Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Appliance removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Madison.
How much does appliance removal cost in Madison?+
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 Madison?+
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.
Does Madison collect household appliances?+
Listed appliances can use the city’s large-item process. Your recycling provider affects the charge: city recycling customers fund this through their municipal bill, while privately served customers pay applicable item charges.Official guidance
How do I prepare a refrigerator for Madison collection?+
Remove its doors and identify the refrigerator in the large-item work order. Refrigerator size and whether the city collects your recycling affect the charge; check the city form before arranging collection.Official guidance
Does city bulk collection cover every Madison apartment building?+
No. Properties with more than eight units are excluded from city large-item collection. Confirm arrangements with your building manager or private provider. Eligible residents can still review the city’s drop-off requirements.Official guidance
Why might my neighbor have different appliance charges?+
Madison ties listed appliance charges to recycling service. City recycling customers pay the monthly Resource Recovery Special Charge; customers with private recycling pay applicable item charges when using the city route.Official guidance
