Appliances other than refrigerators and air conditioners
Accepted with preparation
Household appliances are not on the city's refused bulky list, with refrigerators and air conditioning units the two appliance categories named as not picked up, so a washer, dryer or stove can go out with the free pickup.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Included in the two free bulky item pickups a year for City of Pasadena refuse customers, inside the three cubic yard allowance.
When & how
Schedule through 626-744-7311 at least two weeks before the regular trash day, list the appliance on the service order, and set it out for the scheduled weekday.
Get it ready
Empty the unit and keep it within what two people can lift. Do not put a refrigerator or an air conditioning unit out with the bulky pile, because those are named as not picked up and need their own route.
Refrigerators and air conditioning units are named as not picked up in Pasadena bulky collection, and white goods are also refused at the city one-day e-waste events, so a cooling appliance needs a private or retailer route.
City cost & eligibility
No published Pasadena route or rate covers a refrigerator, freezer or air conditioning unit, because the bulky service, the e-waste events and the household hazardous waste programme all exclude them. Confirm a retailer take-back or a private hauler and its price before the unit leaves the property.
When & how
Arrange a retailer take-back or a private hauler rather than booking a bulky pickup, and confirm the charge and the collection day before the unit goes outside.
Get it ready
Keep the unit out of every cart and off the parkway, empty it first, and take the doors off so it cannot be entered. Do not take it to a city e-waste event, where white goods are refused.
Bulky items go on the parkway between the sidewalk and the street, in front of the house, and the resident has to put them there because city staff cannot enter private property. Nothing goes out before the pickup is scheduled, everything is out no more than 24 hours before the scheduled day and by 7 a.m. that morning, and early set-out can draw a citation from Code Enforcement. The pile may fill no more than a three cubic yard bin, about four feet wide, five feet long and four feet high, and each item has to be light enough for two people to lift safely.
Electronic waste such as televisions, DVD players, cellphones, gaming consoles, computers and monitors is refused, along with construction and roofing material such as concrete, cement, bricks, roof shingles, tiles and drywall, household hazardous materials such as paint, batteries, fertilizer, oil and cleaning supplies, landscaping project material such as dirt, sand, gravel, large branches and stumps, bushes and railroad ties, and automobile parts except up to two tires without rims. Refrigerators and air conditioning units are refused as well. Wood, pipe and branches must be no longer than three feet and tied into easy to handle bundles, and glass and mirrors should stay visible to the crew.
Household chemicals leave through the county network
Household hazardous waste cannot go in the garbage, down a storm drain or onto the ground. Los Angeles County residents can take paint, solvents, cleaning products, used motor oil and filters, antifreeze and other automotive fluids, pool and garden chemicals, aerosol cans, fluorescent bulbs and sharps to a free S.A.F.E. collection center or a county one-day event, with a limit of 15 gallons or 125 pounds per visit. Pasadena also takes household batteries and light bulbs at selected libraries and community centers, PaintCare retailers take leftover paint, and city refuse customers can have used oil and filters picked up curbside by appointment.
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.
A City of Pasadena refuse customer with furniture, a mattress, a household appliance or other bulky material that fits a three cubic yard pile and can be lifted by two people.
Cost & conditions
No charge. Two free bulky item pickups a year for households with city refuse service, subject to scheduling availability. Extra items and any pickup beyond the two free ones are charged.
Arrange it
Call 626-744-7311 at least two weeks before the regular trash day, list the items, and place them on the parkway between the sidewalk and the street for the scheduled weekday.
The load is limited to three cubic yards and to what two people can lift, pickups are not scheduled on holidays, electronics, construction material, hazardous waste, landscaping project debris, refrigerators and air conditioning units are refused, and residents whose trash is collected by a private hauler have to contact that hauler.
A household with a refrigerator, air conditioner or other item the city refuses, or a covered renovation with a construction load that needs an authorised hauler.
Cost & conditions
The city publishes no rate for a private pickup or a construction haul, and the covered project deposit is separate from the hauling price, so confirm the charge with the retailer, the hauler or the city before the load moves.
Arrange it
Arrange a retailer take-back or a private hauler for the appliance, and for a covered renovation follow the Green Halo process described by the city, including the waste management plan before the permit and the weight tickets before the final inspection.
Covered projects must divert at least 75 percent of waste and the deposit is refundable only after the compliance report is approved and the refund form is submitted. Hazardous material still has to go to the S.A.F.E. route rather than into a haul.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Appliance removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Pasadena.
How much does appliance removal cost in Pasadena?+
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 Pasadena?+
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.
Are appliances collected on a Pasadena bulky pickup?+
Household appliances are not on the refused list, so a washer, dryer or stove can go out with one of the two free bulky pickups a year, listed on the service order when you call 626-744-7311. Refrigerators and air conditioning units are the exception: the city names them as not picked up, and white goods are also refused at the city e-waste events.Official guidance
How do I get rid of a refrigerator in Pasadena?+
Not through the bulky pickup, because the city names refrigerators and air conditioning units as items it does not pick up, and not through a city e-waste event, where white goods are refused. Arrange a retailer take-back or a private hauler directly, and confirm the charge before the unit goes outside, with the doors removed.Official guidance
Who collects trash and bulky items in Pasadena?+
The city Public Works Department collects refuse from residential properties itself, and the City Service Center on 626-744-7311 handles bulky item appointments, bin rentals and used oil collections. Households whose trash is collected by a private hauler, such as apartment buildings, arrange bulky pickup with that hauler instead.Official guidance
How do I book a bulky pickup and what can go out?+
Call 626-744-7311 at least two weeks before your regular trash day and list the items you are putting out. The pile may fill no more than a three cubic yard bin, about four feet wide, five feet long and four feet high, each item has to be light enough for two people, and everything goes on the parkway between the sidewalk and the street within 24 hours of the pickup.Official guidance
What will the Pasadena bulky pickup not take?+
Electronic waste, construction and roofing material, household hazardous materials such as paint, batteries, oil and cleaning supplies, landscaping project material such as dirt, sand, gravel, branches, stumps and railroad ties, automobile parts other than up to two tires without rims, and refrigerators and air conditioning units are all refused. Wood and branches must be under three feet and tied in bundles.Official guidance
