Filled bags and boxes
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 and containers
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.
Furniture and other larger items
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.

Trash goes out in Town blue pay-as-you-throw bags and recycling in the Town tote, both at the curb by seven in the morning on the collection day.
City cost & eligibility
The Town sells the pay-as-you-throw blue bags and the cost of the bags is the trash charge, and the pages read do not publish the bag price, so confirm the current price with the Department of Public Works on 508-647-6550 or bulkytrash@natickma.org. The bulky pickup and select item fees below are the published charges.
When & how
Weekly trash and alternate week recycling on the address's collection day, with both at the curb no later than seven in the morning on the same day. The Town publishes an annual collection calendar and points to a waste app for holiday changes.
Get it ready
Use only approved Town pay-as-you-throw blue bags for trash and the Town-provided recycling tote for recyclables, because material in anything else will not be picked up. Break down or bag anything small enough to fit in a blue bag and put it out on the regular trash day rather than booking a bulky pickup, and remember that construction and remodeling material is refused on every Town route.
One booking covers up to five bulky items for a single published price, scheduled in advance and collected on a Monday.
City cost & eligibility
$50 per pickup for a maximum of five bulky items, so one item and five items cost the same. Natick residents who currently receive curbside trash and recycling collection. Bulky pickup is not available for businesses or apartment buildings, and a small group of select items is charged separately per item instead.
When & how
Pickups run on Mondays, except a Monday holiday and the Mondays during fall leaf collection. A request submitted by three in the afternoon on Thursday is collected the following Monday, a holiday date adds an additional week, and the order is first come, first served, so a household whose request exceeds the capacity limit is emailed a new date.
Get it ready
Group the load so no pickup carries more than five items, because the price covers up to five whether one or five are booked, and break down or bag anything that will fit in a blue bag rather than adding it to a booking. Drain the oil and gas from a snow blower or lawn mower and remove the batteries, and take the doors off a refrigerator or freezer, because the Town lists those conditions with the accepted items. Payment is taken when the pickup is scheduled and refunds are not given afterwards.
Furniture is on the accepted bulky list, so a couch or dresser goes into the five item pickup rather than into a bag.
City cost & eligibility
Furniture belongs to the group that the single pickup price covers up to five items of, so the cost of a given booking depends on how many items it carries; the Town will confirm the booking and take payment when the pickup is scheduled, and refunds are not given afterwards.
When & how
Book the pickup in advance with the Department of Public Works, and expect the collection on the following Monday when the request goes in by three in the afternoon on Thursday.
Get it ready
Group the furniture with the rest of the load so the booking does not exceed five items, and break down or bag anything that fits in a blue bag so it can go out on the regular trash day instead. The Town lists couches, desks, dressers and entertainment centers among the accepted furniture, and a bed frame is accepted while a mattress follows its own per item fee.
A mattress or box spring is a select item with its own per item fee, charged separately from the five item pickup price.
City cost & eligibility
$35 per mattress or box spring, charged separately from the five item pickup price. Natick residents who receive curbside collection. The Town states that a household sending only select items pays the per item fee without the five item pickup charge, and that a split box spring counts as two box springs.
When & how
Book the pickup in advance and expect the collection on the Monday following a request submitted by three in the afternoon on Thursday, unless that Monday is a holiday or falls in fall leaf collection.
Get it ready
Count a split box spring as two items, because the Town charges per box spring, and note that a mattress carries the select item fee on its own even when it goes out without any other bulky item. Keep the set dry and out of the blue bags, which take household trash rather than a mattress.
Appliances are accepted bulky items, and a refrigerator or freezer goes out with its doors removed.
City cost & eligibility
Appliances belong to the group the single pickup price covers up to five items of, so the booking cost depends on how many items it carries; the Town takes payment when the pickup is scheduled and does not refund it afterwards.
When & how
Book the pickup in advance with the Department of Public Works for the next available Monday.
Get it ready
Remove the doors from a refrigerator or freezer and drain the oil and gas from a snow blower or lawn mower, because the Town lists those conditions with the accepted items, and remove the battery from anything that has one. The accepted appliance list covers stoves, refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners, dishwashers, washers, dryers, microwaves, vacuums and water coolers, while a water heater and a wheelbarrow are accepted as bulky items in their own right.
