Appliances and white goods

Accepted with preparation

Appliances are named in the large bulky item program, which collects up to two items such as appliances, mattresses and furniture in a set out, and the hauler asks for the doors to be removed or sealed.

City cost & eligibility
No charge. An appliance is collected as one of the two large bulky items at no additional charge on a scheduled clean-up day, provided it falls in the 60 to 200 pound per item range; anything heavier than 200 pounds is refused.
When & how
Set the appliance out on the address's clean-up day by 5:30 a.m., within 3 feet of the curb and clear of the street and the sidewalk.
Get it ready
Remove or seal the doors on a refrigerator, freezer or other appliance before it goes out, and empty the unit. Keep hazardous waste out of the pile, and take paint, chemicals and batteries through the household hazardous waste programs instead.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

The bulky program runs on scheduled clean-up days, not on request

San Ramon does not book bulky pickups on demand. Every single-family address gets three neighborhood clean-up days a year, listed by address on the hauler's schedule, and each set out takes up to 3 cubic yards of material plus two large bulky items such as appliances, mattresses and furniture, with four car or light truck tires allowed if the rims are separated. Items go within 3 feet of the curb by 5:30 a.m. on the scheduled day and no more than 24 hours in advance, and two different vehicles collect what is put out. Volume beyond the limit and an extra clean-up outside the scheduled days are both charged separately.

Hazardous waste has its own two routes

Hazardous items never go in an ACI container or a clean-up pile. San Ramon residents can book a free door-to-door collection with Clean Harbors at 1-800-433-5060, which sends a containment kit and takes one type of material per bag, sealed and ready by 6 a.m. on the appointment day, with no container larger than five gallons. The other route is the Central Contra Costa Sanitary District facility at 4797 Imhoff Place in Martinez, free to San Ramon residents with no appointment and open Monday through Saturday from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m., where a visit is limited to 15 gallons or 125 pounds in containers no larger than five gallons. Leftover paint can also go back to many retailers through PaintCare.

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Self-hauling in San Ramon splits into three cases. A household with furniture, appliances, a mattress, a television or tires goes through the neighborhood clean-up program instead of a transfer station: every single-family address gets three clean-up days a year, each set out takes up to 3 cubic yards of material, up to four car or light truck tires with the rims separated and two large bulky items between 60 and 200 pounds, and the items go within 3 feet of the curb by 5:30 a.m. on the scheduled day. A household with paint, solvents, automotive fluids, batteries, bulbs, televisions, computers, medications or sharps uses the household hazardous waste routes: a free door-to-door collection booked with Clean Harbors at 1-800-433-5060, or the Central Contra Costa Sanitary District facility at 4797 Imhoff Place in Martinez, which is free to San Ramon residents with no appointment, open Monday through Saturday from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m., and limits a visit to 15 gallons or 125 pounds in containers no larger than five gallons. A project with dirt, rock, construction or demolition debris including pallets is refused by the clean-up program and uses the hauler's debris box service, ordered at 925-380-9480.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

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

How much does appliance removal cost in San Ramon?

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 San Ramon?

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.

Can a refrigerator go out on a San Ramon clean-up day?

Yes, as one of the two large bulky items a clean-up set out allows, provided the unit is between 60 and 200 pounds. The hauler asks that the doors be removed or sealed before the appliance is set out, and the items go within 3 feet of the curb by 5:30 a.m. on the scheduled clean-up day. Hazardous waste cannot ride along with it and has its own collection programs.Official guidance

Who collects trash and bulky items in San Ramon?

ACI of San Ramon is the franchised hauler for garbage, recyclables and organics and has run the city service since October 1, 2019. Cart service is billed quarterly by cart size, and bulky items are collected on the three neighborhood clean-up days each single-family address is scheduled for rather than by appointment. The hauler answers at 925-380-9480.Official guidance

How do I find my San Ramon clean-up day?

San Ramon schedules three neighborhood clean-up days a year by address rather than taking bulky appointments. The dates are listed by address on the hauler's clean-up schedule, or a resident can call 925-380-9480. Items go within 3 feet of the curb by 5:30 a.m. on the scheduled day and no more than 24 hours in advance, with up to 3 cubic yards of material and two large bulky items.Official guidance

Where do paint, batteries and televisions go in San Ramon?

Hazardous items never go in a cart or a clean-up pile. Two free routes exist for residents: a door-to-door collection booked with Clean Harbors at 1-800-433-5060, which sends a containment kit and takes one sealed bag from the property with no container larger than five gallons, and the Central Contra Costa Sanitary District facility at 4797 Imhoff Place in Martinez, which needs no appointment and is open Monday through Saturday from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. Paint, solvents, automotive fluids, batteries, bulbs, e-waste and sharps are among the accepted materials, a visit is limited to 15 gallons or 125 pounds, and leftover paint can also go back to retailers through PaintCare.Official guidance

What will the San Ramon clean-up program not take?

Dirt, rock and construction or demolition debris including pallets, abandoned automobiles, any single item over 200 pounds, and hazardous waste of any kind. Construction material uses the hauler's debris box service instead, and hazardous waste goes through the door-to-door collection or the district facility in Martinez. Loose and small items also have to be bagged, boxed or bundled before they go out.Official guidance
