DSNY Launches New Appointment Service to Schedule Large Bulk Pickups
The New York City Department of Sanitation (DSNY) has launched a program to help more efficiently collect large non-recyclable bulky items such as sofas, mattresses, and large wooden furniture. The new service is designed for items that are larger than four (4) feet by three (3) feet that can be lifted by two workers and fit inside a Sanitation collection truck.

New Yorkers can now arrange for timely bulk pickup appointments online at nyc.gov/bulk or by calling 311.

This service does not apply to items that require special handling, such as air conditioners, refrigerators, TVs, computers, and other electronics. To learn how to properly recycle or dispose of those items, visit  nyc.gov/dsny  or call 311.

Also, metal, glass and rigid plastic items, including bed frames, patio furniture, and filing cabinets, should still be placed out for recycling collection after 4 p.m. the night before your scheduled recycling day.
  
Of course, before getting rid of these items, if possible, the City encourages residents to donate their items and furniture. To find convenient donation centers and non-profit partners, visit  nyc.gov/donate .
