Refrigerator removal in Weymouth, MA

How Weymouth handles white goods

Since October 1, 2026, residents can schedule bulky items and white goods/metal items through the Capitol Waste Services website, or call Capitol Waste at 855-533-3400. White goods and metal items are collected on your regular trash and recycling day. The limit is four items total per collection, shared with bulky items. A fridge, a washer, a dryer and a sofa already fill it.

The notice gives no fee, no notice period and no refrigerant instructions, so ask the call center when you book. The DPW at 120 Winter Street does not list appliances among what it takes, so you cannot drop a refrigerator there. Checked November 2026.

Before you book a pickup

A working second fridge may be worth selling or donating. The Habitat ReStore in West Roxbury lists appliances among its donated items, though it asks you to confirm current needs. A fridge that no longer cools is scrap.

Empty it, unplug it a day ahead so the ice melts, put towels at the base and tape the doors shut. Measure the doorway and the turn at the stairs. Basement fridges in older Weymouth Capes and colonials are common, and the bulkhead or back stairs are usually the tight part.

Our price and what is included

Large appliances, meaning a refrigerator, chest freezer or double oven, are $149 with refrigerant recovery included. A standard appliance (washer, dryer, stove, dishwasher) is $119, and a mini fridge or window AC is $79. The minimum is $159, so a lone fridge costs $149, and adding a washer brings the pair to $268. We carry from the kitchen, basement or garage with straps and dollies and protect the floors. There is no four-item limit with us.

Clearing a refrigerator in Weymouth, in order
