"Bulky waste" or large item collection is performed by Acadiana Waste Services every week. These are large items for disposal that will not fit into your 96-gallon garbage cart. Bagged items, and items that are small enough to fit into your garbage cart must be put into your black and red container with the lid able to completely close. Specific items that are collected and items that are NOT Collected are listed below.

We Do Not Collect
Metal items can be brought to a scrap metal dealer at no charge to residents. A listing of scrap metal yards is in the yellow pages under "Scrap Metals." Construction debris will require (a) placing as much as possible in the 96-gallon cart each week, with the lid closed; (b) renting a dumpster (yellow page heading is "Garbage & Rubbish Removal"); or (c) bringing the material to a "Construction & Demolition Landfill," where a fee is charged – call 291-8529 for locations. It is strongly recommended that if you hire out home improvement work, you require the contractor to remove and dispose of waste.
Schedule
Visit the Curbside Collection Schedule page to learn more about you waste schedule.
For bulky collection place items out at the curb prior to your service date. Make sure items are placed at least three feet apart from carts, mailboxes, yard waste piles, and parked cars. Make sure that there are no overhead trees or utility lines above your items, and that nothing is blocking access to your items by the service truck.
If you have Household Hazardous waste or other items that are not acceptable for collection please call the Environmental Quality Division at (337) 291-8529 with any questions.
