Levittown, PA Trash & Recycling: Bulk Item Disposal (2026)

Bulk item disposal varies dramatically across Bucks County's 54 municipalities depending on hauler contract. Some township contracts include weekly bulk with standard service (one large item per week); others require scheduling appointments and may charge additional fees ($25-$75 per bulk pickup). Eligible bulk items typically include: furniture (couches, mattresses, chairs), large appliances (refrigerators, washers, dryers — with EPA-regulated refrigerants professionally removed first per 40 CFR Part 82), and carpeting. Excluded from standard bulk: construction and demolition debris (C&D requires roll-off dumpster), tires, hazardous materials (paint, solvents, batteries, chemicals), electronics (covered separately under PA Covered Device Recycling Act 108 of 2010), and yard waste (separate stream in most municipalities). The Bucks County Planning Commission Recycling Office hosts multiple annual household hazardous waste (HHW) collection events throughout the year at various sites including the Bucks County Technical School in Fairless Hills and other rotating locations. Electronics collection events are held separately since TVs, computers, and monitors are banned from PA landfills under Act 108 of 2010. Bristol Township, Bensalem, and Middletown operate their own transfer stations with additional drop-off options. Illegal dumping is prosecuted under 18 Pa.C.S. §6501 (scattering rubbish) and the PA Solid Waste Management Act (35 P.S. §6018.101) with substantial fines.
