Free Bulky Item Disposal Events

Event Overview

Twice per year, the City of Jurupa Valley partners with Burrtec to provide an opportunity for Jurupa Valley residents to dispose of solid waste, green waste, bulky items, and e-waste for free.

The event takes place at Patriot High School and is typically held in April and October each year.

Please note: No hazardous waste will be collected at this event. Materials such as abrasive cleaners, asbestos, car and household batteries, paint, small propane tanks, and used motor oil and filters can be disposed of at the Riverside County Regional Household Hazardous Waste Facility (1780 Agua Mansa Road) on Saturdays from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.

Bulky items

Keep Streets Clean & Mitigate Illegal Dumping

Providing this free service to residents helps keep our streets clean and mitigates instances of illegal dumping. Jurupa Valley is a frequent target of illegal dumping, with people dumping bulky items on the side of the road and vacant lots due to the costs and inconveniences of disposing bulky items. These free events serve to mitigate that.

Residents are encouraged to plan ahead and confirm with their respective waste hauler that the items they are bringing are indeed acceptable. Residents must also bring valid identification to prove that they are indeed residents of Jurupa Valley. These events are not open to commercial businesses.
