Mobile disposal programs
Items that share the same official city or county source are grouped here. Alias items open this program section; core guides stay on their own page.
Bulky pickup in Mobile
Mattresses, furniture, and many appliances — city bulk or drop-off, not the regular cart.
Official source:
Mobile mattresss go with every-other-week residential trash — about 2 cubic yards (~15 bags). Excess: self-haul to landfill or paid city pickup (Public Works 251-208-4100). Keep HHW for collection events.
Household hazardous waste — used oil, paint, propane, batteries, and chemicals.
Official source:
Take motor oil to City of Mobile Household Hazardous Waste collection events — no permanent HHW facility. Events accept paint, fluids, pesticides, batteries, fluorescent tubes (not tires/electronics/appliances). Keep chemicals off trash piles.
TVs, computers, and electronics. Usually banned from trash and the blue bin.
Official source:
Mobile city recycling drop-offs accept small electronics in e-waste bins — not TVs. For e waste mixed/TVs, use city-listed private recyclers (fees may apply). Keep TVs out of recycling carts.
Construction debris, concrete, and remodel waste — transfer station or roll-off.
Official source:
Construction debris is not in the garbage cart. Use city-listed landfills such as Chastang Landfill (17045 Highway 43, Mt. Vernon) or private C&D. Route paint to HHW events.
Cart recycling, store film take-back, and foam rules — not a second bulky program.
Official source:
Mobile recycling carts do not want expanded polystyrene (EPS). White block foam, packing peanuts, and food trays are different streams. Grocery film/bag bins are not a foam drop-off. City of Mobile — Trash Pickup is the official Mobile program we verified — if that page only mentions plastic bags or film, treat block foam and food trays as bagged garbage unless it names a foam densifier. Clean peanuts may be reused at a shipper; starch peanuts are not EPS.
