One item a week, booked in advance, and the preparation is yours
Georgetown contracts its collection out rather than running it, and the rule that follows from that is simple to state and slower to live with than it first sounds.

Bulk items Republic Services will collect per week from a Georgetown address
City of Georgetown, KY, Solid Waste and Recycling with Republic Services, Republic customer service (502) 209-3800
One, weekly, free. The city states that “Republic Services will collect one bulk item per week at no cost.” It has to be arranged ahead of time by ringing customer service on (502) 209-3800. This is not a put-it-out-and-hope service.
The preparation is specified, and it is on you. Mattresses must be “wrapped in plastic.” Furniture must be “fully assembled”. Taking the bed apart to make it easier is the wrong move here. “Large appliances including washers and refrigerators” go with the doors removed. Brush has its own shape: “bundled brush cut to four foot lengths and tied into bundles weighing less than 50 pounds.”
Construction debris is out entirely. The city is unambiguous: Republic “can not accept construction debris, such as brick, concrete, dirt, or composition shingles.” A bathroom rip-out or a re-roof has no curbside route in Georgetown at all.
So the honest summary is this. For one sofa, this service is better than hiring anyone. For a garage, a basement or a house, one item a week is a schedule rather than a solution, and that is the arithmetic below.
Republic customer service is (502) 209-3800 and is the authority on its own contract; the city page is a summary of it. This is a plain-English summary of published material, not legal advice.
Junk removal work we do across Scott County
One item or a houseful: loaded, hauled and disposed of, with the recyclable and donatable part separated out rather than tipped. See the full junk removal service
Garage & Basement
The one the weekly rule cannot solve.
Georgetown garages off Cherry Blossom and Lanes Run fill the way every garage does. Emptied in one visit rather than eleven.
Garage & basement cleanouts
Estate Cleanouts
Where one-a-week will not do it.
A whole house at the contracted rate of one item a week is a project measured in seasons. This is the clearest case in Georgetown for paying someone.
Estate cleanouts
Hoarding Cleanouts
Volume the contract cannot absorb.
The weekly bulk allowance is sized for a sofa, not a household. Discretion, and a crew who have done it before.
Hoarding cleanouts
Construction Debris
Excluded by name in the contract.
Brick, concrete, dirt and composition shingles are refused outright, so a Scott County renovation has no free route at any pace.
Construction debris removalOne item a week is a schedule, not a solution
This is the whole decision in Georgetown, and it is arithmetic rather than judgement. Count the things. If the answer is one, ring Republic. If the answer is eleven, the free service is not free: it is eleven weeks.
01
The eleven-week garage
A typical garage clearout is a mower, two bikes, a chest freezer, a sofa, four boxes of paint tins and a dismantled bed. At one item a week that is a project lasting into next season.
Same garage, one visit, one price. That is the entire case for paying anyone.
02
Plastic, and doors
A mattress not wrapped in plastic is a mattress left on the curb. An appliance with its doors still on is the same. Both rules are published and both are routinely missed.
If you are using the free service, read the prep rules twice. They are enforced.
03
The debris line
Brick, concrete, dirt and composition shingles are excluded from the contract. There is no curbside route for them in Georgetown, free or otherwise.
This is a dumpster or a trade collection. We do both, and say which is cheaper.
Junk removal prices in Georgetown
The same published ranges as the main junk removal service: a page about one city should not quote you a different number from the page about the service. You get a firm figure before anything starts.
Single item
$100 to $280
One item, or two or three together. Curbside is the low end; upstairs or a tight doorway is the high end.
Standard junk removal
$100 to $640+
Priced on how much of the truck it fills, from a few items to multiple rooms' worth.
Garage or basement cleanout
$280 to $1,280+
A single garage or partial basement through to a packed space or a whole-property clear.
- How much there is
- Volume is the main driver. Two or three photos from the doorway tells us more than a description does.
- Where it is
- Curbside or garage is the cheapest. Stairs, basements and narrow lots mean a longer carry.
- What it is made of
- Weight moves the disposal cost. Concrete, dirt and shingles price differently from household clutter.
- How fast you need it
- Same-day depends on what is already booked. Asking early in the day is what gets it done that day.

Questions we get from Scott County
If yours isn’t here, call: we’d rather answer it before you book than after.
Working to a deadline?
Send photos with the address and the date. Same-day depends on what is already booked, so asking early in the day is what gets it done that day.
(859) 213-6077Does Georgetown collect large items for free?
Yes, but one at a time. The city states that “Republic Services will collect one bulk item per week at no cost.” You have to book it ahead on (502) 209-3800 rather than simply putting it out. For a single sofa that is a better deal than hiring anyone, and we will tell you so.
Do I have to wrap a mattress in plastic in Georgetown?
For the free collection, yes. The published rule lists “mattresses wrapped in plastic” among accepted items. An unwrapped mattress is a common reason a curbside collection does not happen. When we take one, none of this applies: we wrap and load it ourselves, from wherever it is in the house.
Why will the city not take my renovation debris?
It is excluded from the contract. The city says Republic “can not accept construction debris, such as brick, concrete, dirt, or composition shingles.” There is no curbside route for it in Georgetown. That is either a dumpster or a trade collection, and which one is cheaper depends on how long the job runs: ask us and we will say honestly.
Can I put the bed frame out in pieces?
No, the opposite. The published rule asks for “fully assembled” furniture. Dismantling it to be helpful is the one preparation that makes it ineligible. Brush is the exception with its own shape: cut to four-foot lengths and tied into bundles under fifty pounds.
Do you cover Stamping Ground and Sadieville?
Yes, along with the rest of Scott County. Note that the bulk collection rules above are the city contract: addresses outside the Georgetown collection area may be on a different arrangement, so check your own bill before relying on them.
Is there a minimum job?
Yes, and it is published in the price section above rather than discovered on the phone. If your job is genuinely one item and you can wait for the weekly slot, ring Republic instead of us. We would rather have the garage in March than the sofa this week.
