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.
First item / additional item

The local disposal guide
Bulk junk removal in Rock Island: start with the item’s collection rules, then choose the arrangement that fits.
Reviewed · Sources below
Bulky material leaves Rock Island on a scheduled special pickup. Additional special pickups may be arranged for a published per pickup charge, and the city publishes a rules and regulations document alongside the page.
Construction material is split by the city's own rules. Bundled building lumber and carpet can go to the Refuse and Yard Waste Drop-Off Center for the per vehicle fee, while bricks, concrete blocks, masonry and railroad ties are refused on the special pickup route and sent to Millennium Waste.
Scrap metal has no published stream of its own. Appliances and resident generated tires move free through the Rock Island County Waste Management Agency programme that the city points residents to, while the special pickup route and the drop-off centre both refuse appliances and tires, so loose metal still has to be confirmed before it moves.
The handoff matters
Lumber, carpet, limbs and branches are all measured the same way at the drop-off centre: no longer than four and a half feet and no heavier than 50 pounds, with anything under two inches in diameter tied into bundles with twine or rope. Each vehicle trip carries no more than the equivalent of a full-size pickup load.
Refuse and Yard Waste Drop-Off Center, fees and preparation rulesThe special pickup refuses appliances, used tires and household hazardous materials, and the drop-off centre refuses hazardous waste, tires and appliances. Bricks, concrete blocks, masonry and railroad ties are directed to Millennium Waste rather than through either city route, and the appliance programme handles appliances and used tires separately.
Special Pick-Ups, the bulky route, its charge and its exclusionsRefuse and Yard Waste Drop-Off Center, fees and preparation rulesUse 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.

There is no extra charge just because the pile is loose. Send a photo first if the count or contents are unclear. A household Dumpster Bag choice does not accept construction debris.
Yes. Select the bags and boxes, then add each larger item using its own catalog choice. The booking shows one combined price for the selected items.
