Scrap metal

Special rules apply

Scrap metal is not on the City's published bulk rate list. Polk County accepts scrap metal in residential loads at its northeast convenience center.

City cost & eligibility
The county convenience center takes scrap metal as part of a residential load under its flat vehicle rates, and the City charges bulky non-horticultural refuse by volume. Confirm the load type and price before travel.
When & how
Take it to the county convenience center during its posted hours, or ask the City for a pickup quote.
Get it ready
Keep metal separate from other material and confirm whether it must be cut down or bundled for handling.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

Request bulk before setting it out

Bulk pickup is a scheduled service, so the couch, mattress, appliance or pile waits for the confirmed date rather than the routine route. Describe every item when you request the pickup.

For your Dropcurb pickup

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.

City of Winter Haven Solid Waste Division and Polk County Solid Waste

Schedule a City bulk pickup

City-serviced homes with furniture, mattresses, appliances or a bulky pile that the weekly cart cannot take.

Cost & conditions
From $14.69 for lowest published per-item bulk rate for furniture, with separate published rates for appliances, scrap-sized refuse and non-horticultural refuse by volume. City of Winter Haven residential accounts inside city limits. Request the pickup first and confirm the current rate for the exact items.
Arrange it
Submit the request through Access Winter Haven or call the Solid Waste Division, then set the items out for the confirmed date.

Bulk pickup is an a la carte, scheduled service. Routine collection does not take oversized items, and each category carries its own published rate.

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Two county routes serve Winter Haven addresses. The household hazardous waste facility on Environmental Loop takes chemicals and electronics from residents at no additional fee with a five-component limit, and the northeast convenience center takes bulky, yard and construction material, tires and scrap metal at flat residential rates with proof of residency. Polk County now routes residents away from the North Central Landfill and to its transfer station, so confirm the current drop-off location and hours before loading.
