How do I Schedule a Bulk Item Pickup in the Vancouver Area?

To schedule a bulk item pickup through the City of Vancouver, you can book your collection online at vancouver.ca or call 3-1-1. It is recommended to schedule your pickup at least one week in advance, though you must book at least 24 hours before your preferred date.

When preparing for a municipal pickup, please keep the following guidelines in mind:

  • Set-out Time: Place your items at the curb by 7:00 a.m. on the scheduled day, but no earlier than the evening before.
  • Item Limits: Each item must weigh less than 50 kg (110 lbs) and be under 6 feet in length. Branches should be bundled in 1.2-meter lengths.
  • Preparation: Remove doors from appliances like fridges or freezers and tape down any loose parts.
  • Accepted Items: The city typically accepts furniture, mattresses, appliances (without Freon), and scrap metal. They do not accept hazardous waste, electronics, tires, or construction debris.
