Watertown requires all bulk items and appliances to be scheduled and paid for through Republic Services before pickup — items placed at the curb without scheduling are considered illegal dumping and can result in a fine. Here's exactly how the city system works:

Bulk furniture items are collected on Wednesdays only — must be scheduled by calling 844-737-8254. White goods (appliances) are collected on Thursdays only — also requiring a call to Republic Services. Small and medium appliances cost $25 per item. Large appliances cost $50 per item. Refrigerators require door removal before curbside placement — it's a city requirement. TVs and monitors require scheduling and payment through Republic Services for Thursday pickup. Mattresses cannot go to the landfill — Massachusetts banned mattress landfill disposal in November 2022.

We skip the entire process. We come inside, carry everything out from wherever it sits, and haul it away the same day. No scheduling through Republic Services, no Wednesday or Thursday wait, no risk of an illegal dumping fine, no removing refrigerator doors yourself.

Watertown's housing stock is almost entirely pre-World War II — duplexes and small apartment buildings make up over 40% of the city, with large apartment complexes adding another 29%. That means tight staircases, deep basements, and cast iron heating systems that haven't been updated since the 1950s. We've done jobs near the Arsenal Yards development on Arsenal Street, cleared out Coolidge Square duplexes with no alley access, hauled boilers from Bemis neighborhood walk-ups off Common Street, and run estate cleanouts in the West End. We know which streets in Watertown Square have permit parking restrictions and which buildings near East Watertown have loading dock access. We come prepared every time.

East Watertown — Mt. Auburn Street, Langdon Avenue & the Cambridge Line

East Watertown is its own world compared to the rest of the city. You are right on the Cambridge and Belmont border — dense residential streets lined with two-families and triple-deckers, Mt. Auburn Street running through as the main commercial corridor, and the Star Market area anchoring the neighborhood on the east end. Arax Market, the Thai restaurants, and the small businesses along that stretch give East Watertown more of a Cambridge feel than a Watertown one — and the housing reflects it. Older buildings, tight lots, and basements that have been accumulating since the Eisenhower administration.

We come into East Watertown regularly from Somerville via Mt. Auburn Street or through Cambridge — usually well under 15 minutes. Here is what we handle most in this part of town:

Langdon Avenue, Winsor Avenue, and Hillside Road: Quiet residential streets packed with pre-war two-families and small apartment buildings. Basement cleanouts, appliance removal, and estate haul-outs are the most common calls from these blocks.

Mt. Auburn Street corridor: The main artery through East Watertown running from the Cambridge line toward Watertown Square. Residential buildings above commercial storefronts, duplexes tucked behind businesses, and the occasional landlord turnover in a building that has not had a cleanout in twenty years.

Belmont Street and the northern border: Where East Watertown bleeds into Belmont. Single-family homes and small multifamily buildings with large basements. Estate cleanouts and full garage haul-outs are frequent here.

Prentiss Street and the back streets toward Grove Street: Dense residential, older stock, tight alley access in some spots. We have done it before and we come prepared.
