Northwest Arkansas covers two distinct cities with different waste programs. Fayetteville runs a city-operated Pay-As-You-Throw system with 1 free curbside bulky-waste pickup per year plus 4 free Transfer Station drop-offs. Bentonville uses Republic Services with appointment-based bulk pickup (fees may apply). Both cities have strong recycling programs and are served by Habitat for Humanity of Northwest Arkansas for donations. This guide covers disposal options for both cities.
The Fayetteville / Bentonville rule for grills: The grill is a metal item for the Wednesday scheduled collection. The propane tank goes to the county HHW facility or an exchange.

At the curb at least 4 feet from any other object, not in the road or under trees, power lines, or near mailboxes, cars, and fences. Nothing mixed with other waste.
What the city will not take: Tires (up to 5 per household with rims removed are accepted at the Ann Street Landfill), electronics (computers, TVs, printers, stereos), and hazardous waste.
How we checked this. The rules on this page were verified in October 2026 against: City of Fayetteville Solid Waste: Bulky Items. Programs change; confirm fees and limits before you go.
Why grills are different from ordinary bulk. The propane tank is the entire problem. Even an 'empty' 20-pound tank holds residual gas under pressure and can rupture in a compactor. Trash and bulk crews are trained to refuse grills with tanks attached, and a tank left on the grill is the main reason grills get skipped.
Three mistakes that get grills left at the curb:
Paid options are mostly for built-in grills and heavy ceramic kamado cookers.
Self-haul to a scrap yard or transfer station
Free to $20A cart grill fits in an SUV with the lid off and legs folded. Scrap yards take it free; transfer stations charge a small bulky fee. Take the tank to a separate drop-off.
Ceramic kamado grills have no scrap value and go to a transfer station; the steel bands and cart are scrap.

Can I put a gas grill out with bulk trash?
Yes in most cities, once the propane tank is removed. Some cities also ask for the grill to be clean of grease. Check your city’s rule in the directory below.
What do I do with the propane tank?
Take it to a tank exchange cage (trade for a full one), a propane dealer or hardware store that accepts old tanks, or a household hazardous waste facility. Never put it in the trash or at the curb, even if it feels empty.
Will a scrap yard take a grill?
Yes, free, and stainless grills often pay. The tank must be off; most yards refuse tanks unless the valve has been removed, and many refuse them entirely.
Can I donate a used grill?
Working gas grills that are cleaned are accepted by some ReStores and move instantly on free listings in spring and summer. Thrift stores generally do not accept grills. Include the regulator and hose, not the tank.
