A larger piece is a special pickup through Republic on 816-521-3129, which the city says may carry an additional charge.
City collection Trash is limited to what fits in the blue cart, and anything beyond it goes out in a standard bag with an overflow sticker. No charge.

Overflow waste stickers cost $2.00 a bag, sold in sheets of five or ten at City Hall and two hardware stores.

The local disposal guide
Will the city take it?
Prairie Village collects trash, recycling and yard waste once a week under a single contract, and the yard waste side is the generous half of it. A household may put out twelve yard waste items every week of the year, in paper bags or rigid containers of thirty three gallons or less, with tied bundles of four feet, under twenty four inches around, under fifty pounds and branches no thicker than three inches. Bulk is the tighter half. The city allows one bulky item a month in the first full week, and that item has to be small, no more than two feet by two feet and under forty five pounds, so a rug or a counter top appliance qualifies and a sofa or a mattress does not; anything larger is a special pickup arranged with Republic at a possible charge. Trash overflows carry a sticker, glass is not collected at the kerb and goes to the purple Ripple Glass bin at Corinth Square, and household chemicals go to the Johnson County facility in Overland Park by appointment.

City cost & eligibility
No charge. City of Prairie Village households on the Republic Services residential contract, for the one monthly item that fits the size and weight allowance. A larger piece is a special pickup through Republic on 816-521-3129, which the city says may carry an additional charge.
When & how
Put the item out in the first full week of the month on the household's weekly collection day, which comes from the city pickup schedule map.
Get it ready
Keep the piece inside the two foot by two foot and forty-five pound allowance, and leave suitable bulky items for the monthly week rather than the trash cart, where trash is limited to what fits inside. Construction materials, batteries, tires, automotive parts and hazardous waste are excluded from bulky pickup, and an unsuitable item is flagged with a tag telling the household a special pickup is required.
Yard waste runs every week of the year, twelve items at a time, in a paper bag or a rigid container of thirty three gallons or less, with tied bundles of four feet, under twenty four inches around, under fifty pounds, and branches no more than three inches across. Anything beyond twelve items needs an overflow sticker.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. City of Prairie Village households on the residential contract, with twelve yard waste items a week allowed year round at no additional charge. Each item beyond that needs an overflow waste sticker at $2.00 a bag, sold in sheets of five or ten.
When & how
Put the yard waste at the curb on the household's weekly collection day. The city collects solid waste, recyclables and yard waste once a week, and the day comes from the pickup schedule map.
Get it ready
Use a biodegradable paper bag or a rigid container of thirty three gallons or less, drill drainage holes in the bottom of a rigid container and use a lid whenever possible, and keep sticks and branches out of the rigid containers. Tie bundles with twine, keep them to four feet in length, under twenty four inches in circumference and under fifty pounds, and keep individual branches no more than three inches in diameter, because logs are not accepted.
Trash is limited to what fits in the blue cart, and anything beyond it goes out in a standard bag with an overflow sticker.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. City of Prairie Village households, with one trash cart and one recycling cart provided for each home. Overflow waste stickers cost $2.00 a bag, sold in sheets of five or ten at City Hall and two hardware stores.
When & how
Put the cart at the curb on the weekly collection day, within one foot of the curb with the arrows pointing toward the street and three feet of space from the recycling cart.
Get it ready
Bag all trash inside the cart and keep the load to what fits. Store carts in the garage or behind the front building line, screened from the view of people using public streets or walkways except when out for pickup, and use an overflow sticker on any bag that does not fit.
Recycling is unlimited and goes in the cart loose, and glass is not part of the curbside service at all. The city sends glass to the purple Ripple Glass bin at Corinth Square.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. City of Prairie Village households, with one recycling cart provided and unlimited volume accepted, and extra recyclables allowed in any container labelled with the word recycling or the chasing arrows symbol. Glass dropped at the Corinth Square bin is a free community service.
When & how
Put the recycling cart out with the trash on the weekly collection day, at least three feet from the trash cart, with material at the curb by 7:00 a.m.
Get it ready
Place recycling loosely in the cart rather than bagged, and cut cardboard into two foot by two foot pieces before setting it out. Wet newspapers, glass, plastic bags and styrofoam cannot go in the cart, and old cell phones can be dropped in the collection box in the police department lobby, where the proceeds support the Shop with a Cop programme.
Prairie Village has no local hazardous waste service of its own, and the county facility in Overland Park takes the material by appointment on three days a week.
City cost & eligibility
The city publishes the county facility, its days and its appointment line but no rate, so call the Johnson County Department of Health and Environment on 913-715-6907 or book online and confirm the terms for the material before loading a car.
When & how
Book an appointment with the county and take the material to 11231 Mastin St in Overland Park, open year round on Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays on an appointment only basis.
Get it ready
Keep hazardous waste out of the trash cart and out of the monthly bulky item, because the city excludes hazardous waste from bulky pickup. Paint, motor oil and similar household chemicals all belong on the county appointment rather than at the kerb.
Trash carts are the blue containers with blue lids. They go within one foot of the curb with the arrows pointing toward the street, with three feet of space between the trash cart and the recycling cart. Carts are stored in the garage or behind the front building line and screened from the view of people using public streets or walkways except when they are out for pickup.
Twelve yard items a week, one small bulky item a month
The two allowances are very different. Yard waste runs every week of the year at twelve items a week, in paper bags or rigid containers of thirty three gallons or less, with tied bundles of four feet, under twenty four inches around and under fifty pounds. The bulky allowance is one item a month in the first full week, and it has to be no larger than two feet by two feet and under forty five pounds.
Trash that does not fit in the cart goes out in a standard bag with an overflow waste sticker, and each yard waste item beyond the twelve a week allowance needs the same sticker. The sticker price sits in the charge record. Stickers are sold at Prairie Village City Hall on Mission Road and at Westlake Hardware on Somerset and Euston Hardware on Tomahawk Road, with City Hall selling sheets of five or ten.
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.
