Appliances, white goods and scrap metal

Accepted with preparation

Stoves, washers, dryers, water tanks and lawn mowers go out on the city bulk route as white goods, while scrap metal and bicycles are collected at no charge.

City cost & eligibility
$4 per white goods item such as a stove, washer, dryer, water tank or lawn mower, with scrap metal and bicycles collected at no charge and a hauling fee for each haul of up to two cubic yards. City of Troy residential property with a bulk appointment booked through the Public Works dispatcher. Commercial rental, tax exempt and not-for-profit properties are not eligible.
When & how
Call the dispatcher at 518-270-4579 and confirm the appliance count, because two appliances side by side fit inside one haul while a larger pile is billed as more than one.
Get it ready
Empty the unit, take out any fuel and oil from a mower, and keep the appliance out of the weekly garbage container. Drain and remove fuel from a gasoline mower before the crew arrives, and keep refrigerant appliances separate so they are priced on the right line.

Refrigerators, freezers and air conditioners

Accepted with preparation

Cooling appliances are priced on their own line as bulk metal with Freon, and the same units are also free at the city's annual electronics and appliance event.

City cost & eligibility
$10 per refrigerator, freezer, dehumidifier or air conditioner on the bulk metal with Freon line, plus a hauling fee for each haul of up to two cubic yards; the same units are accepted at no charge at the annual city electronics event. City of Troy residential property with a bulk appointment booked through the Public Works dispatcher, or a household registered for the annual city electronics recycling event.
When & how
Book the bulk pickup with the dispatcher at 518-270-4579, or wait for the annual electronics event, which runs once a year with registration required and a date the city has not yet posted.
Get it ready
Empty and defrost the unit and secure the doors. The city prices a refrigerator, freezer, dehumidifier or air conditioner on the Freon line, so describe the unit when you call rather than letting it be billed as ordinary white goods.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

Nothing bulky goes out without a confirmed appointment

Every bulk item has to be scheduled with the Public Works dispatcher at 518-270-4579 or through the city's online request form, which requires a phone number. If a pile appears at the curb or in the alley without a request, the property owner receives a removal charge and a penalty under the city littering code.

Bulk trash collection rules, appointment process and refused items

Set out the night before the confirmed date, not earlier

Items may not be placed at the curb until after 6 p.m. the night before the confirmed pickup date, and household garbage follows a similar window, out after 7 p.m. the night before or before 6 a.m. on the collection day. Garbage has to be in the city-provided water-tight container rather than in a bag, and recyclables go out in the city blue container in the same window.

Every item is priced, and every haul adds a fee

The bill charges each individual item on the published pricing sheet and adds a hauling fee for every haul removed, where one haul is up to two cubic yards no matter the dimensions. Two appliances side by side count as one haul, so grouping the pieces keeps the hauling part of the bill down. Bills go to the property owner and are due 30 days from the bill date, and billing questions go to the Office of General Services at 518-279-7141.

Keep hazardous waste, dirt and project material off the curb

Household hazardous waste, batteries, used oil and filters, industrial waste, medical waste, sludge and fuel ashes are refused on the bulk route. Dirt, rocks, bricks, cinder blocks, sand and concrete are refused as well, and construction or demolition material set out for pickup is treated as illegal disposal. Paint can go to a household hazardous waste event or to a PaintCare retail location, and a screen belongs with the electronics programme rather than in the garbage.

Use a permitted, accessible outdoor spot. Arrange the move out of your home, keep shared access clear and follow your confirmation’s readiness instructions. Check with your building about access or staging limits before booking.

Free bulk trash drop-off at the Alamo

A Troy household that would rather drive its bulky items to a city site than wait for an appointment.

Cost & conditions
No charge. City of Troy residents only, with proof of residency required at the gate on published drop-off days.
Arrange it
Watch the city's Alamo page for the next posted drop-off day, then drive the load to the Troy Resource Management Facility at 3000 Main Street. Past editions of the event ran from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. and were weather dependent, and the city had not posted the next date at the checked date, so call the dispatcher at 518-270-4579 to confirm before loading.

Published days only, and the site refuses hazardous waste, electronics and construction materials. Trailer loads are not allowed, and the programme is open to City of Troy residents only.

Annual city electronics recycling event

A Troy household with televisions, computers, consoles, cords, small appliances or a cooling appliance to recycle.

Cost & conditions
No charge. Free for Troy households that register in advance for the city's annual electronics recycling event. Registration is required and a time slot is sent before the event.
Arrange it
Register through the city's electronics page when the next date is posted, then attend the event at the published location. The event is usually held once a year, typically in the fall, and the next date was listed as to be announced at the checked date.

One event a year, registration required, and the city had not posted the date at the checked date. Tires are handled at the same event for a published fee rather than free, and household hazardous waste is a separate programme run with Rensselaer County and the Town of Bethlehem.

Register when the date is posted

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Troy is a curbside city with an appointment system rather than a standing public dump. Garbage and single stream recycling are collected weekly in the city's own containers, and anything oversized needs a call to the Public Works dispatcher at 518-270-4579 and a confirmed date before it goes out. The bill prices every item separately and adds a hauling fee for each haul of up to two cubic yards, so grouping pieces into one haul is the way to keep the charge down. A household that would rather drive the load can use the free bulk drop-off at the Troy Resource Management Facility on 3000 Main Street, but only on a published day, only with proof of residency and never with hazardous waste, electronics, construction material or a trailer. Electronics wait for the city's annual registered collection, paint can go to a PaintCare retail location at any time, and household chemicals go to the events the city runs with Rensselaer County.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

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

How much does appliance removal cost in Troy NY?

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 Troy NY?

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 stove in Troy?

Book a bulk pickup with the Public Works dispatcher at 518-270-4579. Stoves, washers, dryers, water tanks and lawn mowers are priced on the white goods line, while scrap metal and bicycles are collected at no charge, and a hauling fee applies to each haul of up to two cubic yards.Official guidance

Can Troy take a refrigerator or air conditioner?

Yes, on two routes. The city prices a refrigerator, freezer, dehumidifier or air conditioner on the bulk metal with Freon line when it is collected by appointment with the Public Works dispatcher, and the same units are accepted at no charge at the city's annual electronics recycling event, which requires registration. A hauling fee applies to the bulk pickup.Official guidance

Who collects trash and recycling in Troy?

The Sanitation division of the city Department of Public Works does. It collects garbage and recyclables weekly from about 17,000 residential households and roughly 3,000 business properties, and it also runs the bulk trash, yard waste and recycling programmes. Collection day is set by address, so use the city route maps or call the Public Works dispatcher at 518-270-4579.Official guidance

How does bulk trash pickup work in Troy?

A bulk pickup has to be scheduled in advance with the Public Works dispatcher at 518-270-4579 or through the city's online request, and nothing may be set out until after 6 p.m. the night before the confirmed date. Furniture, appliances, carpets, televisions and mattresses are the oversized items the city names. Each item is billed on the published pricing sheet and a hauling fee is added for every haul of up to two cubic yards.Official guidance
