City collection There is no city bulky collection in unincorporated South Hill, so a couch either goes out through the franchise hauler if it offers a bulky service or travels to a county transfer station as garbage. The county publishes the hauler service areas and the transfer station rates but not a curbside bulky item programme, and bulky terms are set by each franchise hauler, so confirm with LeMay or Murrey's for the address and confirm the transfer station charge before hauling a couch.
City collection Pierce County does not name mattresses on the material pages read, so bedding has to be confirmed as a garbage load at a transfer station or with the franchise hauler. No county page retained for South Hill lists a mattress route or a mattress fee, so confirm with the franchise hauler or with the Hidden Valley Transfer Station on (253) 847-7555 before the bedding is moved.
City collection The county publishes a full appliance list, from a free appliance yard in Spanaway that takes refrigerators at no cost to the transfer stations and recyclers that charge for refrigerant units. From $30 for for an appliance containing refrigerant at Better PC Recycle, with $65 at the Hidden Valley and Purdy transfer stations and no charge at Appliance NW, which takes all appliances including refrigerators at no cost. Residents of Pierce County using the listed routes; Calbag Metals and Radius Recycling take metal appliances, with refrigerators and freezers needing their compressors removed at Calbag, and McClendon Hardware takes hot water heaters only.
City collection Bulky loads travel to a county transfer station as residential garbage, with a published minimum charge under 400 pounds and a per ton rate above it. From $39.06 for minimum charge for 400 pounds or less at the Hidden Valley, Prairie Ridge and Purdy transfer stations, with $195.32 per ton above 400 pounds, plus Washington State's 3.6 percent refuse tax, under rates effective March 1 2026. Pierce County residents taking residential loads to the county transfer stations; commercial customers may only use the Hidden Valley, Purdy and Tacoma Recovery and Transfer facilities, and Prairie Ridge takes no commercial loads.
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
Will the city take it?
South Hill is unincorporated, so there is no city hall to call about a sofa. Pierce County runs the system instead. Curbside garbage, recycling and yard waste come from the franchise hauler for the address, which is LeMay Pierce County Refuse for the 98375 side and the part of 98373 south of 112th Street and Murrey's Disposal for 98374 and the part of 98373 north of it, and the county tells residents to ring the hauler rather than the county for carts, billing and service. For everything too big for a cart the county runs six transfer stations and drop boxes, with the Hidden Valley station on Meridian Avenue in Puyallup as the one closest to South Hill, open every day and taking garbage, yard waste, recycling, e-waste and motor oil at published rates with a 400 pound minimum band. Appliances have their own list of routes, from a free appliance yard in Spanaway that takes refrigerators at no cost to the transfer stations, which charge a refrigerant fee, and hazardous waste is free at Hidden Valley twice a week.
There is no city bulky collection in unincorporated South Hill, so a couch either goes out through the franchise hauler if it offers a bulky service or travels to a county transfer station as garbage.
City cost & eligibility
The county publishes the hauler service areas and the transfer station rates but not a curbside bulky item programme, and bulky terms are set by each franchise hauler, so confirm with LeMay or Murrey's for the address and confirm the transfer station charge before hauling a couch.
When & how
Ask the franchise hauler for the address whether bulky furniture is collected, or take the sofa to the Hidden Valley Transfer Station at 17925 Meridian Ave E in Puyallup, open seven days a week from 8 a.m. to 5:45 p.m.
Get it ready
Keep the item clear of the cart and of cars and other objects on collection day, because the county warns that a cart or pile too close to obstacles may not be collected, and expect a garbage charge at the transfer station with the state refuse tax added.
Pierce County does not name mattresses on the material pages read, so bedding has to be confirmed as a garbage load at a transfer station or with the franchise hauler.
City cost & eligibility
No county page retained for South Hill lists a mattress route or a mattress fee, so confirm with the franchise hauler or with the Hidden Valley Transfer Station on (253) 847-7555 before the bedding is moved.
When & how
Call the hauler for the address or the Hidden Valley Transfer Station first, then use the confirmed route, with the transfer station open seven days a week from 8 a.m. to 5:45 p.m.
