Appliances including refrigerators

Accepted with preparation

Appliances go to the curb as bulky items on the weekly collection, and any unit that holds Freon must have the Freon removed and tagged by a certified technician before it goes out.

City cost & eligibility
The city publishes no per-item bulky charge because the collection rides the weekly service billed on the utility account. The Freon work itself is a separate service: the county lists certified recovery companies and the city requires the tagging before collection. Confirm the collection with Republic Services at 800-433-1309 and the Freon work with the company you choose.
When & how
Set the unit next to the blue container on your regular collection day, out by 7 a.m. Call Republic Services at 800-433-1309 or the city at 440-204-2500 option 4 with any question about the load.
Get it ready
Remove the doors from a refrigerator or freezer, and have the Freon removed and tagged by a certified technician, which is the same requirement for any other Freon-bearing appliance such as an air conditioner or dehumidifier. Certified recovery options the county names include SA Recycling Elyria at 440-322-1333, Sugar Ridge Recycling at 440-322-0597 and Dye's Appliance in Lorain at 440-246-3937. The county centre itself accepts only microwaves.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

Bulky items go out with the regular weekly pickup

Furniture and appliances too large for the container go next to the blue trash container on your regular collection day, and bulk material is collected every week rather than by appointment. Put it out by 7 a.m. and no earlier than 7 p.m. the night before, keep it inside a curbside allowance of about five feet by five feet by five feet, and do not use large contractor bags because they are not collected.

Garbage, recycling, yard waste and bulk pickup information

Freon comes out before the appliance goes out

A refrigerator or freezer needs the doors removed and the Freon removed and tagged by a certified technician, and any other Freon-bearing appliance such as an air conditioner or dehumidifier needs the same treatment. The county lists certified recovery options including SA Recycling Elyria at 440-322-1333, Sugar Ridge Recycling at 440-322-0597 and Dye's Appliance in Lorain at 440-246-3937. The county collection center will not take appliances other than microwaves.

City of Lorain collection through Republic Services, with the Lorain County Solid Waste Management District

City weekly curbside bulky collection

Furniture, mattresses and box springs, appliances, televisions and other oversized household items from a city address.

Cost & conditions
No charge. No separate per-item charge, because the bulky collection rides the weekly service billed on the city utility account. Extra trash in contractor bags is not collected, and anything past the curbside allowance has to be handled another way.
Arrange it
Set the load next to the blue container on your regular collection day, out by 7 a.m. and no earlier than 7 p.m. the night before. Bulk material is collected every week, so nothing has to be booked.

One bulky load of about five feet by five feet by five feet, or up to six 35-gallon bags at 35 pounds each. Mattresses, box springs and upholstered furniture must be wrapped in plastic, Freon-bearing appliances must have the Freon removed and tagged by a certified technician, and electronics, household hazardous waste, construction material, scrap metal, tires and yard waste do not belong in the pile.

Check local arrangements

With a new purchase

Certified Freon recovery companies

Refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners, dehumidifiers and other Freon-bearing appliances that need the Freon removed and tagged before collection.

Cost & conditions
Each company quotes its own price for recovering the Freon and handling the appliance, and the district publishes no rate. Confirm the price and whether the company will take the unit after recovery.
Arrange it
The district names SA Recycling Elyria at 440-322-1333, Sugar Ridge Recycling at 440-322-0597 and Dye's Appliance in Lorain at 440-246-3937.

The city requires the Freon removed and tagged by a certified technician before an appliance is collected, so this step comes before the curbside set-out. The county collection center will not take the appliance itself.

Check local arrangements

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Most bulky material in Lorain does not need a trip or an appointment: furniture, mattresses and appliances go next to the blue container on the regular weekly pickup, provided the mattress and upholstered pieces are wrapped in plastic and any Freon-bearing appliance has had the Freon removed and tagged by a certified technician. Electronics, household hazardous waste, microwaves and passenger tires go to the Lorain County collection center at 540 S Abbe Road in Elyria, open Monday, Wednesday and Saturday, and passenger tires are also free at the city's New Tire Site on East 28th Street on Tuesdays. The center refuses furniture, mattresses, appliances other than microwaves, construction debris, scrap metal, tools, exercise equipment and yard waste, so project material and anything oversized goes to a private container or to the landfill the city names on Oberlin-Elyria Road in Oberlin.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

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

How much does appliance removal cost in Lorain?

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 Lorain?

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.

Can I put an old refrigerator at the curb in Lorain?

Yes, once the doors are removed and the Freon has been removed and tagged by a certified technician, which the city requires before collection. Set it next to the blue container on your regular pickup day. The county collection centre will not take it, so the curb is the local route.Official guidance

Who collects trash in Lorain and who do I call?

Call Republic Services on 800-433-1309 or the city on 440-204-2500 option 4.Official guidance
