City collection Bulky items such as furniture, a toilet, a non-metal sink or carpet are collected by appointment through the city's hauler for a published per item fee. $33.2 per bulky item scheduled with Waste Management for curbside collection. Booked by the household directly with the hauler on 800-972-4545 or at wm.com. Metal and electronic items are not part of this service and go through the separate city pickup number, and mattresses and box springs are recycled at the Recycling Center instead.
City collection Massachusetts banned mattresses and box springs from disposal in November 2022, so Attleboro recycles them at the Recycling Center or through a private curbside company. $25 per mattress or box spring dropped at the Attleboro Recycling Center. Each item must be dry, free of bed bugs and free of mould, and the same fee applies per piece. A private curbside service the city names as a courtesy without any relationship or endorsement is the alternative, and its price is set by that company.
City collection Metal, large appliances and electronics are collected on the city's separate metal pickup line or dropped at the Recycling Center, free for households in the trash program. No charge. Metal, electronics and large appliances are free at the Recycling Center for residential units one through eight in the trash program, and a television needs a sticker from the Rubbish Office with one free sticker each fiscal year inside the program. Households outside the program buy a 30 dollar annual sticker, and a television dropped outside the program costs 35 dollars.

The local disposal guide
Will the city take it?
Attleboro collects rubbish and recycling from residential units one through eight in the trash program with a 35 gallon city cart and a 64 gallon recycling toter, and anything that does not fit goes out as a city bag or waits for a scheduled bulk pickup. Bulk items are collected through Waste Management for a published per item fee, while metal and electronics are handled on a separate city number and mattresses never ride that route at all. Massachusetts banned mattresses and box springs from disposal on November 1, 2022, so Attleboro recycles them at the Recycling Center on Pond Street North for a published per piece fee or through a private curbside company the city names without any relationship. Yard waste goes out during four curbside weeks a year in paper bags or barrels, or to the Compost Center, and renovation materials are not collected from any property.

City cost & eligibility
$33.2 per bulky item scheduled with Waste Management for curbside collection. Booked by the household directly with the hauler on 800-972-4545 or at wm.com. Metal and electronic items are not part of this service and go through the separate city pickup number, and mattresses and box springs are recycled at the Recycling Center instead.
When & how
Call the hauler, take the pickup day it offers, and have the item at the curb for that day, but not during a bulk amnesty week when regular bulk scheduling pauses.
Get it ready
Keep the item to household material such as furniture, a toilet, a non-metal sink or carpet, because renovation material and metal are outside this service. Extra household trash that will not fit the cart goes in city bags rather than into a bulky pile.
Massachusetts banned mattresses and box springs from disposal in November 2022, so Attleboro recycles them at the Recycling Center or through a private curbside company.
City cost & eligibility
$25 per mattress or box spring dropped at the Attleboro Recycling Center. Each item must be dry, free of bed bugs and free of mould, and the same fee applies per piece. A private curbside service the city names as a courtesy without any relationship or endorsement is the alternative, and its price is set by that company.
When & how
Drop the mattress at 29 Pond Street North on Tuesday or Thursday between 12:30 p.m. and 3:30 p.m., or on Friday or Saturday between 9 a.m. and 1 p.m.
Get it ready
Keep the mattress dry and clean, because a wet, infested or mouldy mattress is refused at the gate, and note that a futon mattress is treated as a bulky item rather than a mattress. Book the private curbside option directly with the company if the household cannot drive the item to the centre.
Yard waste goes out on four curbside collection weeks a year in paper bags or open barrels, or to the Compost Center from April through November.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. The curbside collection weeks and the Compost Center drop off are the city routes, with no separate charge published for household leaves, grass and brush that follow the rules.
When & how
Curbside weeks run November 9 to 13 and December 7 to 11 in 2026 and April 12 to 16 and May 3 to 7 in 2027, each on the assigned trash day, while the Compost Center is open Monday to Friday 12:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. and weekends 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. from April through November.
Get it ready
Use paper yard waste bags or barrels with two handles and the cover off, keep a barrel under 50 pounds, and never use plastic bags, because plastic is left at the curb. The Compost Center takes leaves, grass and yard waste including brush and branches, so keep trash out of the load.
Construction materials from renovation projects are not collected from any property in Attleboro, so the material has to leave with a private hauler.
City cost & eligibility
No city collection and no city drop off: the city states plainly that construction materials from renovation projects will not be collected, and the bulky item service and the Recycling Center listings do not include building material. A private hauler or the contractor arranges the removal instead.
When & how
Plan on a private hauler before the work starts, because nothing about a renovation load can wait for a curbside day.
Get it ready
Keep renovation debris out of the trash cart, the recycling toter and any bulky pile, and write the removal into the contractor's scope so the material never reaches the curb.
Metal, large appliances and electronics are collected on the city's separate metal pickup line or dropped at the Recycling Center, free for households in the trash program.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Metal, electronics and large appliances are free at the Recycling Center for residential units one through eight in the trash program, and a television needs a sticker from the Rubbish Office with one free sticker each fiscal year inside the program. Households outside the program buy a 30 dollar annual sticker, and a television dropped outside the program costs 35 dollars.
When & how
Call 508-822-1579 for the weekly metal and electronics pickup with everything at the curb by 7 a.m., or drop the items at 29 Pond Street North on Tuesday or Thursday afternoon or Friday and Saturday morning.
Get it ready
Drain any gas or oil from the item before it goes out, keep metal and electronics out of the bulky list and the trash cart, and get the television sticker from the Rubbish Office before the pickup or the drop off.
All trash has to be inside the city's 35 gallon cart, with only city bags collected outside it, and carts go to the edge of the roadway with the wheels facing away from the street and three feet from any obstruction. Carts are curbside by 7 a.m. on the collection day, recycling is collected weekly on the same day, and no construction materials from renovation projects are collected from any property.
Book bulk with the hauler, and mind the amnesty weeks
Bulky items are booked directly with Waste Management on 800-972-4545 for the published per item fee, and regular bulk scheduling pauses during a bulk amnesty week, when two small and two large items can be scheduled on the assigned trash day instead with an appointment made before the Thursday preceding the week.
The Recycling Center only takes a mattress or box spring that is dry and free of bed bugs and mould, and a wet, infested or mouldy mattress is turned away. A futon mattress is treated as a bulky item rather than a mattress, and the private curbside company the city names handles pickups without any city relationship or endorsement.
Yard waste goes out on the assigned trash day during the four curbside weeks, in paper bags or barrels with the cover off and under 50 pounds, and never in plastic. The Compost Center at 29 Pond Street North takes leaves, grass, brush and branches from April through November on weekdays 12:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. and weekends 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Metal, electronics and large appliances are not part of the bulky item service. They go out on the weekly metal pickup arranged on 508-822-1579 with the item drained of gas or oil and at the curb by 7 a.m., or they are dropped at the Recycling Center, and a television needs a sticker from the Rubbish Office either way.
Trash that will not fit in the cart goes out in city trash bags, which are sold in rolls of five at the stores the city lists, and there is no limit on how many bags may be placed out for collection as long as each one is a city bag.
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.

