Appliances without refrigerant

Accepted with preparation

Appliances are named alongside furniture as commonly acceptable heavy pickup items, so a washer, dryer, stove, dishwasher or water heater has a published curbside route. The exception is written into the same sentence: refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners and anything that ever held refrigerant are not part of heavy pickup.

City cost & eligibility
The city publishes no heavy pickup rate, so confirm the unit and any charge with Best Way at 765-649-7272. A unit that ever held refrigerant is not eligible for this route and goes to the Madison County Recycling Center instead.
When & how
Schedule the pickup with Best Way and use the day after the scheduled trash day, with the ordinary trash still going out in its cart on the usual day.
Get it ready
Empty the appliance first and remove loose parts, keep it out of the cart and out of the recycling cart, and keep the cart itself four feet from the curb with three feet of separation from the appliance and from obstacles. Confirm whether the unit ever held refrigerant, because that answer decides whether this route or the county drop-off applies.
City waste services page with the weekly Best Way trash collection and its contact number, the night before set out advice, the Christmas and New Year holiday exception with the Saturday catch up, the cart placement rules of four feet from the curb, three feet of separation and three feet from obstacles, the excess trash arrangement through Best Way, the heavy pickup for items too large for a cart on the day after trash day, the furniture and appliance list with the Freon exclusion, the refusal of remodeling debris and move-in or move-out trash from heavy pickup, the yard waste window from October 1 through December 15 with paper bags and the three inch, four foot and 35 pound bundle limits, the co-mingle every other week recycling list, and both drop-off contacts with their addresses and hoursCity FAQ stating that Anderson does not pick up trash or large items, that the annual City Wide Cleanup usually in the spring takes large items including electronics, tires, washers, dryers, refrigerators and freezers, that Best Way will take as many as five items a week except refrigerators, freezers, electronics and tires when the pickup is scheduled for the day after the trash day, and that recyclables go to the Madison County Recycling Center at Scatterfield Road and Mounds Road on the southeast corner

Refrigerators, freezers and air conditioners

Special rules apply

Refrigerant units are the one appliance group that is deliberately kept out of heavy pickup. The city states that refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners and any other item that ever contained refrigerant are excluded from heavy pickup, and the Madison County Recycling Center takes unusable appliances containing refrigerant from a short list of air conditioners, freezers, refrigerators and dehumidifiers for a published fee.

City cost & eligibility
$20 per unusable refrigerant appliance at the Madison County Recycling Center, which accepts air conditioners, freezers, refrigerators and dehumidifiers. Unusable appliances that still contain refrigerant. The city excludes refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners and anything that ever contained refrigerant from the heavy pickup route, so the county drop-off is the published local route for those units.
When & how
Take the unit to the Madison County Recycling Center at Scatterfield Road and Mounds Road on the southeast corner, open on Tuesdays from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., Wednesdays from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., Thursdays from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. and on the second and fourth Saturdays from 8 a.m. to 12 noon. The annual City Wide Cleanup, usually in the spring, also takes refrigerators and freezers as a drop-off.
Get it ready
Keep the unit out of the cart and off the heavy pickup pile, because heavy pickup refuses anything that ever held refrigerant. Leave the refrigerant sealed and tell the staff at the drop-off what the appliance is, and note that the center reserves the right to refuse any item for any reason.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

Place the cart four feet from the curb, three feet from everything else

The city asks for the cart within four feet of the curb with the wheels away from the street and the arrows on the lid pointing toward the street. The cart also needs three feet of separation from the heavy pickup pile and three feet of clearance from obstacles such as cars, mailboxes and trees, and it is the resident's job to keep it unblocked. Residents are encouraged to set material out the night before, because drivers start early to clear busy streets before the work day traffic begins.

The cart goes out one morning and heavy pickup the next

Anderson runs heavy pickup on the day after the regular trash day, so a household clearing a couch or an appliance sets material out on two consecutive mornings. The household trash goes in its cart on the usual day, and the heavy items go out beside it the following morning. The city caps heavy pickup at as many as five items a week and states that trash outside the carts is not collected unless it is heavy pickup material.

Four things stay out of the heavy pickup pile

The city names the exclusions directly. Refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners and any other item that ever contained refrigerant are not part of heavy pickup, and the city FAQ adds electronics and tires to the exclusions from the five item weekly pickup. Remodeling debris and excess move-in or move-out trash are outside the programme entirely, with residents arranging removal with Best Way Disposal themselves.

City of Anderson with Best Way Disposal, and the Madison County Recycling Center

Schedule heavy pickup with Best Way Disposal

A household with a couch, a table, a mattress, a washer or dryer, a stove or an exercise machine that will not fit in the cart.

Cost & conditions
The city publishes no heavy pickup rate and no weekly service rate on the pages read, so confirm the items and any charge with Best Way Disposal at 765-649-7272. The scheduled pickup itself runs on the day after the regular trash day.
Arrange it
Call Best Way Disposal at 765-649-7272 to book the pickup, put the everyday trash in its cart on the usual day, and put the heavy items out the following morning, which is the day after the trash day. The city caps the pickup at as many as five items a week.

Refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners and anything that ever contained refrigerant are excluded, and the city FAQ also excludes electronics and tires from the weekly five item pickup. Remodeling debris, move-in and move-out piles and excess trash outside the carts are outside the programme and need a separate arrangement with Best Way.

Drop refrigerant appliances, tires and recyclables at the county center

A household with a refrigerator, freezer, air conditioner or dehumidifier, a set of tires, or clean recyclables to drop off.

