Apple Valley, CA Trash & Recycling: Bulk Item Disposal (2026)

Disposal of large items in the Town of Apple Valley - furniture, mattresses, appliances and similar bulky goods - is handled through the franchise hauler Burrtec rather than at the regular cart collection. The Town directs residents to contact Burrtec directly at (760) 245-8607 for bulky-item pickup, and Burrtec lists 'Curbside Bulky Item Pick-up' as part of its Apple Valley residential service. Burrtec's residential program for the Town also includes Electronic Waste Collection, Christmas Tree Recycling, Frail/Handicap Pull-Out Service and Special Collection Events. The Town's public pages do not publish a specific free annual allotment (for example, a set number of items or pickups per year) for bulky collection, so residents should confirm how many items are included, any size or weight limits, and whether extra charges apply when scheduling with Burrtec. Dumping bulky items on vacant lots, in the desert or in alleys is illegal and is targeted by the Town's illegal-dumping reporting program and nuisance code; appliances and large debris left on property can also be cited as blight. For appliances containing refrigerants and for electronics, use Burrtec's e-waste and special-collection options rather than placing them in a cart. Confirm scheduling, limits and any fees directly with Burrtec.
