Cambridge Public Works

Regular City collection

The exact furniture piece, small electronic or residential carpet bundle qualifies at an eligible resident address.

Cost & conditions
Permit requirements and any charge depend on the exact item; check it in Get Rid of It Right.
Arrange it
Use the address's collection day and follow the item's preparation rule.

Furniture is limited to one qualifying piece per week. Carpet has a residential bundle limit. Commercial and industrial items are excluded from curbside collection; the Recycling Center has separate small-business and nonprofit eligibility.

Check the City's item rules

Taking it somewhere yourself?

The Cambridge Recycling Center is a documented local drop-off for accepted small electronics, not a general bulky-item facility. The City lists no Cambridge mattress drop-off, and the retained sources do not establish local self-haul for furniture, carpet, exercise equipment or air conditioners. Confirm a private destination before transporting those items. Cambridge Recycling CenterMattress recycling and UTEC collection
