Every route for patio furniture in Jacksonville, checked in October 2026 against the city’s current rules and the drop-off sites named. The full Jacksonville guide covers every other item.
Here is how each route works in Jacksonville, starting with the city program and ending with paid pickup.
Jacksonville curbside household bulk collection: patio furniture
FreePatio sets are bulk. Tape or wrap glass tops.
Who qualifies: Houses with City of Jacksonville residential collection. Apartment complexes are commercial accounts and use their own haulers.
How to schedule: No appointment for ordinary bulk. In areas without automated carts (City and Meridian Waste areas) bulk is collected weekly with garbage; in automated-cart areas (Waste Pro) it is every other week. Appliances and tires are the exception: schedule those by calling 630-CITY (904-630-2489) or at myjax.custhelp.com.
Limits: 5 cubic yards per week, about 30 full 32-gallon bags. Tires are limited to 4 standard vehicle tires per scheduled pickup.
Set-out: Curbside between 5 p.m. the day before and 6 a.m. on collection day, at least 3 feet from carts and away from mailboxes and cars.
Donation pickup in Jacksonville (usable patio furniture)
FreeJacksonville’s donation 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-specific 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 before scheduling if you’re unsure, pickups that find unacceptable items will leave them behind.
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 Jacksonville: 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.

Jacksonville is the largest city by land area in the contiguous United States, 757 square miles, and that scale shapes how trash collection works here. Bulk pickup is weekly with no appointment needed for most items, but appliances and tires require scheduling. This page walks through every option in order from free to paid, with the specific rules that apply across Duval County.
The Jacksonville rule for patio furniture: Patio sets are bulk. Tape or wrap glass tops.
Program basics: 5 cubic yards per week, about 30 full 32-gallon bags. Tires are limited to 4 standard vehicle tires per scheduled pickup. Curbside between 5 p.m. the day before and 6 a.m. on collection day, at least 3 feet from carts and away from mailboxes and cars.
What the city will not take: Household hazardous waste of any kind (illegal in the residential stream under city code), appliances and tires without a scheduled pickup, and anything from a business.
How we checked this. The rules on this page were verified in October 2026 against: City of Jacksonville Solid Waste: Service Standards, City of Jacksonville Solid Waste Collection Quick Reference Guide, City of Jacksonville: Household Hazardous Waste Facility. 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 households who need same-week service or live in apartment buildings over 4 units, LoadUp offers professional removal in Jacksonville with upfront pricing. Independent loaders in the marketplace handle pickup, loading, and licensed disposal.
What’s included: Loading, hauling, and licensed disposal of your patio furniture. No prep needed beyond pointing out what goes.

Does Jacksonville pick up patio furniture for free?
Yes, on your bulk collection day.
Where can I donate patio furniture in Jacksonville?
Jacksonville’s donation 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-specific rules), kitchenware, lamps, and most household goods.
How much does paid patio furniture removal cost in Jacksonville?
Through the LoadUp marketplace, a single patio furniture pickup in Jacksonville starts around $80 to $100 with upfront pricing, and full-truck loads run $300 to $600 depending on volume. For households who need same-week service or live in apartment buildings over 4 units, LoadUp offers professional removal in Jacksonville with upfront pricing. Independent loaders in the marketplace handle pickup, loading, and licensed disposal.
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.
