Sometimes you may have an item, like a mattress or couch, too big for normal trash collection. You can arrange for Coast Waste Management to pick up these items.

The charge is $35 for the first item, $5 for each additional item.

In my area, pickups are on Saturdays. You have to call one day in advance.

Call Coast Waste Management at: (760)929-9400.

The City of Carlsbad sponsors a "bulky item" pickup 4 times a year. The first one for 2006 is January 28th. See the City of Carlsbad web site posting for details and how to make an appointment
