Summary

Bulky items like furniture, mattresses, appliances, and electronics are not put in curbside carts. Clark County residents request bulky-item collection or use the RecycleRight tool to find drop-off and transfer station options for large or special waste.

These county ordinances apply to unincorporated areas of Clark County. Incorporated cities within the county may have their own rules that take precedence over county-level regulations.

Look up local reuse, recycling and disposal options for specific items in the A-Z Directory. Request collection of bulky items, electronic waste and more.

Full Breakdown

Large items do not belong in the blue recycling cart or standard garbage cart. Clark County's RecycleRight online tool and app let residents look up local reuse, recycling, and disposal options for specific items in the A to Z directory and request collection of bulky items, electronic waste, and more. Appliances with refrigerants, mattresses, and construction debris typically go to a county transfer station or an authorized recycler rather than curbside. Household hazardous waste is handled through separate county programs, not regular collection. Contact the Solid Waste and Recycling Division for current options and fees.

Violations & Fines

Setting bulky or prohibited items at the curb without arranging collection can leave them uncollected; abandoning them on property or public land is enforced as illegal dumping or nuisance.
