Las Vegas Bulk Trash Pickup, Garbage & Recycling Schedule 2026
This guide is built like a Las Vegas resident’s real cleanup checklist: how to find your bulk A/B week, what the “third truck” means, how to set out furniture, mattresses, branches and appliances, what not to leave at the curb, where hazardous waste goes, and who to contact when Republic Services misses pickup.
Enter your ZIP code below — we'll take you straight to your city's official schedule. No searching, no confusion.
Las Vegas bulk trash pickup garbage schedule is handled through Republic Services of Southern Nevada for the City of Las Vegas service area. Regular solid waste and recycling are tied to your address, and bulky items are collected on an every-other-week A/B bulk schedule using a separate bulk truck.
Do not guess from a neighbor’s pile. Open Republic’s Southern Nevada page or schedule lookup, enter your service address, and confirm whether your home is Monday A, Monday B, Tuesday A, Tuesday B, Wednesday A, Wednesday B, Thursday A, Thursday B, Friday A, Friday B, Saturday A or Saturday B.
Las Vegas Bulk Trash Pickup Day Lookup — Find Your Republic Services A/B Schedule by Address
Your Las Vegas bulk trash day is not citywide. It depends on your exact address and your Republic Services route. Republic’s Southern Nevada page says residents can view their collection schedule, including bulk service, by using the schedule button or address calendar. The same page lists 2026 bulk calendars for Clark County, Las Vegas, North Las Vegas and Henderson.
The biggest local mistake is assuming “Las Vegas address” means “City of Las Vegas.” Many mailing addresses that say Las Vegas are actually unincorporated Clark County, North Las Vegas, Henderson, Spring Valley, Enterprise, Summerlin-area communities, Paradise or another service area. The name on your mailing address is not enough. Your service address in Republic’s schedule tool is the source of truth.
Best resident path: enter your address in Republic’s schedule lookup, note your regular collection day, then note your bulk A/B calendar. Screenshot it or add reminders because bulk is every other week, not every week.
Open Schedule LookupLocal cleanup tip: bulk pickup is a separate truck. If your regular garbage cart is emptied but the couch, boxes, branches or mattress are still there, that does not always mean you were skipped. The bulk truck may come later, or you may have used the wrong A/B week.
Las Vegas 2026 Bulk Trash Calendar — Monday A/B Through Saturday A/B Explained
Republic Services publishes separate 2026 bulk calendars for the Southern Nevada service area. The calendar name usually has a weekday and a letter. The weekday tells you the general route day. The A or B tells you the alternating bulk week.
| Calendar Label | What It Means | Resident Action | Common Mistake |
|---|---|---|---|
| Monday A / Monday B | Your bulk route is tied to Monday, but only on the correct A or B week. | Open the matching PDF/calendar and save the dates. | Putting bulk out every Monday. |
| Tuesday A / Tuesday B | Your regular route may be Tuesday, and the bulk truck comes every other Tuesday on the matching letter. | Check whether your address is A or B before moving furniture to the curb. | Following a neighbor across a route boundary. |
| Wednesday A / Wednesday B | Bulk is not automatically weekly; it follows the Wednesday A/B calendar. | Use Republic account alerts, not memory. | Thinking a missed pile will be taken next day without reporting. |
| Thursday A / Thursday B | Every-other-week bulk service for Thursday-route addresses. | Keep the PDF or online schedule linked on your phone. | Leaving piles out for days in HOA communities. |
| Friday A / Friday B | Bulk day can fall before a weekend, so prepare early. | Set items neatly before the route starts and check service alerts. | Waiting until mid-morning to move heavy items. |
| Saturday A / Saturday B | Some Southern Nevada addresses have Saturday calendars. | Confirm by address because Saturday service is not universal. | Assuming all Las Vegas homes are Monday-Friday. |
What the official bulk calendar says: Republic sends a third truck every other week to pick up bulk items. Bulk items are items that do not fit inside your cart. The calendar also says to share the calendar with your landscaper and keep it handy for reference.
Las Vegas Bulk Trash Set-Out Checklist — What I Would Do Before Putting Items Outside
Bulk pickup is where most Las Vegas residents get burned. A pile looks simple, but the small rules matter. If the pile is loose, too long, on private property, full of nails, mixed with household hazardous waste, or placed on the wrong week, it may sit there and become an HOA or code-enforcement headache.
- Confirm your Republic schedule by address.
- Confirm the A/B week, not only the weekday.
- Keep each item 6 feet or less in length.
- Contain loose trash properly.
- Bundle and tie tree branches.
- Keep branch bundles 50 lbs or less.
- Wrap soiled mattresses in plastic.
- Place items at the curb, not inside private property.
- Do not leave loose trash scattered in a pile.
- Do not leave wood with protruding nails or screws.
- Do not expect crews to enter your yard, driveway, garage or gated side area.
- Do not mix paint, chemicals, batteries, gasoline or pesticides into bulk trash.
- Do not use bulk day for a full renovation cleanup.
- Do not put the pile out based only on a neighbor’s pile.
Very local problem: Las Vegas winds can scatter light material fast. If you put small loose items out in boxes or open bags, the pile can turn into litter before the truck arrives. Contain loose trash properly, weigh down light items, and avoid placing paper/cardboard where it can blow into the street.
