The published appliance route is the free Spring Clean Up Day, where major appliances are accepted when tagged as coolant or Freon free.
City cost & eligibility
No charge. Paducah and McCracken County residents at the free Spring Clean Up Day, which takes major appliances tagged as coolant or Freon free; outside the event the city publishes no appliance rate, so a household should ask Public Works about a pay pile or a special collection.
When & how
Take the appliance to the Spring Clean Up Day at the Republic Services transfer station, 829 Burnett Street, which in 2026 ran on Saturday April 18 from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m., and bring identification to prove residency.
Get it ready
Have the unit tagged as coolant or Freon free before the event, empty and clean it, secure or remove the doors, and keep appliances out of the rollout container because unlisted material outside the container is not collected without an arranged special pickup.
City containers, early mornings and four feet of clearance
Paducah residential solid waste costs 28.00 a month for one rollout and includes yard waste collection and curbside recycling for households that sign up, with fees on the monthly water bill. Only city-issued containers are serviced, crews run from 4 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. on residential and commercial routes, and containers must be out by 4 a.m. on the collection day, so the city recommends setting them out the night before. Collection runs Tuesday through Friday with recycling the same day, and holidays may push a route to Monday. Containers go within two feet of the roadside edge with handles facing away from the street, and the side-arm truck cannot service a container with a stationary object such as a car, mailbox, utility pole, tree, shrub or fence within four feet. Overfilled containers may interrupt service, and contents such as paint, gasoline, solvents, oil, batteries, tires, bricks, blocks and construction material stop the collection altogether.
Anything that will not fit the container, including furniture, is a pay pile. The items go adjacent to the street rather than in an alley, and the person named on the water bill calls Public Works on 270-444-8511 to report the pile. A Public Works supervisor then reviews it and assigns a fee that depends on the size of the pile and how much of the knuckleboom truck it fills, with a minimum charge added to the water bill, and collection happens on Thursdays and Fridays. If the pile is refused for a rule violation, a Call Back service before the next scheduled date carries an additional fee.
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.
A Paducah household with furniture, a mattress or other items that will not fit the city rollout container.
Cost & conditions
From $25 for minimum fee for a pay pile, added to the water bill, with the amount set by a supervisor based on the size of the pile and how much of the knuckleboom truck it fills. City of Paducah residential accounts, with the person named on the water bill making the call to Public Works on 270-444-8511.
Arrange it
Place the items adjacent to the street rather than in an alley, call Public Works on 270-444-8511, wait for the supervisor's review and fee call, and leave the pile out for collection on a Thursday or Friday.
The fee is assigned rather than quoted up front and starts at the published minimum, hazardous material, tires, bricks, blocks and construction material cannot be included, and a refused pile needs a paid Call Back before the next scheduled date.
A Paducah or McCracken County household with appliances, tires, e-scrap, batteries, household chemicals, medications or household trash to clear out.

Arrange it
Take the material to the Republic Services transfer station at 829 Burnett Street on the event day, which in 2026 ran on Saturday April 18 from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m., rain or shine.

City of Paducah residential accounts, with the fee included on the monthly water bill and a published fee schedule effective July 1 2026.

Self hauling in Paducah runs through the Compost Facility and the annual Spring Clean Up Day, because the city's own trucks handle the routine work and the pay pile route is a request rather than a drop-off. Residents can take brush, leaves, grass clippings and a stripped Christmas tree to the Compost Facility at 1560 North 8th Street at no charge, checking that facility's page for its hours, while a yard pile larger than a small car or a load of large limbs, stumps and trunks needs a request to Public Works on 270-444-8511 or through the MyPaducah Brush Pickup option and may carry a fee of 150, with some pieces too large for the compost grinder and possibly not collected. Once a year the city and McCracken County hold a free Spring Clean Up Day at the Republic Services transfer station at 829 Burnett Street, which in 2026 ran on Saturday April 18 from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. for residents who bring identification; it accepts household trash, major appliances tagged coolant or Freon free, up to eight tires per resident, household hazardous waste that is labelled and in its original container, ammunition, prescription medications, batteries and e-scrap, while refusing medical waste, commercial waste and radioactive items. Households that cannot use the event can still ask Public Works about a pay pile, which starts at the published minimum fee, is added to the water bill and is collected on Thursdays and Fridays by knuckleboom truck after a supervisor reviews the pile.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Appliance removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Paducah.
How much does appliance removal cost in Paducah?+
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 Paducah?+
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 Paducah appliances go?+
The published route is the free Spring Clean Up Day for Paducah and McCracken County residents, where major appliances are accepted provided they are tagged as coolant or Freon free.

What does a Paducah pay pile cost?+
There is a minimum fee for a pay pile, added to the water bill, and the final amount depends on the size of the pile and how much of the knuckleboom truck it fills. A supervisor reviews the pile after the person named on the water bill calls Public Works on 270-444-8511, and then calls back to explain the fee. Piles are collected on Thursdays and Fridays, must sit adjacent to the street rather than in an alley, and cannot include hazardous material, tires, bricks, blocks or construction material.Official guidance
