Bulk items are household items that are too large to be placed in a garbage can or bag. Items containing Freon, such as refrigerators, freezers, and air conditioners, will be accepted but only if they are certified Freon-free by a licensed refrigeration technician. Bulk items are collected the same day as your regularly scheduled garbage collection. Bulk items are also subject to the bulk refuse rates listed in the City's Fee Schedule. The size of some bulk items may need to be reduced before collection for safety purposes. If you feel you have an atypically large bulk item, please contact Rock River Disposal direct at 815-965-2489 or by email at callcenter@wasteconnections.com. to verify pick-up eligibility. Citizens may also elect to transport bulk items themselves to the Winnebago Landfill.
