Ready for that machine to go? Leave it at the curb and it can be gone today. Choose your equipment, see the exact price and book by 2pm for same-day pickup.
A new use for the same space, once the old machine is outside and gone.
Room for what comes next
Your space can have a new purpose.
A home office. Room for a guest. A little more floor to enjoy. When an old machine is in the way, a clear pickup plan makes the next step easier.
The room is changing.
Book the equipment you are ready to let go of, whether it is one exercise bike or several machines. See the total before making the plan.
A replacement is coming.
Check whether your retailer includes removal. If the old treadmill is still your responsibility, give it a pickup day of its own.
It is not making the move.
Settle the price online, arrange to have it outside, and follow the pickup through text updates and completion photos. One less thing to coordinate before the keys change hands.
Choose by the type of equipment. A brand name does not mean a different item, but a walking pad and a full treadmill do.
Treadmill, walking pad or commercial model?
Household treadmill includes folding home models with a tall console. Choose Walking pad for a compact under-desk model, or Commercial treadmill for a large gym machine. All equipment opens those choices.
An exercise bike, elliptical or rower
Spin, upright, recumbent and air bikes all use Exercise bike, including Peloton and other brands. One elliptical includes its connected base, handles and pedals. Rowing machines and Pilates reformers have their own choices.
Weights, racks and benches
Add together the pounds of loose dumbbells, kettlebells, plates and barbells. Free weights are priced in 10 lb units, rounding the combined weight up. For example, 25 lb uses three units. Add a stand, rack or bench separately if it is going too.

A machine can be too heavy or awkward for a solo move. Arrange suitable help for indoor carrying, stairs or any dismantling needed to reach the outdoor pickup spot.
A pickup day is not an exact arrival window. Tell us before booking about a shared loading area, restricted outdoor access or equipment whose size or setup you are unsure how to select.
Your place. One easy pickup plan.
A house, a condo or an apartment. Choose an accessible outdoor spot that works for your property. You arrange the move outside; we take it from there.
Measure doors and turns, and check the manufacturer’s moving instructions. Folding and moving methods vary by model. Have any required disassembly handled before pickup; we start outside.

Book a day you can be ready.
Choose from the available pickup dates before moving the machine out. Follow the readiness instructions in your confirmation. Book by 2pm at the pickup address for same-day pickup.

Make the equipment easy to identify.
Place the booked equipment in an accessible outdoor spot. Keep any separated parts together, add a photo and clear location notes to your order, and leave the approach clear.
You’re in the loop. Until it’s gone.
Confirmation when you book. A heads-up before arrival. Photos when it’s done.
Exercise equipment is not named on the Lakewood cleanup or station lists, so a treadmill or weight machine has to be confirmed before it is loaded.
City cost & eligibility
No retained Lakewood page names exercise equipment and no fee is published, so confirm with the city at (253) 983-7705 or with the station whether a machine is treated as furniture or as material the transfer station charges by weight.
When & how
Call ahead before a Community Cleanup weekend or a transfer station trip, then follow whichever route the city or the station confirms.
Get it ready
Strip the console and any loose weights so the frame is as light as possible, fold the deck where the manufacturer allows it, bag any loose parts because loose items are refused at the cleanup, and keep the machine out of the recycling cart.
The city contracts Waste Connections, trading locally as LeMay Pierce County Refuse, for garbage services, and the local office is at 4111 192nd Street East in Tacoma on (253) 875-5053. Residential garbage, recycling and food and yard waste collection all run through that contract, with recycling available wherever garbage pickup is offered, and questions about carts, service days and missed collections go to the hauler rather than to the city.
Two free cleanup weekends a year carry the bulky load
The city runs a Community Cleanup once in the spring and once in the fall at the Lakewood Transfer Station, 3869 94th St SW, and the fall 2026 event runs Saturday October 24 and Sunday October 25 from 8 a.m. to 1:45 p.m. with the last vehicle admitted at 1:45 p.m. It is free for Lakewood residents who show a utility bill or identification, and the accepted list covers tires off their rims, bicycles, furniture, grills, appliances, recyclables and bagged garbage. The rules are strict: a five minute unload limit, no box vans or vehicles taller than 7 feet, trailers no larger than 4 feet by 8 feet, no unsafe loads, proper footwear, self unloading up a steep ramp and everything loose bagged. Mattresses, electronics, paint and hazardous material, yard waste, construction waste, lumber over 8 feet, concrete, auto parts, propane tanks, donations and commercial waste are all refused.
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.

