at the curb by 7:00 a.m. Garbage itself runs twice a week, and the city's ordinance sets the service window between 7 am and 7 pm. The automatic front-loading trucks need the garbage and recycling bins at least 5 feet apart with the handles facing the house, and the monthly base rate that took effect on January 1, 2026 covers the whole package, including holiday tree pickup in January.
The commingled recycling collection takes plastics, all metal cans, all cardboard, glass and paper or paper cartons every week, with containers rinsed and cardboard flattened and pizza boxes left out of the bin. Yard waste has to go into heavy-duty biodegradable lawn and leaf refuse bags that will not break when lifted, and anything in a regular solid waste bag is collected as trash instead. Brush has to be securely bound and no longer than four feet or 40 pounds. Yard waste and recycling ride the same day as the bulky collection.
The Missouri City Recycling Center beside the City Hall complex closed in 2016, and the city now names outside destinations for material the curbside programme does not take. The Fort Bend County Recycling Center at 1200 Blume Road in Rosenberg accepts glass, scrap metal, paper, plastics, styrofoam, antifreeze, car and truck batteries, oil filters, used motor oil, cooking oil and rechargeable batteries free of charge, and takes electronics for a fee, with questions on 281-633-7581. Garbage can go to the BFI Blue Ridge Landfill at 2200 FM 521 Road in Fresno on 281-835-6142, tree trimmings can go to Living Earth Technology at 1503 Industrial Drive for a fee on 281-499-5641, cell phones can be dropped at four city lobbies, and Missouri City Green hosts electronics events about twice a year.
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.
City of Missouri City Municipal Solid Waste Program with GFL Environmental
Use the weekly bulk collection
A Missouri City household on the GFL residential contract with a bulky item that can go out on the recycling day.
Cost & conditions
No charge. GFL residential contract customers, where the $20.31 monthly base rate from January 1, 2026 already includes weekly bulk waste with no published per item charge.
Arrange it
Put the item at the curb by 7:00 a.m. on the recycling day for the address, Thursday or Tuesday depending on the route pattern, and call GFL on 281-403-5800 if the item is not one you are sure about.
The city publishes no item list for the bulk collection, so an unconfirmed piece may be left at the curb, and the automatic trucks need the bins 5 feet apart with handles facing the house.
City of Missouri City Municipal Solid Waste Program with GFL Environmental
Take hazardous material and electronics to the county centre
A household with batteries, used motor oil, antifreeze, oil filters, cooking oil, styrofoam, scrap metal or electronics.
Cost & conditions
The city states that the recyclable and household hazardous material list is free of charge while electronics are accepted for a fee, and it publishes neither the amount nor the centre's hours, so confirm both on 281-633-7581.
Arrange it
Go to the Fort Bend County Recycling Center at 1200 Blume Road, Rosenberg, TX 77471, once the hours are confirmed, and keep electronics separate because they are the paid category.
Electronics are not free, the hours are not published on the city page, and the centre is outside the city, so the trip should be planned around a confirmed opening window.
A household with garbage to tip, or tree trimmings that the weekly yard waste bag limit cannot cover.
Cost & conditions
Both sites are private businesses and the city publishes their addresses and phone numbers without rates, so ask for the current fee when you call.
Arrange it
Call the BFI Blue Ridge Landfill on 281-835-6142 for garbage or Living Earth Technology on 281-499-5641 for tree trimmings and confirm before hauling the load.
Neither site is described as taking construction or demolition debris, and tree trimmings carry a fee.
A household or contractor with construction and demolition debris that no published city route covers.
Cost & conditions
Missouri City publishes no construction rate and no city drop-off for renovation debris, so the price comes from the hauler or the receiving site.
Arrange it
Book a licensed hauler or ask GFL on 281-403-5800 whether any part of the load can ride the weekly bulky collection, and confirm where the load is going.
Nothing in the published weekly services covers renovation debris, and a hauler load still has to reach a permitted site.
Self hauling in Missouri City means leaving the city route and using one of the destinations its own pages name. The Fort Bend County Recycling Center at 1200 Blume Road in Rosenberg takes glass, scrap metal, paper, plastics, styrofoam, antifreeze, car and truck batteries, oil filters, used motor oil, cooking oil and rechargeable batteries free of charge, and accepts electronics for a fee, with questions on 281-633-7581; neither the fee amount nor the hours are printed on the city page, so call first. Garbage can be taken to the BFI Blue Ridge Landfill at 2200 FM 521 Road in Fresno on 281-835-6142 and tree trimmings to Living Earth Technology at 1503 Industrial Drive on 281-499-5641 for a fee. Cell phones have their own drop-offs in the City Hall lobby at 1522 Texas Parkway, the Municipal Court lobby at 3845 Cartwright Road, the Police Station lobby at 3849 Cartwright Road and the Parks Maintenance Facility at 1523 Texas Parkway, and Missouri City Green hosts electronics collection events about twice a year. The city's own recycling center beside the City Hall complex closed permanently in 2016, so there is no municipal drop-off left.

Glass, scrap metal, paper, plastics, styrofoam, antifreeze, car and truck batteries, oil filters, used motor oil, cooking oil and rechargeable batteries free of charge, with electronics accepted for a fee.
Electronics are the paid category rather than part of the free drop-off, and the city page publishes neither the electronics fee nor the centre's hours, so both have to be confirmed on 281-633-7581.
Not published on the retained city page, so call 281-633-7581 to confirm the current drop-off hours before travelling.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Bulk junk removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Missouri City.
How much does bulk junk removal cost in Missouri City?+
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.
