How the local system works
The three-stream collection system covers regular household waste. Large furniture, appliances, hazardous products and renovation debris should be checked in Eco360's sorting guide and current Mobile Eco-Depot schedule.
Mattress and box-spring disposal
Mattress acceptance can be limited to designated bulky-waste or depot routes. Confirm the event or facility before transporting a mattress or box spring.
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
Furniture may be accepted through a Mobile Eco-Depot or another approved disposal option, subject to event limits. Reusable furniture should be pre-approved by the receiving organization.
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, electronics and refrigerant units are separated from ordinary waste. Eco360's guide identifies the proper depot or stewardship program.
Do not cut refrigerant lines or place batteries, fuel, food or household chemicals inside an appliance.
Drywall and renovation debris
Construction and demolition material has its own facility rules and is not regular curbside bag waste. Sort wood, drywall, metal and hazardous products.
Older drywall, texture coat, flooring and insulation may require an asbestos assessment before disturbance or disposal.
Does your property type change the answer?
Apartment and commercial properties may use private collection. Residents should ask management whether they are eligible for municipal or Eco360 residential services.
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.
