Appliances and white goods

Special rules apply

The county landfill accepts most non-hazardous material and does not list appliances among its refusals, while the city publishes no appliance pickup, so the route is the landfill with a confirmation on the price.

City cost & eligibility
The county publishes no appliance rate and the city publishes no appliance pickup, so confirm the load price at the scale house, 229-302-3226, and ask how a unit that holds refrigerant is handled, because the landfill refuses hazardous material and does not name cooling appliances on its accepted list.
When & how
Take the appliance to the Dougherty County landfill during gate hours, or add it to a rented roll-off container arranged at (229) 302-1800.
Get it ready
Empty the unit and secure the doors, cover the load for transport, and keep batteries out of the load, because the county refuses batteries along with herbicides, pesticides, gasoline, oils and tires with rims.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

Cover every landfill load

All loads reaching the Dougherty County landfill must be fully covered or secured, and commercial loads must be tarped entering and leaving. The gate is open Monday to Friday 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday 7:30 a.m. to 12 p.m., closes fifteen minutes early so the site can shut down safely, and closes for an hour one day a month for a safety meeting. Herbicides, pesticides, gasoline, oils, batteries and tires with rims are refused, hazardous and biomedical waste is refused, restricted non-hazardous waste needs written approval, and children must stay in vehicles with no scavenging.

Handle paint and batteries before the load

Liquid paint does not go into a landfill load. The county advises buying only what is needed, using or donating leftovers, and either drying latex paint out so the solid residue can go in the roll-out cart, or recycling a steel can that is empty, dry and free of paint residue at Albany Recycling Services, 1301 East Gordon Avenue. Batteries are refused at the landfill, so household and rechargeable batteries go to the Keep Albany-Dougherty Beautiful recycling drop-offs instead.

City of Albany Solid Waste Division and Dougherty County Solid Waste Management

Dougherty County landfill

A household or business with furniture, mattresses, appliances, renovation debris or other non-hazardous material to drop off.

Cost & conditions
The county publishes no residential gate rate, so the price of a load is set at the scale house, 229-302-3226, where the customer weighs in and must weigh out.
Arrange it
Drive to the Dougherty County landfill Monday to Friday 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. or Saturday 7:30 a.m. to 12 p.m., with the gates closing fifteen minutes early and a monthly one hour safety meeting closure.

Herbicides, pesticides, gasoline, oils, batteries and tires with rims are refused, along with hazardous and biomedical waste, restricted non-hazardous waste needs written approval, every load must be covered or secured, and scavenging is not allowed.

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Self-haul in Albany means the Dougherty County landfill for anything non-hazardous and the Keep Albany-Dougherty Beautiful drop-offs for recyclables and electronics. The landfill is open Monday to Friday 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday 7:30 a.m. to 12 p.m., closes its gates fifteen minutes early and for an hour one day a month for a safety meeting, requires every load to be covered or secured and commercial loads to be tarped, takes most non-hazardous material, and refuses herbicides, pesticides, gasoline, oils, batteries, tires with rims, hazardous and biomedical waste, with restricted non-hazardous waste needing written approval and a scaled in and out visit. The West Albany site at 2521 Meredyth Drive and the Downtown site behind the Civic Center take separated recyclables and batteries on weekdays and Saturdays, and electronics go to the KADB office or its September event. City roll-off containers, priced on the published schedule, handle a load too big for a truck.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

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

How much does appliance removal cost in Albany?

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 Albany?

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 Dougherty County landfill?

The landfill accepts most non-hazardous material and lists herbicides, pesticides, gasoline, oils, batteries and tires with rims as its refusals, so an appliance is welcome there and the price is set at the gate. Call the scale house at 229-302-3226 to confirm the load price and to ask how a unit with refrigerant is handled. The city does not collect appliances in its cart.Official guidance

Who collects trash in Albany?

The City of Albany does it through the Solid Waste Division at 1900 N. Monroe St., reachable at (229) 302-1800. Household garbage is collected in city-issued carts and yard debris twice a month, additional containers are arranged for a fee, and the city also rents roll-off containers for larger loads. The county runs the landfill and the Keep Albany-Dougherty Beautiful recycling drop-offs, which is where recyclables and electronics go.Official guidance

Where do Albany paint, oil and batteries go?

Batteries never go to the landfill, which refuses them along with herbicides, pesticides, gasoline and oils, so household and rechargeable batteries go to the Keep Albany-Dougherty Beautiful drop-offs at 2521 Meredyth Drive or behind the James H. Gray, Sr. Civic Center. Paint is a household problem rather than a site: buy only what you need, use or donate the rest, dry latex paint out so the solid residue can go in the roll-out cart, and recycle an empty dry steel can at Albany Recycling Services, 1301 East Gordon Avenue.Official guidance

What does the city charge for containers and collection?

Residential household garbage collection is billed monthly under a schedule the city adjusts each July, and additional containers are arranged with the Solid Waste Division at (229) 302-1800. Roll-off containers carry a one time set-out charge, a pull charge, a per ton tipping charge and a daily rental charge on the published fee schedule, and the same schedule prices passenger, truck and farm tractor tires separately.Official guidance