Computers and printers ride the five item bulky pickup, while televisions, laptops and monitors carry a separate per item fee and there is also an annual electronics collection event.
City cost & eligibility
The Town splits electronics across two prices: computers, printers, dehumidifiers and similar items sit in the group the single pickup price covers up to five items of, while a television, laptop or monitor carries its own separate per item fee. Contact the Department of Public Works on 508-647-6550 to confirm which applies and what the current figures are before booking.
When & how
Book the pickup in advance for a Monday, or watch for the annual electronics recycling event the Town's recycling committee posts on the website.
Get it ready
Wipe the personal data off a computer, laptop or smart television before it leaves the house, and note that the Town lists televisions, laptops and monitors among the select items that carry their own per item fee rather than the five item group. Break down or bag a small peripheral that fits in a blue bag, and keep electronics out of the recycling tote.
Exercise equipment is on the accepted bulky list, so a machine goes into the five item pickup.
City cost & eligibility
Exercise equipment sits in the group the single pickup price covers up to five items of, so the cost of a booking depends on how many items it carries; payment is taken when the pickup is scheduled and is not refunded afterwards.
When & how
Book the pickup in advance with the Department of Public Works for the next available Monday.
Get it ready
Take the machine down where it will come apart so it is easy to handle, and remove any battery before it goes out, because the Town lists bikes and scooters with a battery removal instruction and asks for batteries to be taken off powered equipment. Keep the machine out of the blue bags, which take household trash instead.
Any metal item can be taken to the Town recycling center free of charge.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. The Town states that any metal items can be brought to the recycling center free of charge.
When & how
Bring the metal to the Town recycling center, and confirm its opening hours with the Department of Public Works on 508-647-6550 before the trip.
Get it ready
Keep metal out of the blue trash bags so it can be recycled rather than landfilled, and put it in the free recycling center route the Town publishes. A household with a mixed load should still separate the metal item, because the Town treats a metal item as a free drop-off while other bulky items carry a booking fee.
Construction and remodeling material is not eligible for the bulky pickup, and the Town publishes a long refusal list covering it.
City cost & eligibility
The Town publishes no construction collection and states that construction or remodeling materials are not eligible for the bulky pickup, so the load has to go through a private container or haul that sets its own price.
When & how
Arrange a private container or haul before the work starts, because the Town provides no curbside route for the material.
Get it ready
Keep construction and remodeling material out of the blue bags, the recycling tote and any bulky booking. The Town's refusal list covers windows, doors, toilets, sinks, tubs, showers, vanities, flooring, demolition materials, insulation, asphalt, concrete, bricks, rock, dirt, lumber, railroad ties, plaster, sheet rock and tile, and it also refuses canoes, fence sections or posts, pianos, pool tables, swimming pools, tires and wooden swing sets.
Book the Monday pickup before the Thursday deadline
One booking covers up to five bulky items for a single published price, so group the load rather than booking items one at a time. Submit the request by three in the afternoon on Thursday and the collection falls on the following Monday, with a holiday pushing it an additional week, and the order is first come, first served, so a request beyond the capacity limit is re-dated by email. The Town takes payment when the pickup is scheduled and does not refund it afterwards, and it refuses construction or remodeling material in the booking.
Mattresses, box springs, televisions, laptops and monitors are select items with a separate per item fee, charged on top of the five item pickup price rather than inside it, because the Town pays for the disposal of those items under the changed regulations. A household sending only select items pays the per item fee without the pickup charge, and a split box spring counts as two box springs. Remove the door from a refrigerator or freezer and drain the oil and gas from outdoor power equipment before the collection.
Any metal item can be brought to the Town recycling center free of charge, which is a separate route from the paid bulky pickup. Sort metal out of a mixed load so it is not paid for twice, and confirm the center's hours with the Department of Public Works on 508-647-6550 before making the trip.
