Junk removal in Colorado Springs

The handiest guide to getting rid of big stuff around Colorado Springs is a booklet from the county government. Its recycling directory, updated in June 2026, sorts the local options item by item, from appliances to mattresses. It lists three landfills and six transfer stations in the area, from Republic Services and Waste Management to Woodmen Dump. For curbside recycling, it tells you to call your own trash company.

Mattresses take some planning. The county's household hazardous waste facility on Akers Drive takes them only at its Clean Sweep events, and on a normal day it turns away furniture, carpet and microwaves too. If your bed is in good shape, the directory lists Partners in Housing and One Nation Walking Together. Both take queen-size or smaller mattresses that are new or gently used, with no rips, stains or holes.

Electronics are a different story. The Akers Drive facility takes TVs, computers, monitors, printers and game consoles from households in this county and neighboring Teller County, as long as you bring proof that you live here, like a photo ID or a lease. Loads of 50 items or more need an appointment.

Old TVs come with a size cap. A tube set has to be 20 inches or smaller, and a flat screen 40 inches or smaller, with no more than five of each kind of electronic per household per year. Anything bigger waits for one of the county's Clean Sweep dates.

Questions homeowners ask

How accurate is a photo estimate?
It’s a ballpark, not a quote. A photo gives us a good read on how much there is, but a hauler who sees it in person will always be more precise. Use our number as the range to expect before you start calling around.
How is junk removal priced?
By how much of a truck your stuff fills — a few items cost far less than a full truckload. Heavy or special items like appliances and mattresses add a disposal fee.
Do you handle big or heavy items?
Most haulers do — appliances, furniture, mattresses, construction debris. Let us know in the quick questions so the ballpark includes the disposal fees.
Is this really free?
Yes. No signup, no credit card, no spam. We only make money if you choose to connect with a local pro — and that’s up to you.
What photo works best?
One shot that shows the whole pile, or the full room, gives the best read on how much there is.
