How to Throw Away Large Items
There are several ways to get rid of big trash items, though the condition of your household junk or debris will determine the best option. Generally, the materials listed above can either be:
Disposed
of using a dumpster rental, through your city’s curbside large item pickup service or at the local dump.
Recycled
through local facilities or government programs.
Donated
to local charities or nonprofit organizations.
If your items aren’t in good condition, the best thing you can do is find a local recycling facility that accepts them or dispose of them responsibly. For non-recyclable debris, renting a dumpster is an efficient, cost-effective bulk trash removal option. Always do your research on recycling and disposal regulations in your area before disposing of any of the above items.
