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.
Your place. One easy pickup plan.
A house, a condo or an apartment. Choose an accessible outdoor spot that works for your property. You arrange the move outside; we take it from there.
Measure doors and turns, and check the manufacturer’s moving instructions. Folding and moving methods vary by model. Have any required disassembly handled before pickup; we start outside.

Book a day you can be ready.
Choose from the available pickup dates before moving the machine out. Follow the readiness instructions in your confirmation. Book by 2pm at the pickup address for same-day pickup.

Make the equipment easy to identify.
Place the booked equipment in an accessible outdoor spot. Keep any separated parts together, add a photo and clear location notes to your order, and leave the approach clear.
You’re in the loop. Until it’s gone.
Confirmation when you book. A heads-up before arrival. Photos when it’s done.
A treadmill or weight machine is not named on the city item lists, so treat it as a bulky item and confirm before it goes to the curb, or take it to the county transfer station where it is priced as bulk waste.
City cost & eligibility
The city names furniture, appliances, car parts, storm doors and windows among its large items, and an exercise machine is judged by the same test of being too large for a cart rather than by a named listing. Call the refuse and recycling line at 703-385-7837 before the machine goes out, or plan a self-haul to the county transfer station on West Ox Road, where the load is weighed and priced by the ton or by volume at the gate.
When & how
Ask the city first, then set the machine out with the bulky items inside the 24 hour window if the route is confirmed, or take it to the county station during residential hours.
Get it ready
Break the machine down as far as it comes apart, keep the weights and hardware with the frame so the load stays manageable, and leave it where the crane truck has a clear approach.
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 Fairfax Public Works refuse and recycling collection, with the Fairfax County recycling and disposal centers
Set bulky items out with your city collection
A city household with a couch, a mattress, an appliance or a pile of household material that will not fit in a cart, and no need to drive anywhere.
Cost & conditions
No charge. Single-family homes, duplexes and townhomes on the city collection route, where the bulky item service is funded through the annual tax assessment rather than billed per piece.
Arrange it
Put the item behind the curb no more than 24 hours before your regular collection day, in the open where the crane truck can reach it, and leave it there until the crew has been by.
Electronics, batteries, paint, chemicals, tires and anything a contractor generated are outside this route, and the city does not collect on ten holidays, so a collection day that lands on a holiday moves to the next day.
City of Fairfax Public Works refuse and recycling collection, with the Fairfax County recycling and disposal centers
Haul it to the county drop-off centers
A city household that would rather not wait for the truck, has electronics or hazardous waste to clear out, or has a load bigger than the curb service handles.

Residential loads at the county centers, which the city directs its residents to with proof of a city address. The published residential schedule is written for county households, and separated recyclables, household electronics and household hazardous waste are taken free of charge at the same sites.
Arrange it
Load the car or truck, bring an ID or utility bill with the city address, and follow the site lanes: recyclables and food scraps in their own area, electronics and hazardous waste at their station, and weighed material through the scales.
The electronics and hazardous waste area at I-66 is closed on Wednesday, tires are capped at ten passenger or light truck tires per household, brick, concrete, dirt and rock are limited to small daily amounts and priced higher than mixed bulk, and commercial hazardous waste and commercial drop-off are refused.

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 the city collect a treadmill or a weight bench?+
Exercise equipment is not named on the city large item list, so call the refuse and recycling line at 703-385-7837 before it goes out. If the route is confirmed, the machine goes behind the curb with the other bulky items no more than 24 hours before your collection day. Otherwise a self-hauled machine is priced as bulk waste by weight or volume at the county transfer station on West Ox Road.Official guidance