Get it ready
Keep the mattress dry and bag it in wet weather, take the frame and headboard off because they are separate pieces, and expect any load over 400 pounds to move to the per ton rate at the transfer station.
The county publishes a full appliance list, from a free appliance yard in Spanaway that takes refrigerators at no cost to the transfer stations and recyclers that charge for refrigerant units.
City cost & eligibility
From $30 for for an appliance containing refrigerant at Better PC Recycle, with $65 at the Hidden Valley and Purdy transfer stations and no charge at Appliance NW, which takes all appliances including refrigerators at no cost. Residents of Pierce County using the listed routes; Calbag Metals and Radius Recycling take metal appliances, with refrigerators and freezers needing their compressors removed at Calbag, and McClendon Hardware takes hot water heaters only.
When & how
Choose from the published routes: Appliance NW at 20015 Mountain Highway E. in Spanaway, Better PC Recycle at 2608 104th St Ct S in Lakewood, Calbag Metals in Tacoma, Radius Recycling in Tacoma, or the Hidden Valley Transfer Station in Puyallup.
Get it ready
Empty and clean the unit, secure or remove the doors, and confirm whether the unit holds refrigerant first because that decides the route and the charge: free at Appliance NW, a charge at Better PC Recycle, and a higher charge at the transfer stations, while Calbag requires compressors to be removed before it will take a refrigerator or freezer.
The Hidden Valley Transfer Station takes e-waste, and the county recycling menu lists televisions among the electronics it indexes, but no television fee or acceptance detail is published on the retained pages.
City cost & eligibility
The county names e-waste at the Hidden Valley station and lists televisions in the recycling menu category, but it publishes no television fee or size limit, so confirm with the station on (253) 847-7555 or the menu before the set is moved.
When & how
Take the set to the Hidden Valley Transfer Station at 17925 Meridian Ave E in Puyallup, which is open seven days a week from 8 a.m. to 5:45 p.m. and accepts e-waste, after confirming the fee and the accepted screen types.
Get it ready
Keep the screen whole and dry and wipe anything that stores data, keep it out of the recycling cart, and confirm the fee before travelling because the transfer station charges by material and adds the state refuse tax.
E-waste is accepted at the Hidden Valley Transfer Station, and the county menu indexes computers, monitors, printers, scanners and toner cartridges, with no published fee.
City cost & eligibility
The county accepts e-waste at Hidden Valley and lists the device types in its menu, but no electronics fee is published, so confirm at (253) 847-7555 before a load of devices is taken in.
When & how
Take the devices to the Hidden Valley Transfer Station at 17925 Meridian Ave E in Puyallup, open seven days a week from 8 a.m. to 5:45 p.m., or use a retailer route such as Best Buy, which the county lists for fee based haul away of large appliances and smaller electronics.
Get it ready
Wipe stored data from computers and drives, keep power supplies and cables with the device, keep electronics out of the recycling cart, and separate batteries because the county routes them through its household hazardous waste drop-off instead.
Construction material is not a curbside item, the county menu indexes carpet, drywall, fencing, pallets and remodeling debris as their own category, and it travels to a transfer station as garbage.
City cost & eligibility
The county publishes transfer station garbage rates but no separate construction debris rate, and it charges appliances and other unusual material differently, so confirm the load and the charge with the station on (253) 847-7555 before a project trip.
When & how
Take the load to the Hidden Valley Transfer Station at 17925 Meridian Ave E in Puyallup, open seven days a week from 8 a.m. to 5:45 p.m., and expect the residential garbage rate unless the station tells you otherwise.
Get it ready
Keep construction material out of the curbside carts, separate any material the county recycles from the garbage load, note that a load containing noxious weeds or invasive species such as blackberries or ivy carries an additional fee, and remember that cheques are not accepted at the station.
Exercise equipment appears only as a category in the county recycling menu, with no destination or fee published, so the item has to be confirmed.
City cost & eligibility
The county menu groups exercise equipment with appliances, but no destination page or rate was retained, so confirm with the franchise hauler or with the Hidden Valley Transfer Station on (253) 847-7555 whether the machine goes as garbage, as scrap metal or through an appliance recycler.
