Lakewood provides bulk item pickup on regular collection day. Residents may set out furniture, appliances, and large items; Freon appliances require advance scheduling with the Refuse Division.
Lakewood offers weekly bulk item collection alongside regular trash. Items like furniture, mattresses, and non-Freon appliances can be placed at curb on normal collection day. Freon-containing appliances (refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners, dehumidifiers) must be scheduled in advance so certified technicians can remove refrigerant before disposal. Construction debris from contractor work is not accepted; residents doing small DIY projects may include limited quantities.
Unauthorized construction debris or hazardous waste: non-collection and possible 100 to 250 dollar citation. Unscheduled Freon appliances will not be collected.
