Provo resource guide
Provo, Utah, at a glance: Spring Cleanup (Mar 30-May 9, 2026) and Fall Cleanup: 6-week roll-off dumpster windows, free transfer station coupon included. Nothing collected outside carts year-round except seasonal cleanup. SUVSWD for HHW and electronics at suvswd.org. This page pulls the Provo specifics for pool tables out of our full Provo junk removal guide: what the city program accepts, where to donate, the prep that keeps a pickup from being skipped, and paid options when you need a pool table gone this week.
A working slate table should be sold or given away to someone who will disassemble it. Everything else has a free route in pieces. Here is how each route works in Provo.
Provo Spring and Fall Cleanup (pool tables)
Free, 6 weeks eachTwo cleanup windows per year provide roll-off dumpsters at multiple city locations, plus a free transfer station load coupon. The primary free path for bulk items in Provo.
Closest Provo by-item rule (“Couch or furniture”): Seasonal cleanup dumpsters. Deseret Industries, Salvation Army, or Habitat ReStore Utah County if usable.
Spring Cleanup 2026: March 30 - May 9, 2026. Roll-off dumpsters at Provo City Compost Yard and rotating neighborhood sites.
Fall Cleanup: Typically October to November (six-week window).

Donation pickup in Provo (usable pool tables)
FreeUtah’s major thrift and donation network with multiple Utah Valley locations. The most established and accepted donation channel in the Provo/Orem area, accepting furniture, appliances, clothing, and household goods.
Schedules free pickup for usable furniture and large items. Schedule online at satruck.org.
Sell or give away to a buyer who disassembles
Free, often paid to youSlate tables from known makers sell for $300 to $2,000 used, and even generic 8-foot tables find buyers at $100 to $500 on Marketplace and Craigslist. Listed free, a slate table is claimed within days. The buyer brings tools and labor, which is worth more than the sale price.
List the brand, slate thickness, and whether it is a one-piece or three-piece slate. Buyers decide based on those three facts.
Require the buyer to disassemble; never attempt to move an assembled table for them.
Slate reuse as landscape stone
FreeBroken slate is excellent for stepping stones, garden edging, and dry-stack walls. Listing the slabs as free landscape slate gets them picked up by gardeners and masons, and some rock yards accept clean slate.
Break slate with a hammer and a straight edge on a soft surface. Wear eye protection.
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 Provo: 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.
If you run a nonprofit or housing program in Provo: you can start the conversation now through the For partners page.
Provo, Utah takes a seasonal approach to bulk waste: Spring Cleanup (March to May) and Fall Cleanup each provide six weeks of roll-off dumpsters at multiple city locations for residents to drop off large items and bulk waste, with a free transfer station load coupon included. Provo has no appointment-based or automated curbside bulk pickup outside these seasonal windows. Year-round, everything must fit inside the cart. The South Utah Valley Solid Waste District handles HHW and electronics for the region. This guide covers disposal options for City of Provo residents.
Provo does not list pool tables as a separate line in its bulk rules. The closest category in the city table is “Couch or furniture”: Seasonal cleanup dumpsters. Deseret Industries, Salvation Army, or Habitat ReStore Utah County if usable. Treat that as the starting point and confirm with the city program before set-out.
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.
