Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) has announced the dates for bulky waste disposal in 2026. The service is free, covering all 50 districts across Bangkok. After the New Year, many households likely have "memorial items" left unusedin corners of their homes, whether it's an old sofa that's too worn to sit on,a mattressthat’s been replaced but the old one still leans against the wall, or.even wooden cabinets infested by termites. These items not only clutter the view but also accumulate dust and germs, making homes untidy. Today, Thairath Online suggests proper big trash disposal points that are convenient and satisfactory for homeowners.
The Bangkok Metropolitan Administration has organized the project "Big Trash Drop-off and Collection Days" on Saturday, 14 March 2026, and Sunday, 15 March 2026, offering free service with no charges. Residents can use the service at locations nearby. The dates and collection points are clearly specified to ensure efficient and convenient bulky waste management for every household.
Residents are requested to bring bulky waste and unwanted items out to the designated trash waiting areas in front of their homes before 08:30 a.m., for collection by officials between 09:00 a.m. and 12:00 p.m.
Bulky waste refers to general waste items too large to fit into regular trash bins, typically exceeding 1 meter in size or weighing more than 30 kilograms.
Separate bulky waste by type—furniture, electrical appliances, large sports equipment over 1 meter—cut down large pieces to shorter lengths, disassemble heavy items, and bundle smaller waste pieces together. Bring your ID card, electricity bill, or water bill as proof of residence.
1. Bring waste to the designated collection point.
2. Present identification to confirm ownership.
3. Officials will collect and transport the waste to disposal sites at no cost.
Additionally, for those needing to dispose of large quantities of bulky waste or located far from weekly drop-off points, services are available through the cleaning and public parks departments of each district office for a fee as per government regulations. Scan the QR CODE to contact the cleaning departments in all 50 districts.
