Appliances & Other Large Metal Items


Appliances and large metal items are banned from the trash. Non-working appliances must be recycled. Working appliances should be donated for reuse if possible, or recycled if donation is not possible. Usable metal items such as exercise equipment, metal shelving, file cabinets, metal furniture, etc. should similarly be donated and recycled if not. Metal recycling options are listed below. For donation options for usable appliances, furniture, etc., see Usable Items to Get Rid Of.
