Newport News trash & bulky-item rules

Newport News generally collects bulk waste on the same week/day as the biweekly recycling schedule. The maximum combined curbside set-out for bulk and vegetative waste is 6 cubic yards per collection day.

Who qualifies matters. Eligible City residential customers; collection calendar depends on address.

Furniture, mattresses and qualifying resident-generated remodeling material can use the bulk route. White goods require a separate appointment at 757-933-2311 and are typically collected on Wednesdays, limited to the first 28 callers.

The City schedules household hazardous waste events separately during the year. Chemicals, paint and other hazardous materials should be kept out of the regular bulk set-out.

Follow the Red/Yellow collection schedule, keep the combined bulk/vegetative set-out at 6 cubic yards or less, and schedule white goods separately. Bulk placement follows the City’s curbside timing rules and must not be blocked or mixed with yard waste.

1. Confirm the service address and the agency or hauler responsible for it.
2. Check whether the bulky route requires an appointment, assigned week, sticker, fee or volume limit.
