The City has partnered with Better Futures to collect certain bulky reusable and recyclable items curbside with the goal of reducing the amount of waste going to landfills. Piloted in 2022, the service is now available citywide and items will be picked up on regular garbage days during the first full week of each month.
Who is eligible?
All residential City solid waste customers can take advantage of the program.
How to schedule a pick-up
Pick-up must be scheduled at least two days in advance of your garbage day. To schedule, call Better Futures at 612-353-5400 or visit blm.mn/better.
What can be picked up?
In good working condition only: furniture, rugs, toilets, sinks and certain building materials. Furniture must be free of tears, stains and pet hair. These items will be reused.
Any condition: grills, bicycles, large appliances and mattresses. These items will be reused or recycled, depending on their condition. Quantity limits apply. Get all program details and a full list of items accepted at blm.mn/bulkies.
