Every route for a dishwasher in Jacksonville, checked in October 2026 against the city’s current rules and the drop-off sites named. The full Jacksonville guide covers every other item.
Here is how each route works in Jacksonville, starting with the city program and ending with paid pickup.
Jacksonville curbside household bulk collection: dishwashers
Free, with a step firstSchedule it as an appliance pickup through 630-CITY. Uninstall first.
Who qualifies: Houses with City of Jacksonville residential collection. Apartment complexes are commercial accounts and use their own haulers.
How to schedule: No appointment for ordinary bulk. In areas without automated carts (City and Meridian Waste areas) bulk is collected weekly with garbage; in automated-cart areas (Waste Pro) it is every other week. Appliances and tires are the exception: schedule those by calling 630-CITY (904-630-2489) or at myjax.custhelp.com.
Limits: 5 cubic yards per week, about 30 full 32-gallon bags. Tires are limited to 4 standard vehicle tires per scheduled pickup.
Set-out: Curbside between 5 p.m. the day before and 6 a.m. on collection day, at least 3 feet from carts and away from mailboxes and cars.
Donation pickup in Jacksonville (usable dishwashers)
FreeJacksonville’s donation programs accept items in good usable condition: clean upholstered furniture without significant tears or stains, working appliances less than 10 years old, mattresses in good condition (subject to program-specific rules), kitchenware, lamps, and most household goods.
Items typically not accepted: damaged or stained furniture, mattresses with bedbug history or significant wear, appliances that don’t work, particle-board furniture in poor condition, cribs (federal safety regulations have changed), and exercise equipment that requires reassembly. Always call before scheduling if you’re unsure, pickups that find unacceptable items will leave them behind.
Freemoval (free pickups through partner organizations)
FreeFreemoval funds free junk removal and cleanouts for households referred by trusted partner organizations, such as nonprofits, housing programs, and senior services. Families don’t apply directly. A partner submits the request and vouches for the need.
Status in Jacksonville: Not yet available. Freemoval currently serves metro Atlanta and plans to expand nationwide.
How it works where it operates: One free pickup per household, covering dishwashers, furniture, appliances, and bulk household items within standard LoadUp marketplace service. Funded by LoadUp customer round-ups and direct contributions, spent at standard LoadUp rates.
If you run a nonprofit or housing program in Jacksonville: you can start the conversation now through the For partners page.
Jacksonville is the largest city by land area in the contiguous United States, 757 square miles, and that scale shapes how trash collection works here. Bulk pickup is weekly with no appointment needed for most items, but appliances and tires require scheduling. This page walks through every option in order from free to paid, with the specific rules that apply across Duval County.
The Jacksonville rule for dishwashers: Schedule it as an appliance pickup through 630-CITY. Uninstall first.
Program basics: 5 cubic yards per week, about 30 full 32-gallon bags. Tires are limited to 4 standard vehicle tires per scheduled pickup. Curbside between 5 p.m. the day before and 6 a.m. on collection day, at least 3 feet from carts and away from mailboxes and cars.
What the city will not take: Household hazardous waste of any kind (illegal in the residential stream under city code), appliances and tires without a scheduled pickup, and anything from a business.
How we checked this. The rules on this page were verified in October 2026 against: City of Jacksonville Solid Waste: Service Standards, City of Jacksonville Solid Waste Collection Quick Reference Guide, City of Jacksonville: Household Hazardous Waste Facility. Programs change; confirm fees and limits before you go.
Why dishwashers are different from ordinary bulk. Dishwashers are usually replaced as part of a kitchen project, which means the old one often ends up sitting in a garage because nobody planned its exit. Because they are lighter than other appliances, two people can carry one to the curb, but the uninstall involves three connections (power, water, drain) and any of them done wrong can flood a cabinet.
Three mistakes that get dishwashers left at the curb:
Paid options are rarely needed for a dishwasher alone, but they make sense when it is part of a larger kitchen cleanout or when nobody is available to carry it.
Self-haul to a transfer station
Free to $20A dishwasher fits in most SUVs with the seats down. County transfer stations accept it as an appliance or bulky item, sometimes with a small fee.
Lay a tarp down. Even a drained dishwasher drips from the sump for a day.

For households who need same-week service or live in apartment buildings over 4 units, LoadUp offers professional removal in Jacksonville with upfront pricing.

Can a dishwasher go out with bulk trash?
In most cities, yes. Dishwashers are usually treated as a standard large item or a non-refrigerant appliance. Confirm the local rule in the directory below and whether a separate appliance appointment is required.
Does a dishwasher contain refrigerant or anything hazardous?
No. Dishwashers have no refrigerant and no regulated components. Some older models have a small mercury-free float switch and a capacitor; both are routine for recyclers.
How do I disconnect a built-in dishwasher?
Turn off the breaker and confirm power is off. Shut the hot water stop under the sink and disconnect the supply line. Disconnect the drain hose at the disposal or air gap. Remove the kick plate, open the junction box, and disconnect the wires (or unplug it if corded). Remove the two mounting screws under the counter and slide the unit out onto a towel.
How much does a dishwasher weigh?
Most 24-inch built-ins weigh 60 to 90 pounds. Stainless-tub models are at the upper end. Portable units with a wood top run 90 to 120 pounds.
