Forest Grove, OR: bulk pickup & large-item disposal
For the upcoming November 7, 2026 City cleanup, confirm WM account eligibility and bring no more than three qualifying items.
Quick answer
The Forest Grove fall event has two different parts: November 2–6 permits up to six extra garbage bags on the regular day, while the November 7 bulky-item drop-off allows up to three single items for qualifying current WM customers with proof of residency.
November 2–6 extra bags are curbside; November 7 bulky items are self-hauled to B Street by qualifying current WM customers.
Verified local service instructions
Forest Grove's City-Wide Cleanup distinguishes extra curbside bags from a separate resident-only bulky-item drop-off at the B Street Transfer Station.
For 2026, eligible WM customers may set out up to six extra bags on November 2–6 and bring up to three single bulky items to the November 7 drop-off (9 a.m.–2 p.m.) with proof of eligibility; this is not a year-round free bulk curbside allowance.
Source checked for this staging update on October 11, 2026. Always confirm that the street address and dwelling qualify, and confirm the item and collection date before setout.
How to arrange collection
- Check the service account. The extra-bag curbside collection is November 2–6, 2026; the separate bulky self-haul date is November 7, 9 a.m.–2 p.m.
- Request the right pickup. For the upcoming November 7, 2026 City cleanup, confirm WM account eligibility and bring no more than three qualifying items.
- Confirm the details. For a current furniture pickup, ask the named hauler about routine service rather than relying on the one-day event.
What can go in the pickup?
The City excludes construction debris and hazardous waste from that event; refrigerant-bearing appliances require appropriate handling.
November 7 accepts up to three individual qualifying items at B Street; it is not curbside. 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
For the November 7 event, qualifying WM customers bring items themselves to B Street Transfer Station with proof of residency. Ordinary year-round disposal follows separate WM/Metro rules.
Exact household charges, weight and item-preparation requirements can differ by property type or account. Do not use a nearby city’s pricing for Forest Grove.
