A clear count. An exact price.

Count the bags and boxes, not everything inside.

A few simple choices turn a mixed pile into a clear booking. No need to estimate how much of a truck it might fill.

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.

Bulk items and special furniture

Accepted with preparation

Bulk items go out on the second garbage day of the week, up to four items a week, and each material has its own preparation rule that counts as one bulk item.

City cost & eligibility
The town publishes no per item or per load charge for a bulk set-out, and the only fee document it links is the facility disposal schedule, so confirm whether a fee applies to a specific load with the town before a heavy cleanout.
When & how
Put the items out on the household's second garbage day, which the town gives as Thursday or Friday, keeping to a maximum of four bulk items that week, at the kerb the night before or by 6:00am on the pickup day.
Get it ready
Match each item to its own rule: furniture counts as one item with drawers left inside dressers, bedding must be dismantled, carpet and rugs are cut into 6 foot lengths, rolled and tied under 50 lbs per roll, construction debris from homeowner do-it-yourself work goes in bags or containers under 50 lbs with nothing above the rim of a 32 gallon pail and bundles no larger than 4 feet by 2 feet by 2 feet, pallets must be cut in half, windows must have the glass taped on both sides, and glass, mirrors and ceramics must be wrapped, taped and marked GLASS.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

Twice weekly trash, one recycling day and one bulk day

Trash is collected twice a week, with the second garbage day falling on a Thursday or Friday, recycling comes every Wednesday and alternates between plastic or metal and paper or cardboard, and bulk items ride the household's second garbage day, which is Thursday or Friday, with a maximum of four bulk items a week. Yard waste is collected on select Sundays with a published calendar. Everything goes to the kerb the night before or by 6:00am on the pickup day, and recyclables must be loose in the bin because plastic bags are not allowed. Residents can ask for a free recycling sticker or buy a CURBY can.

Each bulk item has to be dressed for collection

The town counts bulk items one at a time, so preparation decides whether a piece is picked up. Furniture such as couches without recliners, chairs, tables, shelves and dressers counts as one item each, with drawers left inside dressers, and bedding including mattresses, box springs, headboards and wood frames must be dismantled. Carpet and rugs are cut into six foot lengths, rolled and tied at under 50 lbs per roll, pallets must be cut in half with each half counting as an item, and windows must have the glass taped on both sides. Glass, mirrors and ceramics are wrapped, taped and marked GLASS or placed in a sealed box labelled GLASS. Construction and demolition debris is accepted from homeowner do-it-yourself projects only, in bags or containers under 50 lbs with nothing above the rim of a 32 gallon pail and bundles no larger than 4 feet by 2 feet by 2 feet. Auto parts on the curbside route take non-metallic plastic, rubber and fabric form only, with fluids drained, under 50 lbs and no metal parts. Tires are not a curbside item: they go to the Solid Waste Management Facility, which takes no more than four residential tires a day with the rims removed and refuses commercial tires.

A Brookhaven household with up to four bulk items such as furniture, bedding, carpet, homeowner construction debris, doors, fencing, glass, pallets, pools or non-metallic auto parts.

Cost & conditions
The town publishes no per item charge for the bulk set-out and links only the facility disposal fee schedule, so confirm whether a fee applies to a particular load before a large cleanout.
Arrange it
Put the prepared items out on the second garbage day of the week, Thursday or Friday, with no more than four bulk items that week, at the kerb the night before or by 6:00am on the pickup day.

Four items a week, each item counted individually, construction debris only from homeowner do-it-yourself projects, non-metallic auto parts only, and scrap metal, sofa beds and televisions excluded in favour of a scheduled town crew pickup.

