Bulky Item Pickup

Each residence will be provided one bulky item pickup each calendar year at no charge with a volume not to exceed either 2.5 cubic yards or 100 pounds. Each additional 2.5 cubic yards/100 pounds will be charged $40. Please fill out our online form or call 309.524.2400. Once a request is received, either online or by phone, items will be picked up within seven working days and could be as early as 6:30 a.m. the next business day.  

Additional bulky item pickups can be scheduled upon pre-payment of $40 per each additional 2.5 cubic yards/100 pounds of bulky waste.  Payments can be made in person at the Finance Office, 1630 8th Avenue or with a debit/credit card by calling 309.524.2070.

Residents can take a truck load of refuse or yard waste to the drop off site at the Upper Rock Island County Landfill, 17201 20th Avenue North, East Moline, Illinois, for $25 per load plus tax.  (Proof of Moline residency required.)
