Appliance Recycling & Proper Disposal in Philadelphia

Pennsylvania and federal law require proper disposal of appliances containing refrigerants such as Freon, HFCs, or mercury. These chemicals are toxic and harm the environment, and improperly discarding them can lead to steep fines for illegal dumping.

Philadelphia Appliance Removal Cost

The cost of junk removal depends on the volume of space your items occupy in our truck. 

Appliances containing refrigerant incur a $50 surcharge to cover Freon recovery and processing.

We offer:

Alternative Disposal Options - United City Cleaning Initiative & Sanitation Convenience Center

Philadelphia offers public disposal through Sanitation Convenience Centers, regular trash collection sites, and bulk trash pickups.

On September 16, 2024, the City of Philadelphia's Department of Sanitation launched the new Residential Bulk Collection Program. This program is available to single-family homes and multi-family dwellings with up to six units. Residents can schedule bulk-item pickups for up to 4 items per appointment, including large metal items such as refrigerators, air conditioners, and tires. The program is specifically designed to help residents dispose of large metal household items not picked up during regular trash collection. Appointments are limited and scheduled on a first-come, first-served basis. Bulk items can be collected directly at your regular trash collection site, providing a convenient alternative to transporting them yourself.

To promote awareness and participation, the city notifies block captains and community groups about the program. These initiatives not only improve neighborhood cleanliness but also create economic opportunity for residents. 

However, these services:

  • Are limited to certain days and require a service request number
  • May not accept certain inoperable bulk items, appliances with refrigerant, or construction materials
  • Are only available to residents of single-family homes
  • Do not offer indoor pickups or haul away from apartments

There is also the United City Cleaning Initiative - this free service assists residents, but do keep in mind that capacity is limited. For official city guidelines on bulk item and appliance disposal, visit the City of Philadelphia’s Department of Sanitation.
