From $12 per metal item collected at the curb, with metal items free to drop off at the Recycling Drop-Off Center. Framingham household scheduling a curbside pickup, or a resident holding a current drop-off permit; the curbside service fee is added on top of the disposal fee.
When & how
Metal items are collected at the curb on Wednesday and accepted at the center during its published hours.
Get it ready
Remove non-metal attachments where you can, and keep small sharp metal out of the trash. Ferrous and non-ferrous metals are on the Massachusetts waste ban list, so they cannot go in the household trash.

Right place.

Pay and tag before the collection day

Framingham collects bulky items only by appointment and only after payment. Schedule through the city permitting portal or at the Operations Center or drop-off center, pay by cash, check or online, and put the tagged item at the curb by 7 a.m. on the assigned day because staff cannot enter private property.

Bulky item categories, fees and collection days

Use the right collection day for the material

Soft goods such as couches go out on Tuesday, and metal items, mattresses, televisions, Freon appliances, carpets and tires go out on Wednesday. Setting a category out on the wrong day means the crew will not take it.
