What to do with old toilet?

[JerryLBell]

We had new flooring put in the master bathroom and had a new toilet put in at that time. The flooring guys did a fine job taking out the old toilet and putting in the new one but they wouldn't take the old toilet. I left it out with the trash pickup and they wouldn't take it either. I took it to the landfill in Lake County and they wouldn't take it either. How do you get rid of old toilets?

Put it in your front yard with a sign saying "For Sale". It will disappear by the next morning.

I put mine out with the regular garbage and they took it. Maybe call waste management? A little hint also...........if you have a crapload of garbage it helps if you tip the guys..they really like that

Alright, somebody had to say it !! Put it on your front lawn and plant flowers in it !!

Bash it apart with a hammer. Put some out each trash day in a bag. It'll be gone in no time.

In our NJ town, they won't take anything extra at all. Using this same method, I disposed of beds, box springs, a recliner, a couch bed, etc. The key was just making the bits small enough. Lots of use of bolt cutters, hammer, knives, etc.

We called Bulk Pickup. They agreed to take it. 352-748-0109.

Don't leave us all with a cliffhanger.
When you finally do something, let us know what you did!

We listed our old toilets on Facebook and we sold them to a gentleman who was renovating an older house. We sold them for $25 I think.

I would put it outside with a sign saying free.

Put it out in front of the house with the lid open and a sign saying “head office”!

Call the sanitation office and schedule a pickup. It works.

The trolls will love it

I've had two toilets picked up with no problem. Be sure to remove the tank from the bowl and put it at the curb in pieces. If it's fully assembled it's too heavy and they won't pick it up.

As mentioned already, tipping the garbage men can create miracles of Biblical Proportions, been doing it across many States of residence for my adult life. Just be discrete about it and they will usually take anything you put out.

If it’s in good condition donate to habitat. They use for houses they refurbish

[Leesburg]

Habitat for Humanity in Ocala took ours.

[Albany]

I replaced 3 toilets in my big house up north, sold them on Craig's list for $30 each. The buyers were renovating apartments. It's free to list on Craigs List, leave them in your garage until they sell. They will.

[RICH1]

Like The Man said, break it up in little pieces ... very surprised your installer didn't take it! I also have used MARKETPLACE and have given them away! Don't keep us hanging

[dewilson58]

Put it in the front yards so dogs have a place to poop.

It is ceramic. If, you hit it with a hammer it will break just like dishes. Put on eye protection and have fun breaking it into small pieces that you can easily throw out with your trash. Putting it in a large trash bag and on a tarp will make clean up easier. It is likely the tank behind the toilet is secured with screws. Might be easier to do one piece at a time.

Call your waste pickup company and schedule a pickup. They will come by on the appointed day and take it.

[JayK!]

If it is in good shape, take it to Habitat for Humanity ReSale Shop.

There's always a way to get around a stupid system.
