Lethbridge has three ways to get rid of a pile: haul it to the Waste and Recycling Centre on 43 Street North yourself, book the City's large-item pickup and wait for the route day, or have a crew load it and leave the same week. This site is for the third option, and it covers the things the City's pickup will not take, such as construction debris, tires, and anything that needs two people and a truck.
Pricing is by how much of the truck the load fills, quoted before loading starts. Mattresses, fridges, freezers and tires carry the same per-item fees the regional landfill charges, and they are stated on the phone rather than found on the invoice.

Frequently asked questions
How is junk removal priced in Lethbridge?
By the fraction of the truck the load fills, quoted before loading starts. Mattresses, fridges, freezers and tires carry a per-item fee that matches what the regional landfill charges. Labour, loading and disposal are inside the price.
Doesn't the City pick up large items for free?
The City of Lethbridge's large-item service takes a limited list of household items on a scheduled route day. It does not take renovation debris, tires, or loads that need two people, and it does not clear a garage. Call 311 for that service; call here for everything else or when the timing matters.
Do I have to be home?
No. If the items are outside or in an unlocked garage, the crew can load and send a photo of the cleared space, with payment by card over the phone or e-transfer.
What can't be taken?
Asbestos-containing materials, paint, solvents, oils, propane tanks and other hazardous waste. Those go through the City's household hazardous waste program.
How fast can you come?
Most Lethbridge pickups are scheduled within the week, often within two days. Coaldale, Coalhurst, Picture Butte and Taber are grouped by route day.
