How Henderson handles lawn mowers

Henderson, Nevada (Las Vegas metro, #55 nationally) is served by Republic Services of Southern Nevada under franchise agreement, the same provider serving Las Vegas and North Las Vegas. Republic serves over 320,000 Henderson residents across Green Valley, Anthem, Lake Las Vegas, Cadence, Inspirada, MacDonald Ranch, and historic Henderson. Bulk waste is collected bi-weekly (every other week) on the same day as your regular trash and recycling, with strict prep rules: furniture with fabric must be wrapped in plastic, mattresses and box springs must be wrapped in plastic for sanitation, and only one major appliance per service day. Refrigerators and freezers require professional refrigerant removal with certification tag. Solid waste collection is mandatory under Henderson Municipal Code 5.17.220. The Henderson Transfer Station at 560 Cape Horn Drive is open 7 days/week 7 AM-3 PM. This guide covers every disposal option for City of Henderson residents.

The Henderson rule for lawn mowers: Drain gas and oil, then set the mower out on bulk day. Fuel and oil go to an HHW day.

Program basics: Items no longer than 6 feet, in manageable pieces, generally one major appliance per bulk day. At the curb by 6 a.m. on your bulk week collection day, separate from carts, not on private property.

What the city will not take: Refrigerators and anything containing Freon (separate paid appliance pickup), tires, electronics, hazardous waste, construction debris, and items over 6 feet.

How we checked this. The rules on this page were verified in October 2026 against: Republic Services of Southern Nevada (City of Henderson franchise): bulk service and transfer stations. Programs change; confirm fees and limits before you go.

Hazardous and regulated components in Henderson. Henderson and Clark County operate a joint HHW and electronics program with rotating Wednesday to Saturday schedules between two locations. Always confirm which location is open before visiting.

Why lawn mowers are different from ordinary bulk. Fuel and oil are hazardous household waste. A mower set out with gas in the tank will be skipped by most bulk crews and refused by scrap yards, and residual oil leaks onto the truck bed. Draining both takes ten minutes but is the step everyone skips.

Prep checklist before pickup day in Henderson

  • Disconnect the spark plug wire (gas) or remove the battery pack (cordless).
  • Run the tank dry or siphon fuel into an approved can for HHW or an auto parts store.
  • Tip the mower spark plug side up and drain the oil into a pan; take it to an auto parts store.
  • On riders, remove the 12V battery and take it to an auto parts store for free recycling.
  • Fold the handle, leave the gas cap off so crews can see the tank is empty, and set out on the scheduled day.

Three mistakes that get lawn mowers left at the curb:

  • Don't put a mower out with fuel in the tank. It is the number one reason mowers get skipped at the curb and refused at yards.
  • Don't pour old gas or oil down a drain or on the ground. Both go to an HHW facility or an auto parts store.
  • Don't throw a lithium mower battery in the trash. It belongs in a battery recycling bin or at HHW; trash truck fires are increasingly caused by these packs.

Paid pickup is mostly for riding mowers that will not fit a bulk program and have no scrapper nearby.

Self-haul to a scrap yard or transfer station

Free to $20

A push mower fits in any trunk with the handle folded. A rider needs a trailer or ramps into a pickup. Scrap yards take both free; transfer stations charge a small bulky fee.

Drain fluids before loading so nothing spills in the vehicle.

LoadUp paid lawn mower pickup

$80+

For Henderson households needing in-home pickup, items the city won’t accept (unwrapped fabric furniture, non-tagged refrigerators, hazmat), or service when crew labor is needed (heavy items, multiple-piece sets), LoadUp connects you with independent loaders in the Las Vegas metro for upfront-priced pickup.

What’s included: Loading, hauling, and licensed disposal of your lawn mower. No prep needed beyond pointing out what goes.

Pricing: Starts around $80 for a single item; full-truck pickups range from $300 to $600 depending on volume.

Common questions about lawn mower removal in Henderson

Does Henderson pick up lawn mowers for free?

Yes, drained, on your bulk day.

How much does paid lawn mower removal cost in Henderson?

Through the LoadUp marketplace, a single lawn mower pickup in Henderson starts around $80 to $100 with upfront pricing, and full-truck loads run $300 to $600 depending on volume. For Henderson households needing in-home pickup, items the city won’t accept (unwrapped fabric furniture, non-tagged refrigerators, hazmat), or service when crew labor is needed (heavy items, multiple-piece sets), LoadUp connects you with independent loaders in the Las Vegas metro for upfront-priced pickup.

Can I put a lawn mower out with bulk trash?

Push mowers, yes, in most cities, provided the gas and oil are drained. Riding mowers usually exceed bulk weight limits and go to a scrap yard or paid pickup. Check your city’s rule in the directory below.

How do I drain the gas and oil?

Run the mower until it stalls or siphon the tank into an approved gas can. Then tip the mower with the spark plug side up and drain the oil through the fill tube into a pan, or remove the drain plug underneath. Take both to an auto parts store or HHW facility.

Will a scrap yard pay for a lawn mower?

A few dollars for a push mower, more for a rider. The aluminum engine block has the most value. Many people find the free pickup more useful than the payout.

What do I do with the battery from a riding mower?

It is a 12V lead-acid battery accepted free at any auto parts store, often with a core credit, and at HHW facilities. Never put it in the trash.

Is this Henderson page maintained?

Yes. Freemoval maintains this page as a public resource alongside the full Henderson guide. We update it when programs change rules, fees, or contact methods. Last updated October 2026. If you find outdated information, let us know.
