You have decided what is going. Now give those bags and boxes a pickup day, with a price you can see before anyone arrives.
Book the unwanted bags and boxes left after packing. Choose an available pickup day before you hand back the keys, and arrange to have them outside.
You do not need a whole house of junk. Select the bags, boxes and larger items you actually have. Your combined price is shown online.
When the next collection does not fit your plans, choose a Dropcurb pickup day. Updates keep you informed, and completion photos show when the booked items are gone.
A clear count. An exact price.
A few simple choices turn a mixed pile into a clear booking. No need to estimate how much of a truck it might fill.
Count each trash bag or filled household box. Books and media go by the box. Clothes, bedding and shoes go by the filled bag. Toys packed together have a Box of toys choice. Ask us about unusually heavy or oversized bags and boxes first.
Empty cardboard is a different choice: choose single empty boxes or tied bundles of 10 flattened boxes. Compacted bales have their own weight-based choices and require loading-dock access. A Storage bin choice covers the empty bin itself; ask us to confirm the contents if they are going too.
Add the actual larger item alongside your bags and boxes, such as a sofa, chair or mattress. It has its own price and preparation. Keep construction materials and items needing special handling out of ordinary household bags.

The local disposal guide
Bulk junk removal in Lincoln: start with the item’s collection rules, then choose the arrangement that fits.
Reviewed · Sources below
Lincoln has no bulky item list of its own because the regional facility takes mixed refuse by volume. A load of furniture, mattresses or general junk is charged by the cubic yard at the public scale houses, and a household with an active utility account can also apply for a temporary 3-yard bin from the city.
Appliances have their own published per item rates at the Materials Recovery Facility, with refrigerated units costing more than non refrigerated ones.
Household hazardous waste is free for Placer County residents at the Materials Recovery Facility, every day, with a per drop-off cap on how much can be brought at once.
The handoff matters
