Donation pickup in Lubbock (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 Lubbock: 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.

Lubbock, Texas (#84 nationally) operates a distinctly different municipal solid waste system from most U.S. cities. There is NO curbside bulk pickup and NO curbside recycling. Garbage runs twice weekly (Monday/Thursday OR Tuesday/Friday) at a $16.25 monthly flat rate. For bulk items, brush, mattresses, large furniture, and appliances, residents must self-haul to one of four Citizen Convenience Stations open Monday to Saturday 8:00 AM-5:30 PM. Service is FREE for Lubbock residents with valid driver’s license showing a Lubbock city address. Recycling is handled via 10 drop-off locations citywide. The city does NOT accept glass or plastics #3-7 (private services like Good Earth Recycling fill that gap). This guide covers every disposal option for City of Lubbock residents.
The Lubbock rule for patio furniture: Patio sets go to a Convenience Station or the landfill.
What the city will not take: Construction, remodeling, and demolition materials at the stations, and commercial loads anywhere. Refrigerators and freezers go to the stations (not the landfill) so staff can remove the refrigerant.
How we checked this. The rules on this page were verified in October 2026 against: City of Lubbock Solid Waste: Bulky Items, City of Lubbock Solid Waste: Citizen Convenience Stations and free landfill disposal. 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 Lubbock households who can’t self-haul to a Citizen Convenience Station, no truck, mobility limitations, items too heavy to transport, or service when crew labor is needed, LoadUp connects you with independent loaders in Tech Terrace, Arnett Benson, Caprock, and other Lubbock neighborhoods 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 Lubbock pick up patio furniture for free?
No curbside. Convenience Station or landfill.
Where can I donate patio furniture in Lubbock?
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 rules), kitchenware, lamps, and most household goods.
How much does paid patio furniture removal cost in Lubbock?
Through the LoadUp marketplace, a single patio furniture pickup in Lubbock starts around $80 to $100 with upfront pricing, and full-truck loads run $300 to $600 depending on volume. For Lubbock households who can’t self-haul to a Citizen Convenience Station, no truck, mobility limitations, items too heavy to transport, or service when crew labor is needed, LoadUp connects you with independent loaders in Tech Terrace, Arnett Benson, Caprock, and other Lubbock neighborhoods 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 Lubbock page maintained?
Yes. Freemoval maintains this page as a public resource alongside the full Lubbock guide. We update it when programs change rules, fees, or contact methods. Last updated October 2026. If you find outdated information, let us know.
