Front-load and top-load washing machines use the washing machine choice. Add the dryer separately. Contact us about a single combined laundry unit or a stack that still needs separating.
Fridges and freezers
Choose Refrigerator for a full-size household fridge. Mini fridges and separate freezers have their own choices. Contact us first if the model or refrigerant needs checking.

Appliances are not a cart item in Hammond, but Lake County names them in a dedicated appliance recycling programme covering fridges, microwaves and washers, with drop-off locations published separately. Nothing in the city material offers an appliance pick-up rate.
City cost & eligibility
The district names the appliance programme but publishes its drop-off locations and any charges elsewhere, so confirm the accepted appliance and the cost with the district or on its programme page before the unit leaves the house.
When & how
Check the district's appliance recycling programme for the nearest drop-off and its opening hours, and note that household hazardous waste collection events are a separate service held monthly from March through October.
Get it ready
Empty and defrost the unit, secure the doors, and confirm whether the unit holds refrigerant before choosing a route, because the district's hazardous waste events take household-size propane, helium and oxygen tanks but the appliance programme is a separate service.
Human feces, brake fluid, animal carcasses, gasoline, cement, oil, wood, bleach, sand, ammonia, dirt, pool chemicals, sod, branches, oil based paint, roofing shingles, yard waste and miscellaneous junk are all banned from the green carts. The city says some of those items can be picked up by the Street Department through a special pick-up arranged at 853-6431 and that others can only be dropped at a Lake County hazardous waste drop-off between April and October.
Lake County Solid Waste Management holds household hazardous waste collections across the county monthly from March through October, restricted to Lake County residents, with the Hammond event at Hammond Public Works, 601 Conkey St., on Saturday September 12 from 9am to 2pm. Accepted material includes antifreeze, automotive fluids, household batteries, fuels, oil based paint, pesticides, propane tanks, solvents, sharps in a rigid container and sealed thermometers, while latex paint, asbestos, acetylene tanks and auto batteries are refused, and paper shredding is offered with a four bag limit.
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 Hammond Sanitation Department and the Lake County Solid Waste Management District
Arrange a Street Department special pick-up
A household with furniture, a mattress, an appliance, exercise equipment or another banned item that cannot go in the cart.
Cost & conditions
The city publishes no rate for the special pick-up, so confirm the item and the cost at 853-6431 before relying on the collection.
Arrange it
Put the material out and call the Street Department at 853-6431, which is the process the city describes for the banned items it can collect.
Only some banned items can be collected this way, construction material is not promised through it, and nothing should sit on the alley line for long because code enforcement cites for improper piles.
City of Hammond Sanitation Department and the Lake County Solid Waste Management District
Use the district's electronics and appliance programmes
A household with a television, computer, fridge, microwave, washer, latex paint or tires.
Cost & conditions
The district names each programme but publishes the drop-off locations and any charges on its own programme pages, so confirm the site and the cost before loading a vehicle.
Arrange it
Follow the district's links for computer component and TV recycling, appliance recycling, latex paint recycling and tire recycling to find the nearest drop-off point.
Each programme has its own accepted items and locations, the monthly hazardous waste events are a separate service, and the district restricts its services to Lake County residents.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Appliance removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Hammond.
How much does appliance removal cost in Hammond?+
A full-size household refrigerator is $109 as a single item. A washing machine is $109, and a dryer is $109. Other appliances have their own catalog prices. Choose each item to see your exact total before booking; disposal and recycling costs are included in the item price.
Can I get same-day appliance pickup in Hammond?+
Book by 2pm at your pickup address for same-day pickup, where available. Checkout shows the dates you can choose. Your pickup is scheduled for a day rather than an exact arrival appointment, and we text you before arrival. Have the appliance disconnected and ready outside by your pickup readiness time.
Can you take a washing machine and dryer in one pickup?+
Yes. Add one Washing machine and one Dryer so both units are included in the price. They are separate items, even when you bought them as a set. If yours is a single combined unit or the machines still need to be unstacked, contact us before booking to confirm the scope.
Will you disconnect my appliance or carry it out?+
Dropcurb picks up appliances that are already disconnected and accessible outside at ground level. Arrange uninstallation, utility disconnection and indoor carrying before pickup. Use a qualified professional for gas, hardwired or plumbing connections when needed. We handle loading and haul-away from the outdoor pickup spot.
Can I book if the delivery company did not take my old appliance?+
Yes. Dropcurb pickup is separate from buying or installing a replacement, so you can book removal on its own. Select the old appliance, choose a pickup day and arrange for it to be disconnected and accessible outside. If your new delivery is still ahead, confirm the retailer’s haul-away arrangements before booking a separate pickup.
Where do Hammond appliances go?+
Hammond's carts take kitchen garbage only and appliances are not on the list, but Lake County Solid Waste Management runs a separate appliance recycling programme for fridges, microwaves and washers and publishes its drop-off locations. Confirm the unit and any charge with the district before a trip, and check the city's special pick-up line at 853-6431 if the appliance has to leave from the curb.Official guidance
Where do Hammond chemicals and electronics go?+
Chemicals go to a Lake County Solid Waste Management collection event, held monthly from March through October for Lake County residents, with the Hammond event at 601 Conkey St. on Saturday September 12 from 9am to 2pm. Electronics and appliances have their own district programmes for televisions, computers, fridges, microwaves and washers, with drop-off sites published separately, so check those pages before a trip.Official guidance
