looking for a dump

Yeah don't go taking that title out of context, folks.

I'm finally getting around to clearing all the junk out of my storage unit. I have a few things that are not coming home and will not be accepted by Goodwill or Salvation Army. Biggest item is a queen-sized box spring, along with a few other random pieces of this-and-that.

Is there somewhere in the PHX area that I can take this stuff?

Thanks!

Couldn't tell ya, Rob.

I would take it down around VanBuren blvd and give it to the homeless.... but that's just me.




second thought, better not do that
someone will chime in and let you know.

Heck...If it was me... I just drag it out to the Curb in front of my House, throw a *Free* sign on it. Its usually gone so fast the HOA never chance to notice!!

instead of a free sign put a price on it like $50.00 and some one will steal it.

The curb idea won't work in my subdivision. It's too small and there's no through traffic.

I will be willing to drive to Glendale if need be. My stuff is in a storage unit near Sky Harbor, so it's only ~30 minutes from there.

I think there is a dump off of the 202 red mountain and Country Club. Don't you live in Gilbert? If you do we have bulk trash once a month, mine is the first Monday of the month. It is always done on a Monday and you can put just about anything you want out there.

Yeup, we're in Gilbert. I'll have to see if they cruise through my lil neighborhood for the bulk stuff. That would make life easy.

Solid Waste

Here is the link for the gilbert bulk trash, I think you are either in unit b or c. Make sure you have your stuff out there by Sunday night, they pick up my bulk trash around 7am on Monday morning.
