Bulky pickup in Greensboro
Mattresses, furniture, and many appliances — city bulk or drop-off, not the regular cart.
Official source:
Greensboro mattresses are free on biweekly bulk collection on your recycling day. Set out by 7:00 a.m. Items must be ≤50 lbs and manageable by two people. Large appliances use a separate appointment path.
Household hazardous waste — used oil, paint, propane, batteries, and chemicals.
Official source:
Greensboro HHW Collection Center at 2750 Patterson St accepts household hazardous materials free for Guilford County residents. Used motor oil at HHW center.
TVs, computers, and electronics. Usually banned from trash and the blue bin.
Official source:
Electronics including mixed e-waste go to Greensboro HHW Collection Center — 2750 Patterson St — Mon–Fri 10:00 a.m.–6:00 p.m., Sat 8:00 a.m.–2:00 p.m., free for Guilford County residents. Wipe data before drop-off.
Construction debris, concrete, and remodel waste — transfer station or roll-off.
Official source:
Contractor construction debris is not Greensboro biweekly bulk. Hire a private C&D hauler for remodel loads. Route paint/chemicals to HHW center separately.
Cart recycling, store film take-back, and foam rules — not a second bulky program.
Official source:
Greensboro 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 Greensboro — Bulk Items is the official Greensboro 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.
