Why Lowell calls us
Three generations, one phone number
Drouco Waste Removal has been a family-run waste removal business in southern New Hampshire for over 50 years — three generations of the same family showing up, working hard, and treating every job like the customer is our neighbor (because usually, they are). That's not a marketing line — it's how we've stayed in business this long.
No purple bags, no WM appointment — they just took it.
The Lowell disposal guide
Rather haul it yourself? Here's exactly how Lowell's town disposal works — the passes, the hours, the item rules. Or skip all of it and let us handle the run.
- AppliancesWhite goods (fridges, freezers, stoves, washers, dryers) are MA waste-ban items — not curbside; schedule a WM bulk pickup (fee).
- TVs & e-wasteElectronics are banned from curbside trash in Massachusetts — special disposal required.
- Brush & yard wasteYard waste collected seasonally by zone; check the Lowell DPW schedule.
- MattressesMattresses/box springs are MA waste-ban 'illegal' items at the curb (since 11/1/22) — special pickup only.
- Tricky itemsLowell is in Massachusetts, which means hard waste bans: mattresses and box springs are illegal at the curb, and white goods (fridges, freezers, stoves, washers, dryers) and electronics can't go out with normal trash either. Overflow trash needs $1-plus purple city bags (max five a week), and bulky pickups have to be scheduled and paid through Waste Management at 1-800-972-4545. Drouco handles the banned items, the heavy lifting, and the disposal in one trip.
FAQ
Questions Lowell homeowners ask
How much does swing set removal cost in Lowell?
Most Lowell swing set removals are flat-rate jobs. Larger wooden play sets with multiple towers cost more than basic metal sets.
Will you take care of the concrete footings?
Yes — your choice. We can either dig out and remove the footings entirely, or saw them off below grade and cap with soil. Tell us which.
Can the swing set be donated?
Sometimes — if it's structurally sound and a common model. We'll let you know on the phone. Most are too weathered for donation.
How long does it take?
Most swing set removals are 2–3 hours.
Do you also remove playhouses and forts?
Yes — same process. Backyard forts, playhouses, climbing structures, treehouses (within reason). Send a photo for a quote.
