The old one has a way out

One less loose end before the new one arrives.

A replacement is on its way. A broken washer is taking up space. Or the old fridge is the last thing left before a move. Give that appliance its own pickup plan, with a price you can see and a day you can choose.

A washer and dryer count as two.

Every appliance has its own catalog choice and price. Add only the items you want taken away, then review the exact total before booking.

Laundry appliances

Front-load and top-load washing machines use the washing machine choice. Add the dryer separately. Contact us about a single combined laundry unit or a stack that still needs separating.

Fridges and freezers

Choose Refrigerator for a full-size household fridge. Mini fridges and separate freezers have their own choices. Contact us first if the model or refrigerant needs checking.

Kitchen appliances

Stoves, dishwashers and microwaves are available in All appliances. Built-in units must already be detached and outside. Send a photo if your appliance does not match a listed choice.

Appliance removal in Mobile: start with the item’s collection rules, then choose the arrangement that fits.

Reviewed · Sources below

Washers, dryers and other appliances

Special rules apply

Appliances are banned from both the brown garbage cart and the every-other-week trash pile. The city asks residents to place a work order for an appliance or electronics pickup instead.

City cost & eligibility
The city does not publish a fee for an appliance work order. Call Public Works at 208-5311 to open the order and confirm the collection.
When & how
Call 208-5311 to place the work order instead of adding the appliance to a pile or a cart.
Get it ready
Keep the appliance off the trash pile, because the city states that the entire pile will be left if electronics, appliances or other prohibited items are mixed in. Ask about refrigerant appliances separately, because the city will not pick up a unit that holds freon, oil or gas.

Refrigerators, freezers and air conditioners

Special rules apply

The city states that it will not pick up refrigerators, freezers or air conditioners that contain hazardous material such as freon, oil or gas, and the household hazardous waste event refuses appliances as well.

City cost & eligibility
No city route or fee is published for a refrigerant appliance, so confirm the correct disposal route with Public Works at 208-5311.
When & how
Call Public Works before moving the unit, and do not place it in the cart or on the trash pile.
Get it ready
Do not put a refrigerator, freezer or air conditioner that holds refrigerant on the curb, because the city leaves the pile and the hazardous waste event does not accept appliances.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

What must stay off the pile and the cart

Do not put electronics, appliances, paint, tires, glass, sinks, bathtubs, HVAC units, sheetrock, insulation or fencing on the trash pile or in the garbage cart. The city leaves the entire pile when prohibited items are mixed in, and appliances that hold refrigerant are not picked up at all. Household chemicals, batteries and paint belong at a household hazardous waste collection event.

City of Mobile Public Works Department

Place a work order with Public Works

A household with an appliance or a batch of electronics that cannot go in the cart or on the trash pile.

Cost & conditions
The city does not publish a fee for the appliance or electronics work order, so confirm the charge when the order is placed.
Arrange it
Call Public Works at 208-5311 and place a work order for an appliance or electronics pickup, then follow the placement instruction you are given.

Appliances that contain freon, oil or gas are not picked up, and the city does not say whether a television qualifies for this route, so confirm the exact item when you call.

Read the Mobile trash collection rules

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Mobile residents can self-haul, and the city lists four area landfills with their addresses, phones and hours on one page. Only the Chastang Landfill listing includes household garbage alongside trash and demolition debris; the other three are listed for trash and demolition debris only, and the page carries no fee schedule for any of them, so confirm the price and the accepted material before leaving. Recycling and residential electronics are the exception at the curb, because the three city drop-off centers take them free from Mobile residents.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

Appliance removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Mobile.

How much does appliance removal cost in Mobile?

A full-size household refrigerator is $109 as a single item. A washing machine is $109, and a dryer is $109. Other appliances have their own catalog prices. Choose each item to see your exact total before booking; disposal and recycling costs are included in the item price.

Can I get same-day appliance pickup in Mobile?

Book by 2pm at your pickup address for same-day pickup, where available. Checkout shows the dates you can choose. Your pickup is scheduled for a day rather than an exact arrival appointment, and we text you before arrival. Have the appliance disconnected and ready outside by your pickup readiness time.

Can you take a washing machine and dryer in one pickup?

Yes. Add one Washing machine and one Dryer so both units are included in the price. They are separate items, even when you bought them as a set. If yours is a single combined unit or the machines still need to be unstacked, contact us before booking to confirm the scope.

Will you disconnect my appliance or carry it out?

Dropcurb picks up appliances that are already disconnected and accessible outside at ground level. Arrange uninstallation, utility disconnection and indoor carrying before pickup. Use a qualified professional for gas, hardwired or plumbing connections when needed. We handle loading and haul-away from the outdoor pickup spot.

Can I book if the delivery company did not take my old appliance?

Yes. Dropcurb pickup is separate from buying or installing a replacement, so you can book removal on its own. Select the old appliance, choose a pickup day and arrange for it to be disconnected and accessible outside. If your new delivery is still ahead, confirm the retailer’s haul-away arrangements before booking a separate pickup.

How do I get an appliance picked up in Mobile?

Call Public Works at 208-5311 and place a work order for an appliance pickup. Appliances cannot go in the brown garbage cart or on the every-other-week trash pile, because the city leaves the whole pile when prohibited items are mixed in.Official guidance

Why will Mobile not pick up a refrigerator or freezer?

The city states that refrigerators, freezers and air conditioners containing hazardous material such as freon, oil or gas are not picked up, and the household hazardous waste event also refuses appliances. Call Public Works at 208-5311 to confirm the route before moving the unit.Official guidance

What does Mobile charge to collect a large trash pile?

Mobile does not publish a per-item fee. The every-other-week residential trash service covers a pile up to about two cubic yards or 15 bags, and a pile beyond that is collected by Public Works for a charge based on its size, with an estimate issued through a work order at 208-5311. Appliance and electronics work orders and self-haul landfill loads also have no published rate. Dropcurb prices a pickup separately and shows the total at checkout.Official guidance

Where does Mobile take paint, chemicals and batteries?

The city holds free household hazardous waste collection events for Mobile residents, and the fall 2026 event runs Saturday, September 26 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the James Seals Community Center, 540 Texas Street. The event takes automotive fluids, batteries, fluorescent tubes, paint up to a 15 gallon limit, cleaners, pesticides, pool chemicals, flammables and solvents, and it refuses appliances, electronics, tires, ammunition and medical waste.Official guidance
