Bulky pickup in Cary
Mattresses, furniture, and many appliances — city bulk or drop-off, not the regular cart.
Official source:
Cary mattresss go on bulky collection by appointment — schedule via carync.gov. Keep HHW for Wake County South Wake HHW in Apex (Cary CCC closing note may apply).
TVs, computers, and electronics. Usually banned from trash and the blue bin.
Official source:
Cary electronics including e waste mixed go to Wake County South Wake HHW in Apex — confirm on carync.gov (Cary CCC closing notes may apply). Wipe data before drop-off.
Construction debris, concrete, and remodel waste — transfer station or roll-off.
Official source:
Construction debris is not typical free bulk material. Hire private C&D or confirm transfer C&D rules. Route paint/chemicals to South Wake HHW separately.
Cart recycling, store film take-back, and foam rules — not a second bulky program.
Official source:
Cary 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. Town of Cary — Trash & Recycling is the official Cary 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.
