High-intent Anaheim guides
Mattress, bulky, HHW, and e-waste — the city rules residents actually search.
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 Anaheim
Mattresses, furniture, and many appliances — city bulk or drop-off, not the regular cart.
Official source:
Anaheim households get three free bulky item pickups per calendar year through Republic Services, up to 20 items per pickup (furniture, appliances, etc.). Schedule at (714) 238-2444 or anaheim.net/republicservices before you need them (not an emergency move-out service). Place items at the curb on the scheduled date — crews do not enter homes.
Household hazardous waste — used oil, paint, propane, batteries, and chemicals.
Official source:
Do not trash HHW in Anaheim. Use Orange County’s free HHW Collection Centers (Anaheim 1071 N. Blue Gum Street is closest for many residents), Tuesday–Saturday 9 a.m.–3 p.m. Accepted materials include paint, batteries, automotive fluids, fluorescents, pesticides, and electronics. Transport ≤15 gal / 125 lb; do not mix wastes.
TVs, computers, and electronics. Usually banned from trash and the blue bin.
Official source:
Orange County residents (including Anaheim) drop HHW and e-waste free at any of four OC Waste & Recycling HHW Collection Centers — Anaheim (1071 N. Blue Gum), Huntington Beach, Irvine (6411 Oak Canyon), or San Juan Capistrano. Hours: 9 a.m.–3 p.m. Tuesday–Saturday (closed major holidays and rainy weather). Limit 15 gallons or 125 pounds per trip; containers ≤5 gallons.
Cart recycling, store film take-back, and foam rules — not a second bulky program.
Official source:
Anaheim 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 Anaheim — Bulky Item Collection is the official Anaheim 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.
