You have decided what is going. Now give those bags and boxes a pickup day, with a price you can see before anyone arrives.
Book the unwanted bags and boxes left after packing. Choose an available pickup day before you hand back the keys, and arrange to have them outside.
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.
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 clear count. An exact price.
A few simple choices turn a mixed pile into a clear booking. No need to estimate how much of a truck it might fill.
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 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.
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.
First item / additional item
The highest first-item price applies once. Every remaining item uses its additional-item price. Loading, transportation and disposal are included. Applicable sales tax is shown before payment.

The local disposal guide
Bulk junk removal in Harrisonburg: start with the item’s collection rules, then choose the arrangement that fits.

The city's bulk program takes furniture, mattresses, home appliances, large packaging that will not fit in the trash cart and other large household items, up to five bulk items on one reserved day. Everything leaves on the regular trash day, and only after the address books that day.
The handoff matters
Bulk and yard debris are collected on the regular trash day, but only after the address books that day through ReCollect. The reservation closes at 12 pm on the business day before the pickup, and one reserved day covers up to five bulk items and ten yard-debris units. An item that was not part of the reservation is not collected, so book the category and the count before anything moves to the curb.

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.
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.
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.
Furniture, mattresses, home appliances, yard debris and leaves, large packaging that will not fit in the trash cart, and other large items that the normal trash collection does not take. One reserved day covers up to five bulk items and ten yard-debris units, and cardboard that can be broken down, bags of regular trash and regular recyclables are excluded.Official guidance
The City of Harrisonburg Public Works department runs the program, and residents reach it at 540-434-5928 or PublicWorks@HarrisonburgVa.gov. Trash is collected from a city-issued Toter trash cart, and bulk and yard debris are collected on the same day as the regular trash route once the address reserves that day through ReCollect.Official guidance
Five bulk items and ten yard-debris units on one reserved pickup day, and only what the reservation covers. The reservation has to be in by noon on the business day before the pickup, and regular trash bags, regular recyclables and cardboard that can be broken down are not bulk items.Official guidance
Buy refuse stickers from the Treasurer's office in the municipal building downtown or from Public Utilities at 2055 Beery Road and put one on each extra bag that goes out beside the Toter cart. The stickers do not expire, so they can be bought ahead of time. Bags of regular trash are not accepted as bulk items.Official guidance
