Rosedale is a small grid of streets between 4 Street and 10 Street NW, sitting on top of McHugh Bluff above Sunnyside. The older houses date back to the late 1920s onward, and a fair number have been renovated or replaced over the years. Most of the people here own, and most of them stay a long time.
Junk pickup in Rosedale usually follows a project. A kitchen redo, a basement clean-out, a garage that finally got sorted. Put it in the back lane by 8 am on Tuesday or Friday. You can be at work. We'll text a photo once it's loaded.
Where to leave it in Rosedale
The back lanes are the easy answer here. Set items beside your garage or parking pad, tight to your property line so the lane stays open for cars.
If you don't have rear access, the front curb is fine. Just keep it off the boulevard trees and clear of the sidewalk.
Out the morning of pickup, not the night before. Lane piles tend to grow overnight when neighbours see an opportunity.
What people get rid of in Rosedale
Old houses collect things in layers. A typical Rosedale pickup is some mix of:
- A dresser or desk that's been in the basement for decades
- Cabinet doors and a vanity from a bathroom reno
- Bagged plaster and lath from a small demo (bagged, and light enough for one person)
- Garden waste from a big spring cleanup, in yard bags
We can't take old paint, which turns up a lot in houses this age. The City's Eco Centres take it.
Junk pickup pricing in Rosedale
Curbside starts at $69. No travel fee, and the price is the same here as in the newer suburbs. We don't go into basements, so it needs to be up and outside first. Get your price.
