Free Appliance Disposal for Montgomery County Residents

By Leave a Comment

url-7Having trouble getting rid of that old refrigerator, air conditioner, water heater or stove? Montgomery County Environmental Services will dispose of your old appliances free of charge on June 5, 6 and 7 as part of our Appliance Amnesty program.

This free appliance disposal program is available for all Montgomery County residents, and is sponsored by the Montgomery County Solid Waste District. Montgomery County Environmental Services offers special disposal programs to prevent illegal dumping, promote recycling, and protect our soil and waterways from pollution or contamination.
Residents can bring their appliances to the Montgomery County Solid Waste Transfer Facilities, where licensed technicians will remove any refrigerant, such as Freon™, free of charge. Metal components will be recycled rather than placed in a landfill. Microwaves, small countertop appliances or outdoor grills are not accepted as part of this program, but these items will be accepted for a nominal fee. imgres

Appliances are accepted at the Montgomery County Solid Waste Transfer Stations, located at 1001 Encrete Lane in Moraine, Ohio or 6589 Old Webster St. in Vandalia, Ohio. Appliances are accepted during the following times:

June 5 & 6 from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m.
June 7 from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Montgomery County Environmental Services accepts appliances throughout the year for a small fee. For additional information, call (937) 225-4999, 7:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m., Monday – Friday.

County to Host Tire BuyBack

Tires.previewOn September 21, Montgomery County Environmental Services will host a tire buyback event. Residents can earn $2 for every scrap/used tire they bring, up to a maximum of 10 tires per vehicle. All tires brought to the buyback event will be recycled.

Scrap tires can create health and safety hazards, pollute the environment, and become neighborhood eyesores if they are not properly stored or discarded. “Montgomery County and other jurisdictions invest a lot of time and resources into cleaning up illegal dumping sites and scrap tires,” said Montgomery County Commission President Dan Foley. “With this event, we encourage citizens to pick up tires from dump sites or bring in their own used tires to be recycled, which will reduce the cost of cleaning up dump sites now and in the future.”
