The sun’s out, coffee in hand, and you’ve finally decided, it’s time to ditch that broken lamp, the stack of wobbly chairs, and that mysterious box labeled “miscellaneous” from 2012.

Good news: Free Dump Day in Simi Valley is made for exactly this. It’s your chance to declutter without the hassle or the fees. But while you’re clearing out the junk in your garage, what about the digital clutter in your life? Like that slow internet connection that lags every time you stream.

‍

That’s where Flume comes in. Stick around, we’ll cover everything you need to know about Simi Valley's Free Dump Day, plus how Flume can help you clean up your connection with lightning-fast internet.

Let’s get into it.

What Is Simi Valley Free Dump Day?

Simi Valley Free Dump Day is a special event where Simi Valley residents can get rid of household junk for free. Yes, zero dollars and no hidden fees. 

‍

Plus, it’s not just about tossing things out, it’s about responsible waste disposal and making sure that the stuff we no longer need doesn’t end up harming the environment. It’s community-driven, eco-friendly, and honestly, pretty satisfying.

‍

And speaking of satisfaction, you know what else feels great? Upgrading your internet. With Flume’s high-speed internet (up to 1 Gb/s) you'll never have to deal with lag, buffering, or painfully slow downloads again.

What You Can (and Can’t) Bring to Free Dump Day

Alright, you’ve got the dates circled on your calendar, but before you start loading everything you own, let’s talk about what’s actually allowed.

What You Can Bring:

Think of it as a “goodbye party” for all the random stuff you’ve been meaning to toss.

• Old furniture: Couches, chairs, tables, you name it.
• Yard waste: Branches, leaves, and that pile of weeds.
• Bulky items: Mattresses, broken appliances, old carpets… basically, the big stuff that doesn’t fit in your regular trash bin.
• General household junk: That mystery box from the attic, the cracked plastic bins, even that treadmill you used exactly twice.

What You Can’t Bring:

Not everything gets a free pass. Some items need special handling because they’re hazardous to the environment.

• Electronic waste: No TVs, computers, laptops, or old phones. (But don’t worry, we’ll tell you when and where and when you can drop these off.)
• Household hazardous waste: Batteries, paint, chemicals, fluorescent light tubes, motor oil, and basically anything that sounds like it could start a small science experiment.
• Tires: You can bring up to five passenger or pickup tires, but tractor or commercial vehicle tires come with standard fees.

The golden rule? If it’s dangerous, could explode, start a small fire, is toxic, or something that could ruin a landfill worker’s day, don’t bring it.

And while we’re on the topic of getting rid of things that slow you down… how’s your internet? If buffering videos and slow downloads are driving you nuts, it’s time to “dump” your old provider and switch to Flume’s ultra-fast, no-lag internet. Trust us, this is the kind of upgrade you won’t regret.