What Republic Services Takes on Las Vegas Bulk Pickup Day — Furniture, Mattresses, Branches and Appliances
Bulk pickup is for items that do not fit in your cart. It is not a second garbage day and it is not a household hazardous waste program. The safe way to think about it is this: if it is large, household-generated, non-hazardous, curb-safe and prepared correctly, it may be eligible. If it is chemical, sharp, construction-heavy, liquid, automotive, or dangerous, do not place it in the bulk pile.
Sofas, chairs, tables, dressers and similar household furniture are common bulk items. Place them curbside and keep them clear of parked vehicles, utility boxes and blocked access points.
Republic’s bulk guidance says soiled mattresses should be wrapped in plastic. This is not optional if the mattress is dirty, wet, stained or unsafe for handling.
Tree branches must be bundled, tied and 50 lbs or less. Long unbundled palm fronds, brush piles and landscaping debris can create pickup problems.
Large appliances may need special handling. Republic’s general bulk guidance says to remove doors from appliances like refrigerators and washing machines.
Broken shelves, rugs, small furniture and boxed household junk may be manageable if contained properly and not hazardous. Avoid making a full dumpster-sized pile.
Contact Republic before placing construction debris. Remodel waste, tile, drywall, concrete, dirt and contractor debris may need dumpster or transfer station disposal.
What Not to Put in Las Vegas Bulk Trash — HHW, Paint, Gas, Batteries, Chemicals and Unsafe Material
Some items should never be placed in a bulk trash pile because they are hazardous, unsafe for workers, or require special disposal. Republic’s 2026 Household Hazardous Waste calendar lists acceptable HHW items for drop-off such as paint, oil, gasoline, batteries, pesticides, fertilizer, flammable liquids, aerosol cans, drain and oven cleaners, adhesives and pool chemicals.
| Item Type | Do Not Put in Bulk Pile | Better Option |
|---|---|---|
| Paint / solvents | Do not mix into bulk or regular trash. | Use HHW drop-off calendar. |
| Gasoline / oil | Gasoline is restricted and must be handled properly. | HHW drop-off in sealed containers; check limit. |
| Batteries | Do not place loose batteries in trash piles. | HHW or approved battery recycling. |
| Pool chemicals | Do not leave chemical containers in bulk items. | HHW drop-off. |
| Loose nails / screws | Wood with protruding nails or screws can be rejected. | Remove or hammer down hazards before pickup. |
| Private property piles | Crews will not remove items from private property. | Move eligible items to curb pickup location. |
Do not gamble with hazardous waste. If it can leak, burn, react, explode, corrode, injure a worker, or contaminate a truck, do not put it in bulk trash. Use the HHW calendar or call Republic Services for disposal direction.

Customer SupportLas Vegas Apartment, Condo, HOA and Rental Bulk Trash Rules — Do Not Copy Single-Family Curb Rules Blindly
If you live in an apartment, condo, gated community, HOA neighborhood or rental home, your waste rules may be stricter than the basic Republic schedule. A single-family home may have curbside bulk pickup, but an apartment may use dumpsters, compactors, valet trash, private enclosures, property-manager rules or a different large-item process.
- Does the property allow bulk items at the enclosure?
- Is there a specific bulk pickup day for the community?
- Does the HOA require advance notice?
- Are mattresses, appliances or furniture handled separately?
- Will you be charged if the property has to arrange haul-away?
- Check the lease or move-out packet before placing furniture outside.
- Do not leave items beside dumpsters unless management allows it.
- Photograph your cleared unit and disposal receipts.
- Schedule junk removal or self-haul if the property does not allow bulk dumping.
- Do not assume Republic will enter gated or private property for loose items.
Property chargeback warning: A couch or mattress left near an apartment dumpster may become your cleanup fee. Republic’s bulk calendar is not a permission slip to dump inside a private apartment enclosure.
Missed Bulk Trash Pickup Las Vegas — What to Check Before You Report Republic Services
A missed bulk pickup is not always a missed route. In Las Vegas, it can be the wrong A/B week, a pile that did not meet rules, a pile placed where crews cannot legally collect it, a late or separate bulk truck, or a true service delay. Diagnose it before you file the report.
Confirm your A/B bulk week
Open Republic’s schedule tool or Southern Nevada bulk calendars. If this is not your A/B week, the pile is not missed.
Confirm the pile followed the rules
Items must be 6 feet or less, loose trash must be contained, branches must be bundled and 50 lbs or less, and items must be at curb pickup only.
Separate regular cart service from bulk service
Bulk is a separate truck. Regular trash and recycling being picked up first does not prove the bulk pile was skipped.
Report through Republic support
Republic’s customer support page lets account holders report missed pickups online. You can also call Southern Nevada customer support at 702-735-5151.
Best evidence: Take a photo of the pile on pickup morning showing curb placement, size and item preparation. If customer support asks what was out there, you do not have to explain from memory.
Las Vegas Transfer Stations and Household Hazardous Waste Drop-Off — When Bulk Pickup Is Not the Right Option
If your item is hazardous, too much for curbside, rejected, construction-related, or time-sensitive, drop-off may be safer than waiting for the next bulk week. Republic’s Southern Nevada service information lists regional facilities and says to call for current rates and acceptable or unacceptable materials.
