Bellevue residents can schedule bulk pickups through Republic Services for appliances and furniture. Factoria Transfer Station accepts bulk waste for a fee.
Bellevue residents have multiple options for disposing of bulky items too large for regular carts. Republic Services offers on-call bulky waste pickup for furniture, mattresses, appliances (fridges require Freon removal tag), water heaters, and similar items. Fees apply per item ($20 to $75 typical) and pickups are scheduled by calling 425-452-6932 at least 3 business days in advance. King County's Factoria Recycling and Transfer Station at 13800 SE 32nd Street accepts self-hauled bulk waste, with fees by weight ($160 per ton garbage minimum). Hazardous materials (paints, solvents, batteries, electronics) are NOT accepted in regular garbage. Use the King County Hazardous Waste Program drop-off at the Factoria station's Wastemobile events. Electronics recycling is free via Washington E-Cycle at participating retailers. Illegal dumping on public or private property is a gross misdemeanor under Bellevue City Code 8.04.220 carrying fines up to 5,000 dollars plus cleanup costs. Annual neighborhood Clean Sweep events provide free bulk disposal days in spring.
