The short answer
The Midway City Sanitary District picks up bulky items in Westminster with its own crews. Each household can set out up to 2 items every 30 days. Book at least a week ahead, and don't put items out until your pickup is scheduled.

When the city pickup doesn’t fit
The program works when the items are at the curb and can wait for the pickup day. If they're still inside, upstairs or in the backyard, you're over the limit, or you need them gone sooner, we carry them out and haul them away. Pricing starts at $190; see junk removal in Westminster or single-item pickup.
