City collection Couches, desks, chairs and tables are named as bulky items, so furniture is booked through the free bulky allowance rather than put in a cart. No charge. Furniture counts against the household's five free bulky pickups a year, each of which may carry up to five items, under the City's residential contract with CR&R.

The local disposal guide
Will the city take it?
Newport Beach contracts its residential refuse collection to CR&R, which runs the weekly route Monday through Friday between seven in the morning and seven at night. Carts go out by six thirty in the morning and come back inside by seven the same evening, and they need a foot of space between them and three feet of clearance from hydrants, trees and parked cars. Anything that will not fit a cart is a bulky item, and the City's residential contract allows a household up to five bulky pickups a year with up to five items in each one at no charge, covering couches, desks, chairs, tables, mattresses, refrigerators, washers and dryers, dishwashers, monitors, microwaves, televisions, printers, scanners, computers and keyboards. Household hazardous waste such as paint, motor oil, batteries, pool chemicals and pesticides is collected at the door by the same hauler on request, with a count and a list of the items provided in advance. Building material is the one load the City does not route through the household contract: a property owner lines up a franchise hauler for a roll-off container and gets a permit for anything placed in the public right of way, and asbestos has its own state-regulated handling and hauling chain.
CR&R collects residential refuse weekly on a weekday route, and the carts have to be out by six thirty in the morning and stored again by seven that evening.
City cost & eligibility
The City publishes the collection schedule but not the residential rate, so contact CR&R on 949-667-4158 or csnewport@crrmail.com to confirm the current charge for the address and the cart service. The bulky item allowance below is the one published no charge service.
When & how
Weekly, Monday through Friday, with collection occurring between seven in the morning and seven at night. Find the collection day through the City's collection day tool, and note that a weekday holiday delays collection by one day for the rest of that week.
Get it ready
Put the carts curbside or in the alley by six thirty in the morning, and do not set them out earlier than seven the evening before. Leave at least one foot between carts and three feet from any obstruction such as a fire hydrant, tree or car, and face the wheels and handles toward the property so the truck can open the lid from the street side, because a cart on the sidewalk, in a driveway or in the parkway is not collected. Bring the carts back to their storage area by seven in the evening on collection day.
A household can book up to five bulky item pickups a year at no charge, with up to five items in each collection, for anything that will not fit the automated carts.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Each household covered by the City's residential service contract with CR&R may order up to five bulky pickups per year with a maximum of five items per collection at no charge. Additional bulky collections beyond the first five may be arranged for an additional cost.
When & how
Book the collection with CR&R on 949-667-4158 or csnewport@crrmail.com, then put the items out on the agreed day.
Get it ready
Keep every item movable by a two person crew, because the City states that bulky items have to be manageable by a two person crew, and group no more than five items into one collection so the load stays inside the allowance. Common bulky items include couches, desks, chairs, tables, mattresses, refrigerators, washers and dryers, dishwashers, monitors, microwaves, televisions, printers, scanners, computers and keyboards.
Couches, desks, chairs and tables are named as bulky items, so furniture is booked through the free bulky allowance rather than put in a cart.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Furniture counts against the household's five free bulky pickups a year, each of which may carry up to five items, under the City's residential contract with CR&R.
When & how
Book the pickup with CR&R on 949-667-4158 or csnewport@crrmail.com and set the furniture out on the agreed day.
Get it ready
Group furniture with the rest of the load so no collection carries more than five items, and keep each piece light enough for a two person crew to handle, because the City makes that a condition of the bulky service. Keep furniture out of the carts, which take household refuse rather than bulky goods.
A mattress is named on the City's bulky item list, so bedding is booked through the free bulky allowance.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. A mattress counts against the household's five free bulky pickups a year, each of which may carry up to five items.
When & how
Book the pickup with CR&R on 949-667-4158 or csnewport@crrmail.com and set the items out on the agreed day.
Get it ready
Keep the set out of the carts and make sure a two person crew can handle it, because the City makes that a condition of the bulky service. Group the mattress and box spring into the same collection so they count as two of the five items in that pickup.
Refrigerators, washers, dryers and dishwashers are named as bulky items, so an appliance is booked through the free bulky allowance.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. An appliance counts against the household's five free bulky pickups a year, each of which may carry up to five items, under the City's residential contract with CR&R.
When & how
Book the pickup with CR&R on 949-667-4158 or csnewport@crrmail.com and set the unit out on the agreed day.
Get it ready
Empty the unit before it goes out and keep it movable by a two person crew, because the City makes that a condition of the bulky service. A refrigerator, washer, dryer or dishwasher all appear on the City's bulky item list, so each one is booked the same way rather than left beside a cart.
Televisions, monitors, computers, printers, scanners and keyboards are named as bulky items, and the hauler also collects electronic waste with the household hazardous waste service.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Small electronics count against the household's five free bulky pickups a year, and CR&R also collects electronic waste through the door side household hazardous waste service at no published household charge.
When & how
Book the collection with CR&R on 949-667-4158 or csnewport@crrmail.com, and be ready to give a count and a list of the items.