Self haul to a transfer station
A household with a mattress, construction debris, yard waste or any load the cleanup weekends refuse.
Cost & conditions
The city lists the stations but publishes no gate fee for Lakewood customers, and the Tacoma utility sets its rates by container size for its own customers, so confirm the charge for the load at the station before travelling.
Arrange it
Take the load to the Tacoma Recovery and Transfer Center at 3510 S Mullen Street, open seven days a week from 8 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., or to the Hidden Valley station in Puyallup or Thurston Waste and Recovery in Lacey.
A self haul route rather than a kerbside collection, with fees that are not published on the retained pages, and the Tacoma household hazardous waste facility is closed Tuesday to Thursday.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Exercise equipment removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Lakewood.
How much does exercise equipment removal cost in Lakewood?+
A household treadmill is $159 as the first item and $85 additional. An elliptical is $159 first and $85 additional; an exercise bike is $119 first and $40 additional. Choose all your items to see the combined price. Loading, transportation and disposal are included, with any applicable sales tax shown before payment.
Can you pick up a treadmill or exercise bike today?+
Book by 2pm in the pickup address’s local time for same-day pickup. Available dates appear at checkout. Have the equipment outside and accessible according to your confirmation. You receive pickup updates and completion photos; we book a day rather than an exact appointment time.
Will you dismantle my treadmill or carry it out of the basement?+
Dropcurb pickup starts outside. Arrange indoor carrying, stairs and any dismantling needed to get your equipment out before pickup. Check the moving instructions for your exact model and arrange suitable help. We load and haul away the equipment from an accessible outdoor spot.
Which option covers a Peloton, spin bike or recumbent bike?+
Choose Exercise bike for one stationary bike, including spin, upright, recumbent and air bikes. Peloton and other brands use the same stationary-bike choice. A treadmill, walking pad and outdoor bicycle are different items, so select their matching options.
How do I book free weights, a weight rack or a bench?+
Enter the combined weight in pounds for your dumbbells, kettlebells, plates and barbells. Booking rounds that total up to the next 10 lb unit: 25 lb uses three units. Stands, racks and benches are separate items and do not include the loose weights. Add each one that is going.
Will Lakewood take a treadmill?+
No Lakewood page names exercise equipment, so the item has to be confirmed. The Community Cleanup accepts furniture, grills, bicycles and appliances but publishes a specific accepted list rather than a general bulky allowance, and the city otherwise sends large items to a transfer station. Call the city or the station before loading the machine.Official guidance
Who collects Lakewood garbage and recycling?+
Waste Connections, trading locally as LeMay Pierce County Refuse, collects under the city contract, with the local office at 4111 192nd Street East in Tacoma on (253) 875-5053. The residential service covers weekly garbage plus recycling and food or yard waste collection, with recycling available wherever garbage pickup is offered, and the contract does not include a kerbside bulky item collection, which is why the city runs the free cleanup weekends instead.Official guidance
What are the rules for the Lakewood Community Cleanup?+
The cleanup runs twice a year at the Lakewood Transfer Station on 94th St SW, and the fall 2026 event is Saturday October 24 and Sunday October 25 from 8 a.m. to 1:45 p.m. with the last vehicle admitted at that time. It is free for Lakewood residents who show a utility bill or identification. Participants get five minutes to unload, must come in a vehicle under 7 feet tall with no box van and a trailer no larger than 4 feet by 8 feet, unload without help up a steep ramp, wear proper footwear and bag every loose item, and unsafe vehicles may be cited.Official guidance
