Appliances, including refrigerators, ranges, washers, dryers, water heaters and dishwashers, are named in the city code as bulky waste and go out on a scheduled special pickup.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Included in the free bulky allowance on the residential account, subject to the two worker handling rule.
When & how
Call Republic Services at (888) 742-5234 at least one calendar day ahead, excluding Saturday, Sunday and holidays, and keep the pickup to a group of five items.
Get it ready
Set the appliance at the curb only after the pickup is arranged, and keep it out of the carts. Only items two workers can handle are accepted, and hazardous materials such as waste oil and antifreeze are refused.
A bulky pickup is scheduled with Republic Services at (888) 742-5234 at least one calendar day ahead, excluding Saturday, Sunday and holidays, and items reach the curb only after that. Ordinance No. 2255 makes willfully depositing bulky waste on a street, sidewalk or public right-of-way a misdemeanor, and the flyer describes a red tag for a first unpermitted disposal and a green tag with a charge for a second.
Use a permitted, accessible outdoor spot. Arrange the move out of your home, keep shared access clear and follow your confirmation’s readiness instructions. Check with your building about access or staging limits before booking.
City of Hawthorne Public Works Department and Republic Services
Free bulky item pickups
Households with furniture, appliances, electronics, wood waste or tires within the annual allowance.
Cost & conditions
No charge. Up to twenty bulky items a calendar year free for each residential customer and each multifamily building over five units, scheduled in groups of no more than five, or four free special pickups of 64 cubic feet each by the trash page description.
Arrange it
Call Republic Services at (888) 742-5234 at least one calendar day ahead, excluding Saturday, Sunday and holidays, then set the items at the curb for the street sweeping day collection.
No single item that cannot be handled by two workers is accepted, items are not taken from carports, breezeways, enclosures, parking lots or subterranean garages, and hazardous materials including waste oil and antifreeze are refused.
City of Hawthorne Public Works Department and Republic Services
Bulky pickup beyond the free allowance
Households that have used the annual bulky allowance and still have items to clear, and commercial accounts.
Cost & conditions
The flyer states that customers who exceed the free pickups and commercial customers may receive bulky collection under the same terms for a fee, without publishing the amount. Confirm the current charge with Republic Services at (888) 742-5234.
Arrange it
Call the same scheduling line and confirm the fee before the extra pickup is booked.
The same item list, the five item grouping and the two worker handling rule apply to a paid pickup as to a free one, and an unpermitted pile can draw a tag or a fine.
Hawthorne residents have two self haul routes worth knowing. Electronic waste and household batteries ride free on top of the recycling cart on the regular collection day, with batteries bagged. Hazardous material, including paint, pesticides and light bulbs, is refused there and goes instead to the Hyperion Treatment Plant at 7660 W. Imperial Highway, Gate B, in Playa del Rey, which takes household hazardous and electronic waste free of charge on Saturdays and Sundays from 9:00 am to 3:00 pm with a limit of 15 gallons or 125 pounds per vehicle. The City also points to year round options: unused paint through PaintCare, used motor oil through the CalRecycle locator, household batteries through the state battery program and participating libraries, sharps and pharmaceuticals through the stewardship mail back kits, and electronics through Goodwill Southern California, with (888) CLEAN-LA or CleanLA.com for anything else.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Appliance removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Hawthorne.
How much does appliance removal cost in Hawthorne?+
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 Hawthorne?+
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 count as bulky waste?+
The city code names refrigerators, ranges, washers, dryers, water heaters, dishwashers, plumbing, small household appliances and similar items, commonly called white goods. They go out on the scheduled bulky pickup within the free annual allowance.Official guidance
Will the hauler take an appliance from a carport or parking structure?+
No. The flyer states that items are not removed from carports, breezeways, enclosures, parking lots or subterranean parking structures, so the appliance has to be at the curb location for collection.Official guidance
Who collects trash in Hawthorne?+
Republic Services collects under a franchise agreement with the City. The hauler's customer service line is (888) 742-5234, and the City Public Works Department can be reached at (310) 349-2980.Official guidance
How do holidays affect collection?+
Trash service is delayed one day after Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Labor Day, Memorial Day, the Fourth of July and Thanksgiving Day, and after Christmas Day and New Year's Day when those fall on a weekday.Official guidance
Where do paint, oil, batteries and sharps go?+
Paint goes through PaintCare, used motor oil through the CalRecycle collection center locator, household batteries through the state battery disposal program and participating libraries, and sharps and pharmaceuticals through the stewardship program, which includes mail back kits. Batteries can also go in a plastic bag on top of the recycling cart at no cost, and the hauler provides sharps containers, shipping boxes, labels and prepaid disposal within a week of a request.Official guidance
Why are workers inspecting carts?+
To keep the City in compliance with SB 1383, Republic Services reviews customer participation and contamination each year, with advisors in yellow safety vests checking cart and dumpster contents. Residents do not have to do anything differently beyond sorting correctly.Official guidance