When & how
Call the hauler for the address or the transfer station before moving the machine, then use the confirmed route.
Get it ready
Strip the console and any loose weights so the frame is as light as possible, fold the deck where the manufacturer allows it, and expect a load over 400 pounds to move to the per ton rate at the transfer station.
Bulky loads travel to a county transfer station as residential garbage, with a published minimum charge under 400 pounds and a per ton rate above it.
City cost & eligibility
From $39.06 for minimum charge for 400 pounds or less at the Hidden Valley, Prairie Ridge and Purdy transfer stations, with $195.32 per ton above 400 pounds, plus Washington State's 3.6 percent refuse tax, under rates effective March 1 2026. Pierce County residents taking residential loads to the county transfer stations; commercial customers may only use the Hidden Valley, Purdy and Tacoma Recovery and Transfer facilities, and Prairie Ridge takes no commercial loads.
When & how
Take the load to the Hidden Valley Transfer Station at 17925 Meridian Ave E in Puyallup, open seven days a week from 8 a.m. to 5:45 p.m., or to another county station, and confirm any curbside bulky service with the franchise hauler separately.
Get it ready
Weigh the load mentally against the 400 pound band, keep noxious weeds and invasive species out because they carry an extra fee, leave commercial material at home unless the load is going to Hidden Valley, Purdy or Tacoma, and bring a credit or debit card because cheques are not accepted.
South Hill is unincorporated, so there is no municipal collection contract. Pierce County publishes the franchise areas and tells residents to contact their hauler directly for billing, a smaller garbage cart or service setup. LeMay Pierce County Refuse covers Graham west of Highway 160 and Meridian, Midland, Parkland, Spanaway, and the Puyallup zip codes 98373 south of 112th Street and 98375, while Murrey's Disposal covers Graham east of Highway 160 and Meridian plus the Puyallup zip codes 98371, 98372, 98373 north of 112th Street and 98374. The county's own tip is to keep the cart clear of cars and other objects, because a cart that is too close may not be collected at all.
Residents can take garbage, recycling and yard waste to six county transfer stations and drop boxes, and the Hidden Valley station at 17925 Meridian Ave E in Puyallup is open seven days a week from 8 a.m. to 5:45 p.m. taking garbage, yard waste, recycling, e-waste and motor oil. The rates effective March 1 2026 put a garbage load at the Hidden Valley, Prairie Ridge and Purdy stations at a minimum charge for 400 pounds or less and a per ton rate above that, with Washington State's 3.6 percent refuse tax added. Appliances and other unusual items can cost more, credit and debit are preferred with cash accepted and cheques refused, and any load containing noxious weeds or invasive species such as blackberries or ivy carries an extra fee. Commercial customers may only use Hidden Valley, Purdy or the Tacoma centre.
Appliances and chemicals have their own published routes
The county publishes a page of appliance routes rather than one answer. Appliance NW at 20015 Mountain Highway E. in Spanaway takes all appliances at no cost including refrigerators, Better PC Recycle in Lakewood takes washers, dryers, microwaves and stoves and charges a fee for units with refrigerants, Calbag Metals and Radius Recycling in Tacoma take metal appliances with Calbag requiring compressors to be removed before it takes a refrigerator or freezer, McClendon Hardware takes hot water heaters only, and the Hidden Valley and Purdy transfer stations charge a higher fee for appliances with refrigerants. Hazardous waste is free at Hidden Valley on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 8 a.m. to noon and 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. and at the Tacoma centre Friday to Monday from 8 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., covering aerosols, cleaners, antifreeze, automotive fluids, batteries, cooking oil up to 5 gallons, gasoline up to 5 gallons, motor oil up to 5 quarts, oil based paints, paint thinner, pesticides, fluorescent bulbs and pool chemicals.
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.

Arrange it

How does a couch leave a South Hill home?+

The county lists LeMay Pierce County Refuse for 98375 and the part of 98373 south of 112th Street, and Murrey's Disposal for 98374 and the part of 98373 north of it, and bulky item terms are set by each hauler rather than by the county.

Where can a South Hill mattress go?+
