Every route for a pool table in Augusta, checked in October 2026 against the city’s current rules and the drop-off sites named. The full Augusta guide covers every other item.
Here is how each route works in Augusta, starting with the city program and ending with paid pickup.
Augusta weekly bulk waste collection: pool tables
FreeA disassembled pool table is bulk waste. Most people hire a crew for slate.
Who qualifies: Residential customers of Augusta Environmental Services (Richmond County), including unoccupied locations and vacant lots. Fees are part of the annual solid waste bill.
How to schedule: No appointment. Compliant bulk waste is collected every week by your hauler on the same day as garbage, recycling, and yard waste. Keep it in its own pile, separate from garbage, yard waste, and tires.
Limits: Up to 10 cubic yards (one 5 by 5 by 10 foot pile) per week. Items must be hand-loadable. Out-of-compliance piles are left, or removed by the city for an extra charge.
Set-out: At the curb by 6 a.m. on your collection day, in a separate pile from garbage and yard waste, clear of carts and obstructions. Remove doors from older appliances with locking mechanisms.
Donation pickup in Augusta (usable pool tables)
FreeAugusta-area 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 (program-specific rules), kitchenware, lamps, and most household goods. Habitat ReStore CSRA in particular focuses on home improvement items and accepts cabinets, doors, lighting fixtures, and building materials.
Items donation programs typically don’t accept: 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), tube-style or rear-projection TVs, and exercise equipment that requires reassembly.
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 Augusta: 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 pool tables, 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.

Augusta-Richmond County collects bulk items as part of standard weekly curbside garbage service, with no separate appointment or fee. Bulk piles up to 10 cubic yards go on the same day as your regular trash. As of August 1, 2025, Coastal Waste & Recycling holds the consolidated city contract for the entire service area, replacing a split arrangement that previously covered only half the city. Curbside recycling launched January 1, 2026 as an opt-in program: residents must enroll directly with Coastal at coastalwasteinc.com or call (706) 790-4117 to receive a recycling cart. Tires were dropped from curbside collection; free tire recycling events handle them now.
The Augusta rule for pool tables: A disassembled pool table is bulk waste. Most people hire a crew for slate.
Program basics: Up to 10 cubic yards (one 5 by 5 by 10 foot pile) per week. Items must be hand-loadable. Out-of-compliance piles are left, or removed by the city for an extra charge. At the curb by 6 a.m. on your collection day, in a separate pile from garbage and yard waste, clear of carts and obstructions. Remove doors from older appliances with locking mechanisms.
What the city will not take: Garbage, yard waste, hazardous substances, tires (free at Tire Recycling events; the Deans Bridge Road landfill also takes residential tires), construction and demolition debris, and automotive repair waste. Electronics are not curbside bulk; the landfill accepts televisions.
How we checked this. The rules on this page were verified in October 2026 against: Augusta Environmental Services: Bulk Waste Collection, Augusta Environmental Services: Landfill Division (accepted waste), Augusta Environmental Services: Yard Waste Collection. Programs change; confirm fees and limits before you go.
Why pool tables are different from ordinary bulk. Nobody can move a slate table intact. The slate cracks if the frame flexes, the table does not fit through a door, and the weight exceeds what four people can safely carry. Every disposal option therefore starts with disassembly, which takes two people two to four hours with a socket set, a staple remover, and a drill.
Three mistakes that get pool tables left at the curb:
Paid options are for tables that will not sell, basements with tight stairs, and cities that exclude slate from bulk pickup.
Pool table movers (disassembly only)
$200 to $500Billiards service companies will disassemble a table and leave the pieces staged for bulk pickup or a hauler. This is the right call when you cannot do the slate yourself.
Ask them to haul the slate if your city excludes it; many have a landscape outlet for it.

How much does a pool table weigh?
A 7-foot slate table weighs about 700 pounds, an 8-foot 800 to 1,000, and a 9-foot up to 1,200. Three-piece slate accounts for 400 to 600 pounds of that. MDF tables weigh 200 to 350 pounds.
Can a pool table go out with bulk trash?
In pieces, the cabinet, legs, and rails are accepted by most bulk programs as furniture. Slate slabs are accepted in some cities and excluded as construction debris in others. Check your city in the directory below.
How do I disassemble a pool table?
Remove the pockets, unbolt and lift off the rails, pull the staples and remove the felt, unscrew the slate from the frame (typically a dozen screws per slab, sometimes under wax or plaster at the seams), lift each slab out with two people, then unbolt the frame from the legs. Two people, two to four hours.
Is a used pool table worth anything?
A slate table from a known maker in good condition sells for $300 to $2,000. Generic slate tables sell for $100 to $500 or move free within days. MDF tables have little resale value.
