Bulk Busting Tips for the Savvy Detroiter
- Size Matters: Be warned, there's a limit to your bulky bounty. The city will only accept up to 2 cubic yards of bulk items per pickup, roughly the size of a loveseat or two very large egos.
- Not-So-Bulky Bulkers Beware: This ain't the place for your leftover hazardous waste or construction debris. Those require special disposal methods, so save yourself a ticket and dispose of them properly. Check the city's website for details.
- Bulk Brigade, Assemble!: Got a mountain of mammoth mismatched furniture? Consider enlisting the help of a friend or two (pizza and moral support highly recommended) to help you wrestle those bulky beasts to the curb.
Now you, my friend, are a bonafide Bulk Busting Boss!
