Large items go through your city or Mid-Michigan Waste Authority program, not a county route. The City of Saginaw and MMWA set bulk-item rules; illegal dumping violates Michigan's Part 115 solid-waste law.
Saginaw County operates no bulk-item route. In the City of Saginaw, large items like furniture and mattresses are handled through the city's Rubbish Services on set terms. Saginaw Township and other Mid-Michigan Waste Authority communities publish bulk and excluded-item lists — appliances need refrigerant removed, and electronics, tires and household hazardous waste must go to designated drop-offs rather than the curb. Construction debris is never standard pickup. Dumping solid waste anywhere but a licensed facility is illegal under Part 115 of Michigan's Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act (MCL 324.11501 et seq.).
Illegal dumping is prohibited under NREPA Part 115 and local nuisance codes, carrying fines and cleanup liability. Setting bulk items out early or off-schedule can draw a municipal citation.
