Bulky pickup in Minneapolis
Mattresses, furniture, and many appliances — city bulk or drop-off, not the regular cart.
Official source:
Minneapolis Large Item Collection allows up to 2 items per week. Mark items For Solid Waste and set out by 6 a.m. Mattresses go on recycling week (same week as appliances/electronics). Furniture and carpet go on garbage week — do not mix weeks.
Household hazardous waste — used oil, paint, propane, batteries, and chemicals.
Official source:
Hennepin County HHW at Bloomington 1400 W 96th St accepts household hazardous materials Tue–Sat 9 a.m.–5 p.m. Used motor oil accepted at HHW. Tires use South Transfer voucher/fees — not HHW.
TVs, computers, and electronics. Usually banned from trash and the blue bin.
Official source:
Mixed Electronic Waste go on Minneapolis Large Item recycling week — mark For Solid Waste; set out by 6 a.m.; up to 2 items/week. Wipe personal data before recycling computers/phones.
Construction debris, concrete, and remodel waste — transfer station or roll-off.
Official source:
Limited homeowner renovation debris may go on Minneapolis Large Item garbage week (furniture/carpet week — confirm item type). Larger C&D loads need a private hauler or Hennepin transfer options. Route paint to Hennepin HHW separately.
Cart recycling, store film take-back, and foam rules — not a second bulky program.
Official source:
Minneapolis 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 Minneapolis — Large Item Collection is the official Minneapolis 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.