Get it ready
Wipe the personal data off a computer, phone or smart television before it changes hands, and keep electronics out of the carts because they are handled as bulky items or through the hazardous waste collection. When the request is for the hazardous waste service, the City says the hauler will ask for a specific count and a list of the items, which is required by law, so have that ready.
Building material does not ride the household cart service, so a project load goes through a franchise hauler for a roll-off container, with a permit if the container sits in the public right of way.
City cost & eligibility
The City publishes no household construction rate. A property owner obtains the list of franchise haulers for roll-off dumpster service from the City by calling 949-644-3055, and each hauler sets its own price, so confirm the container size, the placement and the cost with the hauler before the material is moved.
When & how
Arrange the roll-off container with a franchise hauler before the work starts, and get the right of way permit from Public Works if the container is placed in the street, alley or parkway. The county landfills publish their own hours for a self-haul load.
Get it ready
Lumber, shingles, plaster, bricks, stones, concrete, asphalt, carpet and drywall are examples of the building material the City names, and none of it belongs in the household carts or in a bulk pile booked under the five pickup allowance. Sort the load so recyclable material can go to a construction and demolition recycler, and remember that only an authorized franchise hauler may collect waste in the city, so a hired hauler has to be on that list.
Asbestos is a separately regulated waste: the state controls who may handle it, only authorized haulers may move it, and Orange County landfills do not accept it.
City cost & eligibility
The City publishes no household asbestos collection and states that Orange County landfills do not accept asbestos material. The California Department of Toxic Substances Control regulates who may handle it and maintains the list of authorized haulers, so the removal has to be arranged through a licensed contractor and an authorized hauler that sets its own price.
When & how
Arrange the removal and hauling before any material is disturbed, because neither the household collection nor the bulky item allowance takes asbestos.
Get it ready
Keep asbestos-containing material out of the carts, the bulky pile and the roll-off load, and check the state agency guidance before touching roofing shingles, ceiling or floor tiles, or asbestos cement products, because the material requires a state identification number to handle and an authorized hauler to move. The City also points to the California Water Boards landfill list for where it may go.
Household hazardous waste is collected at the door by the hauler on request, and the county also runs hazardous waste collection centers.
City cost & eligibility
The City publishes the hazardous waste routes but no household rate for the door side collection, so contact CR&R on 949-667-4158 or csnewport@crrmail.com and confirm the terms and what the collection will cover. The county centers are the alternative route and publish their own hours.
When & how
Call the hauler to arrange a door side collection, or use one of the county household hazardous waste centers, which the City says are open Tuesday through Saturday between nine in the morning and three in the afternoon.
Get it ready
The City says the hauler collects motor oil, oil filters, paint, batteries, household cleaners, pool chemicals, electronic waste and pesticides, and that the representative will ask for a specific count and a list of the items because it is required by law, so have that ready before the collection. Keep these products out of the carts, and note that medicine and sharps have their own separate routes: sharps go door side in an approved puncture proof container and are illegal to place in the trash, while medicines go to a takeback pharmacy or are treated and sealed into their original container with the lid taped.
Put the carts curbside or in the alley by six thirty in the morning, and do not set them out earlier than seven the evening before. Leave at least one foot between carts and three feet from any obstruction such as a fire hydrant, tree or parked car, and face the wheels and handles toward the property so the truck can open the lid from the street. Bring the carts back to their storage area by seven in the evening, because a cart left on the sidewalk, in a driveway or in the parkway is not collected.
Book the bulky pickup rather than leaving it beside the carts
A household covered by the City's residential contract with CR&R may order up to five bulky pickups a year at no charge, with up to five items in each collection, and anything beyond that can still be arranged for an additional cost. Contact the hauler on 949-667-4158 or csnewport@crrmail.com to book the day, group no more than five items into the collection, and keep every item movable by a two person crew because the City makes that a condition of the service.
Hazardous waste is collected at the door with a list ready
The hauler collects household hazardous waste at the door on request, covering motor oil, oil filters, paint, batteries, household cleaners, pool chemicals, electronic waste and pesticides. The City says the representative will ask for a specific count and a list of the items because it is required by law, so have that ready before the collection and keep the products out of the carts. Medicine and sharps have separate routes: sharps go door side in an approved puncture proof container and are illegal to place in the trash, while medicines go to a takeback pharmacy or are treated and sealed into their original container with the lid taped.
A project load needs a franchise hauler and often a permit
Building material such as lumber, shingles, plaster, bricks, stones, concrete, asphalt, carpet and drywall does not ride the household carts or the bulky allowance. A property owner obtains the list of franchise haulers for roll-off dumpster service from the City on 949-644-3055, and needs a permit from Public Works on 949-644-3311 for a container placed in the public right of way. Only an authorized franchise hauler may collect waste in the city, and asbestos has its own state-regulated handling and hauling chain that the county landfills will not accept.
Use a permitted, accessible outdoor spot. Arrange the move out of your home, keep shared access clear and follow your confirmation’s readiness instructions. Check with your building about access or staging limits before booking.

