Appliances and refrigerators: what Topeka takes
No item-specific rule turned up for appliances and refrigerators on the official Topeka pages, so the general bulky item rules below apply.
Under federal rules, the refrigerant in household fridges, freezers and window air conditioners must be recovered before the appliance is scrapped or landfilled, and the last site in the chain must keep a signed statement saying who recovered it and when (EPA Section 608). That is why sites near Topeka may ask for proof before they accept a fridge.
How pickup works in Topeka
In Topeka the county runs trash service, and each home can set out one large item a week on refuse day for free. That covers a couch, a mattress, 15 bags of leaves or a bundle of limbs. Metal items such as appliances are different: they must be booked by phone and cost at least $65.
The schedule, set-out and limit rules don't single out appliances and refrigerators; they follow the general bulky item rules.
