Oklahoma City doesn't run its own landfill; four private landfills serve the city. Twice a year, in May and September, the city holds Free Landfill Days when residential trash customers can dump at all four for free. In 2026 they were May 2 and September 12.
The rest of the year, use your monthly bulky waste pickup (the first 4 cubic yards are included in your trash bill) and the city's free household hazardous waste center on South Portland.

Set items out by 6 a.m., no more than three days early, loose (not bagged) and 5 feet from anything else. Limbs must be under 10 feet.
The first 4 cubic yards (about two large refrigerators) are included. From 4 to 10 yards, the pile is tagged and billed; over 10 yards, call to approve the charge first. Refrigerators, freezers and air conditioners need their doors removed and a scheduled pickup: (405) 297-2833. Report a missed pickup within two business days at the same number, extension 3.
Twice a year, in May and September. In 2026 they were Saturday, May 2 and Saturday, September 12. They're for OKC residential trash customers with a current trash bill.
