Appliances are too large for the cart, and the city names refrigerators as an example of the unwanted items it takes through its bulk option. ReWorks refuses Freon containing appliances at its hazardous waste collection, so the curbside route is the local one.
City cost & eligibility
The city publishes no separate fee for an appliance on the normal collection day, and ReWorks refuses Freon containing appliances such as refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners and dehumidifiers at its hazardous waste collection. Confirm the unit with the 3-1-1 Call Center at 330-375-2311 before it goes out.
When & how
Set the appliance out on the normal collection day, three feet apart from the city cart and at the curb by 4:30 a.m. If it is part of a large cleanout, book a Special Bulk Volume pickup instead.
Get it ready
Empty and defrost the unit, keep the doors intact or secured the way the crew can handle it, and keep the appliance out of the trash and recycling carts. Do not take a refrigerator, freezer, air conditioner or dehumidifier to the ReWorks hazardous waste collection, because Freon containing appliances are refused there.
Akron picks up furniture, dressers, mattresses, couches, televisions, bookcases, doors, bicycles, windows and tied bundles such as carpet, wood, brush, branches and fencing on the normal weekly collection day, with no appointment. Put the items at the curb by 4:30 a.m., at least three feet apart from the city cart and from anything else, and keep them out of the street and off the sidewalk.
A large amount of bags, boxes or trash after cleaning out a house, basement or garage, or after moving out, needs a Special Bulk Volume pickup. Each home is allowed three a year, the pickup has to be scheduled at least one working day before the collection day through 3-1-1 or 330-375-2311, and nothing should go to the curb before 4:30 p.m. the day before.
ReWorks takes household hazardous waste at 1201 Graham Road in Stow on Thursdays from 2 to 7 p.m. during its season, and no container may be larger than five gallons. Only material generated at your own Summit County home is accepted, and nothing from a business, school, non-profit or government source qualifies. Asbestos, embedded batteries, compact fluorescent bulbs, fluorescent tubes and mercury items each have their own packing instructions, and latex paint, electronics, Freon containing appliances, scrap tires and construction debris are refused.
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.

Weekly curbside large item collection
Furniture, mattresses, couches, televisions, bookcases, doors, bicycles, windows and tied bundles of carpet, wood, brush, branches or fencing from a one, two or three family home in Akron.
Cost & conditions
The city publishes no separate fee for large items set out on the normal collection day, and no appointment is needed. Confirm anything unusual with the 3-1-1 Call Center at 330-375-2311.
Arrange it
Set the items out on the household's normal weekly collection day, at the curb by 4:30 a.m. and at least three feet from the city cart, which has to be out too because the city empties only its own carts.
Hazardous waste, roofing material, concrete, plaster, dirt, sand, gravel, bricks, drywall and demolition or construction material are not permitted in the carts and are not part of this route. A large volume of bags or boxes rather than individual items needs a Special Bulk Volume pickup.

Special Bulk Volume pickup
A household clearing out a house, basement, garage or apartment with a large amount of bags, boxes or trash that will not fit in the cart.
Cost & conditions
The city publishes no separate fee for a Special Bulk Volume pickup and allows three per home each year. Confirm the volume and timing with the 3-1-1 Call Center at 330-375-2311.
Arrange it
Schedule at least one working day before the collection day through 3-1-1 from a landline or 330-375-2311 from a cell phone, then put the material at the curb no earlier than 4:30 p.m. the day before the pickup.
Three pickups per home per year, and the material still cannot include hazardous waste, roofing material, concrete, plaster, dirt, sand, gravel, bricks, drywall or demolition and construction debris.
Most of Akron's bulky material never leaves the neighbourhood: furniture, mattresses, couches, televisions, bookcases, doors, bicycles, windows and tied bundles go out on the normal weekly collection day three feet from the city cart, and a whole cleanout uses one of three Special Bulk Volume pickups a year booked a working day ahead. What has to be hauled is the material the city and ReWorks both refuse at the curb: household chemicals, which go to the seasonal ReWorks collection at 1201 Graham Road in Stow on Thursdays during its season, and scrap tires, which ReWorks says have no free disposal option and which go to a tire vendor. Electronics are refused at the hazardous waste collection and move through a ReWorks Recycling Days event or a private recycler.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Appliance removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Akron.
How much does appliance removal cost in Akron?+
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 Akron?+
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.
Where can a refrigerator go in Akron?+
The city names refrigerators as an example of the large unwanted items it collects through its bulk option, so the unit goes out on the normal weekly collection day, three feet from the city cart. ReWorks refuses Freon containing appliances such as refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners and dehumidifiers at its household hazardous waste collection, so the city route is the one to use.Official guidance
Do large items need an appointment in Akron?+
No. The city states that furniture, dressers, mattresses, couches, televisions, bookcases, doors, bicycles, windows and tied bundles of carpet, wood, brush, branches and fencing are collected weekly when they are set out on the normal collection day, three feet from the city cart. Only a large volume of bags, boxes or trash from a cleanout needs a booked Special Bulk Volume pickup, and each home gets three of those a year.Official guidance
