Bulky pickup in Louisville
Mattresses, furniture, and many appliances — city bulk or drop-off, not the regular cart.
Official source:
Louisville Metro Large Item Pickup serves the Urban Services District only — schedule an appointment online for up to four large items once per week. Mattresses can also go free to the Waste Reduction Center at 636 Meriwether Ave (Bland St entrance) — up to four large items per day for residents. Outside the USD, contact your private hauler.
Household hazardous waste — used oil, paint, propane, batteries, and chemicals.
Official source:
Louisville Metro Haz Bin at 7501 Grade Lane accepts household hazardous materials free for Jefferson County residents, Tue–Sat 9:30 a.m.–4:00 p.m. Used motor oil accepted at Haz Bin. Latex paint is not accepted — dry latex for trash.
TVs, computers, and electronics. Usually banned from trash and the blue bin.
Official source:
Louisville Metro accepts mixed electronic waste free through WRC CyberCycle at 636 Meriwether Ave — up to three electronics items per day for Jefferson County residents. Do not put electronics on curbside Large Item when CyberCycle is the designated pathway. Wipe personal data before recycling computers/phones.
Construction debris, concrete, and remodel waste — transfer station or roll-off.
Official source:
Construction and demolition debris is not accepted at Haz Bin HHW. Large Item Pickup covers household large items, not contractor C&D loads. Hire a private C&D hauler for renovation debris; route paint and chemicals to Haz Bin separately.
Yard waste, food scraps, and cooking oil where the city has a separate stream.
Official source:
Louisville handles yard waste through regular city collection programs. Follow set-out rules for bags and bundles; keep yard waste out of Haz Bin HHW and Large Item piles when not appropriate.
Cart recycling, store film take-back, and foam rules — not a second bulky program.
Official source:
Louisville 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. Louisville Metro Public Works — Junk and bulk trash disposal is the official Louisville 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.
