Colorado Springs provides periodic bulk item disposal options through community cleanup events and its Citizens' Convenience Center (transfer station). Most private haulers also offer bulk item pickup for an additional fee. Large items like furniture, appliances, and mattresses cannot be placed at the curb for regular trash pickup without coordinating with your hauler. The city operates the Citizens' Convenience Center where residents can drop off bulk items, yard waste, and recyclables. Illegal dumping of bulk items is a code violation subject to fines.
Colorado Springs provides bulk item collection on a scheduled basis, either monthly or by appointment through public works. Eligible items include furniture, mattresses, and large appliances with refrigerant removed. Electronics and hazardous materials like paint or batteries are excluded and must go to designated drop-off facilities. Items must be placed curbside on the scheduled date. Excessive piles may require a special hauling fee. Construction debris is not eligible for standard bulk pickup.
Illegal dumping: $500 to $5,000 fines. Placing bulk items out before scheduled date may result in $50 to $200 code enforcement citation.
