What happens to your exercise equipment after pickup

Exercise equipment is primarily recycled for scrap metal — treadmills, ellipticals, and weight machines contain significant amounts of steel, aluminum, and copper. Motors from treadmills and ellipticals are separated for copper recovery. Plastic housings and rubber components are processed separately. Equipment in working condition may be donated to community centers, schools, or resold through secondhand fitness equipment dealers. Non-functional equipment is broken down at scrap facilities.

Why High Point residents choose Dropcurb for exercise equipment removal

High Point's free weekly pickup is solid for most bulky items — but it won't take contractor debris, and you can't control timing. When you need specific items removed on your schedule, Dropcurb's $79 same-day pickup fills the gap. At $55-$180 for local haulers, Dropcurb offers transparent per-item pricing with no in-home estimates.
