Las Vegas bulk trash pickup garbage schedule is handled by Republic Services of Southern Nevada. City of Las Vegas residential service includes weekly automated solid waste and recycling, with bulky item pickup every other week for single-family residences, duplexes and multiple dwellings/mobile home parks with individual service.
Bulk items must follow Republic’s rules: items should be 6 feet or less, loose trash must be contained, nails or screws must not protrude, soiled mattresses must be wrapped in plastic, tree branches must be tied in bundles of 50 pounds or less, and items must be placed at the curb because crews will not remove them from private property.
Las Vegas Bulk Trash Pickup Schedule Lookup — Find Your Day, A/B Week and Address Route
The first thing you need is your Republic Services address schedule. Las Vegas and the larger Southern Nevada service area use regular collection days plus A/B bulk schedules. Two homes can both have Monday service, but one may be on Monday A and the other on Monday B. That is why a screenshot from a neighbour or an old calendar can be wrong for your address.
Open Republic’s address schedule
Use the Republic Services schedule lookup and enter your exact service address. This is the safest way to confirm your normal trash day, recycling week, holiday impact and local service details.
Find your bulk schedule letter
Republic’s 2026 Southern Nevada calendars are organized by weekday and A/B week. Do not use “Monday bulk” alone. You need Monday A or Monday B, Tuesday A or Tuesday B, and so on.
Prepare the item before the date
Cut long items to 6 feet or less, contain loose trash, wrap soiled mattresses in plastic, remove nail hazards, and tie branches into bundles of 50 pounds or less.
Place items curbside only
Republic’s bulk calendars say items will not be removed from private property. Put items at the curb, not behind a gate, in a garage, in a side yard, or against the house.
Official schedule: Use Republic Services’ schedule lookup or Southern Nevada calendar page before placing large items at the curb.
Check AddressLas Vegas Bulk Item Rules — What Must Be Done Before Republic Will Pick It Up
Bulk pickup is for items that do not fit inside your cart. It is not a free-for-all pile for loose trash, construction debris, unsafe wood, private-property removal or unprepared mattresses. The rule is simple: if a crew member cannot safely collect it from the curb, it can be left behind.
- Keep each bulky item 6 feet or less in length.
- Place items at the curb only.
- Contain loose trash properly.
- Wrap soiled mattresses in plastic.
- Bundle tree branches and tie them for pickup.
- Keep branch bundles 50 pounds or less.
- Remove or hammer down protruding nails and screws in wood.
- Do not place bulk items on private property and expect crews to retrieve them.
- Do not leave loose trash scattered in the street.
- Do not place boards with exposed nails or screws.
- Do not put out soiled mattresses without plastic wrapping.
- Do not leave unbundled tree branches or landscape piles.
- Do not assume any large item is accepted without checking your address schedule.
Local resident tip: Bulk pickup is often handled by a separate truck from regular trash. Do not panic if your trash cart is emptied first and the couch or mattress is still there. The bulk truck may arrive separately on the same scheduled bulk day.
Las Vegas Bulk Waste Video Guide — How Republic Services Explains Oversized Items
This official Republic Services video is useful for Las Vegas residents because it explains the basic idea of bulky waste: items that are too large for the regular curbside cart. It supports the large-item guidance in this article, especially for residents deciding whether an item belongs in the cart, at the curb for bulk pickup, or needs a special disposal option.
Best for: New residents, homeowners, renters moving out, and anyone unsure whether furniture, mattresses, appliances or oversized household items should go in the cart or be handled as bulk waste.
This video supports the practical guidance in this article. For exact pickup dates, holiday changes, missed collection, bins, fees, tags, depot hours, and service alerts, residents should still verify details through the official city or waste authority links above.
Las Vegas 2026 Bulk Pickup Calendar — Monday A/B, Tuesday A/B and Other Route Letters
Republic Services posts separate Southern Nevada 2026 bulk calendars by weekday and A/B letter. The calendars say Republic sends a third truck every other week to pick up bulk items. The exact dates depend on your address route, so the correct process is address lookup first, then the matching PDF calendar.
- Find your normal collection weekday.
- Confirm whether you are on A or B bulk week.
- Use the matching 2026 PDF calendar.
- Circle the bulk dates and set a phone reminder.
- Prepare large items before the scheduled date.
- Nearby homes can have different route letters.
- Las Vegas, North Las Vegas, Henderson and Clark County can differ by billing and municipal rules.
- Holiday weeks and extreme heat changes can affect route timing.
- Apartment and HOA communities may use a different disposal process.

Open Republic Southern NevadaWhat Counts as Bulk Trash in Las Vegas — Furniture, Bags, Carpet, Wood and Appliances
A bulk item is generally something that does not fit inside the regular cart. That can include furniture, small household items, tied bundles, bagged material, rolled carpet or other large household items. But the item still has to meet safety and preparation rules.
| Item Type | Likely Pickup Path | Preparation Rule |
|---|---|---|
| Sofa / chair / furniture | Bulk pickup | Place curbside on the correct A/B bulk date. Keep access clear. |
| Mattress / box spring | Bulk pickup | Soiled mattresses must be wrapped in plastic. |
| Wood / boards | Bulk pickup if prepared | No protruding nails or screws. Keep length 6 feet or less. |
| Branches | Bulk pickup if bundled | Bundle and tie; keep bundles 50 pounds or less. |
| Loose trash | Only if contained | No loose scattered piles. Contain material properly. |
| Appliance / special item | Check Republic first | Some appliances or hazardous components may need special handling. |
Do not build a curb mountain. Las Vegas bulk pickup is not meant for unsafe piles, renovation debris, dirt, rock, loose landscape material or private-property cleanouts. When in doubt, call Republic Services at 702-735-5151 before placing items out.
