Riverside Dump — Free Drop-Off Days, Landfills & Fees

City of Riverside residents can drop off bulky items free every third Saturday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., at the Agua Mansa Transfer Station, 1830 Agua Mansa Road, and get two free curbside bulky pickups a year. Any other day, Riverside County's Badlands Landfill takes a car or pickup load for $15.70.

Agua Mansa is Burrtec's Robert A. Nelson Transfer Station, and on the free Saturdays it doesn't take tires free: those cost $14 each for a car tire. Take tires to a Clean Up Riverside event instead.

Free bulky pickup and Clean Up Riverside

City of Riverside residents get two free curbside bulky-item appointments a year, up to five items each (three trash bags of 20 pounds or less count as one item, 15 bags at most). Call (951) 826-5311 to book, and have everything at the curb, not in the street, by 5:30 a.m. Items can go out the night before but not more than 24 hours ahead. Yard trimmings must be tied in bundles no more than 18 inches across and 36 inches long. Cancel before the prior business day closes or you lose the appointment.

The City's Clean Up Riverside events take bulky items and electronic waste free from City residents, plus up to eight passenger tires without rims, which Agua Mansa charges for.

Searching from Riverside, the finder also lists nearby private transfer stations and recyclers; they set their own prices.
