Bulk items, such as mattresses, appliances, and furniture, will be collected on your normal garbage collection day.
You do not need to call in for a special collection unless you are requesting a large quantity of items to be disposed of and want city staff to review the amount to assure city collection of material. Please separate bulk items from your regular garbage as these items will be collected using a knuckle boom or rear loaded truck.
The City does not collect debris from building or contract work, which includes tires, shingles, concrete, masonry, rocks, dirt, stumps, logs, hazardous chemicals, paint, or sealed containers. These items should be disposed of in a complaint and appropriate manner by contacting the Alamance County landfill at (336)376-8902.
