Scrap metal and appliances

Accepted with preparation

The district takes scrap metal and appliances by appointment at the Canton Recycle Center for residents of Stark, Tuscarawas and Wayne counties.

City cost & eligibility
The district publishes no price for a scrap metal or appliance drop off, so book the appointment and confirm the terms on 800-678-9839 before loading a vehicle.
When & how
Schedule the appointment through the district website or on 800-678-9839, then deliver the metal during the appointment window.
Get it ready
Empty the appliance of food and debris, drain refrigerant from a unit that holds it and have it tagged by a certified technician before it is handed over, and keep scrap metal out of the carts and off a bulk pile unless the hauler has confirmed it as a bulk item.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

Report a bulk item 48 hours ahead

Every bulk item has to be reported to Kimble before it is collected, and the request has to be submitted at least 48 hours before the scheduled pickup day, with the item at the curb on that day. Bulk items should weigh no more than 50 pounds, and bulk pickups are typically done on the first trash pickup of the month.

A cooling unit needs a refrigerant tag first

A refrigerator, freezer, air conditioner, humidifier, dehumidifier or water cooler has to have its refrigerant removed and tagged by a certified technician before any bulk pickup is scheduled, and the item still has to be reported to Kimble beforehand. The district's appointment drop off also takes appliances and scrap metal where the unit does not qualify as a bulk item.

City of Wooster through its exclusive contract with Kimble Recycling and Disposal, with the Stark-Tuscarawas-Wayne Joint Solid Waste District for drop off

Request a bulk item pickup from the hauler

A Wooster household with a mattress, box spring, piece of furniture, appliance or house fixture that will not fit a cart.

Cost & conditions
The hauler says many customers are permitted one bulk item per month at no extra charge while a service level without bulk pickup pays for it, and no Wooster rate is published, so call 800-201-0005 and confirm whether the pickup is included and what anything beyond the allowance costs.
Arrange it
Call Kimble at 800-201-0005 or submit the bulk request form at least 48 hours before the scheduled trash day, report every item, and set it at the curb on that day.

Each item should weigh no more than 50 pounds, an unreported item is not collected, a unit holding refrigerant needs a certified technician's tag first, and the free item a month applies to some service levels rather than all of them.

Check local arrangements

City of Wooster through its exclusive contract with Kimble Recycling and Disposal, with the Stark-Tuscarawas-Wayne Joint Solid Waste District for drop off

Use the recycling district appointment drop off

A Wooster household with electronics, scrap metal, appliances, tires, household hazardous waste or a volume of cardboard, all of which the carts will not take.

Cost & conditions
The district publishes the accepted items and the tire limit but no price for a drop off, so book the appointment and confirm the terms on 800-678-9839 before loading a vehicle.
Arrange it
Book an appointment through the district website or on 800-678-9839, note what has to be brought, and deliver the material during the appointment window.

The drop off is open to residents of Stark, Tuscarawas and Wayne counties, latex paint is excluded from the hazardous waste list, tires are limited to passenger and light truck sizes at 10 per person per year, and any item the district cannot take has to be handled another way.

Check local arrangements

Taking it somewhere yourself?

A Wooster household that hauls its own material works through the Stark-Tuscarawas-Wayne Joint Solid Waste District rather than through a city transfer station. The district takes appliances, electronics, household hazardous waste with latex paint excluded, recycling that covers cardboard, paper, metal cans, glass and plastic bottles and jugs, scrap metal, and tires in passenger and light truck sizes limited to 10 per person per year, all at the Canton Recycle Center by appointment for residents of the three counties, booked on 800-678-9839. The district also lists Paradise Composting II at 4300 Mechanicsburg Rd in Wooster, on 330-669-3141, as a Wayne County compost site that can accept food waste, and a construction and demolition landfill in Rittman for project debris. The hauler's own transfer and recycling facility in Canton is listed by the district on 330-343-1226. No public page read here publishes a price for any of those drop offs, so the charge is confirmed when the appointment is booked.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

Scrap metal removal, from your photo request to the pickup plan in Wooster.

How do I request a scrap metal pickup quote?

Text photos to (844) 879-0892 with your ZIP code, approximate amount and access details. Show the whole pile and a closer view of the material. Our team will confirm the scope, quote and scheduling.

Do you buy scrap metal or pick it up for free?

This is a request for a paid removal quote, not a scrap-buying or free-collection offer. If you want to sell metal, ask a local recycler about its accepted materials and delivery requirements.

How much does scrap metal removal cost?

This service uses a custom quote. Send photos, the approximate amount, your ZIP code and access details. Our team confirms the scope and price before booking; there is no fixed-price catalog item for this pile.

Can you collect it today?

Tell our team your preferred day when you request the quote. Timing depends on the material, amount and access, and is confirmed with your quote. Sending photos does not reserve same-day pickup.

Where does scrap metal go in Wooster?

To the Stark-Tuscarawas-Wayne Joint Solid Waste District, which lists scrap metal and appliances among the items taken at the Canton Recycle Center by appointment for residents of the three counties on 800-678-9839. A metal item that qualifies as a bulk item can also be requested from Kimble at 800-201-0005 at least 48 hours before the scheduled trash day, and a unit that holds refrigerant has to be drained and tagged by a certified technician first.Official guidance
