How to dispose of vacuum cleaners

Take old and broken vacuums, floor and surface cleaners to an electronics recycling drop-off.

This is for cleaning appliances that have a power cord or runs on a battery/charger.

This includes:

  • Vacuum cleaners – upright, canister, stick, wet-dry, cordless etc.
  • Robot vacuums – e.g. Roomba
  • Carpet cleaners
  • Floor scrubbers and polishers
  • Wet-hard floor cleaners
  • Robotic pool cleaners
  • Steam mops

Special instructions

  • Remove any vacuum dust from the cleaner before bringing it to a drop-off location.
  • If you take electronics to a landfill and bring other garbage in your load, landfill charges will apply.
  • Some restrictions apply. For full details, see Electronics Recycling program.
  • Do NOT put electronics in your blue cart as these items can damage the equipment at the recycling facility.
