Appliances and white goods

Accepted with preparation

Appliances, which the village calls white goods, are collected at no additional charge, but not on the ordinary truck. The village states that an appliance requires a separate pickup that takes place on Wednesdays, and that the pickup has to be arranged with Groot in advance.

City cost & eligibility
No charge. The village states that appliance pickup is available at no additional charge to residents who schedule it with Groot in advance, under the same residential service covered by the monthly rate on the water bill.
When & how
Call Groot at 847-734-6400 in advance and the appliance is collected on the Wednesday pickup rather than on the regular route. The regular collection day is separate, so a refrigerator put out on the ordinary service day is not the arrangement the village publishes.
Get it ready
Empty the appliance and remove food, water and loose parts before it goes out. Keep it out of the refuse toter, which is limited to 32 gallon bags and 50 pounds, and keep it out of the recycling toter. Confirm with Groot when booking whether the unit still holds refrigerant and whether anything has to be removed first.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

Monday north of the tollway, Wednesday south of it

The village splits collection by the Jane Addams Memorial Tollway. Residences north of it are serviced on Mondays, and residences south of it, including those west of Bartlett Road, are serviced on Wednesdays. Because routes can vary weekly and holidays shift the schedule, the village publishes the service area map and delays collection by one day for the remainder of a holiday week.

Schedule the special pickups with Groot before the item goes out

Three special services have to be arranged in advance. Appliance or white goods pickup is scheduled with Groot and runs on Wednesdays at no additional charge. An oversized pickup for a large item or a load over one cubic yard is scheduled with Groot for an estimate and billed by the cubic yard. Electronics pickups are scheduled at least 24 hours ahead, and Groot takes two items a week at no cost. Nothing is left at the curb before the pickup is arranged.

Village of Hoffman Estates with Groot Industries

Schedule the appliance, electronics and oversized pickups with Groot

A residence with an appliance, two electronic items, a couch, an exercise machine or a load over one cubic yard.

Cost & conditions
Appliance pickup is published at no additional charge when scheduled in advance and runs on Wednesdays, and two electronic items a week are collected at no cost when the pickup is arranged at least 24 hours ahead. The oversized pickup for a large item or a load over one cubic yard is priced by Groot as an estimate and billed by the cubic yard, so confirm the piece and the price at 847-734-6400.
Arrange it
Call Groot at 847-734-6400, and for electronics the line is 800.244.1977. Schedule appliance pickup in advance for the Wednesday run, schedule the electronics pickup at least 24 hours ahead, and arrange the oversized pickup before the load goes out.

Every special pickup has to be arranged before the item is set at the curb, and the oversized rate depends on the cubic yardage of the load rather than a flat item price. A tube television weighing more than 50 pounds carries a charge on the electronics pickup rather than the two free item allowance.

Open the Hoffman Estates special garbage services page

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Hoffman Estates is a franchised collection village rather than a drop-off city, so self haul means the special programmes rather than a municipal transfer station. The village points household hazardous waste to the Naperville facility at 156 Fort Hill Drive, next to the Naperville Public Works Service Center, open on Saturdays and Sundays from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. with only household waste allowed and no business or medical waste, and the village recommends packaging items safely and carrying them in the trunk, with questions going to 630-420-6095. Electronics are the other self haul route: the seasonal drop-off at Village Hall on 1900 Hassell Road runs on Mondays from 10 a.m. to noon on its 2026 dates from April 6 through November 16, free for residents of SWANCC communities with proof of residency, and the agency also runs a weekly collection at the Glenview Transfer Station on 3 Providence Way in Des Plaines on Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. Village Hall also takes small electronics, printer ink and toner cartridges, CFL and fluorescent light bulbs handed to staff, mercury thermometers and wall thermostats in a sealed bag, and batteries with the terminals taped, year round from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. For bulk material the franchise points the other way: all permanent and temporary roll-off dumpsters have to come through Groot, and a container supplied by anyone else can bring a village citation, so a self hauled remodel load is not the route the village publishes.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

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

How much does appliance removal cost in Hoffman Estates?

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 Hoffman Estates?

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.

How do I schedule an appliance pickup in Hoffman Estates?

Call Groot at 847-734-6400 in advance. The village states that appliances, also called white goods, require a separate pickup from the regularly scheduled service, that it takes place on Wednesdays, and that there is no additional charge for it. The pickup has to be arranged before the appliance goes out.Official guidance

Who collects garbage in Hoffman Estates?

Groot Industries collects under a village franchise. The village states that its residential agreement with Groot for solid waste and recycling runs through April 30, 2031, and that the same franchise requires all roll-off dumpsters and all commercial hauling to go through Groot. Groot handles service questions and special pickups at 847-734-6400, while the village handles regular billing and service changes at 847-843-4824.Official guidance

How is a large item pickup billed?

By the cubic yard. The village routes oversized or overweight items and any large amount of refuse or debris exceeding one cubic yard through Groot, which gives an estimate and bills by the cubic yard, and the village names spring cleanup and move-in or move-out rubbish as typical loads. Appliance pickup is different and is published at no additional charge when it is scheduled in advance for the Wednesday run.Official guidance
