Garland weekly brush and bulky goods collection: patio furniture
FreePatio sets are bulky goods; glass must be boxed.
Who qualifies: Residences with City of Garland sanitation service.
How to schedule: No appointment. Brush and bulky goods are collected every week from the front curb on the same day as your green trash cart. Set bulky items out no earlier than 6 p.m. the day before and by 7 a.m. on collection day, in separate piles at least 4 feet apart: brush, bulky goods, appliances, and bagged leaves and grass. Residents can also haul bulky waste free to the city Transfer Station at 1434 Commerce St.
Limits: Weekly, resident-generated only. Construction and demolition waste from your own project may be set out 4 times per calendar year. Glass must be boxed.
Set-out: Between the sidewalk and curb in the front yard (never the alley), not under power lines or branches, 4 feet from mailboxes, boxes, and other piles, with no cars parked in front.
Donation pickup in Garland (usable patio furniture)
FreeDonation programs accept items in good usable condition: clean upholstered furniture without significant tears or stains, working appliances less than 10 years old, mattresses in good condition (subject to program rules), kitchenware, lamps, and most household goods.
Items typically not accepted: damaged or stained furniture, mattresses with bedbug history or significant wear, appliances that don’t work, particle-board furniture in poor condition, cribs (federal safety regulations have changed), and exercise equipment that requires reassembly. Always call the program before scheduling.
Freemoval (free pickups through partner organizations)
FreeFreemoval funds free junk removal and cleanouts for households referred by trusted partner organizations, such as nonprofits, housing programs, and senior services. Families don’t apply directly. A partner submits the request and vouches for the need.
Status in Garland: Not yet available. Freemoval currently serves metro Atlanta and plans to expand nationwide.
How it works where it operates: One free pickup per household, covering patio furniture, furniture, appliances, and bulk household items within standard LoadUp marketplace service. Funded by LoadUp customer round-ups and direct contributions, spent at standard LoadUp rates.

Garland, Texas (#93 nationally) is in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex and operates one of the most generous bulk programs in the country: weekly brush and bulky pickup from the front curb on the SAME day as regular trash collection. This is genuinely unusual nationwide, most cities offer bulk monthly, quarterly, or twice annually. Garland Sanitation also operates Hinton Landfill and a free Transfer Station. Customer service: (972) 205-3500 at 1434 Commerce Street. Holiday curbside service is mostly unaffected (only New Year’s, Thanksgiving, and Christmas trigger one-day delays). Find your collection day and bulky pickup using the MyGarland address lookup tool. This guide covers every disposal option for City of Garland residents.

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 Garland households needing in-home pickup, large cleanouts beyond a single week’s curbside bulky capacity, construction debris in volume, or service when crew labor is needed (heavy items, multi-piece sets), LoadUp connects you with independent loaders in the DFW metro 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.

Does Garland pick up patio furniture for free?
Yes, with glass boxed, on your trash day.
Where can I donate patio furniture in Garland?

How much does paid patio furniture removal cost in Garland?
Through the LoadUp marketplace, a single patio furniture pickup in Garland starts around $80 to $100 with upfront pricing, and full-truck loads run $300 to $600 depending on volume. For Garland households needing in-home pickup, large cleanouts beyond a single week’s curbside bulky capacity, construction debris in volume, or service when crew labor is needed (heavy items, multi-piece sets), LoadUp connects you with independent loaders in the DFW metro 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 Garland page maintained?
