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.

Appliances and white goods

Accepted with preparation

Refrigerators are named in the bulky examples, and the city also lists refrigerators and air conditioning units on its hazardous materials call line for proper handling.

City cost & eligibility
No charge. Indio residential customers on the Burrtec franchise, with unlimited free bulky item requests and a maximum of four items collected each week.
When & how
Book the appliance with Burrtec at (760) 340-2113 at least five days before the collection day, and confirm the refrigerant handling at the same time.
Get it ready
Empty and defrost the unit and secure the doors. Because the city lists refrigerators and air conditioning units among the hazardous materials that cannot go in the curbside containers and gives (760) 391-4129 for proper disposal, ask Burrtec how the sealed unit should be prepared before it goes to the curb.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

Nothing sits at the curb longer than a day

The city ordinance does not allow garbage or garbage containers to be left at the curbside for more than 24 hours, and the same 24 hour rule applies to a bulky item or electronic waste set-out before its scheduled pickup. Keeping the curb clear also discourages illegal dumping.

Book five days ahead and keep to four items a week

Bulky item and electronic waste pickups are free and unlimited in number, but each request has to reach Burrtec at least five days before the regular garbage collection day, the material goes out no more than 24 hours before the scheduled pickup, and Burrtec collects a maximum of four items a week.

Hazardous material never goes in the trash or recycling

Oil based paint, car batteries, refrigerators, air conditioning units, televisions, computer monitors, pesticides and similar items cannot go in the curbside trash or recycling containers. The city gives (760) 391-4129 for proper disposal and points at the Coachella and Indio Waste Transfer Station on Landfill Road, where the ABOP centre takes antifreeze, batteries, oil, filters and paint only. The county's permanent facility on Vella Road in Palm Springs takes all household hazardous waste types.

City of Indio and Burrtec Waste and Recycling Services

Book the free bulky item or electronic waste pickup

Indio households with a sofa, chair, refrigerator or similar large item, or with electronics such as a computer screen or printer that should not go in the regular trash.

Cost & conditions
No charge. Indio residential customers on the Burrtec franchise, with unlimited free bulky item and electronic waste requests and a maximum of four items collected each week.
Arrange it
Contact Burrtec at (760) 340-2113 at least five days before the regular garbage collection day, and set the material out no more than 24 hours before the scheduled pickup.

Four items a week, booked five days ahead, and free of charge. Hazardous materials such as oil based paint, car batteries, pesticides and sealed appliances are not part of this stream, and the city's hazardous call line at (760) 391-4129 handles proper disposal questions.

Review the pickup rules

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Indio runs the collection through Burrtec, the city's franchised hauler at (760) 340-2113, with garbage and recyclables weekly on the designated service day. Bulky items and electronic waste are free with unlimited requests: contact Burrtec at least five days before the collection day, keep to four items a week, and set nothing out more than 24 hours ahead. Sofas, chairs and refrigerators are the published bulky examples, electronics ride their own pickup at up to four items a week, and the Desert Arc events add a free e-waste drop-off open to the whole Coachella Valley. Paint, antifreeze, batteries, oil and filters go to the ABOP centre at 87-011 Landfill Road in Coachella, which the city runs with the City of Coachella, and anything else hazardous goes to the county's permanent facility on Vella Road in Palm Springs. Renovation material has no city route, so a project needs a private container or a receiving facility.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

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

How much does appliance removal cost in Indio?

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 Indio?

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 does an Indio refrigerator leave the property?

Refrigerators are the bulky example the city names, and the bulky pickup is free with unlimited requests and up to four items a week, booked with Burrtec at (760) 340-2113 at least five days ahead. The city also lists refrigerators and air conditioning units on its hazardous materials call line at (760) 391-4129, so confirm the sealed unit's handling when you book.Official guidance

Who collects trash in Indio?

Burrtec Waste and Recycling Services is the city's franchised hauler under an agreement effective July 1, 2022, and the ordinance requires the franchised hauler to provide collection. Residential garbage and recyclables are collected weekly on the designated service day. Service questions go to Burrtec at (760) 340-2113, and city programme questions go to the Environmental Programs Coordinator at (760) 625-1815.Official guidance

Where do Indio paint, oil and batteries go?

Antifreeze, batteries, oil, filters and paint go to the ABOP drop-off centre at 87-011 Landfill Road in Coachella, open 8 to 5 Monday through Friday and 8 to noon on Saturday, which the city runs with the City of Coachella and which takes those five materials only. Burrtec also collects up to 5 gallons of used motor oil at the curb for all Indio residents, old paint cans can go to a PaintCare location, and the county's permanent facility at 1100 Vella Road in Palm Springs takes all household hazardous waste types on Saturdays.Official guidance
