Heavy Trash Removal

Function

• Heavy trash removal is a service offered to dispose of large or heavy, including furniture, trees or appliances.

Time Frame

• The time frame for heavy trash removal varies by city or town, but most allow for the service at least every other month.

Considerations

• Some cities and towns include a heavy trash removal service as part of the waste removal service, so check with your service provider to find out the regulations and information. If your local government does not offer the service, you need to take the heavy trash to the landfill on your own or hire a company to do it for you.

Warning

• You cannot dispose of items prohibited during regular trash pickup, including chemical waste, during heavy trash removal unless specifically allowed by the waste removal service.

Misconceptions

• Putting heavy trash out at your curb is not a guarantee of pickup. Trash disposal companies won't pick up prohibited items, and these items vary by city or town.
