Scrap metal and Freon appliances

Accepted with preparation

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.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right 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.

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.

Town of South Windsor Public Works with All American Waste

Book the Wednesday scrap metal pickup

A household with metal items, a grill, or a Freon appliance such as a refrigerator, freezer, air conditioner, wine cooler or dehumidifier.

Cost & conditions
From $20 per item for a Freon appliance 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 application for Freon items and paying online, at the Public Works office in Town Hall, or by cheque to the Town of South Windsor.
Arrange it
Call 860-289-7850 before noon on Tuesday for the Wednesday run, and for a Freon item submit the town application and payment before that same deadline.

A request made after noon on Tuesday waits for the following Wednesday, items go out before 7 a.m. on the pickup day, and the bulky programme cannot be used instead for a Freon appliance or for construction material.

See the Freon rules

Taking it somewhere yourself?

South Windsor keeps its bulky material on the town calendar rather than a transfer station. Bulky waste goes to the curb on the regular trash day during the first full week of the month, by 7 a.m., and takes furniture, mattresses and box springs, rolled and tied carpets, large plastic items and up to four car tires without rims. Scrap metal is recycled on a Wednesday run booked with All American Waste on 860-289-7850 before noon on Tuesday, and an appliance holding Freon needs the town's online application and a fee per item paid before the town calls the hauler. Electronics are free at the town's collection events in the Town Hall rear parking lot at 1540 Sullivan Avenue, and yard waste is not a curbside town service outside the leaf programme, so brush goes to Green Earth Recycling in Bloomfield at the homeowner's expense or to the Manchester landfill under pay-as-you-dump.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

Scrap metal removal, from your photo request to the pickup plan in South Windsor.

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.

Where does South Windsor scrap metal go?

Scrap metal is recyclable and picked up on a Wednesday, so call All American Waste on 860-289-7850 before noon on Tuesday to book it. An appliance holding Freon, such as a refrigerator, air conditioner, wine cooler, freezer or dehumidifier, needs the town online application and a fee per item first, and the same Tuesday noon deadline decides whether it goes out that Wednesday or the next one.Official guidance
