Bulk items (furniture, mattresses, appliances) are collected by DSNY on regular trash days with no separate appointment for most items. Mattresses and box springs must be sealed in a plastic mattress bag (available at hardware stores). Refrigerators and AC units with refrigerant require a CFC-removal appointment.
Request a CFC appointment via 311 or DSNY website for units containing refrigerant; DSNY removes and tags the unit before curbside pickup. Electronics (TVs, computers) are banned from curbside trash under the NY State Electronic Equipment Recycling and Reuse Act; use a drop-off or manufacturer mail-back.
Contact your local code enforcement office for specific penalty information.
