TALLAHASSEE, FL \u2014 The City of Tallahassee is bringing back its biannual “Cash for Trash” event on Saturday, April 18th, offering residents a $5 utility bill credit to properly dispose of bulk items and hazardous waste.<\/p>\n
The event runs from 8:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. at the Community Beautification and Waste Management facility, located at 2727 Major James Morgan Jr. Way near Messer Field.<\/p>\n
Residents can drop off furniture, large and small household appliances, electronics, computers, and up to four non-commercial tires. <\/p>\n
The City will also accept household hazardous waste, including batteries, cleaners, paints, pesticides, and solvents, except household garbage, yard waste, or construction and demolition debris.<\/p>\n
The event is strictly for residential customers with active garbage service; commercial business customers cannot participate. While residents can make multiple trips, the city will only issue one $5 utility credit per account.<\/p>\n
City officials encourage residents to use their every-other-week bulky item curbside collection, but note this event is especially useful for apartment residents or those with several large items to discard.<\/p>\n
The National Civic League named Tallahassee an All-America City in 2025, recognizing environmental programs like “Cash for Trash” and single-stream recycling.<\/p>\n
