Bulk disposal throughout Hudson County requires advance scheduling with municipal DPW. Jersey City offers bulk pickup by appointment through SeeClickFix or DPW phone scheduling. Hoboken runs weekly bulk pickup on designated days. Hazardous materials, electronics, and appliances with refrigerant are excluded and must go to Hudson County Improvement Authority drop-off.
Hudson County municipalities each run their own bulk pickup programs rather than a single countywide system, though the Hudson County Improvement Authority (HCIA) operates the regional household hazardous waste (HHW) and e-waste drop-off in Kearny. Jersey City DPW Bulk Waste requires appointment scheduling through the SeeClickFix app or by calling 201-547-4400. Appointments typically available within 1 to 2 weeks. Accepted items include furniture, mattresses (bagged), rugs, and appliances with refrigerant certificate. Excluded: electronics, paint, batteries, tires, and construction debris. Hoboken offers weekly bulk pickup on Wednesdays with advance registration via the City's 311 system. Bayonne runs monthly bulk schedule by ward. Union City and West New York require appointment-based pickup. HCIA operates a permanent HHW facility at Koppers Coke Peninsula in Kearny, open Saturdays for paint, oils, pesticides, batteries, and electronics. Illegal dumping — particularly mattresses on streetcorners — is aggressively prosecuted in Jersey City with fines up to $5,000 and potential criminal charges.
Bulk items placed curbside without appointment: $100 to $500 citation. Illegal dumping in Jersey City: $500 to $5,000 fines plus potential 3rd degree criminal charges for large-scale dumping. Repeat offenders face escalating penalties and may be banned from bulk pickup service.
