Appliances and white goods

Accepted with preparation

Refrigerators, stoves, water heaters and microwaves are collected on the regular collection day, one appliance a week, with two pink stickers, but the household has to call the hauler at least 48 hours ahead because appliances cannot go to a landfill and some units need extra equipment or labour.

City cost & eligibility
$8 for for the two pink refuse stickers that an appliance requires at 4.00 each, with one appliance collected each week after the hauler is notified. Oak Park residential buildings of five or fewer units served by the hauler, with a request made at least 48 hours before the collection day.
When & how
Call 844.633.3577 or email service@LRSrecycles.com at least 48 hours before the collection day, Monday to Friday 8AM to 6PM excluding holidays, and set the unit out by 7 a.m. on the confirmed day.
Get it ready
Empty and defrost the unit, secure the doors, attach both stickers, and mention the appliance type when booking, because some appliances may need additional equipment or labour that the hauler arranges.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

One sticker up to 30 gallons, two above it

The Village's hauler requires one pink refuse sticker for each bag or rigid container of 30 gallons or less and two pink stickers for any item over 30 gallons, which is why a bulk item costs two stickers. Stickers are sold for 4.00 each at locations including Village Hall at 123 Madison Street, and one bulk item is collected each week with a general guideline of 50 pounds.

Some items need preparation before they leave the curb

A mattress or box spring has to be inside a plastic cover that is taped securely shut, a carpeting roll takes two stickers and cannot weigh more than 50 pounds or run longer than four feet, and an appliance collection has to be requested at least 48 hours ahead because appliances cannot go to a landfill.

What stops the truck entirely

Car parts, dirt and soil, concrete, tires, motor oil, pesticides, acid, gasoline, antifreeze, pool chemicals, automotive batteries, liquid paint and electronics such as computers, monitors and televisions are all prohibited in the trash, and the Village warns that collection will not be made if they are mixed into a load. Those materials move to the at-home electronics and household hazardous waste collection the Village offers to residents of single-family homes and buildings of five or fewer units.

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Oak Park does not run a drop-off yard for household material, so everything moves through the Village's single hauler, Lakeshore Recycling Systems, at 844.633.3577. Trash, recycling and bulk go out weekly on the same collection day for residential buildings of five or fewer units, with the load at the curb by 7 a.m. and containers back in by 10 p.m., and the Village's prohibited list is strict: car parts, dirt and soil, concrete, tires, motor oil, pesticides, acid, gasoline, antifreeze, pool chemicals, automotive batteries, liquid paint and electronics such as computers, monitors and televisions all stop the collection when they are mixed in. Bulk material is priced with pink refuse stickers at 4.00 each, one sticker for a bag or rigid container up to 30 gallons and two for anything larger, so a couch, a mattress, a bed frame or a carpet roll costs two stickers, and the mattress also has to be inside a taped plastic cover. One bulk item and one appliance are collected each week, with the appliance needing a call at least 48 hours ahead because appliances cannot be landfilled. Electronics and household chemicals, including paint products, automotive fluids, garden chemicals and cleaners, move through the at-home collection the Village offers to single-family homes and small multi-family buildings, and anything needing special equipment, such as construction debris, a piano or a sofa sleeper, is quoted as a special refuse collection instead of taking stickers. Yard waste goes in paper bags or rigid containers of up to 32 gallons with free labels from the Public Works Center at 201 South Blvd. Village garbage and yard waste page with the Lakeshore Recycling Systems franchise, the two sticker bulk rule and weekly limit, the 50 pound guideline, the 4.00 sticker price and sellers, the bulk example list, the mattress cover, carpeting and appliance rules, the prohibited items list, the at-home electronics and hazardous waste collection, the set out times, the yard waste container rules, the smaller cart pilot rates and the holiday scheduleHauler Oak Park page with the sticker thresholds at 30 gallons, the appliance collection request window of 48 hours and the one appliance per week rule with two stickers, the special refuse collection for pianos, sofa sleepers, entertainment centres and construction debris with an estimate, and the dumpster rental option

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

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

How much does appliance removal cost in Oak Park?

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 Oak Park?

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 does Oak Park handle a refrigerator or a stove?

Appliance collection happens on the regularly scheduled collection day with two pink refuse stickers at 4.00 each, but only after calling the hauler at least 48 hours ahead, because appliances cannot go to a landfill and need special disposal. LRS collects one appliance a week, and its request line is open Monday to Friday 8AM to 6PM excluding observed holidays.Official guidance

The contact line is 844.633.3577 or service@LRSrecycles.com, and larger multifamily buildings arrange their own service.Official guidance

What do I do with an appliance in Oak Park?

Call the hauler at least 48 hours before your collection day, then set the appliance out with two pink refuse stickers attached, because appliances such as refrigerators, stoves, water heaters and microwaves cannot go to a landfill and need special disposal. One appliance is collected per week, the request line runs Monday to Friday 8AM to 6PM excluding observed holidays, and some units need extra equipment or labour.Official guidance
