where you live, your city or township may offer bulk waste pickup services.</p>\r\n\r\n<blockquote>\r\n<p>Most areas require you to schedule your pickup and pay for it ahead of time, while some may have designated dates and times for bulk waste pickup.</p>\r\n</blockquote>\r\n\r\n<p>The traditional way to schedule these services is to purchase a sticker at city hall or other providers indicated by your local jurisdiction.&nbsp;</p>\r\n\r\n<p>Most pickups occur within 3 business days and your <a href=\"https://www.hometowndumpsterrental.com/blog/free-appliance-and-furniture-removal\" title=\"Who Will Pick Up Used Appliances or Furniture for Free?\">bulk furniture or appliance</a> must be placed at the road with the sticker visible to be picked up.</p>\r\n\r\n<p>A more modern way to schedule these services is to fill out a form online and pay for it then.</p>\r\n\r\n<p>This way typically does not require a sticker to be placed on the item that is being picked up as long as payment has been received and the pick-up has been scheduled.</p>\r\n\r\n<p>Failing to follow your area's requirements and leaving your items at the road without a sticker or without scheduling a pick-up can subject you to a fine.</p>\r\n\r\n<p><a name=\"trash-service\"></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h2><strong>Municipal Trash Service</strong></h2>\r\n\r\n<p>Some weekly trash pick-up services also offer bulk waste pick-up, but not all do.</p>\r\n\r\n<blockquote>\r\n<p>You typically have to be a customer to qualify for these services, but many companies only offer these services in certain areas.</p>\r\n</blockquote>\r\n\r\n<p>Arranging these services is similar to the city collection programs and can be arranged by contacting your municipal trash service.</p>\r\n\r\n<p>It's important to be specific about what you plan on having picked up because different items may require different preparation.</p>\r\n\r\n<p>For example, items like <a href=\"https://www.hometowndumpsterrental.com/blog/how-to-get-rid-of-a-couch\" title=\"How to Get Rid Of a Couch\">couches</a> and <a href=\"https://www.hometowndumpsterrental.com/blog/mattress-disposal-options\" title=\"Mattress Disposal Options\">mattresses</a> that are fabric&nbsp;may need to be wrapped in plastic, <a href=\"https://www.hometowndumpsterrental.com/blog/how-to-get-rid-of-a-refrigerator\" title=\"How to Get Rid of a Refrigerator\">appliances containing freon</a> need to have the freon removed by a professional, long items may need to be cut down into smaller sections, etc.</p>\r\n\r\n<p>Not following instructions and having your bulk waste at the road for too long could result in fines from your city officials.</p>\r\n\r\n<p><a name=\"junk-removal\"></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h2><strong>Junk Removal</strong></h2>\r\n\r\n<p>One of the easiest ways to get rid of large and bulky items is to <a

removal crew (usually 2 people) will arrive prepared to remove your heavy items from wherever they are stored,&nbsp;so you don't have to do any of the heavy lifting.</p>\r\n\r\n<p><a

/>\r\n<p><a id=\"best-solution\"></a></p>\r\n\r\n<h2>Step 1: Determine the Best Disposal Solution for Your Trash</h2>\r\n\r\n<h3>Curbside Trash Collection</h3>\r\n\r\n<p>For your regular day-to-day trash, a weekly curbside trash collection service is the ideal solution.</p>\r\n\r\n<p>Your town or city may offer local trash pick-up services, and <a href=\"https://www.wm.com/us/en/home/residential-waste-recycling-pickup\" title=\"Waste Management Residential Pick-Up Services\">Waste Management</a> and <a href=\"https://www.republicservices.com/residents/solid-waste\" title=\"Republic Services Residential Pick-Up Services\">Republic Services</a> are two other very popular curbside pick-up companies that service the entire nation.</p>\r\n\r\n<p>Don't toss just anything into your curbside trash, though; be sure you first check with your pick-up services' rules and regulations to ensure you only put acceptable items into your trash bin.</p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Junk Removal Services</h3>\r\n\r\n<p>For small cleanup projects that produce more than your weekly trash bin can accommodate, <a href=\"https://www.hometowndumpsterrental.com/blog/junk-removal-101\" title=\"Junk Removal 101: A Guide to Junk Removal Services\">junk removal services</a> are likely the best and most cost-effective option.</p>\r\n\r\n<p>Junk removal companies offer a more all-inclusive service in which they load up your trash, junk, or debris for you, then haul it away to be separated and disposed of properly, i.e. donated, recycled, or taken to the landfill.</p>\r\n\r\n<p>Because of the additional labor junk removal services involve, they tend to be more expensive for larger, more involved cleanups, but are often quite cost-competitive for minor cleanups.</p>\r\n\r\n<p>For example, if you have a small pile of junk to get rid of, like an old toilet, broken chair, and a few bags of trash, a junk removal company will likely charge you somewhere around $100-$300 to dispose of it, depending on where you live.</p>\r\n\r\n<p>This amount of trash is not quite enough to make it worth renting a dumpster—which would cost $250-$450 on average for a 10 yard dumpster—unless you have a neighbor or friends/family who also have items to get rid of and may be willing to share the cost of the dumpster with you.</p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Dumpster Rental Services</h3>\r\n\r\n<p>For larger trash removal projects, like spring cleanings or similar home or company office cleanup projects, <a href=\"https://www.hometowndumpsterrental.com/blog/dumpster-rental-101\" title=\"Dumpster Rental 101: How to Rent a Dumpster\">dumpster rental</a> is likely the most cost-effective option.</p>\r\n\r\n<p>As previously mentioned, a 10 yard dumpster typically costs $250-$450 and is capable of accommodating a number of trash removal and cleanup projects.</p>\r\n\r\n<p>However, if your project is very large or you have heavy debris or bulky items to dispose of, a 20 yard dumpster (or a larger 30 or 40 yard dumpster) may be the better option.</p>\r\n\r\n<p>Dumpster companies are great at helping people choose the dumpster that's best for their project as long as they have adequate information to do so.</p>\r\n\r\n<p>When reaching out to dumpster rental companies, be sure you give them as much information about your project as possible so they can recommend the best dumpster size for your specific project.</p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Bag Dumpsters</h3>\r\n\r\n<p>Another option for trash disposal when you have three yards of debris or less is buying a bag dumpster, like <a href=\"https://www.thebagster.com/\" title=\"Waste Management's Bagster\">The Bagster by Waste Management</a>.</p>\r\n\r\n<p>These \"dumpsters\" are made using a strong yet lightweight tarp-like material and come with durable straps that enable the dumpster truck to pick it up and haul it away.</p>\r\n\r\n<p>However, keep in mind that three yards is not a lot of space, especially if you have bulky or oddly shaped items, and it may not be enough to complete your disposal.</p>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Learn more:</strong></p>\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li><a href=\"https://www.hometowndumpsterrental.com/blog/trash-disposal-showdown\" title=\"Trash Disposal Showdown: Junk
