Fridges and freezers

Choose Refrigerator for a full-size household fridge. Mini fridges and separate freezers have their own choices. Contact us first if the model or refrigerant needs checking.

Refrigerators, stoves, water heaters and air conditioners

Accepted with preparation

Large household appliances are named on the city large item list: refrigerators, freezers, stoves, water heaters, air conditioners and microwaves all go out behind the curb on your collection day, and the doors come off before the unit leaves the house.

City cost & eligibility
No charge. City collection addresses, where large appliances ride with the weekly bulky item service funded through the tax assessment rather than being billed per unit. An appliance hauled to the county transfer station instead carries a per unit charge when it holds a refrigerant or a capacitor.
When & how
Out no more than 24 hours before your collection day, standing upright in the open where the crane truck can reach it.
Get it ready
Remove the doors before the appliance goes to the curb, empty and defrost a refrigerator or freezer, tape or tie the doors and drawers so nothing swings open during handling, and leave the unit clear of the carts and of parked cars.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

Carts by 7 a.m., large items inside 24 hours

Carts and bags go out no later than 7 a.m. on your collection day, as early as dusk the night before, and come back in by 8 p.m. that evening. Anything too large for a cart, from a couch to a water heater, goes behind the curb no more than 24 hours before the same collection day, in an open spot the crane truck can reach. Keep the spot clear of parked vehicles, low hanging limbs, power lines and fire hydrants, remove the doors from appliances before they go out, and keep sidewalks, storm drains and utility covers clear.

City of Fairfax Public Works refuse and recycling collection, with the Fairfax County recycling and disposal centers

Set bulky items out with your city collection

A city household with a couch, a mattress, an appliance or a pile of household material that will not fit in a cart, and no need to drive anywhere.

Cost & conditions
No charge. Single-family homes, duplexes and townhomes on the city collection route, where the bulky item service is funded through the annual tax assessment rather than billed per piece.
Arrange it
Put the item behind the curb no more than 24 hours before your regular collection day, in the open where the crane truck can reach it, and leave it there until the crew has been by.

Electronics, batteries, paint, chemicals, tires and anything a contractor generated are outside this route, and the city does not collect on ten holidays, so a collection day that lands on a holiday moves to the next day.

City of Fairfax Public Works refuse and recycling collection, with the Fairfax County recycling and disposal centers

Haul it to the county drop-off centers

A city household that would rather not wait for the truck, has electronics or hazardous waste to clear out, or has a load bigger than the curb service handles.

Cost & conditions
From $39 for the minimum charge on a bulk or unbagged residential load at the I-66 Transfer Station, with mixed waste at $98 per ton, bagged trash at $21 for one to five bags or $28 for six to ten bags, and flat per item charges of $17 for a sofa, love seat, recliner, chair, dresser, desk, dining table, carpet or mattress and box spring, $15 for an appliance that needs refrigerant or capacitor removal, $11 for a small single item and $14 per passenger tire. Residential loads at the county centers, which the city directs its residents to with proof of a city address. The published residential schedule is written for county households, and separated recyclables, household electronics and household hazardous waste are taken free of charge at the same sites.
Arrange it
Load the car or truck, bring an ID or utility bill with the city address, and follow the site lanes: recyclables and food scraps in their own area, electronics and hazardous waste at their station, and weighed material through the scales.

The electronics and hazardous waste area at I-66 is closed on Wednesday, tires are capped at ten passenger or light truck tires per household, brick, concrete, dirt and rock are limited to small daily amounts and priced higher than mixed bulk, and commercial hazardous waste and commercial drop-off are refused.

Taking it somewhere yourself?

A Fairfax household that would rather not wait for the truck takes its material to the Fairfax County drop-off centers, and the city tells residents to bring an ID or utility bill with the city address. At the I-66 Transfer Station on West Ox Road, mixed bulk waste is weighed and priced by the ton with a minimum charge, bagged household trash is priced by the bag, and single pieces carry flat charges: a dresser, desk, sofa, sleep sofa, love seat, recliner, chair, dining room table, carpet or pad, or a mattress and box spring, each at one rate, a smaller single item at a lower one, and an appliance that needs refrigerant or capacitor removal at its own rate. Brick, concrete, dirt and rock are priced higher and limited to small daily amounts per household, and passenger tires run at a per tire rate for the first ten. Household hazardous waste and household electronics are taken without charge at the same site, with the electronics area closed on Wednesday, and the I-95 Landfill Complex in Lorton takes the same two streams on Wednesday and Saturday.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

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

How much does appliance removal cost in Fairfax?

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 Fairfax?

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 the city take a refrigerator or an air conditioner?

Yes. Refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners, stoves, water heaters and microwaves are all named on the city list of appliances too large for a waste container, and they are collected from behind the curb on your regular collection day. Remove the doors before the unit goes out, and empty and defrost anything with a freezer compartment. If you haul the unit to the county transfer station instead, an appliance that needs refrigerant or capacitor removal is a priced item there.Official guidance
