Scrap metal removal in Greenwood: start with the item’s collection rules, then choose the arrangement that fits.

Reviewed · Sources below

White goods and household bulk

Accepted with preparation

Furniture, appliances, electronics and other items that do not fit the green roll cart go out as white goods, in their own pile, on the monthly collection for the address.

City cost & eligibility
The city publishes no fee for the curbside white goods collection, so confirm the load and any charge with the Sanitation Division on 864-942-8436 before the pile goes out.
When & how
White goods are collected at the curb with the monthly curbside programme for the address, and the city's zone map sets the week. Keep white goods in their own pile, separate from leaves and from limbs and clippings, because the different streams ride different trucks.
Get it ready
Place the items loosely at the curb, because bagged items are not collected, keep the pile three feet clear of mailboxes, utility poles and cars, and keep the whole set-out to no more than five cubic yards. Remove the doors from every appliance or cabinet for child safety, and call 864-942-8436 about a larger clean-out, because the city can supply a dump trailer instead.

Scrap metal and large metal items

Special rules apply

Large metal appliances ride the white goods collection, while plain scrap metal is named nowhere, so a metal load has to be confirmed.

City cost & eligibility
The city lists large metal appliances inside its bulk waste and collections guidance but publishes no separate scrap metal stream or fee, so confirm the item and any charge with the Sanitation Division on 864-942-8436.
When & how
If the metal is accepted, it goes out with the white goods pile in the monthly rotation for the address, and anything the city refuses travels to the Greenwood County Landfill or a county convenience center.
Get it ready
Drain fuel and fluids from mowers and similar equipment and remove doors where the item has them. Keep propane tanks, gas cans, oil drums, paint and other liquid or compressed gas containers off the pile, because those are refused, and keep construction material and contractor debris separate as well.

The handoff matters

Right item.
Right place.

Three piles, none of them bagged, all under five cubic yards

Greenwood collects the curbside set-out in separate streams, so one pile holds limbs and clippings, another holds fallen leaves for the vacuum truck, and a third holds white goods such as furniture, appliances and electronics. Piles stay loose, because bagged items are not collected at all, and they sit at least three feet from mailboxes, utility poles and cars so the loaders can work safely. The whole set-out, all piles together, is expected to stay within five cubic yards, and a larger clean-out is a conversation with the city on 864-942-8436 rather than a bigger pile.

What the city will not take, and where it goes instead

Mattresses, box springs, tires and construction waste are refused at the curb, along with stumps and oversized branches, loose paper and cardboard, food waste and other lightweight rubbish that belongs in a roll cart. Batteries, antifreeze, brake fluid, motor oil, paint, fuel and oil drums, propane and oxygen tanks, railroad ties, bricks, shingles and concrete blocks are all refused as well, and so is anything left behind by a hired contractor. The city's instruction is to take those items to the Greenwood County Landfill or a county convenience center, with landfill questions on 864-942-8627.

A dump trailer is the route for a whole house clean-out

The city offers a utility trailer at no charge to its own residential solid waste customers for a large clean-up done by the homeowner, and the trailer takes yard waste and ordinary household project debris but never construction material. The owner has to review and sign the dump trailer agreement through the public service request form, be present when the trailer is delivered, and reserve it on 864-942-8434. If a landscaper or builder is doing the work, that contractor removes everything the job produces.

City of Greenwood Public Works Sanitation Division with the Greenwood County Landfill

Put the load out for the monthly curbside collection

A Greenwood household with furniture, appliances, electronics or yard waste that fits the monthly set-out.

Cost & conditions
The city publishes no fee for the curbside programme, so confirm the load and any charge with the Sanitation Division on 864-942-8436.
Arrange it
Check the zone map for the collection week, then put the load out loosely in separate piles at least three feet from mailboxes, poles and cars, with the whole set-out under five cubic yards.

Mattresses, box springs, tires, construction material, compressed gas and liquid containers, loose paper and cardboard, and anything a contractor generates are refused, bagged material is not collected, and the city will skip a mixed pile.

See the curbside rules

City of Greenwood Public Works Sanitation Division with the Greenwood County Landfill

Take refused items to the county landfill or a convenience center

A household with items the curbside programme refuses, such as batteries, paint, motor oil, tanks, bricks or a load a contractor left behind.

Cost & conditions
The city gives the county landfill phone number and website without publishing county disposal rates, so confirm the accepted material and the charge with the Greenwood County Landfill on 864-942-8627.
Arrange it
Call the Greenwood County Landfill on 864-942-8627 or check the county website before loading, then take the material to the landfill or a county convenience center.

The city publishes no fee for the county sites and no list of what each one takes, and the county pages were not readable in this run, so the site has to be called rather than assumed.

See the refused item list

Taking it somewhere yourself?

Greenwood runs its own curbside programme rather than a city drop-off yard, so self haul means one of three things. A household with a large clean-out done by its own hands can ask the city for a no charge utility trailer, reserved on 864-942-8434, which takes yard waste and household project debris but never construction material. Items the curbside programme refuses, including mattresses, box springs, tires, batteries, paint, motor oil, propane and oxygen tanks, bricks, shingles and concrete blocks, are the resident's responsibility, and the city directs them to the Greenwood County Landfill or a county convenience center on 864-942-8627. Anything else waits for the monthly curbside rotation for the address, set out loosely in separate piles at least three feet from mailboxes, poles and cars, and no larger than five cubic yards in total.

Before you book

A few things
worth knowing.

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

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.

What counts as white goods in Greenwood?

Furniture and appliances, including electronics, air conditioners, dishwashers, washing machines and dryers, freezers, refrigerators, kitchen stoves, water heaters, trash compactors, microwave ovens and induction cookers, plus other items that do not fit in the green roll cart. They go out loosely in their own pile, three feet clear of mailboxes, poles and cars, with the whole set-out under five cubic yards and the doors removed from any appliance.Official guidance

Will Greenwood take scrap metal at the curb?

The city's guidance puts large metal appliances inside bulk waste and lists appliances and other oversized household items as white goods, but it names no separate scrap metal stream. Call the Sanitation Division on 864-942-8436 and confirm the load first, and if the city will not take it, the city's own direction is to use the Greenwood County Landfill or a county convenience center on 864-942-8627.Official guidance

Who collects yard waste and bulk items in Greenwood?

The City of Greenwood Public Works Sanitation Division collects yard waste, loose leaves and white goods at the curb on a monthly rotation, and answers on 864-942-8436. The city also lends dump trailers to its own residential solid waste customers for large clean-outs, reserved on 864-942-8434, and it sends anything it will not collect to the Greenwood County Landfill or a county convenience center.Official guidance

Why would Greenwood skip a curbside pile?

Because mixed or non-conforming piles are skipped. Yard waste has to be loose rather than bagged, leaves have to be in their own pile for the vacuum truck, white goods have to be separate from both, limbs cannot exceed the flyer's maximum of six inches wide and six feet long, and the whole set-out should stay within five cubic yards. Mattresses, box springs, tires, construction material and anything a contractor generates are refused outright.Official guidance
