Appliances Disposal

New appliances are often delivered where you want them in your house, and when you move, someone else usually does the lifting and carrying. What do you do when you have an old appliance to dispose of?

If you have an appliance you no longer want, then it needs to be picked up, carried out tight doorways, loaded into your vehicle, and driven to a waste or recycling site. That’s a daunting task! Even if you get it out the door, many people in cities only have a car, if they have a vehicle at all!

What do you do if the appliance is in the basement and needs to be hauled up stairs? We make it easy! For appliance removal, all you need to do is call! Our friendly professionals will haul away any appliance, and even clean up any mess left behind!

What to Do With Old Appliances

Old appliances may not fit the look of a more modern kitchen, or the color is outdated. However, if the appliance still works, then it could be sold or donated. Family, friends, or others may be willing to take it off your hands. Don’t throw appliances that have given the good fight and don’t work anymore in the trash; they can be recycled or refurbished.

If you don’t have access to a truck or the time and energy to cart it upstairs or down, schedule an appliance pick up with us. We’ll dispose of it in an eco-friendly way.

Where Can I Take Old Appliances to Dump?

Small appliances like toasters can be put in blue boxes for disposal, but larger appliances aren’t considered curbside waste. Many communities no longer take appliances at their waste disposal site. Appliances contain valuable materials that can be recycled, and some, unfortunately, contain hazardous chemicals that are dangerous to the environment.

Most cities have transfer stations or recycling sites where appliances can be dropped off for proper disposal. If you don’t have a vehicle, our teams will pick up large items and haul them away, all you have to do is call.

Can I Donate Old Appliances?

Appliances that still work but you no longer need can be donated. Charities will give it to a family in need or a veterans’ or homeless center. Other organizations that are businesses that will sell your donated item and use the money raised from its sale to help provide services to others. Many people looking for a used working appliance to replace one lost in disaster, hardship, or just for a summer retreat.

Can Appliances Be Recycled?

Old appliances that no longer work and can’t be donated should be taken to an appliance recycling center. Plastics and metals can be melted down and made into new products. Copper wire and circuit boards are valuable items that can be reused too. Different parts can be sold as replacements, and hazardous materials disposed of safely. Very little of your old appliance will end up going to a landfill site.
