What each city guide covers

Putting junk on the curb without following your city's rules can get you fined, and the rules, fees and booking steps differ everywhere. Each city guide covers mattresses, couches and furniture, appliances (freon), TVs and electronics, and paint and household hazardous waste, with links to the official source for every option:

  1. Free or low-cost city bulk pickup. Often free, but you usually have to book it first.
  2. Drop-off sites (convenience centers, transfer stations, hazardous-waste facilities).
  3. Donation, if the item is clean and usable.
  4. Paid haul-away when you need it gone today.
