Appliances count as a resident's own bulky waste at the transfer facility, where the city allows tenants in multi-family homes to dump their own furniture, bedding and appliances inside the free bulky allowance.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Covered by the two free bulky waste dumps each household is allowed per year, pickup truck size loads, with additional dumps charged $28.75 for the first 500 pounds and $0.0575 per pound after that.
When & how
Take the appliance to the Mark Lane transfer facility, 220 Mark Lane, on a day the facility is open, with the vehicle on the scale by 2:30 pm.
Get it ready
Empty the unit and secure the doors, and note that the facility refuses propane tanks and car batteries and takes only propane cylinders up to 20 pounds as scrap metal when they are brought to staff attention.
A cooling appliance is not named on the transfer facility's accepted list, which names couches, mattresses, large furniture, residential construction material, carpet and specific metals, so the route and the refrigerant handling have to be confirmed.
City cost & eligibility
No published rate covers a refrigerator, freezer or air conditioner. The facility refuses propane tanks and car batteries and publishes no cooling appliance line, so confirm with the Bureau of Refuse at (203) 574-6857 whether the unit counts within the bulky allowance, what it costs, and whether the refrigerant has to be handled first.
When & how
Call the Bureau of Refuse at (203) 574-6857 before the unit is loaded, and do not bring it to the facility expecting it to be taken as ordinary bulky waste.
Get it ready
Empty the unit and strap or tape the doors closed, keep it upright where the vehicle allows, and never put a cooling appliance in a curbside recycling cart.
The Mark Lane transfer facility takes loads Tuesday through Saturday from 7 am with the vehicle on the scale by 2:30 pm from March 1 to November 30, and Monday through Friday on the same hours from December 1 through February. Each household has two free bulky waste dumps and four free yard waste dumps a year as pickup truck size loads, extra weight is charged at the published rate, and yard waste has to arrive in compostable bags with brush cut and tied under four inches in diameter and no longer than six feet. Household trash, paint, hazardous waste, concrete, stone, brick, propane tanks and car batteries are refused.
The bulky and yard waste allowances belong to the household, not to each person living there, and a tenant in a multi-family home may only dump their own property such as furniture, bedding and appliances, never the landlord's building material or yard waste. A landlord who lives in the multi-family home with a Waterbury driver's licence gets two free dumps for that one building. Replacement trash bins are sold by the city and can be ordered at (203) 756-7365 or bought at the Mark Lane facility.
Paint, chemicals and other household hazardous material never go in a cart or a bulky load. The Naugatuck Valley Council of Governments runs three collections a year for fifteen towns including Waterbury, rain or shine, free to residents of participating municipalities, with proof of residency required. Containers are not returned, there is a 50 pound cap per resident unless arrangements are made in advance by email to hhw@nvcogct.gov before the Monday prior to the collection, and the next published event is September 26 from 9 am to 2 pm at Ansonia Public Works, 1 North Division Street in Ansonia.
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.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Appliance removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Waterbury.
How much does appliance removal cost in Waterbury?+
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 Waterbury?+
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 I take an appliance to the Waterbury transfer facility?+
Yes. The facility treats a resident's own appliances as bulky waste, and the city states that tenants in multi-family homes may dump their own furniture, bedding and appliances. The first two bulky waste dumps each year are free, pickup truck size loads, and additional dumps are charged by weight. Propane tanks and car batteries are refused, and propane cylinders up to 20 pounds are taken as scrap metal when you bring them to a staff member's attention.Official guidance
Will Waterbury take a refrigerator at the transfer facility?+
The facility does not name refrigerators on its accepted list and it refuses propane tanks and car batteries, so call the Bureau of Refuse at (203) 574-6857 before hauling one. Ask whether the unit fits the household's bulky waste allowance, what the charge is, and whether the refrigerant has to be removed or documented before it is accepted.Official guidance
Who collects trash in Waterbury?+
The City of Waterbury collects it. The Bureau of Refuse handles curbside collection of trash and recycling and runs the Mark Lane transfer facility and the closed landfill, and the Supervisor of Refuse is at 526 Huntingdon Avenue, reachable at (203) 574-6857 during office hours from 5 a.m. to 3 p.m., with the recycling coordinator at (203) 574-6851. A replacement trash bin is sold by the city and can be ordered at (203) 756-7365 or bought at the Mark Lane facility.Official guidance
Where do Waterbury paint and chemicals go?+
To one of the three Naugatuck Valley Council of Governments household hazardous waste collections held each year, rain or shine, which serve fifteen towns including Waterbury. They are free to residents of participating municipalities with proof of residency, containers are not returned, and there is a 50 pound cap per resident unless you email hhw@nvcogct.gov before the Monday preceding the collection. Paint can also go to a PaintCare drop-off, and the transfer facility refuses both paint and hazardous waste.Official guidance
What does Waterbury charge for extra bulky waste?+
Nothing for the first two bulky waste dumps each household gets each year, which are pickup truck size loads. Beyond that the facility charges each extra load by weight on its published scale, and mattresses and box springs are charged per piece on top of that. Yard waste has its own four free dumps a year and must arrive in compostable bags with brush cut and tied.Official guidance
