Larger household items are collected once a week on the first garbage day of the week, and the published list covers appliances, furniture, mattresses, water heaters, computers and reasonably sized televisions.
City cost & eligibility
Heavy pick up is part of the residential collection service billed at $23.10 per month plus 8.25% sales tax, and no separate per-item charge is published. Confirm the item and the pickup day with the city on 281-996-3232 or Waste Connections on 281-331-0810.
When & how
Put the item out on the first garbage day of the week. Garbage runs twice a week, so the heavy day is the earlier of the household's two collection days.
Get it ready
Keep the load inside the published conditions: carpet cut to five feet or less, rolled and under 50 pounds and dry before it goes out; swing sets pulled apart and cut down to five feet or less with a total of 300 pounds or less; doors cut in half. Projection televisions, tires, fencing, railroad ties, dirt, cast iron, chemicals and construction material are refused.
Appliances ride the weekly heavy pick up, and a water heater is accepted once the water has been removed. A refrigerator or freezer needs its Freon removed and tagged first.
City cost & eligibility
No appliance charge is published for the heavy pick up, which is part of the residential service billed at $23.10 per month plus 8.25% sales tax. A technician's charge for removing Freon from a cooling appliance is separate and is not published by the city.
When & how
Put the appliance at the curb on the first garbage day of the week, before 7 a.m.
Get it ready
Empty the appliance and remove the water from a water heater before it goes out. For a refrigerator or freezer, have a licensed technician remove the Freon and place a tag or sticker on the unit, because the city will only collect a tagged appliance.
A refrigerator or freezer is collected with heavy garbage only after a licensed technician has removed the Freon and tagged the appliance.
City cost & eligibility
The city publishes no collection charge for a cooling appliance, but the technician who removes the Freon may charge for that work, and the city does not publish that amount, so arrange and confirm the tag before the unit goes out.
When & how
Have the appliance tagged first, then set it out on the first garbage day of the week before 7 a.m.
Get it ready
Empty the unit and keep it upright outside, and do not put it at the curb until the Freon has been removed and the sticker is on the appliance, because an untagged unit will not be collected.
Heavy pick up rides the first garbage day of the week
Friendswood collects larger items once a week on the first garbage day of the household's two collection days. Furniture, mattresses, appliances, water heaters with the water removed, computers and reasonably sized televisions are all on the list, while carpet, swing sets and doors have their own cutting and weight conditions, and construction material, tires, chemicals and projection televisions are refused.
The collection trucks have no lifters, so every bag, can and heavy item is handled by the crew. Garbage bags and cans have to stay at 50 pounds or less and containers at 32 gallons or less, the recycling bin holds only what fits with extra material in a clear bag, and a heavy item that cannot be managed by hand has to be cut down or taken another route.
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.

Friendswood's own route is the weekly heavy pick up, which runs on the first garbage day of the week and carries furniture, mattresses, appliances, water heaters without water, computers and reasonably sized televisions, with carpet, swing sets and doors subject to cutting and weight conditions. A refrigerator or freezer only goes out after a licensed technician removes the Freon and tags the unit. Everything the city refuses, including construction material, tires, fencing, railroad ties, dirt, cast iron and chemicals, has to be handled privately, and hazardous waste and electronics-type material can be taken to the Stella Roberts facility in Pearland, where Friendswood residents pay a fee per pound and should call 281-489-2795 for the current schedule.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Appliance removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Friendswood.
How much does appliance removal cost in Friendswood?+
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 Friendswood?+
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.
When does heavy pick up happen in Friendswood?+
On the first garbage day of the week, once a week, as part of the regular collection service. The published list covers appliances, furniture, mattresses, water heaters with the water removed, computers and reasonably sized televisions, with separate conditions for carpet, swing sets and doors.Official guidance
How do appliances go out in Friendswood?+
On the first garbage day of the week with heavy pick up. A water heater must have the water removed first, and a refrigerator or freezer must be tagged by a licensed technician who has removed the Freon before the city will collect it.Official guidance
Can a refrigerator go out with the trash in Friendswood?+
Only after it is tagged. The city states that refrigerators and freezers are collected for heavy garbage but that the appliance must be tagged to show the Freon has been safely removed, and the tag comes from a licensed technician who removes the refrigerant and may charge for that work.Official guidance
Which day is heavy pick up in Friendswood?+
The first of the household's two weekly garbage days. Garbage is collected twice a week, and the larger items listed by the city, including furniture, mattresses, appliances, water heaters, computers and reasonably sized televisions, are collected once a week on that first day, with everything at the curb by 7 a.m.Official guidance
What happens to collection on a holiday?+
Waste Connections observes New Year's Day, Memorial Day, the Fourth of July, Labor Day, Thanksgiving and Christmas. If a collection day lands on one of those holidays, pickup resumes on the next regularly scheduled day, and the city asks residents to check its Facebook page for the holiday-week schedule. Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve run normally, with a possible early finish once routes are complete.Official guidance
