How the local system works
The City's collection service handles regular residential waste within its set-out limits. Eastview Landfill receives self-hauled material and directs recyclable or special items into separate areas.
Mattress and box-spring disposal
Mattresses and box springs are bulky waste and should be declared at the landfill. Confirm current charges and whether each unit is counted separately.
Keep the mattress dry while you confirm the route. A box spring may count as another item, and contaminated mattresses can be refused.
Couches and large furniture
Damaged furniture can be taken to the landfill as an appropriate waste load. Donation is useful only when the item is clean, safe and pre-approved by the recipient.
Measure large pieces before arranging transport and tell a hauler about stairs, elevators or long carries before accepting a quote.
Fridges, freezers and appliances
Appliances, scrap metal, electronics and refrigerant equipment should be kept separate so facility staff can direct them correctly.
Do not cut refrigerant lines or place batteries, fuel, food or household chemicals inside an appliance.
Drywall and renovation debris
Construction waste needs a facility route and may be charged by weight or material. Separate clean wood, metal, concrete and mixed garbage where possible.
Older drywall, texture coat, flooring and insulation may require an asbestos assessment before disturbance or disposal.
Does your property type change the answer?
Apartments often have private bins and haulers. Tenants need building approval before moving large items into a collection area.
Before you pay a junk-removal company
- Confirm whether the exact item already has a municipal or regional route.
- Check booking, set-out, quantity, wrapping and property-eligibility rules.
- Compare facility charges, vehicle access, fuel and lifting help with a full-service quote.
- Tell the company about heavy material, stairs, elevators and regulated items before accepting the price.
