Gilbert bulk trash collection: pool tables
FreeA disassembled pool table is bulk trash. Most people hire a crew for slate.
Who qualifies: Town of Gilbert residential solid waste customers.
How to schedule: No appointment. Bulk trash runs every five weeks by zone (no collection the weeks of Thanksgiving and Christmas). Set items in the street against the curb no earlier than the Saturday before and no later than 5 a.m. Monday of your collection week. Appliances are a separate scheduled pickup: call 480-503-6400 before noon Tuesday of your bulk week, $16 trip fee for up to 2 appliances ($85 outside your bulk week).
Limits: Two appliances per scheduled appliance pickup. Gilbert residents can also take one load to a designated transfer station once every 30 days at no cost (no appliances).
Set-out: In the street against the curb, between the Saturday before and 5 a.m. Monday of your bulk week, clear of mailboxes, meters, and cars.
Donation pickup in Gilbert (usable pool tables)
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.

Gilbert, Arizona (#76 nationally) is one of the country’s largest towns by population and operates its own municipal Solid Waste Division. Gilbert’s bulk trash program is distinctive: pickup runs every 5 weeks (not weekly or monthly), with no household trash accepted. Large appliances are NOT in the standard bulk program, residents schedule appliance pickups separately for $16 during your bulk week or $85 outside it, with a 2-appliance limit per collection. Gilbert offers 2 free transfer station visits per 30 days at two designated locations. Curbside trash and recycling are unaffected by holidays (a Gilbert advantage), but bulk is suspended during Thanksgiving and Christmas weeks. This guide covers every disposal option for Town of Gilbert residents.
The Gilbert rule for pool tables: A disassembled pool table is bulk trash. Most people hire a crew for slate.

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.

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.
