Appliances and white goods

Special rules apply

The Larimer County Landfill recycles appliances as a special waste, charging one per-item fee for a unit without Freon and a higher one for a unit that contains it, on top of the load charge. Microwaves are not counted as appliances and go in as regular trash, and the Timberline Recycling Center refuses refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners and other Freon items.

City cost & eligibility
$20 per appliance without Freon at the Larimer County Landfill, with a higher published per-item fee for an appliance that contains Freon. Residential loads at the Larimer County Landfill. Accepted appliance types are furnaces, dishwashers, ovens and stoves, washers, dryers and water heaters.
When & how
Appliance recycling runs whenever the landfill gate is open, Monday through Saturday from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Reports on units already collected curbside follow the hauler's own schedule.
Get it ready
Empty the unit and keep the doors with it. Take a Freon unit to the landfill rather than the Timberline Recycling Center, which refuses Freon items and pressurized containers such as propane tanks.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

Cover and secure any load taken to a county site

Unsecured or uncovered loads are charged double at every Larimer County solid waste location, so tarp and tie down anything headed to the landfill or the recycling center. Both sites close for mud, wind and severe weather, and the county posts current restrictions on its solid waste home page.

Hazardous waste arrives boxed and upright, with no container over five gallons

The household hazardous waste facility takes up to thirty gallons per vehicle, measured by the size of the containers rather than how full they are, which is roughly four medium moving boxes. No single container may be larger than five gallons, up to ten fluorescent bulbs are taken per visit, and material has to arrive in non-leaking labeled containers, packaged upright in boxes rather than trash bags or trash cans.

Household hazardous waste program for county residents: hours, limits, accepted material and the Drop N Swap shop

The hazardous waste facility is closed to the public every Wednesday

Household hazardous waste is accepted Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, and the facility is closed to the public on Wednesday, when the site is reserved for business waste by appointment. Household material from Larimer County residents is free, and waste from another county has to go to that county's own program.

City hard-to-recycle drop-off at the Timberline Recycling Center

A household with electronics, batteries, paint, motor oil, clean aggregates or unpainted wood that does not belong in a curbside cart.

City of Fort Collins and Larimer County

Free household hazardous waste for Larimer County residents

A household with paint, lawn chemicals, automotive fluids, cleaners or batteries that cannot go into a curbside cart.

Cost & conditions
No charge. Typical household hazardous waste from Larimer County residents is free. Waste from businesses, landlords, churches, non-profits, hobbyists and other organizations has to go through the county business program.
Arrange it
Bring the material to the county hazardous waste facility during an open day, packaged upright in labeled boxes, and residents can also shop the Drop N Swap shelf for free paint and other items.

The facility is closed to the public every Wednesday, the limit is thirty gallons per vehicle, no container may exceed five gallons and only ten fluorescent bulbs are taken per visit.

With a new purchase

Opt out of the City contract and use your own licensed hauler

A household or small multi-family building that wants a different collector for carts, bulky items or service days than the contracted collector offers.

Cost & conditions
$11.41 per month opt-out fee for a household that keeps its own licensed hauler instead of the contracted collector, with a separate City administrative fee added to the bill. Single family homes and small multi-family buildings of seven units or fewer inside Fort Collins city limits; not paying the service or opt-out fee is a City Code violation.
Arrange it
Confirm the account with a hauler that holds a City hauler license, then file the opt-out with the City so the contract charge is replaced by the opt-out fee.

Every hauler collecting recycling, compost or waste in Fort Collins has to hold a City license and report data twice a year, so an unlicensed collector is not an option.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

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

How much does appliance removal cost in Fort Collins?

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 Fort Collins?

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 can be recycled at the Larimer County Landfill?

Furnaces, dishwashers, ovens and stoves, washers, dryers and water heaters are accepted as appliances. Microwaves are treated as regular trash rather than as an appliance or an electronic item, and a unit that contains Freon is charged a higher per-item fee than one that does not.Official guidance

Who collects trash in Fort Collins?

Fort Collins contracts with Republic Services to collect curbside trash, recycling and seasonal yard trimmings from single family homes and small multi-family buildings of seven units or fewer. A household can opt out and use a different hauler that holds a City license, and it pays an opt-out fee to the City instead of the contract charge.Official guidance

Is household hazardous waste free in Larimer County?

Yes for Larimer County residents. Typical household hazardous waste such as paint, lawn chemicals, automotive fluids, cleaners and batteries is accepted at no charge at the facility on South Taft Hill Road, with a thirty gallon per vehicle limit and no container larger than five gallons. Waste from another county has to go to that county's own program.Official guidance

Can electronics go in the trash in Colorado?

No. Throwing electronic items such as televisions, computers and cell phones in the trash is illegal in Colorado because of the toxic parts inside them. The Larimer County Landfill recycles electronics by weight, and the Timberline Recycling Center takes them for a per-item fee added to its entry fee.Official guidance
