If you have an item that does not fit into your trash cart, please reach out by phone (772) 581-2770 (extension 2) or email Town Hall. Removal will take place on a regular collection day. The Town will notify Waste Pro on your behalf so that the pick-up crew knows to expect the item. It's helpful to mark the item with a piece of paper that says "Trash", so that the crew feels extra confident removing it from your property.
If the item is in good repair, you may also consider arranging a free pick-up from a local charity. This helps keep the landfill clear and supports the community. Below are some local examples of organizations that offer free collection, listed in no particular order (this list is not exhaustive):
- Goodwill: (800) 257-3305
- ReStore (Habitat for Humanity): (772) 257-0222
- Visiting Nurse Association: (772) 494-6161
- Salvation Army: (800) 728-7825
If you don't want to wait for a pick-up, you may be able to take your outsize item to the Winter Beach Convenience Center at 3955 65th Street, Vero Beach, FL 32967. It is open daily from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m., except on Tuesdays and Wednesdays when it is closed. In addition to the materials you place in your regular residential recycling, Customer Convenience Centers accept a variety of Household Hazardous Waste, including rechargeable lithium-ion batteries, fluorescent light bulbs, motor oil, water- and oil-based paints, items containing mercury, and medical "sharps" for safe disposal.
You can also drop off items that are not accepted in your blue cart, such as white Styrofoam, plastic bags, plastic wrap, scrap metal, electronics, tires, and small yard waste. Construction debris is prohibited and must be taken directly to the County Landfill.
