Large waste problems such as old furniture, broken electrical appliances, or bulky unused items often pose a headache for Bangkok residents, as they cannot be disposed of with regular daily trash. This sometimes leads to illegal dumping in vacant lots or canals, harming the environment and obstructing Bangkok's drainage systems.
. The Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) has continuously advanced policies for cleanliness and urban order by announcing the organization of the “Scheduled Large Waste Disposal” event for 2026. During the weekend on 4-5 July 2026, to facilitate residents in disposing of large unused items free of charge.
