Yes, and it's call 480-350-4311 for pricing or to schedule a pickup — tempe residential solid waste customers receive bulk trash and green organics collection every other month for items that do not fit in regular trash containers. Holidays observed during the week will not affect your collection schedule. The amount of material is limited to 10 cubic yards: the size of a small SUV. A few things to know: trash and green organics must be separated into two distinct piles and placed four feet apart; all materials must be four feet away from any solid waste container, fire hydrant, gas meter, telephone or utility boxes. Residents may request a special bulk trash or green organics pickup outside their regular schedule for a fee. If that timing doesn't work, we can usually come tomorrow.

No, sorry — we can't take a mattress with bed bugs. Same goes for anything soiled with bodily fluids, badly water damaged or moldy, or contaminated with chemicals. It's not us being fussy: an infested mattress would put everything else in the truck at risk, and it can't be recycled or donated either. Normal wear is completely fine. Sagging, coffee stains, pet hair, a tired-looking cover — we pick those up every day. If you're not sure, send us a photo before you book and we'll tell you straight away.

No. Almost all our pickups are curbside — put the mattress out by 8am on your pickup day and we'll take it whether you're home or not. We'll text you when we're about thirty minutes out so you know it's been done. If you can't get it outside, in-home pickup is available for an extra fee. If something changes on the day, call (720) 263-6094 and we'll move it.

Usually the next day. Book by 5pm and we can normally come tomorrow. If you want a specific day or a tighter window, give it 24 to 48 hours — weekends fill up first. That's the real difference between us and waiting for the city: their pickup runs on its own schedule and it's call 480-350-4311 for pricing or to schedule a pickup, so if you're moving out or a new bed is being delivered, the wait tends to matter more than the price. You'll see live availability for Tempe in the booking form.
