Bulky pickup in Wilmington

Mattresses, furniture, and many appliances — city bulk or drop-off, not the regular cart.

Official source:

Wilmington city trash customers schedule mattresss free by appointment — call 910-341-7875 by 4:30pm the business day before trash day. Keep HHW for the county HHW depot. White goods self-haul free to NHC Landfill.

HHW in Wilmington

Household hazardous waste — used oil, paint, propane, batteries, and chemicals.

Official source:

Take motor oil to New Hanover County HHW, 3002 Hwy 421 N — permanent depot, Mon–Fri 8–3, Sat 8–12, free for county residents. Mobile HazWagon weekly. Keep chemicals off bulky piles.

E-waste in Wilmington

TVs, computers, and electronics. Usually banned from trash and the blue bin.

Official source:

Wilmington electronics including e waste mixed go on a city bulky appointment or drop free at NHC HHW, 3002 Hwy 421 N (Mon–Fri 8–3, Sat 8–12) for county residents. Wipe data.

Yard & organics in Wilmington

Yard waste, food scraps, and cooking oil where the city has a separate stream.

Official source:

Wilmington city trash customers set yard waste in a separate curbside pile. Non-customers use NHC Landfill yard-debris pathways.

Recycling & film in Wilmington

Cart recycling, store film take-back, and foam rules — not a second bulky program.

Official source:

Wilmington 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 Wilmington — Bulky Item Collection is the official Wilmington 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.
