You can only take your grill to the dump in some circumstances. Some landfills won’t accept grills due to their size, electronic parts, fire risk, or other reasons. Those that do may charge a fee. Call ahead for information to find out if your local dump will accept your old grill. They may instruct you to take your grill to a specific bulk drop-off location or event in your community instead.
