Does Alafaya pick up appliances?

Same-day junk removal in Alafaya starts at $79 with Dropcurb, with curbside pickup that avoids long scheduling windows and in-home estimates. Alafaya has 92,452 residents spread across large master-planned communities near UCF, Waterford Lakes, and Avalon Park, so move-outs and furniture turnover happen constantly.

City program details: Orange County unincorporated curbside program collects large items once per week, limited to 3 cubic yards per household per week; refrigerators/freezers with Freon are excluded.

Alafaya is largely unincorporated Orange County, where large-item pickup runs once weekly but caps each household at 3 cubic yards and excludes key items like Freon appliances. That sounds flexible until you are over the volume cap, miss the set-out window, or need a faster cleanup before HOA inspections in communities like Avalon Park or Stoneybrook. The county also requires strict separation rules for garbage, recycling, yard waste, and large items, which creates friction for one-day cleanouts.

Dropcurb picks up appliances same-day in Alafaya for $104 flat — no wait, no annual limits, no restrictions.

Weekly pickup exists, but the 3-cubic-yard cap breaks real cleanouts.

Orange County offers weekly large-item service in unincorporated areas, yet Alafaya households are limited to roughly 3 cubic yards and must follow strict sorting and timing rules. One missed window or oversized load can delay cleanup by a week, which is costly when an HOA, move-out deadline, or property listing timeline is involved.

What happens to your appliance after pickup

Appliances are recycled at licensed facilities that specialize in handling refrigerants, compressor oils, and heavy metals. Refrigerators and freezers undergo certified Freon recovery before processing — the $25 recycling fee covers this. Steel, copper, aluminum, and other metals are separated and sent to scrap processors. Compressors, motors, and wiring are individually processed. Appliances in working condition may be refurbished and resold or donated to organizations like Habitat for Humanity ReStore.
