How can I dispose of junk, old appliances or scrap metal?
To dispose of old appliances and large metal items, place them separately at the curb and call (727) 562-4920 for special pick up. Please drain hot water heaters and remove or secure all doors on refrigerators and freezers. Have all refrigerants removed from refrigerators, freezers, and air conditioners by a professional before placing at curb. Junk, furniture, and other bulk items can be placed in their own pile at the curb on your collection day. Smaller items (dishes, clothing, etc.) should be bagged. Before putting unwanted items out at the curb, check Pinellas County’s handy new web guide to find out how to get rid of over 150 items. You’ll find convenient, local options to reuse or recycle items, instead of throwing them away.
