Bulky item pickup in Dracut

How to book the free pickup
The town's FAQ says residents must pre-schedule with the vendor. Call Casella at 603-898-3680 or email onlineservicerequest@casella.com to book. Collection is townwide on one day a week, for example Fridays.
Accepted items include couches, loveseats, bureaus, desks, tables, bed frames, headboards, mirrors and windows with all glass taped, entertainment centers broken down, and wood file cabinets. Carpets and rugs must be cut, tied and under 50 pounds, up to six rolls.
What the town will not pick up
The excluded list is long: bathtubs, box springs, construction and demolition materials, electronics such as CRTs, mattresses, pressure-treated wood, sinks, swing sets, toilets, treadmills and white goods. Appliances and CRTs carry a separate fee ($47 per item since July 2026). Waste-ban items such as construction, building and hazardous waste materials are not picked up under the state bans.
For most households, the problem is the one-item rule: a living room set is three pieces and takes three weeks, and a bed frame, dresser and desk from a bedroom take as long. Anything left at the curb from an earlier week should not stay out, since you may only put out the item you registered.
When a hauler is faster
If you are clearing a room, a bulky item at a time is slow and leaves pieces at the curb in the weather. JunkRun prices the whole job: sofa $139, loveseat $89, dresser $99 to $139, table $79, bed frame $109, bookcase $49 to $79. A half trailer is $319. The minimum is $159.
We carry from basements and second floors, and we also take the items on the excluded list, such as a treadmill or a swing set, priced from the trailer load.
