Appliances and white goods

Accepted with preparation

Appliances are on the accepted list and a refrigerator or freezer is named directly in the bulk item definition, with the doors removed before set-out. Air conditioners, dehumidifiers, furnaces, compressors, generators and other large household appliances are also accepted as ordinary items.

City cost & eligibility
There is no separate appliance charge published because appliance collection is part of the weekly bulk service, and the city's only described waste charge is the annual recycling and yard waste line on the winter property tax statement. Confirm the current amount with the Division of Public Works on 248-871-2850.
When & how
Put the appliance out on the regular collection day, no earlier than 6:00 PM the day before and by 7:00 AM on the day.
Get it ready
Remove the doors from a refrigerator or freezer as the city requires, empty the unit and secure or remove shelving, and keep refrigerant appliances upright and intact for the collection crew.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

One weekly collection covers waste, recycling, compost and bulk

Farmington Hills collects mixed waste, recyclables, compost material and bulk items once a week from single family residences, and the city states that a bulk item does not need a call in advance. Bulk items are defined as a large piece of furniture, bed springs, a mattress or box spring, a refrigerator or freezer with the doors removed, a stove and other such items incidental to housekeeping. Cans, bags and bundles go to the curb no earlier than 6:00 PM the day before collection and all containers come off the curb within 12 hours of collection, with pickup between 7:00 AM and 6:00 PM and everything out by 7:00 AM because times vary from week to week. Mixed waste containers must be between 10 and 35 gallons with a combined weight of no more than 60 pounds, and plastic bags between 10 and 30 gallons at least 2 mil thick with no more than 40 pounds inside, while cardboard boxes are not acceptable containers.

City of Farmington Hills Division of Public Works, with Priority Waste and RRRASOC

Use the weekly curbside collection for waste, recycling and bulk items

A single family home, or a condominium that fits the city's criteria and opts in, with furniture, a mattress, an appliance or an ordinary household item to clear.

Cost & conditions
The city funds the solid waste portion from its General Fund and bills a fee for the recycling and yard waste component annually as a separate part of the winter property tax statement, and it publishes no amount and no separate bulky item price. Confirm the current charge and the address's eligibility with the Division of Public Works on 248-871-2850.
Arrange it
Set cans, bags, bundles and bulk items at the curb no earlier than 6:00 PM the day before the collection day and bring the containers in within 12 hours after collection, with everything out by 7:00 AM.

Building material, concrete, dirt, tires, pianos, riding lawnmowers, tree stumps and the rest of the not acceptable list will not be collected, and containers have to stay between 10 and 35 gallons with a combined weight under 60 pounds.

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Farmington Hills keeps almost everything inside its own weekly collection, so the first answer for a couch, a mattress, a refrigerator or a treadmill is the curb rather than a trip. The city contracts with Priority Waste for refuse, recycling, bulk item pickup and yard waste, bulk items are collected on the regular collection day with no call in advance, and the definition covers large furniture, bed springs, mattresses and box springs, a refrigerator or freezer with the doors removed, a stove and similar household items. Cans, bags and bundles go out no earlier than 6:00 PM the day before and everything has to be at the curb by 7:00 AM because collection runs from 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM and the timing varies week to week, and containers must be between 10 and 35 gallons with a combined weight under 60 pounds. Yard waste follows a season that runs from the week of April 6 to the week of December 14 in 2026 and takes brown paper bags, a 35 gallon can with a free sticker from City Hall or the DPW, or bundles of limbs up to six inches across, four feet long and 60 pounds, and Christmas trees ride the regular trash until the end of January. What the city will not take is where a trip becomes necessary: construction debris, building materials, concrete, dirt, bricks, sheet rock, siding, shingles, ceramic tile, masonry, tree stumps, pianos and tires are all refused, with tires pointed at a retailer and vehicle parts at a scrap metal dealer or salvage yard. Household chemicals and used computer equipment go to the annual co-sponsored hazardous materials drop-off day at Oakland Community College's Orchard Ridge Campus on 27055 Orchard Lake Road, and Farmington Hills residents can also use any RRRASOC region-wide event or the authority's ERG site at 13040 Merriman Road in Livonia, where RRRASOC residents may drop hazardous waste on non-event days without a fee. Recyclables can be dropped unsorted at the RRRASOC materials recovery facility at 20000 W. Eight Mile Road in Southfield or at the Novi site, both free and open to the public seven days a week during daylight hours, with foam, hazardous waste and electronics excluded from those sites, and free compost is available to residents at the Dog Park property on Shiawassee Road.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

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

How much does appliance removal cost in Farmington Hills?

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 Farmington Hills?

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.

What do I have to do to put out a refrigerator?

Remove the doors. The city's bulk item definition names a refrigerator or freezer with the doors removed and the accepted list repeats the instruction for appliances. The city also states that only refrigerators are recycled among those units, and that appliance collection happens on the regular weekly collection day with no call in advance.Official guidance

Who collects trash in Farmington Hills?

Priority Waste, under a long-term contract with the city for refuse, recycling, bulk item pickup and yard waste collection. The Division of Public Works administers the program, monitors day-to-day service and handles complaints and special requests on 248-871-2850. The solid waste portion is funded from the city's General Fund, while the recycling and yard waste component is billed annually as a separate part of the winter property tax statement.Official guidance

What counts as a bulk item?

A large piece of furniture, bed springs, a mattress or box spring, a refrigerator or freezer with the doors removed, a stove, and other such items incidental to housekeeping in a single family residence, as the city's ordinance defines the term. Bulk items go out on the regularly scheduled collection day and the city states that a phone call in advance is not required, while a mattress or box spring that is infested with bed bugs must be wrapped in plastic first.Official guidance
