Bulk Collection criteria

There is a one-time bulk collection in the Fall. Items collected are household items, including sofas, chairs, tables, carpeting, dishwashers, washing machines, dryers, ovens, barbecue grills and toys. The following items are excluded from pickup: items weighing over 200 pounds, leaves, rocks and stones, stumps, logs, brush, slate, concrete, motor vehicles or their components (batteries, tires, wheels, etc.), building materials, construction trash, metal pipe and barrels, recyclables or hazardous materials, and appliances containing freon (refrigerators, freezers and air conditioners).

Items to be picked up must be placed neatly at the curb by 6 a.m. of the scheduled pickup day. Once a street has been completed, the Department of Public Works will not return to that street.

Permitted dropoffs are limited to 6 per year with each dropoff being no larger than a loaded pickup truck. No commercial vehicles are permitted to drop-off at the Recycling Center. To obtain a permit, contact 732-294-2160.
