Metal items and the larger household pieces have to be scheduled with Public Works before they go to the curb, and the price depends on the item.
City cost & eligibility
The city prices bulky collection by item: furniture pieces such as love seats, couches, sectionals, kitchen tables and up to six chairs are $10 each, refrigerators, freezers, mattresses and box springs are $16 each, and stoves, washers, dryers, water coolers, metal and televisions are listed at no charge, with each air conditioner past the yearly limit at $16. Confirm your specific load on 401-728-0500 ext. 233.
When & how
Call Public Works on 401-728-0500 ext. 233 and book the collection before the item goes outside. Furniture is limited to three pieces a week.
Get it ready
Describe each piece when you call, keep the load inside the three-piece weekly limit, and keep the items clear of the barrels and the street. Construction material, propane tanks and automobile parts never go out with a scheduled bulky pickup.
Stoves, washers, dryers, water coolers and air conditioners are collected on the scheduled route at no charge, with air conditioners limited to two a year before a per-unit charge applies.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Pawtucket properties served by city collection, for stoves, washers, dryers, water coolers and air conditioners, with the unit scheduled on 401-728-0500 ext. 233 before it goes to the curb. Air conditioners are limited to two a year, and each additional unit is $16.
When & how
Call Public Works to schedule the pickup, then put the unit out on the day they give you rather than on a regular barrel day.
Get it ready
Empty the appliance before it goes out and keep it off the barrel line. Ask whether the unit holds refrigerant when you schedule, because a refrigerator or freezer is priced separately and does not ride the no-charge part of the route.
A refrigerator or freezer carries a published scheduled charge, while an air conditioner is free within the yearly limit and priced after it, and the Transfer Station takes air conditioners at no charge.
City cost & eligibility
$16 for the scheduled charge of $16 each for a refrigerator or freezer, with air conditioners free up to two units a year and $16 for each additional unit. Pawtucket properties served by city collection, scheduled on 401-728-0500 ext. 233. The Transfer Station lists air conditioners at no charge but publishes no refrigerator line, so a cooling appliance that still holds refrigerant has to be confirmed before it is loaded.
When & how
Schedule the pickup with Public Works, or take the unit to the Transfer Station during its operating hours if the station confirms it takes it.
Get it ready
Empty and defrost the unit, keep it upright where the maker requires it, and do not cut any refrigerant line. Ask about refrigerant handling when you book, because neither page states how the refrigerant itself is recovered.
Metal items, furniture, mattresses, box springs, appliances and televisions are only collected once they are scheduled with Public Works on 401-728-0500 ext. 233. Furniture is limited to three pieces a week, the larger pieces carry a published price, and everything else that will not fit a barrel can be taken to the Transfer Station with proof of Pawtucket residency.
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.

Schedule the curbside bulky pickup
A Pawtucket household with furniture, a mattress, an appliance, metal or a television that the barrel will not take.
Cost & conditions
The price depends on the item: love seats, couches, sectionals, kitchen tables and up to six chairs are $10 each, refrigerators, freezers, mattresses and box springs are $16 each, and stoves, washers, dryers, water coolers, metal and televisions are listed at no charge, with each air conditioner past two a year at $16. Confirm your load on 401-728-0500 ext. 233.
Arrange it
Call Public Works on 401-728-0500 ext. 233 and book the pickup, then put the items out on the agreed day, with furniture limited to three pieces a week.
Nothing is collected until it is scheduled, construction material and automobile parts are refused, and a property managed by a private company has to arrange its own bulky waste disposal.

Take your own load to the Transfer Station
A Pawtucket resident with household bags, a rug, yard waste, cardboard, tires, white metal, an air conditioner, a mattress, propane or motor oil.
Cost & conditions
From $10 for the $10 charge for a pickup, van or SUV load of up to three bags and for a rolled rug, with a small car load free, recyclable mattresses free up to three a day, non-recyclable mattresses at $25 each, tires over the free allowance at $15 each and propane over 20 pounds at $20. Pawtucket residents only, with a valid license showing a city address. Cash is accepted at the gate; card payments are made in advance through the city's online portal and proof of payment must be shown.
Arrange it
Go to 240 Grotto Avenue Monday to Friday 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. or Saturday 8 a.m. to 1 p.m., and use the appointment route for bulky items, refrigerators and freezers, furniture, televisions and metal.
Closed on holidays and during parking bans, and construction and commercial waste are refused outright, so a project load must go to the state campus instead.
Pawtucket residents have two self-haul routes and one state route. The Transfer Station at 240 Grotto Avenue takes household bags, rugs, yard waste, cardboard, tires, white metal, air conditioners, mattresses, propane and motor oil from residents who show a city-address license, and it books bulky items, refrigerators and freezers, furniture, televisions and metal by appointment, but it refuses construction and commercial waste. A recyclable mattress or box spring can also be dropped free at the city's monthly event on the first Saturday, in the lot across from City Hall, or free at Tuff Stuff Recycling on Walcott Street, and electronics go to that event or to Green Tech Assets on Central Avenue. Construction material has no city route at all, so it goes to the state resource recovery campus on Shun Pike in Johnston, where the city prints a construction line and fees may apply.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Appliance removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Pawtucket.
How much does appliance removal cost in Pawtucket?+
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 Pawtucket?+
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 schedule a bulky pickup in Pawtucket?+
Call Public Works on 401-728-0500 ext. 233 before the item goes to the curb, because metal items, furniture, mattresses, appliances and televisions are only collected once they are scheduled.
