Book by 2pm at your pickup address for same-day pickup, or choose a future date at checkout. You arrange the move outside before pickup.
Know when they’ve been collected.
Get a text when your hauler is on the way and photos when the pickup is done. With everything outside and accessible, you don’t need to stay home.
You don’t need to guess how much space your furniture fills in a truck. Match each piece to the catalog, then add its quantity. Your total updates as you go.
Tables and chairs
Choose the table, then add each chair separately. Coffee tables, side tables and dining tables have their own options. A large or substantially heavy table has a different choice.
Dressers and mirrors
Match the dresser’s overall size. Add a separate dresser mirror as its own item if it is leaving too. Empty drawers and keep the belongings you want before moving the dresser outside.
Desks and bookshelves
Choose by construction, not height alone. A basic desk is different from a heavy desk with a substantial body. A tall, lightweight bookcase can still be a standard bookshelf. Empty it first.

Furniture is collected through the household bulk service, which takes two large items a collection and runs three times a year by appointment.
City cost & eligibility
The city publishes no per item rate for household bulk, so confirm the current terms with Public Works when the appointment is booked on 757-220-6140.
When & how
Book the appointment no later than noon on the Thursday before the collection day, then put the items at the curb before 7 a.m. on the collection day. Each household gets two large items per collection and three collections a year.
Get it ready
Keep the items at the curb rather than inside the property, and keep remodeling or building materials, car parts and toilets out of the pile because the bulk service refuses them. A piece that is still usable can be donated instead, and the city lists local charities that collect.
Yard debris rides the garbage collection day in bags or bundles, and other large household items go through the three times a year bulk appointment.
City cost & eligibility
The city publishes no rate for the bulk collection or the yard debris service, so confirm the current terms with Public Works on 757-220-6140.
When & how
Yard debris goes out on the garbage collection day without an appointment. Large household items need the bulk appointment booked by noon on the Thursday before the collection day.
Get it ready
Yard debris is limited to ten bags of leaves or grass clippings or ten bundles of sticks and limbs, tied with twine or boxed, with sticks under four feet long and under three inches in diameter, and loose piles are not collected. Keep the bulk pile inside the two item limit and clear of anything the city refuses.
The garbage and recycling carts go to the curb before 7 a.m. on the collection day, or the evening before, with the lids facing the street, and come back in after collection. Carts stay three feet apart and five feet from vehicles, trees, mailboxes, poles and fences, and go side by side rather than front to back.
Household bulk collection is by appointment only. The request has to be in by noon on the Thursday before the collection day, items go to the curb before 7 a.m. on that day, and each household is allowed two large items per collection and three collections a year.
Collection is automated and the crew does not leave the truck, so all garbage has to be inside the city cart. Items left beside the cart, including bagged extra garbage, are not collected.
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.