City of Newport Beach Municipal Operations with CR&R Waste Services as the contracted residential hauler
Arrange the door side hazardous waste collection
A household with motor oil, paint, batteries, cleaners, pool chemicals, pesticides or electronic waste to get rid of.
Cost & conditions
The City publishes the door side route but no household rate, so contact CR&R on 949-667-4158 or csnewport@crrmail.com and confirm the terms and what the collection covers.
Arrange it
Call the hauler, provide the specific count and list of items the City says is required by law, and set the material out for the door side collection.
The list of items has to be provided before collection, the material stays in its original labeled containers, and medicine and sharps do not ride this route because they have their own programs.

Use a county hazardous waste collection center
A household that would rather drive the material to a fixed site than wait for a door side collection.
Cost & conditions
The City points to the county centers without publishing a household rate, so check the county page the City links for the current locations, accepted material and any charge before the trip.
Arrange it
Use a county household hazardous waste collection center, which the City says is open Tuesday through Saturday between nine in the morning and three in the afternoon.
The centers are a county service with their own accepted material list, and the City publishes the hours rather than the full rules, so confirm what the specific center takes.
Order a roll-off container from a franchise hauler
A property owner with a remodeling, roofing or clean out load that will not fit the household service.
Cost & conditions
The City publishes the franchise hauler list rather than a container rate, and each hauler sets its own price, so confirm the container size, the placement and the total with the hauler that is selected.
Arrange it
Call the City on 949-644-3055 for the list of franchise haulers for roll-off dumpster service, then arrange the container with the hauler and get a permit from Public Works on 949-644-3311 if it goes in the public right of way.
Only an authorized franchise hauler may collect waste in the city, and a container placed in the street, alley or parkway needs a permit, so an unpermitted or off-list hauler is not an option.

Find a construction and demolition recycler
A household or property owner who would rather recycle a project load than send it to a landfill.
Cost & conditions
The state database lists facilities rather than prices, so confirm the accepted material and the gate charge with the recycler before delivering the load.
Arrange it
Search the state construction and demolition recyclers database that the City links, choose a facility that takes the material, and confirm its terms before hauling.
The database is a state directory rather than a city service, and each facility sets its own accepted material and price, so the load still has to be sorted and confirmed.
Self haul in Newport Beach means the county and state routes the City names, because the household service already covers bulky goods and hazardous waste at the door. A project load goes into a roll-off container from a hauler on the City's franchise list, which is obtained by calling 949-644-3055, and a container placed in the public right of way needs a permit from Public Works on 949-644-3311. The Orange County landfills on 714-834-4000 confirm what a self-haul load may contain, and the state construction and demolition recyclers database that the City links lists facilities that take sorted project material. Household hazardous waste can be taken to a county collection center, which the City says is open Tuesday through Saturday from nine in the morning to three in the afternoon, and batteries can be dropped at City facilities in the Big Green Box, with each battery wrapped or taped at the ends. Asbestos is excluded from every one of those routes: Orange County landfills do not accept it, and the state requires a licensed handler and an authorized hauler for it.

As bulky items booked with CR&R on 949-667-4158 or csnewport@crrmail.com. Refrigerators, washers and dryers and dishwashers are named on the City's bulky item list, and the household's five free bulky pickups a year each accept up to five items, so an appliance should be booked rather than left at the curb with the carts.Official guidance

Can someone take items from my cans in Newport Beach?+
No. The City states that only authorized franchise haulers may collect waste and that scavenging is illegal in Newport Beach because it lowers the City's state-mandated recycling rate, with scavenging defined as unauthorized people going through refuse containers on public or private property. A sighting can be reported to the Police Department non-emergency line on 949-644-3717 with a description and a plate number if a vehicle is involved.Official guidance
