Alpharetta, GA: bulky pickup, appliances & disposal
Qualifying City of Alpharetta residential sanitation accounts receive up to two bulky items per regular pickup week when requested at least 72 hours in advance.
Quick answer
Residential bulky pickup is included in qualifying City trash service, but must be requested at least 72 hours before the regular pickup day; no more than two items per week.
The linked municipality or service provider describes this local program. Eligibility depends on the exact service address and property type.
Request your bulky pickup
The City includes qualifying bulky-item service in its residential trash program contracted with Republic Services. Residents must submit the City’s bulky-waste request at least 72 hours before the regular collection day and identify exactly what will be collected.
Maximum: two bulky items per week. The City’s published form does not establish a larger curbside pile entitlement. Confirm mattress/appliance preparation and whether your home is included in the City collection contract before set-out.
What belongs in bulky pickup?
Verify whether the specific furniture item is part of a recurring curbside entitlement, a special booked stop, or a quoted haul-away service.
Ask whether the provider requires wrapping, a recycling appointment or a separate charge. Local bed-bug and mattress-recycling rules may apply.
Refrigerant-containing appliances and large metal goods can require special collection. Confirm safe preparation; do not release refrigerant yourself.
Do not add batteries, paint, chemicals or televisions to an unconfirmed pile. These may require a separate recycling or household hazardous-waste service.
Fees, facilities and exclusions
Never rely on the fee for ordinary cart service as the price for a bulky stop. Ask the responsible provider for any included annual allowance, per-item fee, minimum callout and charges for overweight loads.
If your item is excluded, ask about an authorized transfer station, reuse program or material-specific collection. Confirm public access, hours and accepted items before transporting it; a municipal recycling depot may not accept household furniture.
Before you leave it curbside
- Check your address is inside the service boundary, not simply the same postal city.
- Separate household furniture, appliances, building debris and chemicals.
- Keep sidewalks, drainage, mailboxes and access ramps clear.
- If an appointment is required, save the confirmation; otherwise verify the normal pickup day.
