Scrap metal
Accepted with preparationScrap metal has its own place on the curbside bulky list and at the transfer station, which both take a wide range of metal items.
- City cost & eligibility
- The curbside appointment is covered by the per unit allowance or the flat charge for an extra one, and any transfer station charge is confirmed with Public Works on 860-291-7374.
- When & how
- Add the metal to a bulky appointment with the hauler, or bring it to the transfer station during its open hours.
- Get it ready
- Bundle pipe and fencing within the four foot limit and take the concrete base off fencing first. Keep the piece whole enough for the crew to handle, and leave car parts, including tires and batteries, out of the curbside pile because they are refused there.
Tires
Special rules applyTires are refused on the curbside bulky route as car parts, and the transfer station takes passenger vehicle tires instead.
- City cost & eligibility
- The tire route runs through the town transfer station, and its charge is confirmed with Public Works on 860-291-7374 before loading.
- When & how
- Bring the tires to the transfer station on a Monday, Tuesday or Friday between 7:15 a.m. and 11:45 a.m. or between 12:30 p.m. and 2:35 p.m., or on the first or third Saturday from 8 a.m. to 1:45 p.m.
- Get it ready
- Keep tires off the bulky pile, where car parts including tires and batteries are refused, and keep them out of the ordinary rubbish. Bring passenger vehicle size tires rather than truck sizes, and check the holiday schedule before the trip.
The handoff matters
Right item.
Right place.
Six items, sorted the way the town lists them
Only six items go to the curb per appointment, and they should be grouped and prepared the way the town lists them: drain the fluids from a mower or snowblower, remove refrigerator and freezer doors, take the propane tank off a grill, and keep bundled pipe and fencing within four feet and clear of concrete bases. Bags, boxes, recyclables and household rubbish never go in a bulky pile.

The transfer station opens Monday, Tuesday and Friday from 7:15 a.m. to 11:45 a.m. and again from 12:30 p.m. to 2:35 p.m., and on the first and third Saturday of the month from 8 a.m. to 1:45 p.m. Holidays can change that, so the town asks residents to check the Public Works page or call 860-291-7374 first. Hazardous waste including batteries, concrete and masonry, soil, stumps and propane tanks are refused at the gate.

Before you book
A few things
worth knowing.
Scrap metal removal, from your photo request to the pickup plan in East Hartford.
How do I request a scrap metal pickup quote?
Text photos to (844) 879-0892 with your ZIP code, approximate amount and access details. Show the whole pile and a closer view of the material. Our team will confirm the scope, quote and scheduling.
Do you buy scrap metal or pick it up for free?
This is a request for a paid removal quote, not a scrap-buying or free-collection offer. If you want to sell metal, ask a local recycler about its accepted materials and delivery requirements.
How much does scrap metal removal cost?
This service uses a custom quote. Send photos, the approximate amount, your ZIP code and access details. Our team confirms the scope and price before booking; there is no fixed-price catalog item for this pile.
Can you collect it today?
Tell our team your preferred day when you request the quote. Timing depends on the material, amount and access, and is confirmed with your quote. Sending photos does not reserve same-day pickup.

The town lists refrigerators and freezers with the doors off, microwaves, stoves, washers, dryers, dishwashers, air conditioners, drained mowers and snowblowers, swing sets, tire rims, bicycles, grills without propane tanks, metal lawn furniture, bundled pipe and fencing, storm windows, radiators and the metal insert from a sleeper sofa, plus other similar scrap metal. Car parts with tires and batteries are refused on that route.Official guidance

Car parts including tires and batteries, building demolition debris such as lumber, earth, stone, concrete and masonry, electronics such as televisions and computers, hazardous waste such as paint, gas, oil and pesticides, anything in bags or cardboard boxes, and recyclables or household rubbish.
