Responsible BBQ grill recycling and regulations
Disposing of a barbecue isn't as simple as leaving it at the curb. Many grills contain scrap metal that should be repurposed or hazardous materials that are harmful to the environment if left in a landfill. Because regulations vary by city and state—with many regions banning appliances from regular waste—our team ensures your items are disposed of according to local guidelines.
We prioritize sustainability by recycling and donating as much as possible to give old items a new life. Our all-inclusive service makes the process completely hassle-free, ensuring your old grill is handled with the planet in mind.
How much does BBQ grill disposal cost?
The cost of grill removal depends on the space your items take up in our truck.
For a single BBQ, check the "single item" section on our pricing page to see if estimated rates are available in your neighborhood.
If you are clearing out multiple items at once, we use volume-based pricing.

Frequently asked questions
How should I dispose of an old grill?
If your grill is broken, the best approach is to remove the propane tank and disassemble the components for recycling. If you are short on time or unsure how to handle the materials safely, 1-800-GOT-JUNK? can manage the entire process for you.
Can 1-800-GOT-JUNK? haul my BBQ from my back porch or deck?
Yes, we definitely can! We’ll pick up your BBQ from wherever it’s located and load it into the truck–all you have to do is point.
Do I need to do anything before 1-800-GOT-JUNK? arrives?
Nope! We’re a full-service junk removal company, which means you don’t have to worry about moving your items outside or to the curb before we arrive. We’ll pick up your items and handle all the lifting and loading–we’ll even sweep up when we’re done.
What happens to my BBQ after you pick it up?
Once we collect your BBQ, we assess whether it can be donated or recycled. Recyclable parts are taken to local recycling facilities or transfer stations to help keep waste out of landfills and reduce environmental impact.
What do I do with old gasoline tanks?
Before you get rid of your old grill or BBQ, you’ll need to remove the propane tank. While 1-800-GOT-JUNK? can safely remove your old grill and other components, we’re often not able to remove old propane tanks.
Many recycling depots, transfer stations, and landfills accept old propane tanks for disposal. It’s best to check with your local recycling center first, as rules vary by location. If recycling isn’t an option, you may need to drop it off at a transfer station or landfill.
How do I remove propane tanks from my BBQ?
Since we may not be able to remove propane tanks for you, we ask that you ensure the propane tank is fully disconnected before we remove it. Here are some tips on how to safely remove your propane tank:
- Make sure your propane grill is turned off.
- For a refillable tank, close the tank valve (turn it all the way to the right, or clockwise). Small disposable propane tanks don’t usually have valves, so you can simply unscrew the tank to remove it.
- Once the valve is shut, twist off the threaded pressure regulator.
- Remove the tank from the grill. (It may be secured with a bolt or screw—simply remove this to separate the tank.)
- Place your tank in a safe spot—do not store it indoors, even if it’s empty!
How do you move a grill by yourself?
Grills are heavy and difficult to move safely. Save your time (and your back) by letting 1-800-GOT-JUNK? handle everything for you.
Can you throw a grill in the trash?
No, you shouldn’t throw a grill in the trash. Most garbage trucks won’t take them, and grills often contain hazardous materials–like propane tanks or electrical components–that require special handling.
Grills also contain valuable metal parts that can be recycled, keeping unnecessary waste out of the landfill.
Don’t just take our word for it
Real customer reviews, typos and all ;)
Markel and Will came out and were amazing! They helped get rid of some hard stuff that we had trouble moving. They were super friendly and very professional and we would love for them to come back and help again when we need to get rid of some more junk in the future.
Antonio and Kevin were great to work with! They came out on a cold snowy evening and were so professional and kind! They were quick and hauled away items from our basement and other yard items. We were calling places to compare prices and they were the most responsive and fair company!
I needed some stuff picked up late on a Friday and 1-800-GOT-JUNK was able to make it happen in less than an hour. Holly showed up and loaded the truck up in no time at all. If you need something picked up with no hassle, give them a call.
