How does Medford's bulky-item pickup work?

In Medford, bulky items that don't fit in the trash cart, like chairs, tables and shelves, are scheduled and paid for per item through the city's hauler, WM, and picked up on your recycling day. The city's waste and recycling page explains the program.

Paying and scheduling item by item makes sense for one or two pieces. For a full house, a cluttered basement or a pile of renovation debris, one crew visit is simpler: one price, everything gone the same trip.

Where in Medford do we work?

Everywhere in the city: Medford Square, West Medford, South Medford, Wellington, Fulton Heights, Lawrence Estates, Hillside and North Medford, plus the streets around the Tufts campus. Medford borders Malden, so most of the city is a short drive from our base.

Homes near the Middlesex Fells

North Medford and the neighborhoods along the Fells have large, older trees close to houses. After wind, snow or ice storms, fallen limbs on roofs, fences, cars and driveways are a common sight in these neighborhoods, and clearing them quickly keeps a small problem from becoming roof or fence damage. Take photos before anything is moved if you plan to file an insurance claim, and keep clear of any wires the limb is touching until the utility has been called.

Houses being sold or settled

When a long-held family home is being prepared for sale, the job is usually everything at once: basement, attic, garage, furniture and the yard. We clear it in as few visits as possible so the house is ready for the realtor.

Renovation debris

Medford's older single-families and two-families see a lot of kitchen, bath and basement remodeling. Drywall, tile, old cabinets and lumber can't go out with the trash, so we can come at the end of the tear-out, or do the tear-out ourselves, and take it all.

Student and rental turnover

Around Tufts, leases often end in late spring and at the end of August. Landlords can call us to clear what tenants leave behind before the next move-in.
