TV Removal in Bradenton, FL

City of Bradenton runs an appointment-only Bulk Item Pickup through Public Works & Utilities online. The bulk-eligible list explicitly begins with appliances — refrigerators, stoves, dishwashers, water heaters, freezers, washers, and dryers — alongside furniture, electronics, and drained garden equipment. The fee is a $10.00 flat per item, billed to the resident's utility account; the August 2023 overhaul replaced the prior tiered schedule that charged different prices for fridges vs. furniture vs. appliances. Items must be at the curb by 6:00 a.m. on the scheduled collection day. Residents must check the provider website within 48 hours of placing items at the curb to schedule the pickup — failure to do so risks a $300 illegal-dumping fee added to the utility bill. Bulk runs on-demand by appointment, not on a fixed weekly route. Refrigerators, freezers, window ACs, and dehumidifiers are accepted curbside on the City run; EPA Section 608 refrigerant recovery is handled downstream at Lena Road, not at the curb. Apartments, condos, and commercial accounts are not on the City residential bulk channel. Effective May 1, 2025, Manatee County (unincorporated areas, NOT the City) relaunched bulk pickup at 2 items per household per month and no longer accepts random curbside placement — residents in Lakewood Ranch, parts of West Bradenton, and Oneco are on the unincorporated program; a fridge + range + dishwasher kitchen swap fills the entire monthly County cap.
