Bulky item pickup in Lynn, MA
Curbside pickup with Capitol Waste
Call Capitol's Lynn line at 1-855-533-3400 or use 'Schedule Pickup' at capitolws.com and pick Lynn. The DPW page lists $20 per item and the 2026-27 calendar PDF says $22, so confirm the price when you book.
Two rules trip people up. Items for collection cannot be placed on the ground, and mattresses stopped being accepted at Bulky Item Days on November 1, 2022. Capitol charges per item, so ask how it will count a sectional or a set of chairs.
Free Bulky Item Days at Reworld
The city runs free Bulky Item Days on set Saturdays at 247 Commercial St, 8 a.m. to noon. You bring the load yourself, so you need a pickup or a borrowed trailer. The site refuses construction material and wood, and mattresses are no longer accepted there.
The 2026-27 calendar shows October 10 has passed and November 7 is next. The DPW calendar PDF lists the later dates, and a missed Saturday means waiting weeks. Bring a driver's license, and no commercial vehicles or U-Haul trucks are allowed.
Heavy pieces on Lynn stairs
A solid-wood dresser or sleeper sofa on a third-floor porch is the usual reason people book us for a single bulky item. Our crew brings straps and dollies, takes railings off if needed and does not charge for floors. A regular dresser is $99, a large dresser $139 and a couch $139. Anything under $159 total is lifted to the $159 minimum, so it makes sense to add every piece you want gone to the same visit.
Send two photos with the booking, one of the piece and one of the stairs, and the quote is the price you pay.
