The local disposal guide
Will the city take it?
South Windsor collects refuse, recycling and bulky waste through All American Waste under a town contract. Bulky waste is the useful route for a clear-out, because it runs during the first full week of every month on the regular trash day and takes furniture, mattresses and box springs, carpets rolled and tied, large plastic items and up to four car tires without rims, as long as the pile is at the curb by 7 a.m. and is not hiding in boxes or bags. Scrap metal is recycled on a separate Wednesday run booked with the hauler before noon on Tuesday, and an appliance holding Freon needs the town application and a fee per item before that pickup. Televisions, computers and most other electronics are free at the town's collection events in the Town Hall rear parking lot, with six dates through 2026 and no appointment. Yard waste has no curbside town route outside the fall leaf programme, so brush and tree debris go to a composting site in Bloomfield or to the Manchester landfill under its pay-as-you-dump programme.

City cost & eligibility
The town publishes no fee for the monthly bulky collection, so confirm the item and any charge with All American Waste on 860-289-7850, which handles refuse, recycling, scrap metal and bulky waste for the town.
When & how
Have the pile separated from other refuse and at the curb by 7 a.m. on the regular trash day during the first full week of the month. The town lists its 2026 weeks from January 5 to 9 through December 7 to 11, and no collection is made on New Year's Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day or Christmas Day, with a one day delay after each.
Get it ready
Keep the pile out of cardboard boxes and plastic bags, because bulky waste is not collected that way, and keep bagged or loose trash out of it entirely. Carpets and rugs have to be rolled and tied and no larger than five feet wide and six feet long, and tires are limited to four per household and only without rims.
Televisions, computers and most other electronics are free at the town's collection events in the Town Hall rear parking lot, with six dates through 2026 and no appointment.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. The town states that South Windsor residents can recycle electronics for free at its events, held in the Town Hall rear parking lot from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. with no appointment required.
When & how
The 2026 dates are January 3, March 7, May 2, July 11, September 12 and November 7, from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Town Hall rear parking lot, 1540 Sullivan Avenue, with access from Sullivan Avenue and signs controlling traffic. The e-waste contractor receives items directly from each resident.
Get it ready
Bring televisions of any type including tube sets, computers and laptops, monitors, printers and copiers, fax machines, players, game systems, phones, keyboards, mice, cables and cords. Leave loose batteries, light bulbs, microwaves, air conditioners, paint, aerosols, liquids, medical waste, medications, mercury thermometers, pressurised canisters and any device holding a lithium-ion battery over 300 watt hours at home, because the event refuses them.
Yard waste has no curbside town route outside the fall leaf programme, so brush and tree debris go to a composting site in Bloomfield or to the Manchester landfill under pay-as-you-dump.
City cost & eligibility
The town publishes no fee for yard waste, and it states that disposal prices at Green Earth Recycling are paid by the homeowner, so confirm the current charge with the site on 860-242-2325 or with the Manchester landfill on 860-647-3257.
When & how
Tree debris, bush debris and branches may be delivered by the homeowner to Green Earth Recycling in Bloomfield or to the Town of Manchester landfill under its pay-as-you-dump programme. Leaves wait for the town's district leaf collection, which runs in two passes each season with a 24-hour hotline on 860-648-6371.
Get it ready
Pile leaves on the snow shelf or the edge of the property and keep sticks, twigs, branches and logs out of the leaf pile, because they clog the collection equipment. Residents with leaves left after the second pass may pick up a key at the Town Garage on 157 Burgess Road between 7 a.m. and 3:15 p.m., and grass clippings follow the state guidance rather than going in the trash.
Scrap metal is recycled on a Wednesday run booked with the hauler before noon on Tuesday, and an appliance holding Freon needs the town application and a per item fee first.
City cost & eligibility
From $20 per item for a Freon appliance such as a refrigerator, air conditioner, wine cooler, freezer or dehumidifier through the town application, while plain scrap metal is scheduled with All American Waste without a published fee. South Windsor households using the town's Freon application and paying online by card or eCheck, in person at the Public Works office on the top floor of Town Hall, or by cheque made out to the Town of South Windsor.
When & how
Call All American Waste on 860-289-7850 before noon on Tuesday for the Wednesday metal pickup. For a Freon item, submit the town application and pay, and then a request completed by noon on Tuesday is scheduled for that same Wednesday while a later request waits for the following Wednesday.
Get it ready
Put the metal out before 7 a.m. on the scheduled pickup day. Keep non-metal parts, Freon appliances such as dehumidifiers and window air conditioners, and construction material out of a general bulky pile, because the bulky programme refuses construction material and coated metal belongs on the metal run with the application in place.
One bulky week a month, and the pile must look like furniture
Bulky waste is a separate collection for refuse too large for the trash bin, and it runs during the first full week of every month on the regular trash day with the pile at the curb by 7 a.m. Furniture such as sofas, sleeper sofas and overstuffed chairs, mattresses and box springs, carpets rolled and tied within five feet by six feet, large plastic items and up to four car tires without rims are accepted. Construction material, remodelling material such as doors, windows, cabinets and flooring, covered electronics, pianos, cardboard boxes and bagged or loose trash are refused, because bulky waste is not collected in boxes or bags.
Televisions, computers and most other electronics are free to South Windsor residents at the town's collection events, held in the Town Hall rear parking lot at 1540 Sullivan Avenue from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. with no appointment required. The 2026 dates are January 3, March 7, May 2, July 11, September 12 and November 7, with access from Sullivan Avenue and the e-waste contractor taking items directly from each vehicle. Batteries, light bulbs, microwaves, air conditioners, aerosols, liquids, medical waste and lithium-ion devices over 300 watt hours are refused at the event.
Two specialty runs: metal on Wednesday, leaves in the fall
Scrap metal goes on a Wednesday run that has to be booked with All American Waste on 860-289-7850 before noon on Tuesday, and a Freon item needs the town application and a fee per item paid before the town calls the hauler. Yard waste is not part of the curbside programme outside the leaf season, so brush and tree debris travel to Green Earth Recycling in Bloomfield at the homeowner's expense or to the Manchester landfill under pay-as-you-dump. Leaves are piled on the snow shelf for the district leaf collection with sticks and branches kept out, and anything left after the second pass goes to the Burgess Road site with a key from the Town Garage.
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.
