Who picks up old grills for free?

Answer sources: Twin Cities ReStore item requirements; SA Recycling appliance and material FAQ

Check reuse and scrap options first

If the grill is clean, complete and working, ask Twin Cities ReStore whether it qualifies for seasonal pickup. If it is mainly metal, contact a local SA Recycling yard or another scrap collector and confirm whether it accepts the whole grill and provides pickup. Metal value and acceptance can vary, so do not assume a scrap yard will collect it from your home.

Prepare the grill safely

Identify whether the grill is charcoal or gas, and arrange separate handling for any propane cylinder. Cool the ashes and have a capable person disconnect fuel when needed. Do not puncture or drain a cylinder. Confirm the collector’s exact requirements before pickup.

If free pickup is unavailable

Dropcurb can fit an accepted charcoal grill or freestanding gas grill when it is outside and accessible before pickup. A separate propane tank is not included, and unusually large, built-in or uncommon setups may need a photo check. If you cannot move the grill outside, use a service that includes indoor carrying.
