Rapid City cannot accept refrigerant-bearing appliances at the landfill, including during the free dump period, and refers them to a metal recycler.
City cost & eligibility
A private metal recycler handles refrigerant-bearing appliances and sets its own terms, so confirm acceptance, hours and price with Pacific Steel and Recycling directly.
When & how
Call the recycler before loading the unit, because the city route is refused at the gate.
Get it ready
Keep the unit upright, leave the refrigerant circuit intact and never vent refrigerant at home.
Metals are accepted for free recycling at the landfill, which is the working route for appliance bodies that do not hold refrigerant.
City cost & eligibility
The rate sheet lists metals such as ferrous and non-ferrous scrap at no charge. Confirm how your specific appliance is classified at the scale, because refrigerant-bearing units are refused.
When & how
Bring appliances during landfill scale hours, Monday through Saturday, 7am to 4pm.
Get it ready
Remove food, water and loose parts, keep the unit upright for travel and ask at the scale where metal loads unload.
Bring loads to the landfill scale between 7am and 4pm, Monday through Saturday. Expect a minimum disposal charge or a flat load rate, and sort out refrigerant-bearing appliances, liquids and paint before you arrive.
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.
For furniture, mattresses, appliances, construction debris, tires, metal and other large items that have no curbside route.
Cost & conditions
The gate charges a $10 minimum disposal charge, flat car, sport utility and pickup load rates, or tonnage rates such as $73 per ton for mixed waste and construction debris.
Arrange it
Load the item, drive to 5555 S Hwy 79 and check in at the scale between 7am and 4pm, Monday through Saturday.
Refrigerant-bearing appliances are refused, liquids and hazardous material are not accepted as solid waste, and paint has to be hardened before disposal.
For televisions, computers, batteries and metal items that have no municipal collection route.
Cost & conditions
Private recyclers set their own prices. The division lists nearby electronics recyclers and a metal recycler, and it asks residents to confirm accepted items and any charge.
Arrange it
Call the business before loading the item, and note that one listed electronics recycler works by appointment only.
The city does not operate a municipal electronics program, and refrigerant-bearing appliances are refused at the landfill and referred to a metal recycler.
Rapid City moves most large items by self-haul. Bring loads to the landfill scale between 7am and 4pm, Monday through Saturday, expect a minimum charge or a flat load rate, and sort out refrigerant-bearing appliances, liquids, hazardous material and unhardened paint before you arrive.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Appliance removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Rapid City.
How much does appliance removal cost in Rapid City?+
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 Rapid City?+
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.
Does the Rapid City Landfill take refrigerators?+
No. The city states that refrigerant-bearing appliances cannot be accepted, including during the free dump period, and directs residents to a metal recycler instead.Official guidance
Where do Rapid City residents take a washer or dryer?+
Metal loads recycle free at the Rapid City Landfill, so a washer or dryer normally goes to the metal area. Ask the scale staff how the unit is classified, and keep refrigerant-bearing appliances out of the load.Official guidance
What should I expect at the Rapid City Landfill gate?+
Loads are weighed at the scale, which is open Monday through Saturday, 7am to 4pm, with a minimum charge and either a flat load rate or a tonnage rate. Metal, cardboard, plastics, glass, cans and residential yard waste recycle free.Official guidance
Where do large items go when there is no curbside pickup?+
Haul them to the landfill or hire a private hauler. Refrigerant-bearing appliances are refused and referred to a metal recycler, and mattresses are charged per piece regardless of size.Official guidance
