Virginia Beach bulk trash pickup: schedule, rules & how to schedule

Virginia Beach residents who get city curbside service can schedule a bulky or large-item pickup. Request it at least three days before your regular weekly trash day. The city encourages you to gather several items and make one request rather than booking many single-item pickups.
