Bulk Trash Pick Up Schedule
Roll Off Containers:
The City of Coolidge provides City residents with the option to obtain a roll off for items that do not fit in your regular garbage container. Our roll offs are 8 yard bins that fit bulk items such as green waste, furniture, appliances, household items & cardboard. Loose leaves, yard clippings, yard debris, etc. will need to be bagged and then thrown in the roll off. In order to obtain a roll off you must fill out a roll off agreement and pay a $75.00 roll off fee. The Public Works office accepts cash or card and will be open from 7:00am-4:00pm Monday through Friday. The roll offs will be delivered by 8:00am and will be picked up the following day by 8:00am. We will not accept any construction materials, hazardous waste (oil, paint, pesticides), tires, pallets, automotive parts, dirt, concrete or household garbage.

Community Drop Off Center & Burn Pit
The City of Coolidge has an area for drop off of green waste & bulk trash items Located on Coolidge Ave ¼ mile west of Kenworthy Rd. We require you provide a photo ID & a current sewer & trash bill along with an General Affidavit if dumping for someone else and using their address. City of Coolidge residents are allowed one dump a month for free as approved by City Council depending on the size of the trailer brought in, please see fee sheet below. If you return in the same month with a load you will be subject to a fee for dumping depending on the load size. Any load that is being dropped off must be brought into the gates so that loads can be inspected. Also remember that if you contract with an outside company for removal or trimming of your trees, City Code requires that your contractor remove your green waste and tree trimmings at their expense. We will not accept any construction materials, hazardous waste, tires or household garbage.