Loading, transportation and disposal are included. Review any applicable sales tax and the final total before payment.

How do I book a bulky item pickup in Attleboro?+
Call Waste Management at 800-972-4545 or book through wm.com for a published per item fee, with furniture, a toilet, a non-metal sink or carpet as the examples the city gives. Metal and electronic items are not part of that service, so they go through the city number for metal pickup instead, and a mattress or box spring is recycled at the Recycling Center on Pond Street North rather than collected as bulk.Official guidance
Where does a mattress go in Attleboro?+
To the Attleboro Recycling Center at 29 Pond Street North, on Tuesday or Thursday from 12:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. or Friday and Saturday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., for a published fee for each piece, as long as it is dry and free of bed bugs and mould. Massachusetts banned mattresses and box springs from disposal in November 2022, so they never go in the trash and they are not part of the bulk item pickup. A futon mattress counts as a bulky item instead.Official guidance
When does Attleboro collect leaves and yard waste?+
On four curbside weeks a year rather than every week: November 9 to 13 and December 7 to 11 in 2026, and April 12 to 16 and May 3 to 7 in 2027, with the material out on your assigned trash day. Leaves and grass go in paper yard waste bags or barrels with two handles and the cover off, barrel weight must stay under 50 pounds, and plastic bags are never serviced. The Compost Center at 29 Pond Street North takes yard waste from April through November on weekdays and weekends.Official guidance
How do metal and appliances leave an Attleboro home?+
Call 508-822-1579 for the weekly metal and electronics pickup and have the item at the curb by 7 a.m., or take it to the Recycling Center at 29 Pond Street North, where metal, electronics and large appliances are free for households in the trash program. Drain the gas or oil first, and get a sticker from the Rubbish Office before a television is picked up or dropped off, because one free sticker is allowed each fiscal year.Official guidance
Who runs rubbish and bulk collection in Attleboro?+
The Rubbish and Recycling Department runs curbside collection for residential units one through eight and answers on 508-223-2222 extension 3245, while bulky item pickups are booked directly with the city's hauler Waste Management on 800-972-4545. Metal and electronic items use a separate pickup number, and the Recycling Center and Compost Center share the site at 29 Pond Street North.Official guidance
What do bulky and special items cost in Attleboro?+
A bulky item booked with the hauler carries a published per item fee, while items dropped at the Recycling Center are priced individually: mattresses and box springs per piece, tires by size, fire extinguishers each. Metal, electronics and large appliances are free to households in the trash program, a household outside it buys an annual sticker, a second recycling cart carries its own price, and overflow trash goes in city bags sold by the roll.Official guidance
Why can't a mattress go in the trash in Attleboro?+
MassDEP banned mattresses and box springs from disposal on November 1, 2022, so landfills, transfer stations and waste to energy plants across Massachusetts stopped taking them and they have to be recycled or donated instead. Attleboro's routes are the Recycling Center on Pond Street North for a published fee per piece when the item is dry and clean, a retailer that takes the old mattress when a new one is bought, a local gifting group, or a private curbside company the city lists without any relationship or endorsement.Official guidance
Where do renovation materials go in Attleboro?+
Nowhere in the city programme: the city states that no construction materials from renovation projects will be collected, and neither the bulky item service nor the Recycling Center list includes building material. A renovation load has to leave with a private hauler or through the contractor's own disposal, kept out of the trash cart, the recycling toter and any bulky pile.Official guidance
