How Aurora handles pool tables

Aurora, Colorado is the 51st-largest U.S. city and one of the few major cities where the city itself does not provide trash or recycling collection. Aurora requires all residences to have weekly trash service, but residents choose from the city’s licensed private haulers list. Aurora Water does run a citywide HHW pickup program through Waste Management’s At Your Door service: year-round curbside HHW pickup for $10 for Aurora residents (discounted from the $20 standard rate). Pedal Point LifeCycle Solutions partners with the city for electronics recycling events with rotating 2026 dates. Trash containers must be screened from street view per city code. This guide covers every disposal option for City of Aurora residents.

The Aurora rule for pool tables: Hire a crew.

What the city will not take: Nothing is collected free citywide. Electronics are banned from Colorado landfills.

How we checked this. The rules on this page were verified in October 2026 against: City of Aurora: Trash and Recycling (private hauler system). 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.

Prep checklist before pickup day in Aurora

  • List the table for sale or free before disassembly; buyers bring the labor.
  • Remove pockets and unbolt the rails from underneath.
  • Pull the felt staples and roll the felt off; fill any slate seams later only if reassembling.
  • Unscrew each slate slab from the frame and lift out with two people, one slab at a time.
  • Unbolt the frame from the legs, bundle the rails, and mark slate slabs 'heavy' for crews.

Three mistakes that get pool tables left at the curb:

  • Don't try to move a slate table assembled. The slate cracks, the frame racks, and someone gets hurt.
  • Don't haul the slate if a buyer will. List the table free before you touch a bolt.
  • Don't scrap or dump the slate when gardeners will take it free as stepping stones.

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 $500

Billiards 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.

LoadUp paid pool table pickup