The bulky program is meant for items that will not fit in a Town pay-as-you-throw blue bag, so anything small enough to bag, or that can be broken down to fit, should go out on the regular trash day instead of into a paid booking. Break items down where that is possible, and keep recycling in the Town tote rather than in a bag, because material in the wrong container is not collected.
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.
Town of Natick Department of Public Works, Highway and Sanitation Division
Book the Town bulky pickup
A Natick household with up to five bulky items that will not fit in a pay-as-you-throw bag, such as furniture, appliances, exercise equipment or outdoor power equipment.
Cost & conditions
$50 per pickup for a maximum of five bulky items, with the price the same for one item or five. Residents who currently receive curbside trash and recycling collection from the Town, with select items charged separately per item.
Arrange it
Submit the request to the Department of Public Works by three in the afternoon on Thursday for the following Monday, pay when the booking is made, and set the items out on the collection day.
The service is not available to businesses or apartment buildings, no refund is given after payment, the pickup does not run on a Monday holiday or during fall leaf collection Mondays, and construction or remodeling material, canoes, fence sections, pianos, pool tables, swimming pools, tires and wooden swing sets are refused.
Town of Natick Department of Public Works, Highway and Sanitation Division
The select items are charged per item
A household with a mattress, box spring, television, laptop or monitor to get rid of.
Cost & conditions
$35 per select item, charged separately from the five item pickup price. Natick residents who receive curbside collection, with a household sending only select items paying the per item fee without the pickup charge.
Arrange it
Book the pickup with the Department of Public Works as usual and expect the select item fee to be added for each mattress, box spring, television, laptop or monitor.
The fee applies to each item, a split box spring counts as two, and the pickup still follows the Monday schedule with the Thursday deadline, so the booking rules are the same as for an ordinary bulky load.
Town of Natick Department of Public Works, Highway and Sanitation Division
Take metal to the Town recycling center
A household with a metal item that can be recycled rather than landfilled.
Cost & conditions
No charge. The Town states that any metal items can be brought to the recycling center free of charge.
Arrange it
Bring the metal to the Town recycling center during its opening hours, which the Department of Public Works confirms on 508-647-6550.
The free route is for metal, so a mixed load still needs the other material routed through the bags or a paid bulky booking, and the center's hours are not published on the pages read.
A household whose bulky collection is urgent or whose schedule does not match the Monday route.
Cost & conditions
The Town names private local waste hauling companies as an alternative but publishes no rate, so confirm the price and the accepted material directly with the company that is chosen.
Arrange it
Contact a private local waste hauling company that offers residential bulk waste collection and arrange the pickup on that company's schedule.
The rate and the accepted material are set by the company rather than the Town, and the Town's own refusal list for construction material and oversized items still describes what the Town route will take, so the hauler's terms have to be confirmed separately.
Town of Natick Department of Public Works, Highway and Sanitation Division
Watch for the annual electronics recycling event
A household with television sets, computers or other electronics that would rather use an event than a paid pickup.
Cost & conditions
The Town states that the recycling committee holds annual electronic recycling events and posts them on the website, but it does not publish a date or a fee on the page read, so check the Town site or call 508-647-6550 before planning around one.
Arrange it
Watch the Town website for the posted event date, then bring the electronics to the event on the terms it publishes.
The event runs on its own posted date rather than continuously, and any item the event does not take still has to go through a bulky booking or the private hauler route.
Self haul in Natick means the Town recycling center and the private haulers the Town names. Any metal item can be brought to the Town recycling center free of charge, which is a separate route from the paid bulky pickup, and the Department of Public Works on 508-647-6550 confirms the center's opening hours because the pages read do not publish them. Construction and remodeling material has no Town route at all: windows, doors, fixtures, flooring, insulation, asphalt, concrete, brick, rock, dirt, lumber, railroad ties, plaster, sheet rock and tile are all refused, along with canoes, fence sections or posts, pianos, pool tables, swimming pools, tires and wooden swing sets, so a project load needs a private container or hauler. A household whose bulky collection is urgent or whose schedule does not fit the Monday route can use one of the private local waste hauling companies the Town names, and the Town's recycling committee also holds an annual electronic recycling event that is posted on the website.
