Broken/Unwanted Appliances Collection this Saturday, 5/2/26

Broken/Unwanted Appliances Collection

If you have UNWANTED appliances, please donate them to the Habitat for Humanity store or post them to any of several Facebook groups where you can sell or give away things. If you have broken beyond any reasonable chance of repair appliances, the Rivanna Solid Waste Authority will be glad to take these off your hands for FREE this Saturday, May 2, 8:30am–4:00pm. You are responsible for loading and transporting your broken appliances to the Ivy Solid Waste & Recycling Center which is just a quick 20 minute drive from our neighborhood at 4576 Dick Woods Road, 22903.

If you have just a couple of small items, I can take them for you — first come, first serve while space is available. Write to me at LHNA.cville@gmail.com by Friday, May 1 at 7pm and I’ll make arrangements to pick up your smallish appliances.

If you have to have help loading your things into your vehicle you will need to bring that help with you to the Waste & Recycling Center. Staff are NOT available to help you during this event.

What can you get rid of?

The RSWA will accept refrigerators, freezers, washers, dryers, kitchen stoves, furnaces, water heaters, air conditioners, dehumidifiers, heat pumps, microwaves, vacuum cleaners, and toasters.

Questions? More information about this event can be found on the RSWA’s website.
