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.

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.

Accepted with preparation

Refrigerators, ranges, washers, dryers, water heaters, dishwashers and small household appliances are all on the bulky item list.

City cost & eligibility
No charge. Included in the four free bulky pickups a year for single-family and three-or-fewer-unit residential customers, within the six item limit per pickup.
When & how
Call Republic Services at (800) 299-4898 at least 48 hours ahead of the regular pickup, and the appliance is collected on the next service day after the request.
Get it ready
Leave the appliance whole and out of the carts, and keep it to an item two workers can handle, because the guide refuses any single item that cannot be handled by two workers.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

A bulky pickup is scheduled, not set out

Bulky items only go out after a pickup is scheduled at (800) 299-4898, and they are collected on the next service day after the request. Keep the pile to six items, keep each piece within what two workers can handle, and leave hazardous waste, construction debris, tires and car bodies out of it.

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Compton has no city-owned drop-off site, so the routes are the three weekly carts, the free quarterly bulky pickup and a rented container for project loads. Television, computer and other electronic waste is handled for free for single-family and three-or-fewer-unit customers through the hauler at (800) 299-4898, and other accounts call the Waste Division at (310) 605-5524. Household hazardous waste, tires, fluorescent lights and other restricted items are not collected at the curb, and the City sends residents to the county line at (800) 353-2652 for those. The City also runs free annual paper shredding, compost giveaway and cleanup events for residents.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

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

How much does appliance removal cost in Compton?

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 Compton?

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.

Which appliances will Compton take?

Refrigerators, ranges, washers, dryers, water heaters, dishwashers, plumbing and small household appliances are named in the bulky item list, so they go out on one of the free quarterly pickups. Schedule at (800) 299-4898.Official guidance

What does an extra cart cost?

The City guide publishes a monthly rate for each additional trash cart, each additional recycling cart and each additional organics cart. Extra carts require homeowner authorization if the requester is a tenant, carry a twelve month minimum, and the monthly charges are added to the property tax bill.Official guidance

Who collects trash in Compton?

Republic Services provides exclusive waste and recycling collection for Compton's residential, commercial and industrial accounts, and residential service is billed through the City of Compton Waste Division. Reach the hauler at (800) 299-4898 and the City Waste Division at (310) 761-1420.Official guidance

How do holidays affect collection?

When New Year's Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day or Christmas Day is observed on a weekday, collections for the remainder of that week are delayed one day, and the regular schedule returns the following week.Official guidance

What if my carts are not collected?

Contact Republic Services at (800) 299-4898 on the service day, and the guide states that collection will be completed by the next day. Separate trucks collect the recycling, organics and trash carts, so one cart may be emptied before the others are.Official guidance

What happens to a holiday tree?

Holiday trees are collected curbside for recycling during the three weeks after Christmas at no additional charge, on the regular collection day by a different truck. Remove ornaments, lights, garland, tinsel and stands, cut a tree over ten feet tall in half, and know that flocked trees cannot be recycled and go into the trash cart in pieces.Official guidance
