Starting at $79. Additional items from $19.
Old treadmills, ellipticals, and exercise bikes are among the hardest items to get rid of because they're heavy, bulky, and hard to transport. Your options: city bulk pickup (free but many cities exclude equipment this heavy), selling or giving away (if it still works), self-haul to a scrap yard ($0–50), curbside pickup through Dropcurb ($109, same day), or traditional junk removal ($200–600+).

Treadmill removal costs $109 through Dropcurb — that's the $79 pickup fee plus a $30 heavy item upgrade. Each additional heavy item is +$59. An elliptical is also $109. Exercise bikes are $79 (standard tier, no upgrade fee). Traditional junk removal companies charge $200–$600+ because of the weight and effort involved. Scrap yards may accept equipment for free but you'll need a truck and help loading.

Same-day junk removal in Glenview, IL starts at $79 with Dropcurb. Glenview has about 47,752 residents in the Chicago-Naperville-Elgin metro, with high homeownership and active renovation and move-in turnover that regularly create bulky-item disposal needs. Book online in about 60 seconds, leave items curbside, and a local hauler handles pickup the same day on many routes.
City program details: Glenview contracts with Groot for weekly residential collection, but material outside carts cannot exceed 50 pounds per piece/container and bulky or heavy items require scheduled bulk pickup with a fee. White goods and electronics also require separate scheduling, and homes with 3+ attached units are outside the default Village contract unless an HOA opts in.
Glenview offers weekly collection, but Village rules still create real limits for fast cleanouts. Material outside carts is capped at 50 pounds per piece, bulky and heavy pickups must be scheduled with a fee, and white goods or electronics follow separate pickup pathways. The Village also notes many 3+ attached-unit properties are outside the default municipal contract unless an HOA opts in, which can create timing gaps when residents need immediate removal.
Dropcurb picks up exercise equipment same-day in Glenview for $109 flat — no wait, no annual limits, no restrictions.
Glenview households can use weekly collection, yet real-world limits remain: outside-cart material has a 50-pound cap per piece, heavy/bulky items need scheduled paid pickup, and white goods/electronics move through separate channels. When a move or renovation deadline is this week, those rules can slow everything down.

Dropcurb starting price
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.
Dropcurb fills that timing gap in Glenview with curbside pickup starting at $79, no home entry, and pricing shown before checkout. You avoid estimate appointments and avoid juggling multiple municipal pickup channels. For deadline-driven move-outs and renovation cleanups, it is the faster and more predictable option.
