Manchester offers two bulk-item paths: (1) curbside Bulky Item Pickup by appointment for residents only at $25 per pickup, max 5 items per appointment, scheduled online via manchesternh.gov; or (2) self-haul to the Drop Off Facility at 500 Dunbarton Rd where residents get the first 10 bulky non-metal items per year free across a maximum of 2 trips, with metal items and appliances always free. Mattresses, couches, rugs, and similar count as bulky non-metal. Doors, sinks, toilets, and fixed cabinetry are billed at the construction-debris rate (8.75¢/lb), NOT the bulky-item rate. Curbside bulk pickup is not available to most large multi-family buildings — Millyard and downtown apartment residents typically must self-haul or hire a private hauler.

Manchester hosts two free Household Hazardous Waste collection events per year at the Drop Off Facility (500 Dunbarton Road), held the second Saturdays of May and October from 8 AM to 2 PM. Manchester residents only; proof of residency required; up to 10 gallons of liquid HHW and 20 pounds of solid HHW per household per event. Liquids must be in labeled containers no larger than 5 gallons each (no garbage bags). No facility permit required for HHW events. Latex paint, electronics, and tires are NOT accepted at HHW events — those go through regular drop-off. 2026 spring event confirmed for Saturday, May 9, 2026; verify the October 2026 date at manchesternh.gov/HHW.

Under New Hampshire RSA 149-M:27, the following items are banned from solid-waste landfills and incinerators: wet-cell (lead-acid) batteries (since 1991), rechargeable lithium-ion batteries (effective July 1, 2025), electronic devices including TVs, monitors, computers, peripherals, DVD/VCR players, cell phones, and tablets (since 2007), and leaf/yard waste. RSA 149-M:58 separately bans mercury-added products (fluorescent and CFL bulbs, mercury thermostats and switches). Effective February 1, 2025, businesses generating one ton or more of food waste per week must divert it when an authorized facility exists within 20 miles. Contrary to common belief: mattresses are NOT banned from NH landfills (unlike Massachusetts) and as of May 2026 NH has NO statewide PaintCare or paint-stewardship program — Governor Ayotte vetoed HB 451 in March 2026 and the House override failed on April 9, 2026. Illegal dumping under RSA 149-M:15 carries civil penalties up to $25,000 per day plus criminal misdemeanor/felony charges; report to local police or NH DES at (603) 271-2942.
