What can go where in Topsfield
Junk, furniture and mattresses. Checked October 29, 2026. Rules change, so confirm with the town before you set anything out.
Curbside bulky and white-goods collection happens on four set Fridays a year. You register and pay online by 8 am the Thursday before; limit of 5 items per date; items at the curb by 7 am.
Fee: Bulk items $20 each.
Mattresses cannot go out with curbside trash or the bulky collection; they get a rejection sticker and are not picked up. The town lists recyclers (G. Mello Transfer Station in Georgetown, Green Mattress in North Andover, UTEC in Lowell, Tough Stuff in Fitchburg).
Appliances go out on the same four Friday collections, registered and paid online. Gas and oil must be removed first.
Fee: With Freon (refrigerators, freezers, A/C, dehumidifiers) $40; without Freon (washers, dryers, stoves, dishwashers, water heaters) and oversized metal $5.
TVs and computers are not allowed in curbside collection. The town says residents can bring monitors and TVs to the Boxford Recycling Center on Saturdays 8:00 am-3:30 pm, fees apply.
