Bulky Item Pick Up - May 2024
This will mark the final Bulky Item Pick-Up event. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and express our regret that we will no longer be able to facilitate this with our new waste contract. After this final event, bulky items may be disposed of at facilities like Riverside Recycling for a fee. We do intend to continue with confidential shredding and universal waste drop off events in the fall – notices will be post in September with dates and times for these events.
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation. Thank you for your continued commitment to maintaining the cleanliness and environmental integrity of our community.
Bulky Item Pickup was designed to assist the residents of Cumberland in the disposal of large, oversized items that cannot fit into the green trash bags during weekly trash/recycling collection.
- If an item, or group of items, fits in a town trash bag, the material is not considered a bulky item and will not be collected.
- Bulky items will be picked up on your regular trash collection day.
- Only residential waste is accepted - no commercial trash is permitted.
- Items not accepted curbside may be taken to Riverside Recycling in Portland for a fee.
- Please consider donating any items that are in new or gently used condition:
