How refrigerator disposal works in Philadelphia
Philadelphia collects refrigerators, but with a refrigerant rule attached. The Streets Department will pick up a fridge on your trash day, but the Freon must be professionally removed and the unit tagged to certify it first, or the collection truck will not take it. A refrigerator cannot go out as ordinary trash without that step, and setting one out untagged means it is left at the curb.
The requirement is federal. Under EPA Section 608 the refrigerant has to be recovered by a certified technician before any fridge is scrapped, and venting it is illegal. That leaves a Philadelphia resident either paying for a tag and waiting for the trash-day collection, hauling the unit to a sanitation convenience center, or booking a hauler who handles recovery as part of the pickup.
A booked Furniture Disposal Plus pickup skips the tag, the trash-day timing, and the convenience-center run. Your Loaders come to the refrigerator wherever it sits, up from a basement or out of a rowhome kitchen, on a window you choose, often same-day or next-day across Philadelphia ZIP codes. Certified handlers recover the refrigerant and the steel is recycled, and Furniture Disposal Plus serves Philadelphia and the metro from Camden to Upper Darby and Cherry Hill.

Philadelphia refrigerator questions
Refrigerator removal in Philadelphia, common questions
How fast can you pick up a refrigerator in Philadelphia?
Same-day and next-day windows are available across most Philadelphia ZIP codes, from Fishtown and South Philly to Fairmount, University City, and Manayunk. Availability shows when you enter your item and address.
Do I have to use the city trash-day pickup instead?
No. Philadelphia will collect a fridge on trash day only if the Freon is removed and the unit is tagged first. Furniture Disposal Plus carries it out from inside on a window you choose, with one price up front and no tag to arrange.
Do you remove the Freon from the refrigerator?
Yes. Certified handlers recover the refrigerant under EPA Section 608, which the city requires before it will collect a fridge. You never arrange the tag.
Can you get a fridge up from a rowhome basement?
Yes. Your Loaders handle basement stairs, tight turns, and narrow rowhome doorways at no extra charge. Note the access when you book.
