Edgewater's Own Options First

The City's Large Item Pick Up, and When to Call Me.

Edgewater contracts its own trash service with Republic Services, with trash every Thursday. It also has a large item program that is a genuinely good deal for a couple of pieces. Here is how it works, from the city's 2026 trash page.

What the City Offers

  • Large Item Pick Up on the 1st and 3rd Tuesday of each month. Apply by the Wednesday before; spots are limited and first come, first served.
  • The city reimburses two items per account per calendar year, up to $27.50 each. Extra items go on your utility bill at Republic's price.
  • A couch counts per section, and a mattress or box spring counts per piece.
  • Fall Alley/Curbside Cleanup on Saturday, October 3, 2026, items out by 7am.
  • Fall Drop-Off on Saturday, October 17, 2026, 9am to 1pm, at the Jefferson Jr/Sr High north lot, 2305 Pierce St.

What It Won't Take

The large item list turns away construction debris, cement and bricks, exercise equipment and weights, electronics, and glass or mirrors. The drop-off day takes wood and drywall but not concrete or bricks, and it does not take hot tubs.

So the rule of thumb: two chairs and a mattress set, with time to wait for a Tuesday, is a job for the city. A garage full of mixed stuff, a treadmill, remodel debris, or a load you want gone this week is a job for me (just not dirt or sod).

Alleys, Short Driveways, Street Parking

How a Small Rig Works a Small City.

On a lot of Edgewater blocks the only storage is a basement and a single detached garage that opens onto the alley. Driveways are short or missing. That shapes every job here.

From the Alley

The Silverado is a half-ton pickup, not a box van, so it usually backs right up to the garage door instead of blocking the street.

Or From the Street

When an alley is blocked or too tight, I park on the street and carry it out. A carry over 100 ft is $40, and stairs are $25 a flight. You hear both before I start.

Planned From a Photo

A picture of the alley or the curb tells me where the rig goes before I turn onto your block. No surprises in the driveway.

Older Homes, Tight Lots

What Edgewater Calls Me For.

Near Sloan's Lake it is mostly older bungalows getting refreshed. Around the Edgewater Public Market parking is tight and the jobs are smaller. The newer townhome rows bring move-in and move-out leftovers. Four calls come up most.

The one-car garage off the alley.

When a small detached garage is the only storage, it fills fast. A full one-car garage is usually 6 to 8 yards, $449 to $599, emptied and swept. See garage cleanouts in Edgewater.

A basement doing an attic's job.

Boxes, old furniture, gym gear the city list won't take. Everything comes up the stairs by hand. More on basement cleanouts in Edgewater.

One piece that won't fit in a car.

A sleeper sofa, a sectional, a heavy dresser. If the next city pickup is weeks out or already full, it is $149 for up to 2 yards. Details on furniture removal in Edgewater.

A remodel left a pile.

Drywall, old plaster and lath, flooring, cabinets and tile: exactly what the large item list refuses. Tile and plaster count as heavy material, $25 a yard more.

Scrape Lots and Gut Jobs

Debris Hauling for Edgewater Builders.

With redevelopment pushing through, we see scraped bungalows mid-project. Crews call us to clear the debris pile so they can keep moving without renting a roll-off. Truck and trailer carry about 9 packed yards a trip, and a big pile simply takes two trips; you still pay only by the yard.

Contractors and property managers: a certificate of insurance is on file and goes out the same day during business hours. Read more about construction debris removal in Edgewater.

Two Loads of Remodel Debris Out of an Alley Garage

This job was in south Denver, not Edgewater. It is here because it is the closest match I have: a small rental, a garage off a narrow back alley, and a whole remodel's worth of cabinets, drywall and nail boards packed inside it.

It took two full truck-and-trailer loads and 5.5 hours, solo, in the rain. The dump receipts came to about $247 across STS South and STS North. The garage was left empty, and he has since become a repeat customer.

Denver Junk Solutions was fantastic to work with. Darius was extremely communicative and was able to schedule my appointment the same day. They went above and beyond with the cleanup, arrived right on time, and were incredibly friendly throughout the entire process.

Edgewater FAQ

Common Edgewater Questions.

Will Edgewater's Large Item Pick Up take my remodel debris?
No. The city's large item list does not accept construction debris, cement or bricks. The fall drop-off day takes wood and drywall but not concrete or bricks. For drywall, cabinets, flooring or tile, text me a photo. Heavy material like tile is $25 a yard more, and you hear that before I load.
How do I get rid of a mattress in Edgewater?
The city's Large Item Pick Up takes a mattress and box spring, counted per piece, on the 1st and 3rd Tuesday if you apply by the Wednesday before. Two items a year are reimbursed up to $27.50 each. If you need it gone sooner, a mattress set is about 2 yards, $149. The mattress disposal cost guide covers the other options.
What is the minimum charge for junk removal in Edgewater?
$149, which covers the first 2 cubic yards: one couch, a mattress and box spring, or a few small items. After that it is $75 a yard. A single sofa usually runs $149 to $224, and you get the exact price before anything is loaded. If another hauler quotes you less, see what a $99 junk removal quote actually covers.
Can you reach my garage off a narrow alley?
Almost always. The Silverado is a half-ton pickup, so it fits down most Edgewater alleys and backs up to the garage. If the alley is blocked or too narrow, I park on the street and carry the load out. Text a photo of the access and you get the plan before I arrive.
How fast can you get to Edgewater?
It is about 15 minutes from the Golden office in free-flowing traffic. You get an arrival window when you book and a text when I'm on the way. Same-day works when the schedule allows, and texting a photo before noon gives you the best chance.
Do I need to be home?
If the items are inside the house or basement, someone needs to let me in and point out what goes. If everything is in the garage, the alley or at the curb, you can leave it, and I text you a photo when the job is done.
Where does my junk end up?
Nearly everything goes to an STS transfer station, North in Denver or South in Englewood, whichever is on the route. Good-condition items sometimes go to Goodwill or the Salvation Army, and big loads of scrap metal get recycled.
