If you missed the dumpsters last month…

The City of Asheville will collect large items and appliances for the part of the Village that’s located in the city. Because of the availability and low cost (or in most cases, no cost) of this service, we may discontinue the practice of ordering dumpsters privately for the neighborhood. (Hillcrest and Lake residents, please contact the Enka Village Commission for options for disposal of your large items.)

Here’s the information from the City’s Web site:
Appliances
The City of Asheville collects appliances such as stoves, ovens, refrigerators, freezers, dishwashers, washers, dryers, air conditioners, trash compactors and hot water heaters for a fee of $5 per item, which is assessed on a resident’s water bill.
