Washers, dryers, stoves and other appliances

Accepted with preparation

The county recycling area takes washers and dryers, stoves and ranges, hot water tanks, microwaves and metal-housing dishwashers free for residential customers, as long as the unit is free of garbage and contains no refrigerant or CFCs.

City cost & eligibility
No charge. Residential customers using the recycling area at the Southwest Recycling and Transfer Station for household appliances without refrigerant or CFCs, with the item free of garbage. A plastic-housing dishwasher is accepted as garbage at the regular garbage rates instead, and lawn mowers are taken with the fluids drained and the battery removed.
When & how
Take the appliance to 21311 61st Place West during the posted hours, tell the attendant it is going to the recycling area, and unload it yourself. Waste Management can also collect an appliance by special arrangement for a fee on 1-800-592-9995.
Get it ready
Empty the unit, remove all garbage from inside and around it, and drain the fluids from a lawn mower and take the battery out before it goes in the load. Keep a refrigerator, freezer, air conditioner, heat pump, dehumidifier or water cooler out of the recycling area because the county refuses them there.

Refrigerators, freezers and cooling appliances

Special rules apply

Refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners, heat pumps, dehumidifiers and water coolers are on the Snohomish County prohibited list, so a cooling appliance has to go to a an appliance recycler that handles refrigerant or through a Waste Management special pickup.

City cost & eligibility
No rate is published for a cooling appliance. The county refuses refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners, heat pumps, dehumidifiers and water coolers at its own facilities and points to an appliance recycler that handles refrigerant instead, starting with Ace Metal in Mukilteo on 425-493-6802, while Waste Management books a bulky special pickup on 1-800-592-9995 for a fee, so confirm the receiving business and its price before the unit is moved.
When & how
Call the recycler or Waste Management first, confirm that the unit will be accepted and what it costs, then move it on the day that is agreed.
Get it ready
Empty and defrost the unit, tape the doors shut or remove them for safety, and leave the refrigerant circuit sealed. Confirm with the receiving business who recovers the refrigerant, because the county pages do not describe that step for a household unit.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

Weekly garbage and every other week recycling

Waste Management collects garbage every week, and recycling with food and yard waste every other week, with carts at the curb by 7 a.m. Bag all garbage, keep recycling empty, clean and loose, and put food scraps and yard trimmings in the green cart. Extra garbage, extra recycling and extra yard waste that will not fit in the container with the lid closed all carry a charge.

What never goes in either cart

Hazardous waste, medical waste, syringes, fluorescent bulbs, fuel tanks, liquids, computers and televisions stay out of the garbage cart, and batteries, plastic bags, foam, diapers, shredded paper, aluminum foil and broken dishes stay out of the recycling cart. County facilities refuse electronics, cooling appliances and dangerous waste as well, so each of those items needs the route named on its own page.

Holiday collection

Waste Management observes three annual holidays, Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day and New Year's Day. A weekday holiday delays collection by one day for the rest of that week, so a Thursday holiday moves Thursday customers to Friday and Friday customers to Saturday. Garbage is not collected on Independence Day, while recycling and yard debris run as scheduled, and the county transfer station closes on New Year's Day, Independence Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day.

Bulky items are booked, not set out

Bulky items such as mattresses, appliances and building materials are collected by special arrangement for a fee and are not taken on the ordinary collection day, so call Waste Management on 1-800-592-9995 before anything goes to the curb. The same line also handles extra garbage and a container for a clean-out, and the county transfer station is the self-haul option when the item can be carried in a vehicle.

Waste Management for City of Mountlake Terrace households, with Snohomish County Solid Waste and E-Cycle Washington

Book a Waste Management special arrangement

A household that would rather leave the couch, mattress, appliance or building material at the curb than load it into a vehicle.

Cost & conditions
The Mountlake Terrace guide states that bulky items such as mattresses, appliances and building materials are collected by special arrangement for a fee, and no rate or size limit is published, so confirm the item and the current price with Waste Management on 1-800-592-9995 when the pickup is booked.
Arrange it
Call 1-800-592-9995 during the posted hours, describe the items, confirm the price and the collection day, and have everything at the curb for that day.

Bulky collection is an arrangement rather than a scheduled service day, and material the county refuses such as cooling appliances, electronics, hazardous waste and liquids still needs its own route even when a pickup is booked.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

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

How much does appliance removal cost in Mountlake Terrace?

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 Mountlake Terrace?

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.

Where do washers, dryers and stoves go in Mountlake Terrace?

The Snohomish County recycling area at the Southwest station in Mountlake Terrace takes household appliances without refrigerant or CFCs free for residential customers, naming washers and dryers, stoves and ranges, gas or electric hot water tanks, microwaves and metal-housing dishwashers. The unit has to be free of garbage, and a plastic-housing dishwasher is charged as garbage instead. Cooling appliances such as a refrigerator, freezer or air conditioner are refused there and have to go to a an appliance recycler that handles refrigerant.Official guidance

Can I take a refrigerator to the Mountlake Terrace transfer station?

No. Refrigerators and freezers are on the Snohomish County prohibited list for its own facilities, alongside air conditioners, heat pumps, dehumidifiers and water coolers. The county recycling page sends those units to an appliance recycler that handles refrigerant, and Ace Metal in Mukilteo on 425-493-6802 is first on that list. Waste Management will also collect a cooling appliance from your address as a bulky special arrangement for a fee on 1-800-592-9995, so confirm the price before either route.Official guidance

What does a bulky item drop-off cost in Mountlake Terrace?

The county station charges one garbage fee per vehicle rather than a price per item, so a couch, mattress or load of household junk costs the same light-load minimum as any other garbage trip, with a heavier vehicle charged by the ton on top of that. Appliances without refrigerant, lawn mowers with the fluids drained, clean scrap metal and the other listed recyclables cost nothing for residential customers. If you would rather have Waste Management collect the item from your address, that is a special arrangement with its own fee, so confirm the price on the phone first.Official guidance
