Bulky Item Collection Program to begin mid-May 2012

4/12/2012 - Bulky Item Collection Program to begin mid-May 2012

The City of Portland will begin a new curbside Bulky Item Collection service for City residents beginning mid-May 2012.

The new program will allow residents to order City of Portland tags (stickers) to be placed on their pre-approved bulky items. Residents will then put the eligible bulky items curbside on their regular trash/recycling day to be collected and disposed of safely and appropriately by collection crews.

Please do not place items out for collection until you have received an official City Bulky Item tag. Items placed curbside without the approved City tag will be reported to the Sanitary Compliance Officer for appropriate action and subject to violation of City Code - Chapter 12.

Alternative options for disposal or recycling of bulky items are using a local resource such as freecycle or craigslist.

** Please check back regularly for updated program information. More information will be posted as it becomes available. **
