Florida trash & bulky-item guides

Browse 18 reviewed city guides, then use the local page for the actual collection schedule, limits and service eligibility.

What changes across Florida

Florida bulky-item service is set locally by cities, counties and contracted haulers. Florida DEP says every county has a household hazardous-waste program, which may use permanent facilities, collection events or both. That makes the local city guide the right starting point for furniture and appliances, while county programs are often the better route for chemicals.

Important: A state resource does not create one statewide couch, mattress or appliance pickup rule. The city, county, HOA or contracted hauler serving the address usually controls curbside bulky collection.
