Does Highland pick up exercise equipment?
Same-day junk removal in Highland starts at $79 with Dropcurb. In a city of about 56,999 people in San Bernardino County, residents often need faster options than municipal scheduling allows, especially during move-outs, remodels, and HOA deadline cleanups in East Highlands Ranch.

City program details: Highland contracts with Burrtec and requires weekly refuse service. Residents get four free bulky-item pickups per year, up to five items per pickup, with overages billed per item and extra trip charges.
Highland requires trash service every seven days through Burrtec and offers four free bulky pickups per year with limits of five items per collection, then overage and trip charges apply. The city also directs hazardous waste to county HHW facilities instead of curb pickup, which adds extra logistics. In HOA-heavy neighborhoods like East Highlands Ranch and newer subdivisions, those rules can leave residents stuck when they need immediate removal before inspections or move deadlines.
Dropcurb picks up exercise equipment same-day in Highland for $109 flat — no wait, no annual limits, no restrictions.
Four city bulky pickups per year do not solve urgent cleanouts.
Highland has a municipal program, but annual pickup limits and item caps create bottlenecks for residents handling moves, remodel debris, or HOA notices. When timing matters, waiting for the next available city slot can be more expensive than booking a guaranteed curbside pickup immediately.

What happens to your exercise equipment after pickup
Exercise equipment is primarily recycled for scrap metal — treadmills, ellipticals, and weight machines contain significant amounts of steel, aluminum, and copper. Motors from treadmills and ellipticals are separated for copper recovery. Plastic housings and rubber components are processed separately. Equipment in working condition may be donated to community centers, schools, or resold through secondhand fitness equipment dealers. Non-functional equipment is broken down at scrap facilities.
