Appliances We Haul
If it plugs in, hooks up to water, or runs on gas and you're done with it, we can usually take it. Common pickups include:
- Refrigerators and freezers
- Chest freezers and garage fridges
- Washers and dryers
- Stoves, ranges, and ovens
- Dishwashers
- Microwaves and range hoods
- Water heaters
- Window AC units and dehumidifiers
- Wine coolers and mini fridges
- Ice makers
- Trash compactors
- Treadmills and other plug-in exercise equipment
Why Appliances Are a Pain to Get Rid Of
Appliances are heavy, bulky, and built to stay put. A full-size fridge can weigh a few hundred pounds, and getting it through a kitchen doorway without scraping the floor takes a dolly, straps, and two people who know what they're doing. Washers and dryers are wedged into tight laundry closets. Water heaters sit in the garage or the attic, full of sediment and hard to drain.
Then there's disposal. Fridges, freezers, and AC units contain refrigerant, and federal rules require it to be removed by a certified technician before the metal can be recycled. That's why you can't just leave an old fridge at the curb and hope for the best. We make sure appliances with refrigerant go to a facility set up to handle them.
How Appliance Removal Works
- 1
Tell us what's going. Call or send a photo, and let us know where the appliance is and whether it's still hooked up.
- 2
Get your price. We give you the exact price before we start.
- 3
We move it out. We use dollies and straps and protect your floors and door frames on the way out.
- 4
We recycle it. Metal gets recycled, and appliances with refrigerant go to a facility that handles it the right way.
Do I Need to Disconnect It First?
It helps, and it's the safest way to do it. Here's what to handle before we arrive:
- Fridges and freezers: Unplug them a day ahead so they can defrost. Empty all food and wipe out any water.
- Washers: Turn off the water valves and disconnect the hoses if you can. Have a towel or bucket handy for leftover water.
- Dryers: Unplug them. For gas dryers, have the gas line shut off and capped by someone qualified.
- Gas stoves: Same as gas dryers. The gas line needs to be shut off and capped safely before we move it.
- Water heaters: Turn off the power or gas and the water supply, then drain the tank.
If you're not comfortable disconnecting gas or water lines, have a plumber or appliance tech do it first. We're happy to haul it as soon as it's free.
How Much Does Appliance Removal Cost?
| What affects the price | Why |
|---|---|
| Type of appliance | Fridges, freezers, and AC units with refrigerant take special handling |
| Size and weight | Big side-by-side fridges and water heaters take more muscle |
| Location | Upstairs laundry rooms, attics, and tight kitchens take more time |
| Number of items | Several appliances in one trip costs less per item |
| Other junk | Adding other items to the load is often cheaper than a second trip |

Won't the Store Take My Old Appliance?
Sometimes, when you buy a new one and pay for haul-away. But a lot of people buy online, buy from a store that charges extra for it, or have an old garage fridge or freezer they're not replacing at all. That's where we come in. We take appliances whether you're replacing them or not, and we can grab other junk on the same trip.
Electronics Too
If you're also getting rid of old TVs, computers, or printers, see electronics removal. Electronics get recycled separately from big appliances, and we handle both.
