The local disposal guide

Will the city
take it?

Danvers does not collect bulky material on the regular run. A household buys a town sticker first, calls the number printed on it the day before the trash day, and has the item stickered at the curb by 7 a.m. Appliances, furniture, carpet, a gas grill without its tank and even a television ride that same sticker, and no metal or rigid plastic goes out at all. Mattresses left the bulky program and now go through the town's recycling partner, while the transfer station takes a large load by weight or charges a flat fee for a bulky item.

Yard waste and brush

Accepted with preparation

Danvers collects yard waste about eleven times a year on the scheduled weeks, and the transfer station takes the rest behind a brush sticker.

City cost & eligibility
$15 for the annual brush sticker for unlimited brush and yard waste disposal at the transfer station, with a single use pass at the lower published rate for a resident with a commercial plate. Residents or property owners with a passenger plate buy the annual sticker, and a resident with a commercial plate buys the single use pass. Both are sold at the Clerk's Office, the Business Division at 2 Burroughs Street or online. The scheduled curbside weeks carry no separate charge.
When & how
Set the material out on the scheduled yard waste weeks, which in 2026 are the weeks of April 19, May 3, May 17, June 7, July 5, August 9, September 6, October 11, October 25, November 8 and November 22, plus a Christmas tree pickup in January. The transfer station takes overflow Monday to Saturday 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. with entry by 3:45 p.m.
Get it ready
Put unlimited yard waste in open barrels with a free yard waste sticker from a town building, kept separate from the trash, or in paper yard waste bags of no more than 45 gallons or 50 pounds. Bundle and tie branches and twigs, and keep brush to four feet long and four inches across.

Dumpster bags and container rentals

Not on the regular city route

Danvers publishes no bag collection and no town container rental for a household load. The town's dumpster rules are public health permits for permanent dumpsters, and a large household load goes to the transfer station or on a bulky sticker.

City cost & eligibility
No town bag or container service is published. A bag product is sold privately and would be handled by whatever contractor sells it, so the town routes a household load to the transfer station by weight or to the bulky sticker, and a property with a permanent dumpster needs a public health permit.
When & how
Not collected by the town. Take the load to the transfer station during its open hours, book the bulky sticker, or arrange a private container or bag service.
Get it ready
Check the transfer station refusals before loading, because construction and demolition material, masonry debris, stumps, sweepings and excavated material are not accepted there either, and the town points a construction load at a private hauler instead.

Weekly trash and recycling carts

Accepted with preparation

Trash and recycling ride the weekly curbside carts, both with a closed lid rule, and the household pays an annual cart fee on the water and sewer bill.

City cost & eligibility
$200 for the annual trash and recycling fee for one set of carts, billed in quarterly instalments as a separate line on the water and sewer bill, with additional carts charged separately. Residential properties issued a set of trash and recycling carts, with the additional cart charges paid by the property owner who requests them.
When & how
Weekly collection on the household service day, with all carts and any stickered bulky item at the curb by 7 a.m.
Get it ready
Bag the trash so it does not blow around, close both lids, and keep out of the carts anything that will not fit with the lid closed, because the overflow is not collected. Keep recyclables out of the trash cart and trash, plastic bags, fabric, yard waste, electronics and Styrofoam out of the recycling cart, and place the carts about three feet from trees, poles, hydrants, mailboxes, boxes and cars with the handle toward the house.

Right item.
Right place.

Both carts out by 7 a.m. with the lids closed

Trash and recycling are collected weekly, and everything has to be at the curb by 7 a.m. Bag the trash, close both lids, and keep out anything that will not fit, because overflow is not collected. Set the carts about three feet from trees, poles, hydrants, mailboxes, utility boxes and cars, and leave the handle toward the house.

Sticker on the item, call the day before

The bulky pickup starts with the sticker rather than the call. Buy it at the Clerk's Office, the Business Division at 2 Burroughs Street or online, put it on the item, and call the number printed on it the day before your trash day to schedule. The item goes to the curb by 7 a.m. on the collection day with metal and rigid plastic kept out of the set out.

