What Billerica handles and what it does not
Billerica trash and recycling is picked up Monday through Friday by Waste Management. Bulk items are a separate call to 800-972-4545 and cost $30 each for a table, chair, couch or dresser, $30 for a toilet, sink or door, and $30 for up to four rolls of carpet. Refrigerators and air conditioners are $35, other appliances $30, and a TV or computer is $50 up to 24 inches or $60 above that. Those prices run from July 1, 2026 to June 30, 2028.
The price list says outright that the service is not for clean-outs, and construction and demolition waste is not accepted. Mattresses and box springs go through UTEC at $40 each under the town notice, so confirm the price when you book.
Neighbourhoods, houses and getting a truck in
Billerica is a town of villages: North, East and South Billerica, Pinehurst and the Nutting Lake area. Most streets are lined with Colonials, Capes, raised ranches and split-entries with driveways, so loading from a garage or basement stairwell is straightforward and nobody has to fight for street space.
The housing mix is why jobs here are often larger than one item. A downsized split-entry can hold a full garage, a finished basement and a shed. The town's per-item program is built for a couch or two, not a whole level of a house, so those jobs are priced by the trailer load here: $209 for a quarter, $319 for a half and $519 for a full trailer.
Pickup rules that catch people out
Because collection happens five days a week, putting a bulk item out early is the usual mistake: the town asks for after 4 pm the day before your scheduled pickup. Yard waste has its own limited window, six fall weeks ending December 4, 2026, and there is no town drop-off for it. One walk-in drop-off the town runs is the hazardous waste day at the DPW yard, 250 Boston Road, on a third Saturday in May and October. Accepted items are on the town's flyer, so call before loading the car, and expect nothing for construction scrap.

- Billerica sits in the Greater Lowell area of Middlesex County, bordered by Lowell, Chelmsford, Bedford, Burlington, Wilmington and Tewksbury. It is roughly 20 to 25 miles north-northwest of Melrose by road, close to I-495 and Route 3A.

- Homes
- Mostly single-family Colonials, Capes, raised ranches and split-entries on 10,000-square-foot-plus lots, with condo complexes along Route 3A and near North Billerica station. Town research notes call out whole-house cleanouts that often exceed one load. Source: Town of Billerica trash guide and Roviq town research.
- Seasonal notes
- Leaves come down in late October and heavy wet snow in January keeps curbside piles from being picked up cleanly.
- Access and parking
- Subdivision streets with driveways make loading easy. Waste Management collects Monday through Friday, so bulk items should not go to the curb before 4 pm the day before a scheduled pickup. A street dumpster placement rule was not found on town pages; ask DPW at 978-671-1313 ext. 2.
Landmarks: Middlesex Canal Museum, North Billerica MBTA station, Nutting Lake, Billerica Town Common, Faulkner Mills area.
