Not accepted

Uprights often weigh several hundred pounds and grands far more, so moving one down steps takes several people and the right equipment. Ask a piano technician whether yours is worth restoring before you pay to have it removed.
How pickup works in Gainesville
Gainesville takes bulk items every week on your garbage day at no extra cost, and crews may come any time until noon the next day. Appliances and electronics are the exception and need an appointment. The not-accepted list is long, covering hot tubs, pianos, sheds, fencing and decking, so check it before you drag anything out.