Open barrels or paper bags on the posted weeks

Yard waste goes out on the posted weeks in open barrels carrying a free yard waste sticker, kept apart from the trash, or in paper yard waste bags of no more than 45 gallons or 50 pounds. Branches and twigs are bundled and tied and brush stays inside the four foot and four inch limits. Any other week the material goes to the transfer station behind a brush sticker.

Hard hat, safety vest and a card before the scale

A resident taking a load to the transfer station needs proof of residency, a hard hat and a safety vest, and a credit or debit card, because no other payment is accepted. Household trash and miscellaneous metal are weighed, a television, monitor, appliance, furniture item or tire carries a flat charge, and construction and demolition material, masonry debris, stumps, sweepings and excavated material are refused outright.

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Self haul in Danvers means the town transfer station. A resident with proof of residency can weigh household trash and miscellaneous metal at seventeen cents a pound, or pay a flat charge for a television, computer monitor, appliance, furniture item or tire. Mercury bearing products, button and rechargeable batteries, empty propane tanks and American flags are free, while alkaline batteries go in the regular trash. The station asks every resident who disposes of trash or metal to bring a hard hat and a safety vest and takes credit or debit cards only. It opens Monday to Saturday from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. with entry by 3:45 p.m., and it refuses construction and demolition material, masonry debris, stumps, sweepings and excavated material, so a renovation load goes to the private hauler the town names. Yard waste has its own overflow route here behind a brush sticker, and condo and apartment residents without curbside pickup can bring recycling to the same site.

Your questions.
Straight answers.

Prices, timing and the details that matter at your address.

How much does pickup cost?

Choose your items to see the exact price. A standard sofa is $79 first and $29 additional. The highest first-item price applies once; every remaining item uses its additional-item price. Loading, transportation and disposal are included. Review any applicable sales tax and the final total before payment.

Can I book a pickup for today?

Book by 2pm at your pickup address for same-day pickup, where available. Choose from the dates shown at checkout. Your booking is for a pickup day, and we text you when your hauler is on the way.

Do my items need to be outside when I book?

You can book while your items are still inside. Arrange any indoor carrying and have everything outside and accessible according to your confirmation. We load and haul it away from there. Contact us before booking if your property has restricted access.

How do I book a bulky item pickup in Danvers?

Buy the town sticker first at the Clerk's Office, the Business Division at 2 Burroughs Street or online, then call the number printed on the sticker the day before your trash day. Put the sticker on the item and have it at the curb by 7 a.m. on the collection day.Official guidance

How does a refrigerator leave a Danvers address?

On the town bulky sticker, because refrigerators, dehumidifiers and air conditioners are named as refrigerant appliances on the same list as washers, dryers and water heaters. Buy the sticker, call the number printed on it the day before your trash day, and have the unit at the curb by 7 a.m. The transfer station is the alternative route, at its own charge.Official guidance

Can a mattress go out with the Danvers bulky sticker?

No. Mattresses and box springs left the bulky item program, so bedding goes through the town's mattress recycling partner, which collects at the curb twice a month for a per item charge with a mattress and box spring counting as two items. Donation, the retailer on a new purchase and a private hauler are the alternatives the town names.Official guidance

When does Danvers collect yard waste?

About eleven times a year on posted weeks, with the material in open barrels carrying a free yard waste sticker or in paper bags of no more than 45 gallons or 50 pounds, and branches bundled and tied within the four foot and four inch limits. Any other week, yard waste and brush go to the transfer station behind a brush sticker.Official guidance

How does the Danvers bulky item pickup work?

A household buys a town sticker first, then calls the number printed on it the day before the trash day to schedule, and puts the stickered item at the curb by 7 a.m. on the collection day. Furniture, carpet, white goods, refrigerant appliances, a gas grill without its tank, a push mower, a snow blower and even a television are on the sticker list, while mattresses, metal items, rigid plastic and construction debris are not.Official guidance

What does Danvers refuse at the curb?

Mattresses and box springs are off the bulky list and go to the town's mattress recycling partner. Metal items, rigid plastic and construction debris are not collected curbside at all, and the recycling cart refuses appliances, batteries, textiles, cords, paint, Styrofoam, tires and yard waste. Metal and rigid plastic go to the transfer station, and the town points construction work at a private hauler.Official guidance
