Mattresses, furniture, and many appliances — city bulk or drop-off, not the regular cart.
Official source:
City of Atlanta (not Fulton County) scheduled bulk collection is booked through ATL311, the SWS tool, or 404-546-0311. Up to 12 free collections per year; max 8 cubic yards on your weekly collection day. Over 12 collections incurs a fee (~$349.96). Mattresses and bulk furniture use this program.
Household hazardous waste — used oil, paint, propane, batteries, and chemicals.
Official source:
City of Atlanta has no municipal HHW drop-off facility. Used motor oil needs CHaRM or certified collection. Use CHaRM or other verified HHW partners. Oil-based paint can be solidified with absorbent per city guidance before limited trash disposal — confirm current rules on atlantaga.gov HHW page.
TVs, computers, and electronics. Usually banned from trash and the blue bin.
Official source:
Small electronics are accepted at Atlanta Recycles Day (3rd Saturday Feb–Dec, 9 a.m.–12 p.m., Greenbriar Mall). For additional e waste mixed or larger loads, use CHaRM or other fee-based partners. Bulk collection is not documented for e-waste.
Construction debris, concrete, and remodel waste — transfer station or roll-off.
Official source:
Limited homeowner debris may fit scheduled bulk collection (max 8 cy; 12 free/year via ATL311). Larger contractor C&D loads need a private hauler. Route paint and chemicals to CHaRM or proper HHW partners.
Yard waste, food scraps, and cooking oil where the city has a separate stream.
Official source:
City of Atlanta handles yard waste through regular collection programs. Follow set-out rules; keep yard waste out of bulk piles and partner HHW loads.
Cart recycling, store film take-back, and foam rules — not a second bulky program.
Official source:
Atlanta 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 Atlanta — ATL311 scheduled bulk collection is the official Atlanta 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.
