Appliance Recycling in Kokomo, Indiana
$79 Flat Rate for Single Items
Getting rid of an old refrigerator, washer, dryer, or stove comes down to five options: city bulk pickup (free but restricted), retailer haul-away (free–$50 with a new purchase), self-haul to a recycling center ($30–80), curbside pickup through Dropcurb ($104, same day), or traditional junk removal ($200–600+). Appliance disposal is more regulated than furniture because of refrigerants, oils, and heavy metals.

Does Kokomo pick up appliances?
Most cities accept appliances for bulk pickup, but policies on Freon-containing units (refrigerators, freezers, AC units) vary significantly. Some cities require you to hire a licensed technician to remove refrigerant before pickup — which can cost $50–150 on its own. Others handle it as part of their recycling program.

Kokomo's bulk pickup program: it doesn't exist.
Oakbrook and West Side residents must source private pickup entirely. When furniture needs disposal, you're researching companies and comparing quotes instead of making one simple call.

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.
