Free Dump Event

The Solid Waste Management Division (SWMD) offers Free Dump Events six weekends a year – typically in the Spring and Fall – for City of Fresno Solid Waste customers to dispose of bulky items at the Cedar Avenue Recycling & Transfer Station (CARTS) facility at no additional cost.

SWMD will host their Spring 2025 Free Dump events on March 22 & 23, May 3 & 4, and June 7 & 8. These events will take place from 7:00 a.m. – 2:30 p.m. each day at CARTS, located at 3457 S Cedar Ave, Fresno, CA 93725.

Eligible participants are limited to one Full-Size pickup truck payload per household (Approximately 8’x4’x4′). Bulky items can be delivered in vehicles or small trailers as long as they don’t exceed the allowable limit. Participants who bring unpermitted items may be liable for penalties under civil and/or criminal codes.

This service is limited to Fresno residents who pay for City of Fresno solid waste collection services. Customers must be present and provide a City of Fresno Utility Bill or a Proof of Eligibility Form, AND a State-issued ID.