Las Vegas Mattress Bulk Pickup — Plastic Wrapping, Bed Frames and Move-Out Mistakes
Mattresses are one of the most common bulk pickup problems in Las Vegas because residents place them out during move-outs, vacation rental cleanups, tenant turnover, or weekend garage cleaning. Republic’s bulk calendars specifically warn that soiled mattresses must be wrapped in plastic.
- Check your exact bulk pickup date.
- Wrap soiled mattresses in plastic.
- Keep the mattress at the curb, not inside the property line.
- Separate bed frames if needed and keep pieces under 6 feet when possible.
- Do not block sidewalks, driveways, alleys or road visibility.
- Wrong A/B bulk week.
- Placed behind a gate or on private property.
- Soiled mattress not wrapped in plastic.
- Mixed with loose trash or construction debris.
- Put out after the truck already passed.
Move-out tip: If you are leaving an apartment, rental house or HOA community, ask management before placing mattresses at the curb. Some properties use dumpsters, private bulk pickups, or move-out rules that are different from single-family curb service.
Las Vegas Branches and Yard Waste Bulk Pickup — Bundle Rules for Desert Landscaping
Tree trimming and palm debris are common in Las Vegas, especially after wind, heat stress or seasonal yard work. Republic’s 2026 bulk calendars say tree branches must be bundled, tied for pickup, and 50 pounds or less.
- Cut branches to manageable lengths.
- Bundle branches tightly.
- Tie bundles with twine or another secure tie.
- Keep each bundle 50 pounds or less.
- Place bundles at the curb only on your correct bulk date.
- Large tree removal piles.
- Commercial landscaper debris.
- Palm trunks or heavy logs.
- Rock, dirt, concrete, tile or construction debris.
- Unbundled piles that may scatter into the street.
Landscaper warning: Republic’s bulk calendars tell residents to share the calendar with their landscaper. That is not decorative advice. If a landscaper leaves loose or oversized debris on the wrong week, the pile can remain at the curb.
Las Vegas Garbage and Recycling Pickup — What Is Included With Regular Residential Service
The City of Las Vegas 2025–2026 Republic Services rate sheet lists single-family residences, duplexes and individual-service multiple dwellings/mobile home parks with weekly automated solid waste and recycling, plus every-other-week bulky item pickup. That matters because bulk service is tied to the normal residential service structure, not a separate junk-hauling appointment for every item.
- Weekly automated solid waste service.
- Weekly automated recycling service according to the City rate sheet wording.
- Every-other-week bulky item pickup for listed individual-service residential categories.
- Additional service levels or commercial/container service may have different pricing.
- Your exact collection day.
- Your A/B bulk week.
- Holiday service changes.
- Track My Truck / local route visibility where available.
- Missed pickup reporting and account-specific service alerts.
Service-area reminder: Republic’s Southern Nevada service hub covers City of Las Vegas, Clark County, Henderson, Laughlin and North Las Vegas. Your billing contact, city escalation path and transfer-station rules can differ by municipality, so always confirm with your address.
Missed Las Vegas Bulk Trash Pickup — What to Check Before You Call Republic
If your regular cart was emptied but your large item is still there, it may not be a true missed pickup. Bulk collection can use a separate truck. But if your scheduled bulk day has passed and the item is still at the curb, diagnose the problem before reporting it.
Confirm the correct A/B week
Make sure you used the correct weekday and A/B calendar. A wrong letter is one of the fastest ways to miss bulk pickup.
Check preparation rules
Look for 6-foot length issues, loose trash, exposed nails, unwrapped soiled mattresses, overweight branch bundles or items placed on private property.
Use the address/account schedule
Log into Republic Services or use the schedule tool to verify whether the route is complete and whether any holiday or heat-related update applies.
Call Republic Services
Call 702-735-5151 with your address, the item type, the date placed out, and whether regular trash was collected.
Documentation helps: Take a photo of the item at the curb before pickup day, especially if your HOA or landlord has a deadline. Photos help prove correct placement and timing if a dispute happens.
Las Vegas Apartments, HOA Communities and Rental Move-Outs — Bulk Trash Rules Are Not Always the Same
Many Las Vegas residents live in apartments, gated communities, HOA neighbourhoods, condos, townhomes, short-term rental properties or managed communities. These properties may have private dumpsters, community bulk events, HOA rules, move-out fees or property-manager instructions that override the simple curbside routine.
- Does the property use Republic curbside bulk pickup or private hauling?
- Where exactly should large items be placed?
- Are mattresses, couches and appliances allowed at the curb?
- Is there a monthly bulk area or scheduled community pickup?
- Will the HOA fine residents for early or late set-out?
- Leaving furniture beside a dumpster without permission.
- Putting a mattress at the curb on the wrong A/B week.
- Dumping bulky items near an alley or wall.
- Assuming the landlord will handle the item after you leave.
- Forgetting that item removal may be charged back to the tenant.
Renter reality check: A citywide or Republic schedule does not automatically protect you from HOA, apartment or landlord rules. If you are moving out, get written permission or a written disposal instruction before placing bulky items outside.