When does bulk waste go out in Missouri City?+
On the recycling day for your address. The city publishes two route patterns: households with trash on Mondays and Thursdays have recycling, bulk and yard waste collected on Thursdays, and households with trash on Tuesdays and Fridays have them collected on Tuesdays. Everything has to be at the curb by 7:00 a.m., and because the city does not print a list of accepted bulky items, call GFL on 281-403-5800 first if you are unsure about a piece.Official guidance
Will Missouri City collect a mattress?+
That has to be confirmed. Bulk waste is a weekly service inside the base rate and the city publishes no per item charge, but no Missouri City page names mattresses or box springs and the items collected section covers recycling and yard waste rather than bulky furniture. Call GFL Environmental on 281-403-5800, describe the item, and then put it out on the recycling day for the address by 7:00 a.m.Official guidance
Where do appliances go in Missouri City?+
That has to be confirmed first. Monthly bulk waste is a weekly service in the base rate with no published per item price, appliances are not named in the city's collected items list, and the Fort Bend County Recycling Center on Blume Road in Rosenberg accepts scrap metal free of charge along with batteries, oil, oil filters, antifreeze and cooking oil. Call GFL on 281-403-5800 about the curb route and the county centre on 281-633-7581 about the drop-off.Official guidance
What should I do with an old refrigerator in Missouri City?+
Ask before it goes out. No retained Missouri City or Fort Bend County page names refrigerators, freezers or air conditioners, and no refrigerant rule or fee is published, so neither the weekly bulk route nor the county drop-off can be promised for the unit. Call GFL on 281-403-5800 about the curb collection and the Fort Bend County Recycling Center on 281-633-7581 about the drop-off.Official guidance
Where does a television go in Missouri City?+
To the Fort Bend County Recycling Center at 1200 Blume Road in Rosenberg, where electronics are accepted for a fee, or to one of the Missouri City Green electronics collection events that usually run twice a year. The city publishes the electronics charge without an amount and prints no hours for the centre, so call 281-633-7581 first, and never put a television in the curbside recycling bin, which takes paper, cardboard, plastics, glass and metal cans.Official guidance
How do computers and printers get recycled in Missouri City?+
Through the Fort Bend County Recycling Center at 1200 Blume Road in Rosenberg, where the free drop-off covers glass, scrap metal, paper, plastics, styrofoam, antifreeze, car and truck batteries, oil filters, used motor oil, cooking oil and rechargeable batteries, while electronics are accepted for a fee that the city does not quantify. Missouri City Green also hosts electronics recycling events about twice a year, and cell phones can be dropped at four city lobbies listed on the recycling page.Official guidance
Where does construction debris go in Missouri City?+
There is no published city route for it. The retained pages name the BFI Blue Ridge Landfill at 2200 FM 521 Road in Fresno for garbage, phone 281-835-6142, and Living Earth Technology at 1503 Industrial Drive for tree trimmings at a fee, phone 281-499-5641, but neither is described as taking renovation debris and no construction rate is published. Call GFL on 281-403-5800 first and expect to arrange a private disposal route.Official guidance
Will Missouri City take a treadmill as bulk waste?+
It has to be confirmed, because no city page names a treadmill, elliptical or weight machine and the bulky service is described only as a weekly collection without an item list. Bulk waste does run every week on the recycling day for the address, Thursday for one route pattern and Tuesday for the other, inside the base rate and with no per item charge published, so call GFL on 281-403-5800 and confirm the machine before moving it.Official guidance
How often does bulk waste get collected in Missouri City?+
Every week, on the recycling day for the address. The monthly base rate covers garbage twice a week, weekly curbside recycling, weekly bulk waste and weekly yard waste, and the route patterns put recycling, bulk and yard waste on Thursdays for households with Monday and Thursday trash and on Tuesdays for households with Tuesday and Friday trash, with everything at the curb by 7:00 a.m. The city does not publish an item list for the bulk collection, so call GFL on 281-403-5800 when you are unsure.Official guidance
Who collects trash in Missouri City?+
GFL Environmental collects it under the city's residential contract, and a monthly base rate that took effect on January 1, 2026 covers garbage twice a week, weekly curbside recycling, weekly bulk waste and weekly yard waste, plus holiday tree pickup each January. Service runs between 7 am and 7 pm under the city ordinance, residential questions go to GFL on 281-403-5800 with a commercial line on 281-953-1460, and office hours are Monday to Friday 8 am to 5 pm.Official guidance
Which day do recycling, bulk and yard waste go out?+
The same day as your recycling, which depends on the route pattern. Households whose trash is collected on Mondays and Thursdays have recycling, bulk and yard waste collected on Thursdays, and households whose trash is collected on Tuesdays and Fridays have them collected on Tuesdays. Everything has to be at the curb by 7:00 a.m., and the city provides an interactive map to check the address if you are unsure which pattern applies.Official guidance
How should the bins be placed?+
The garbage and recycling bins have to sit at the curb at least 5 feet apart from each other with the handles facing the house, so the automatic front-loading trucks can service them, and materials should be out by 7 a.m. Yard waste goes in heavy-duty biodegradable lawn and leaf bags rather than regular trash bags, and brush has to be bound and kept under four feet and 40 pounds.Official guidance
Is there help for residents who cannot move the bins?+
Yes. Assisted or valet service is available for disabled, elderly and infirm residents, and each request needs a doctor's signature and contact phone number. Sign up with the Assisted Service Authorization Form or through GFL's dedicated Missouri City customer service centre on 281-403-5800.Official guidance
Where do electronics and household chemicals go?+
To the Fort Bend County Recycling Center at 1200 Blume Road in Rosenberg.
