​Mesa Bulk Junk and Trash Pickup

Before scheduling make sure you know what they are willing to haul off; there are a lot of don'ts on their list, including appliances. If you need to get rid of any household appliances, even microwaves, you'll have to work with another program. A few other typical don'ts include, construction or landscape material, tires, light bulbs, plutonium, and other hazardous chemicals.

Aside from unacceptable items, keep in mind how much crap you are trying to get rid of because Mesa limits the load size to about 8 full garbage bags. More than that, and you could be looking at multiple pick up charges.

Bulk trash collection in Mesa is completely separate from the solid waste services you already pay for. It's a separate fee and you’ll need to call in advance to put yourself on their schedule. Their pick ups are pre-determined and limited so they work on a first come first served basis. Assuming you follow their preparation guidelines, you can expect a wait time of anywhere from a few days to a couple of weeks, before your pick up day.

Mesa has created a highly sophisticated map to help you determine when a pick up might be scheduled. You can view the map here. If you study the map carefully, you’ll see pick up days can be Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday depending on your location. I know that's a bit confusing, so in layman's terms, your pick up day could be any day. Got it?
