Surrey, BC – Surrey residents can enjoy a clutter-free summer with the City’s free Large Item Pickup program. Residents who receive curbside collection are eligible for up to six free pickups per year, with an additional two pickups available for households with registered secondary suites.

It’s easy to schedule a Large Item Pickup by booking online at surrey.ca/largeitems or calling 604-590-7289 (press 3). Items placed at curbside without a Large Item Pickup booking may be considered illegally dumped and subject to fines.

“The Large Item Pickup program provides Surrey residents with a convenient and hassle-free way to dispose of bulky household items responsibly,” said Harry Janda, Manager, Contracts & Solid Waste. “From old furniture and appliances to mattresses and electronic waste, this program ensures that no unwanted items end up on our streets, alleys, or landfill so that Surrey residents can enjoy a clean, safe, and beautiful city, free of illegal dumping.”

Surrey also has two recycling and waste facilities where residents can dispose of unwanted items for free or low-cost. The new Central Surrey Recycling and Waste Centre located at the corner of 154 Street and 67 Avenue, provides a convenient drop-off location for recyclables such as appliances and mattresses, and garbage.

By booking a free Large Item Pickup or disposing of items at the recycling and waste facilities for free or low cost, residents can declutter their homes and keep their neighbourhoods clean.
