Here is how each route works in Colorado Springs, starting with the city program and ending with paid pickup.
Colorado Springs bulky item disposal: patio furniture
Your hauler, for a feeMetal frames to a scrap yard; your hauler for the rest.
Who qualifies: Colorado Springs has no city trash service. Every household contracts its own private hauler (Waste Connections, Republic, GFL, Apex, and others), and bulky pickups are arranged with that hauler for a fee.
How to schedule: Call your own hauler to schedule a bulky item pickup; fees and rules vary by company. Otherwise self-haul to a landfill or transfer station for a fee, or take hazardous waste, electronics, and sometimes mattresses and tires to the El Paso County Household Hazardous Waste Facility and its Clean Sweep events.
Limits: Set by your hauler. The county HHW facility is free for El Paso and Teller County residents by appointment, with per-item limits.
Set-out: Only on a date your hauler confirms. Items left at the curb otherwise are a city code issue.

Colorado Springs is one of the larger U.S. cities with no municipal trash collection at all. The city operates an open private hauler market: residents choose their own provider from licensed companies including Waste Connections, Apex Waste Solutions, Infinite Disposal, Republic Services, SOCO Waste, and others. Bulk pickup rules, fees, and options vary by hauler. This guide explains what that means practically, how to handle large items with each major provider, and every free or low-cost disposal alternative in the Colorado Springs metro.
The Colorado Springs rule for patio furniture: Metal frames to a scrap yard; your hauler for the rest.
Program basics: Set by your hauler. The county HHW facility is free for El Paso and Teller County residents by appointment, with per-item limits. Only on a date your hauler confirms. Items left at the curb otherwise are a city code issue.
What the city will not take: Nothing is collected free citywide. Electronics are banned from Colorado landfills and must go to the county facility or a recycler.
How we checked this. The rules on this page were verified in October 2026 against: El Paso County Environmental Division: Household Hazardous Waste Facility and recycling directory, Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment: household hazardous waste programs. Programs change; confirm fees and limits before you go.
Why patio furniture are different from ordinary bulk. Patio sets accumulate damage that donation programs will not accept: rust on steel, fading and brittleness on plastic, unraveling resin wicker, and mildew on cushions. Intact aluminum and teak sets in good condition donate easily; everything else goes to scrap or bulk.
Three mistakes that get patio furniture left at the curb:
Paid options are for a full set with nowhere to stage it, a condo with no bulk service, or heavy cast pieces nobody will carry.
Self-haul to a transfer station
$10 to $30Plastic and resin pieces stack into a pickup or trailer. Transfer stations charge by load. Take the metal to a scrap yard separately where it is free or pays.
Break resin wicker frames down to reduce the volume charge.
LoadUp paid patio furniture pickup
$80+For Colorado Springs households who need same-day or in-home pickup, need crew labor, or want faster service than city programs allow, LoadUp connects you with independent loaders in the Colorado Springs area for upfront-priced pickup.
What’s included: Loading, hauling, and licensed disposal of your patio furniture. No prep needed beyond pointing out what goes.
Pricing: Starts around $80 for a single item; full-truck pickups range from $300 to $600 depending on volume.
If you can pay for a pickup, your booking helps fund free pickups for someone else. Every paid LoadUp customer can opt in to round up at checkout, and 100% of round-ups go directly to Freemoval’s subsidized jobs.

How much does paid patio furniture removal cost in Colorado Springs?

For Colorado Springs households who need same-day or in-home pickup, need crew labor, or want faster service than city programs allow, LoadUp connects you with independent loaders in the Colorado Springs area for upfront-priced pickup.
Can patio furniture go out with bulk trash?
Yes in nearly every city with a bulk program. Remove glass tabletops and protect them, break down umbrellas, and stack chairs. Metal pieces can go to scrap instead.
Is aluminum patio furniture worth anything as scrap?
Yes. Aluminum pays several times the per-pound rate of steel, and a full aluminum set weighs 60 to 120 pounds. Many people get $20 to $60 at a yard, or simply give it to a scrapper who picks it up free.
What do I do with a glass patio tabletop?
Remove it from the frame. For bulk pickup, tape the surface in a grid, mark it 'glass,' and lean it securely, or box it. Intact tempered glass tops are also easy to give away because replacements cost $100 or more.
Can I donate weathered patio furniture?
Donation programs want pieces without rust, brittleness, or mildew. Weathered teak and cast aluminum are accepted and resold; faded plastic and frayed resin wicker usually are not. Free listings are more forgiving.
Is this Colorado Springs page maintained?
