Bulk Item/Brush Disposal 

There are two options available to Nags Head property owners to dispose of mattresses, furniture, white goods, or yard brush:  curbside collection, available October through April each year, and the drop-off option, (permit/sticker required to use the drop-off yard) located behind Nags Head's Public Services administrative office.

  1. Curbside Collection Option
  2. Drop-Off option 

Option 1 -  Bulk Item/Brush Curbside Collection

Nags Head’s curbside collection of bulk and brush runs from Beginning of October through the end of April. The last day to place bulk items at the curb will be April 30. This service is for homeowners and residents of improved lots. 

There is no on-demand collection or a waiting list (you will not need to call in). You can put your separated piles out anytime between October 1 through April 30, each year.
