Edmonton 
Events Description
The City of Edmonton is once again providing residents with the opportunity to drop off furniture, appliances and other items that cannot be picked up through regular waste collection at a series of free Big Bin and Eco Station Events.
These events enable residents to recycle or dispose of household items too large for regular collection at no charge.
This year, two Big Bin Events will feature additional family and resident-oriented information and activities. While dropping off items, family members can learn about City services and trucks and equipment.
Before attending a Big Bin Event, residents are encouraged to review the list of accepted materials. Items allowed include:
- couches, chairs, mattresses and other household furniture items too large for curbside pickup
- fridges, freezers, washers, dryers and other large household appliances
- computers, televisions and other household electronics
- grass clippings and yard waste, including branches no longer than 1.2 m (4 ft) and 0.75 m (2.5 ft) in diameter (accepted for free anytime during the year)
- tires and scrap metal
- excess household garbage (should not include food scraps or recycling)
All materials will be accepted at no charge including bulky items, appliances and electronics. Residents attending Big Bin Events are required to unload their own vehicles. The City thanks all residents for their patience as significant interest is anticipated in these events and line-ups are expected.
Please note that household hazardous waste, including paint, varnish, household cleaners or batteries, will not be accepted at Big Bin Events. These items should be taken to an Eco Station for proper disposal, at no charge, anytime during the year.
