Reading for Los Angeles homeowners
Los Angeles junk removal guides, from the City's pickup to a full garage
Junk removal guides for Los Angeles homeowners and renters of houses. Each guide is a short read that answers a specific question before any call, covering the City's free options and the state's own mattress program. The City's own services get as much room as the paid route does, and each guide sits beside the service page it belongs with.

The City's programs
The City's bulky item pickup, step by step is a plain how-to on the request itself: who the City serves, what it accepts and refuses at the curb, and how to schedule the pickup through MyLA311 or the Customer Care Center. Free routes out of a Los Angeles house for large items is the companion short list of no-cost options, including the City's bulky pickup, its monthly Saturday drop-off events across five locations in the city, the Metal Appliance Pickup, and the once-a-year brush collection.
Where a large item from the house goes is a route-by-route guide for mattresses, appliances, furniture, old electronics and the pieces that have more than one way out of a house.
Prices and hiring
Mattresses and furniture
Mattress disposal in Los Angeles is a guide to the state's Mattress Stewardship Program, the drop-off locations the Mattress Recycling Council lists, and the City's bulky pickup for the households it serves. Furniture donation in Los Angeles summarizes what the City says about donating before scheduling a pickup. Between them, the two guides cover where a mattress or a piece of furniture can go once it leaves a Los Angeles house.
The paid route
For the paid route, the services hub brings the service pages together in one place: furniture, mattresses, appliances, garage and attic, estate work and bagged yard waste. Furniture removal answers the single-piece carry out, whether a sectional stuck against a kitchen wall or the dining chairs that have been sitting in a spare bedroom since the new set arrived.
Where to start
For a single-family household on LA Sanitation service, the City's bulky item pickup is the right first read: the City runs it at no additional charge and the pickup falls on the household's regular trash day. (818) 533-6275 is the business number for a household that would rather describe the pieces to a hauler than schedule with the City.