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Self hauling in Brookhaven runs through town facilities, because the curbside routes are limited by item counts. The Solid Waste Management Facility takes residential drop-offs of boats, concrete, construction and renovation debris, refuse, tires, waste oil and yard waste during hours of operation, and the load has to arrive in a non-commercial car, single-axle trailer, pickup or van, with charges following the town's published disposal fee schedule. Leaves are free at the Manorville Compost Facility when they are loose or in paper bags, and both leaves and brush are free at the Solid Waste Management Facility. For material the facility does not take, the streets handle it in counts rather than by weight: up to four bulk items a week on the second garbage day, prepared to the town's item rules with mattresses dismantled, carpet cut and tied into six foot rolls, pallets halved, windows taped on both sides and glass wrapped and marked, and auto parts on the curb take non-metallic plastic, rubber and fabric pieces with fluids drained and no metal attached, while tires go to the Solid Waste Management Facility, which caps residential tires at four a day with the rims removed and refuses commercial tires. Yard waste runs separately on select Sundays, capped at 50 items and 50 lbs each with grass refused, and anything made of metal goes through the town's phone line: residents call 631-451-TOWN to arrange a town crew pickup for scrap metal, sofa beds and televisions. No rate is published for these collection routes, and the facility's fee schedule is a linked document, so every charge should be confirmed with the town.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

Bulk junk removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Brookhaven.

How much does bulk junk removal cost in Brookhaven?

A trash bag is $59 as the first item and $10 additional. A filled household box is $59 as the first item. Add your actual items and quantities to see the combined price before booking. Loading, transportation and disposal are included; any applicable sales tax is shown before payment.

Can you pick up bags of junk today?

Book by 2pm in the pickup address’s local time for same-day pickup. Available dates appear at checkout. Have the booked bags and boxes outside and accessible according to your confirmation. You receive pickup updates and completion photos; the booking is for a day rather than an exact arrival time.

How many bulk items can a Brookhaven home put out?

Four a week, on the second garbage day, which is Thursday or Friday, with each material prepared to its own rule and counted as a single item. Furniture counts one item each with drawers left in dressers, bedding must be dismantled and counts one item per piece, carpet and rugs are cut into six foot lengths, rolled, tied and kept under 50 lbs per roll, pallets must be cut in half with each half counting as an item, contractor debris is refused because only homeowner do-it-yourself construction debris is accepted, and scrap metal, sofa beds and televisions need the scheduled town crew pickup rather than a bulk slot.Official guidance

Can you pick up a small loose pile of household junk?

Yes. Estimate how many trash bags the small household pile would fill, and bag or box as much as possible. Select furniture and other larger items separately. There is no extra charge just because the pile is loose. Send a photo first if the count or contents are unclear. A household Dumpster Bag choice does not accept construction debris.

Can I book bags, boxes and furniture together?

Yes. Select the bags and boxes, then add each larger item using its own catalog choice. The booking shows one combined price for the selected items. Move everything to an accessible outdoor spot before pickup; indoor carrying and sorting are not included. Keep anything you want to retain apart from the booked items and identify what goes in your photos and notes.

How does a Brookhaven couch or mattress leave the house?

On the second garbage day of the week, which the town gives as Thursday or Friday, as one of a maximum of four bulk items per week. Furniture such as a couch without recliners counts as a single bulk item with the drawers left inside any dresser, while bedding including mattresses, box springs, headboards and wood frames has to be dismantled and also counts as one bulk item each. Items go out the night before or by 6:00am on the pickup day, and no charge is published for the set-out.Official guidance

Who collects Brookhaven trash, recycling and bulk items?

Town crews do. Trash is collected twice a week, with the second garbage day falling on a Thursday or Friday, recycling every Wednesday alternating between plastic or metal and paper or cardboard, bulk items on the household's second garbage day with a maximum of four items a week, and yard waste on select Sundays. Everything goes out the night before or by 6:00am on the pickup day, recyclables stay loose because plastic bags are not allowed in the bin, and residents can request a free recycling sticker or buy a CURBY can for their recyclables.Official guidance

How does Brookhaven handle metal and auto parts?

Scrap metal has its own route: the town asks residents to call 631-451-TOWN so a town crew can schedule a pickup, and sofa beds and televisions travel the same way rather than using the four item bulk allowance. The bulk route accepts auto parts only in plastic, rubber and fabric form, with the tires removed from the rims, all fluids drained, each item under 50 lbs and no metal parts at all, and the landfill accepts no more than four residential tires a day with the rims removed while refusing commercial tires outright.Official guidance
