A clear count. An exact price.

Count the bags and boxes, not everything inside.

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.

Bulky items, special pick-ups and cleanouts

Accepted with preparation

Up to twelve special pick-ups a service year are free, with the pile capped at twelve cubic yards and an advance charge for anything larger.

City cost & eligibility
$100 for in advance for a special pick-up pile larger than the twelve cubic yard limit, with up to twelve special pick-ups a service year provided free of charge and any payment required at least forty eight hours before the regular refuse collection day. City of Suffolk residential addresses receiving refuse collection, for the service year running from July 1 through June 30; the free allowance covers the twelve standard piles, and the charge applies only to an oversized pile.
When & how

Get it ready

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

One can, collected weekly, billed twice a year

Refuse is collected weekly and residents place disposable material in the city issued curbside can. Under the SPSA SORT system that began on July 1, 2026, trash and recyclable material may go together in either the green trash can or the blue recycling can, and the sorting happens at the authority's regional facility. The service is billed twice each year on the real estate tax bill, can repairs and missed collections are reported through the city forms or on 757-514-7630, and the refuse holiday calendar shows Veterans Day as the day with no trash collection.

Special pick-up is a pile beside the can, not an appointment

Bulky material does not need to be scheduled. Everything goes beside the can no earlier than twenty four hours before the regular collection day, any item placed outside the can counts as a special collection, and household trash bags are not collected as special pick-up. Piles are capped at twelve cubic yards, about six feet by six feet by nine feet, tree limbs have to be under six feet long and no more than twenty four inches in diameter, and a household gets up to twelve special pick-ups a service year at no charge from July 1 to June 30.

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Suffolk households self haul through the city's own events rather than a transfer station. The Recycling Drive and Tire Amnesty Day runs through the year at Public Works Operations, 800 Carolina Road, with the next event listed as November 14, 2026 from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM, and it takes tires up to twenty two inches without rims with a Suffolk ID, household hazardous waste with an ID, batteries, cardboard, computers, cordless tools, electronics, flat screen televisions, small furniture, clothing, glass, paper, plastic bags, plant pots, aluminium and tin cans and scrap metal. Televisions with tubes are refused there and may go out with the regular trash instead. The city also lists standing alternative routes: Butler Paper Recycling on Newport Street for paper and cardboard, Arzillo Recycling on Portsmouth Boulevard for scrap metal under five feet long, TerraCycle by mail for hard to recycle items, Goodwill and Best Buy for electronics and clothing, ecoATM machines for phones and tablets, grocery stores, Lowe's and the Suffolk Public Library for plastic bags, the library or SPSA for batteries, and the library for ink cartridges.

worth knowing.

Bulk junk removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Suffolk.

How much does bulk junk removal cost in Suffolk?

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.

How does Suffolk special pick-up work?

The accepted list names appliances, boxes, debris, furniture, mattresses and yard waste, piles are limited to twelve cubic yards, tree limbs must be under six feet long and no more than twenty four inches in diameter, and household trash bags are not collected as special pick-up.

How is refuse service billed in Suffolk?

The cost of refuse collection is billed twice each year on the real estate tax bill, and the city collects refuse weekly from the city issued curbside can. Residents can order a can, schedule repairs, report missed collections or reserve a fourteen cubic yard roll-off container by calling 757-514-7630 or emailing the refuse request address, and the holiday calendar shows Veterans Day as the day with no trash collection while Columbus Day and Election Day bring no schedule change.Official guidance

What can go in a special pick-up pile?

Do I still have to separate trash and recycling?
