Martinez, CA: bulk pickup & large-item disposal
Book one of the Republic bulky appointments specifically; the City’s larger nine-service list includes other benefits.
Quick answer
Eligible Martinez single-family Republic Services customers have two free annual bulky-item pickups—not nine. The City lists nine different supplemental services: four recycling/yard-waste collections, two landfill-waste collections, two bulky-item collections, and a pre-scheduled citywide cleanup day in June.
Martinez has two free bulky-item pickups within a group of nine different types of additional service.
How to arrange collection
- Check the service account. Eligible Martinez single-family accounts receive two bulky pickups within several distinct annual on-call services.
- Request the right pickup. Book one of the Republic bulky appointments specifically; the City’s larger nine-service list includes other benefits.
- Confirm the details. Write down the booked date, setout window, item restrictions and any total charge before arranging removal.
Schedule bulky pickup with Republic Services at 925-685-4711 at least three days in advance. The City includes mattresses, furniture, electronics, appliances and tires in its bulky-item list; get your appointment and item eligibility confirmed first.
What can go in the pickup?
Do not add nine together as a nine-bulky-pickup allowance; ask about apartment accounts and extra fees.
Use the city or hauler procedure above. Confirm whether the item counts toward an included allowance and whether an appointment is required.
Ask about a separate white-goods appointment, doors or refrigerant handling. Do not assume the furniture truck accepts it.
Keep these out of an ordinary bulky pile unless the source explicitly permits them; ask for a licensed or municipal specialty program.
Fees, limits and other disposal options
If the pickup does not cover your item, ask the Martinez service provider for a currently open authorized transfer, reuse or recycling option. No facility is recommended here without established acceptance and access details.
Exact household charges, weight and item-preparation requirements can differ by property type or account. Do not use a nearby city’s pricing for Martinez.
Apartment and multifamily options
For multifamily properties, complex owners may request three different on-call cleanup services (two landfill-waste, one recycling/green-waste); these are not the two single-family bulky appointments.
An eligible Martinez multifamily tenant can request one no-charge annual voucher from Republic Services for up to one cubic yard of regular solid waste at the Contra Costa Transfer and Recovery Station. Proof of residency is required. The voucher excludes appliances, electronic waste, hazardous waste and treated wood. Arrange it directly with Republic Services before hauling material.
