Quick answer for East Zorra-Tavistock

Oxford County’s annual large-item program explicitly accepts residential furniture, mattresses and box springs up to 45 kg per item. In East Zorra-Tavistock the 2026 collection was May 4–8 and HAS PASSED; do not set a mattress out now as though pickup were recurring. The county waste facility provides a year-round self-haul alternative for qualifying local waste.

1. What ordinary curbside collection covers

Oxford County administers weekly tagged garbage service; Thursday south of Braemar Sideroad and Friday north. Bags must have the county bag tag, weigh under 20 kg and be out by 7 a.m. Recycling questions are handled separately by Emterra for Circular Materials.

2. Regional landfill or transfer-station route

Oxford County Waste Management Facility is at 384060 Salford Road, Salford, for Oxford County residents and businesses. Arrive within posted hours and secure your loads; the gate closes 15 minutes before the nominal facility closing time.

3. Appliances, chemicals and special waste

Appliances, electronics, refrigerant units, chemicals and demolition debris are not part of the large-item curbside program. Sort material for the corresponding facility handling stream.

4. Charges, schedules and booking

Large-item seasonal curbside collection requires no bag tags. The county facility lists 2026 mixed-solid-waste tipping at $100/tonne with a $15 minimum; do not treat that as a per-item bulky collection charge.

What still needs a last check

Check the address-based calendar for any future annual collection and confirm unusual material with Oxford County before self-hauling.

Waste and recycling rules can vary by building type, address, operator and material. Large items should not be left at the curb unless your applicable collection program explicitly authorizes them. Facility acceptance is different from curbside acceptance.
