Norfolk County does not offer bulk pickup. Each municipality runs its own bulk program — some free, others require scheduled appointment or sticker. Mattresses and textiles are banned from disposal statewide.

Programs vary: Quincy offers free curbside bulk pickup by appointment through DPW; Brookline requires a purchased sticker; Weymouth and Braintree schedule by call-in; Dedham uses town transfer station drop-off.