Cost & conditions
From $2 for the lowest published fee at the Madison County Recycling Center, for a car or light truck tire, with unusable refrigerant appliances at $20 each, semi and other large tires at $10 each, tractor tires at $15 each and tires on rims charged double. Unusable appliances containing refrigerant and tires free of dirt, mud and rocks; the recyclable materials the center lists, including cans, paper, glass, plastics 1 through 7 and flattened corrugated cardboard, carry no published charge.
Arrange it
Drive to the center at Scatterfield Road and Mounds Road on the southeast corner, open on Tuesdays from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., Wednesdays from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., Thursdays from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. and on the second and fourth Saturdays from 8 a.m. to 12 noon. Large loads are asked to call ahead.

The refrigerant appliance list is narrow, covering air conditioners, freezers, refrigerators and dehumidifiers, and the material has to be unusable. Tires must arrive free of dirt, mud and rocks, and the center states that it reserves the right to refuse any item for any reason.

Use the annual City Wide Cleanup for electronics and refrigerant units

A household with electronics, tires, a refrigerator or a freezer, which the weekly pickup will not take.

Cost & conditions
The city publishes the cleanup event and the material it takes but no date, location or fee on the pages read, so confirm the next event with the city. For a refrigerator or freezer, the county recycling center publishes a per unit fee and is open every week.
Arrange it
Watch for the City Wide Cleanup, which the city describes as usually taking place in the spring, and drop the material off at the event. Everything else in this category also has a standing weekly or drop-off route, so the cleanup is the fallback rather than the only option.

The event runs once a year, so anything that cannot wait a season has to go to the county recycling center for refrigerant units and tires, while electronics wait for the event because no weekly collection is published.

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Self haul in Anderson has two published destinations. The Madison County Recycling Center at Scatterfield Road and Mounds Road on the southeast corner takes clean and empty metal cans, newspaper, magazines, books, office paper, junk mail, paper food containers, paper ads, clear, brown and green glass, plastics numbered 1 through 7 without plastic bags, and flattened corrugated cardboard. It is also the local route for refrigerant appliances, limited to unusable air conditioners, freezers, refrigerators and dehumidifiers, and for tires in three size classes, with tires on rims charged double and large loads asked to call ahead. It opens on Tuesdays from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., Wednesdays from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., Thursdays from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. and on the second and fourth Saturdays from 8 a.m. to 12 noon, and it reserves the right to refuse any item. The second destination is the city's own Anderson Yard and Garden Recycling Center at 2000 West Eighth Street, which the Water Pollution Control Utility operates to turn brush, leaves and grass into compost and mulch. It is open on Wednesdays and Saturdays from 8 a.m. to 11 a.m. and from 12 p.m. to 2 p.m., takes leaves and grass at no charge with a nominal fee for woody debris, does not require tree limbs to be bundled, and refuses dirt, plastic bags, treated timbers, stumps, rocks, painted wood and trash. Electronics are the gap: the city routes them to the annual City Wide Cleanup drop-off rather than to either site, and the weekly heavy pickup excludes them.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

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

How much does appliance removal cost in Anderson?

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 Anderson?

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 get rid of a washer or dryer in Anderson?

Use the heavy pickup. The city names appliances as commonly acceptable heavy pickup items, the pickup handles anything too large for a residential cart, and it runs on the day after the trash day when it is arranged with Best Way Disposal at 765-649-7272. The city caps heavy pickup at as many as five items a week, and the only appliances excluded are refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners and anything that ever contained refrigerant.Official guidance

Where do refrigerators and freezers go in Anderson?

To the Madison County Recycling Center at Scatterfield Road and Mounds Road on the southeast corner. The city excludes refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners and anything that ever contained refrigerant from heavy pickup, and the county center takes unusable appliances containing refrigerant, meaning air conditioners, freezers, refrigerators and dehumidifiers, for a published per unit fee. The annual City Wide Cleanup in the spring also takes refrigerators and freezers.Official guidance

Who collects trash in Anderson?

Best Way Disposal collects under the city programme. The city states that Anderson does not pick up trash or large items itself, and that residents call Best Way at 765-649-7272 to find the collection day, order a container or arrange a heavy pickup. Best Way is at 1128 W. 66th St. in Anderson and opens on weekdays from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. and on Saturdays from 7 a.m. to 12 p.m.Official guidance

How many large items will Best Way take?

As many as five items a week, when the pickup is arranged for the day after the scheduled trash day. The city FAQ sets that limit and names the exclusions: refrigerators, freezers, electronics and tires do not go in the weekly pickup, and the waste services page adds air conditioners and anything that ever contained refrigerant to the appliance exclusion.Official guidance

Which appliances are excluded from heavy pickup?

Refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners and any other item that ever contained refrigerant. The city keeps those out of heavy pickup entirely, and the Madison County Recycling Center is the local route, taking unusable air conditioners, freezers, refrigerators and dehumidifiers that still contain refrigerant for a published per unit fee. The annual City Wide Cleanup in the spring also takes refrigerators and freezers.Official guidance

What does the City Wide Cleanup take?

The city describes an annual City Wide Cleanup, usually in the spring, that lets residents drop off large items such as electronics, tires, washers, dryers, refrigerators and freezers. It is the published route for electronics, because the weekly heavy pickup excludes them, and it is a second option for refrigerant units and tires alongside the county recycling center. No date, location or fee is published on the pages read, so the next event has to be confirmed with the city.Official guidance
