Full Breakdown
The county's Coastal Waste service gives each household six bulk pickups a year, up to ten items per collection, for furniture, mattresses, and white goods with refrigerant removed. Schedule bulk service with Coastal at (352) 540-6457 and set items curbside on your assigned day, not days early. Construction and demolition debris is not part of bulk pickup - haul it, along with major renovation and storm debris, to the Hernando County Northwest Landfill at 14450 Landfill Road, Brooksville, open Monday through Saturday. After hurricanes, the county runs separate storm-debris collection. Illegal roadside dumping is a state crime and a recurring problem on rural lots.
Violations & Fines
Dumping litter or bulk waste on roadsides or vacant land violates Florida's Litter Law and county code, with fines that climb by volume. Setting bulk items out days early can draw a citation.
