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.

The city Sanitation Division collects solid waste every week from a city-provided cart, and recycling is free and runs on the same day. Garbage has to be bagged and tied, the carts come from the city rather than the resident, and the monthly residential rate depends on the cart size.
City cost & eligibility
From $30 per month for residential waste service, with the thirty-two gallon bin at $30 whether it is a waste bin alone or a waste and recycling set and the ninety-six gallon bin at $32 either way, and a separate $30 cart switch out fee when a customer changes cart size. A residential address inside the city limits that has the city garbage service, billed monthly for the cart size.
When & how
Put the cart out before 7 a.m. on the collection day, with the bags tied inside it and the contents protected so wind cannot scatter them. Recycling goes out on the same day as the garbage, and yard waste shares the same assigned collection day every other week.
Get it ready
Use plastic garbage bags of 0.75 mil thickness or greater with the top tied, and keep acid, explosives, flammable liquids and any other dangerous material out of the cart. Rinse recyclables and keep food debris out of them, and keep the containers off the sidewalk.
The city will pick up bulky items such as furniture, mattresses, box springs, computers and televisions for a fee that the Environmental Service Supervisor assesses, published as a range that depends on the items going out.
City cost & eligibility
From $50 for for a bulky item pickup, with the published range running to $150 depending on the items and the final amount assessed by the Environmental Service Supervisor. A city sanitation customer who arranges the pickup in advance on 828-697-3084, which is the number for both the arrangement and the assessment.
When & how
Call Public Works on 828-697-3084 to arrange the bulky item pickup before anything goes to the curb, and put the items out where the crew directs.
Get it ready
Keep the load to items the city names as bulky, which includes furniture, mattresses, box springs, computers and televisions, and keep hazardous material, auto parts, construction material and yard waste out of it, because those have their own routes. Appliances and televisions carry their own published fees rather than the bulky item assessment.
The city collects appliances at the curb for a flat collection charge arranged by telephone, and the accepted list names a refrigerator or freezer with the doors removed along with a stove, a dishwasher, a washer, a dryer, a microwave and a water heater.
City cost & eligibility
$25 per appliance pickup, which the city states as a flat fee for collecting the unit at the curb. A city sanitation customer who calls 828-697-3084 to arrange the pickup.
When & how
Call 828-697-3084 to arrange the appliance pickup, then put the unit where the crew tells you.
Get it ready
Remove the doors from a refrigerator or freezer before the unit goes out, and keep the appliance out of the garbage cart. A television is not part of this list and carries its own disposal fee.
A television carries a disposal fee for the city to collect and dispose of it, because the city itself is charged at the county transfer station, and the county charges its own per item fee for a television, monitor or large floor mount copier that crosses the scales.
City cost & eligibility
$30 per television for the city to pick up and dispose of the set, with the county charging $20 for each television, monitor or large floor mount copier weighed at its own transfer station. A city sanitation customer who arranges the television pickup on 828-697-3084, or a household that takes the set to the county transfer station and pays the county's per item charge.
When & how
Call 828-697-3084 to arrange the city pickup, or take the set to the county Transfer Station on Transfer Station Drive during its posted hours, where it has to cross the scales.
Get it ready
Keep televisions and monitors out of the convenience center, which does not accept them, and out of the recycling cart. Erase anything stored on the set before it leaves the house.
Computers and accessories, stereo sets and speakers, telephones and cell phones and radios go to the Henderson County Convenience Center at no cost, and the city also collects computers as a bulky item for a fee.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. No charge at the Henderson County Convenience Center, which accepts computers and accessories, stereo sets and speakers, telephones and cell phones and radios, and no charge for the other residential electronics the county convenience center takes. The city's own bulky item pickup for a computer carries the assessed bulky item fee instead.
When & how
The convenience center takes the listed electronics Monday through Saturday, so drop them there during its posted hours, or arrange a city bulky item pickup on 828-697-3084.
Get it ready
Erase personal data before a device leaves the house, keep cords and accessories with their device, and keep televisions and monitors out of the convenience center because they are the one electronic item that has to cross the transfer station scales.
Special loads and bagged or containerized clean-outs
Accepted with preparation
A bag or container clean-out that is bigger than the standard cart service is billed on the city's special load schedule, which prices a large, medium or small load at a minimum plus the same per ton tipping charge.
City cost & eligibility
From $50 for as the minimum for a small special load, with the medium minimum at $100 and the large minimum at $150, each plus $65 a ton in tipping fees, and a $65 per load commercial extra fee. A city sanitation customer whose load is beyond the standard cart service and is priced by the city on the special load schedule rather than by item.
When & how
Call Public Works on 828-697-3084 to arrange a special load, and expect the city to price it by the size of the load and the weight tipped.
Get it ready
Keep hazardous material out of the load, because the city refuses acid, explosives and flammable liquids outright, and keep construction and building material separate, because that load belongs at the county transfer station instead. A load that is only a few bulky items is usually priced as a bulky item pickup rather than as a special load.
Garbage goes in plastic bags of at least 0.75 mil thickness with the top tied, and the tied bags go inside the city-provided cart before 7 a.m. on the collection day with the contents protected from wind. Recycling is free, runs on the same day, and covers mixed paper, cardboard, plastic bottles, metal cans and glass jars and bottles rinsed clean, with the containers kept off the sidewalk.
For a mattress, a couch, a computer or a television
Call Public Works on 828-697-3084 before anything goes to the curb. The city collects bulky items such as furniture, mattresses, box springs, computers and televisions for a fee that the Environmental Service Supervisor assesses, published as a range from fifty dollars to one hundred fifty dollars depending on the items, and it collects appliances for a twenty-five dollar fee and televisions for a thirty dollar disposal fee on the same number.
The Henderson County Transfer Station is at 191 Transfer Station Drive, open Monday through Saturday from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. and closed on holidays and in bad weather, and every load has to be secured with a strap or cover before entering or the county can turn it away. Construction and demolition debris is weighed and charged by the ton after the minimum scale fee, white goods and scrap metal cross at no charge, a county resident gets five free tires a year with proof of residency, and a television, monitor or large floor mount copier costs twenty dollars for each item that crosses the scales. The convenience center at 265 Convenience Center Drive takes electronics, batteries, oil and filters, cooking oil and the county's other recyclables at no charge.
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.
