Free Water Heater Pickup in Indianapolis
Just replaced your water heater? We will pick up the old tank for free -- those heavy steel tanks are exactly what we recycle.
Indy Pickup 1111 picks up old water heaters completely free of charge. Water heater tanks are made of heavy-gauge steel, making them some of the most valuable scrap items we collect. Whether you have a 40-gallon residential tank or a larger commercial unit, we will haul it away at no cost.
The U.S. scrap recycling industry processes over 130 million metric tons annually (ISRI). Every free pickup keeps hundreds of pounds of metal out of landfills.
What We Pick Up Free
Why It's Free
We pick up these items for free because the metal inside has real scrap value. We are a recycling company, not a junk removal company. Your old appliance is our raw material.
Preparation Tips
- ✓ Disconnect the water heater from all water, gas, and electrical connections before pickup.
- ✓ Drain the tank before moving it -- a full water heater can weigh several hundred pounds.
- ✓ Place the water heater outside or in the garage for free pickup.
- ✓ If your plumber is doing the replacement, ask them to leave the old tank in the garage for us.
