Outside Albuquerque limits? Bernalillo County household hazardous waste is the suburban / county program.

Mattresses, furniture, and many appliances — city bulk or drop-off, not the regular cart.
Official source:
Albuquerque offers free Large Item Pick-Up on request through ABQ311 — schedule at least 24 hours in advance, Monday–Saturday. Pickup-truck load limit applies. Mattresses go via Large Item; set out per ABQ311 instructions on your scheduled day.
Household hazardous waste — used oil, paint, propane, batteries, and chemicals.
Official source:

Used motor oil accepted at HHWCC. HHWCC does NOT accept appliances, tires, or general e-waste (CRT monitors excepted).

Albuquerque HHWCC at 2720 Girard Blvd NE accepts CRT monitors but NOT general e-waste, appliances, or tires. For mixed electronic waste, use Eagle Rock convenience center e-waste (fees apply) — call 505-768-3925 or see cabq.gov e-waste page. Do not put general e-waste in the blue cart.
Construction debris, concrete, and remodel waste — transfer station or roll-off.
Official source:
Limited homeowner renovation debris may fit Large Item Pick-Up via ABQ311 (pickup-truck load limit). Convenience centers charge $5.25/load as an alternative. Larger contractor C&D loads need a private hauler. Route paint and chemicals to HHWCC separately.
Yard waste, food scraps, and cooking oil where the city has a separate stream.
Official source:
Albuquerque handles yard waste through regular collection and green waste programs. Follow city set-out rules; keep yard waste out of HHWCC and Large Item piles when not appropriate.
Cart recycling, store film take-back, and foam rules — not a second bulky program.
Official source:
Albuquerque 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 Albuquerque — Large item pick-up is the official Albuquerque 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.
