Anaheim Bulky Item Pickup: What Residents Should Know
Anaheim provides a residential bulky-item collection option for qualifying materials. Understanding the city program first can help you decide whether curbside collection or private removal fits the project.

Municipal collection and private removal are different service models.
CURRENT PROGRAM DETAILS
What Anaheim says about bulky-item pickup
The City of Anaheim currently describes three free bulky-item pickups per household per calendar year, with up to 20 items per pickup. Items are placed at the curb, and Republic Services does not enter homes for this service.
VERIFY BEFORE YOU SCHEDULE
Program rules can change. Check the City of Anaheim's current bulky-item page before placing items at the curb.
When private removal is different
Private removal can address needs that curbside collection does not, such as carrying items out of a home, handling a larger mixed-item project, dealing with stairs or difficult access, or coordinating a cleanout around a preferred schedule. The right choice depends on the actual project.
Before you choose an option
Check placement
Understand where qualifying items must be placed for municipal collection.
Consider the labor
If items are inside or difficult to move, compare the project against what curbside service provides.
