What You Need to Do Before We Arrive

Disconnection is on you. We don’t perform plumbing, electrical, or gas work. Before our crew arrives:

  • Refrigerators and freezers: take out any food you want to keep and unplug the unit. If it has an icemaker, shut off the water valve. No need to defrost or clean it out.
  • Washers: shut off both water valves and unplug it.
  • Electric dryers: unplug it and disconnect the vent hose.
  • Gas dryers: have a licensed plumber shut off and cap the gas line. Disconnect the vent hose.
  • Gas stoves and ranges: capped gas line required, handled by a licensed plumber.
  • Electric stoves and wall ovens: disconnect the power at the breaker or have an electrician do it. Wall ovens need to be unbolted from the cabinet.
  • Built-in dishwashers: fully uninstalled before we arrive, with water, drain, and electrical disconnected. A plumber or handyman handles that work.

Once the appliance is disconnected and accessible, we handle the heavy part: pulling it out, stairs, loading, and disposal.

Why Refrigerant Handling Matters

Refrigerators, chest freezers, window AC units, and older dehumidifiers contain federally regulated refrigerants that cannot go to a standard landfill.

We route them to area processors that capture the refrigerant before scrapping, per EPA Section 608.

If you’re clearing a kitchen remodel, see our furniture removal page. For full-property situations, estate cleanouts and garage cleanouts handle appliances as part of the larger job.

Why Junk Doctors

Why Customers Choose Us

1

Disconnect First, Then We Haul

Have the appliance disconnected before we arrive: water valves shut off and hoses removed, gas lines capped by a licensed plumber, unit unplugged. We don't perform plumbing, electrical, or gas work. Once it's ready, we handle the lift, the stairs, the truck, and the disposal.

2

No Need to Deep-Clean or Defrost It

Once it's disconnected, a fridge or chest freezer gets hauled out as-is. You don't need to pull the shelves, scrub it, or defrost it. Take out the food you want to keep and leave the rest to us.

3

Refrigerants Handled Properly

Refrigerants can't go to a standard landfill. Where possible, units go through recycling facilities that handle proper capture and disposal under the EPA Responsible Appliance Disposal Program.

4

Same-Day Because Appliances Block Spaces

A broken fridge blocks the kitchen. We can be there today if you book soon. Pricing is based on volume.

FAQ

Questions Answered.

No. Disconnection is on you: water valves shut off and hoses removed, gas lines capped by a licensed plumber, and the unit unplugged. Then we handle pulling it out, stairs, loading, and disposal.
Once disconnected, a single fridge or washer runs 15–20 minutes from arrival to loaded. A full kitchen and laundry room clearout with four or five appliances takes about an hour. Stairs or tight access add time; let us know when you book.
Refrigerants in refrigerators, freezers, and AC units are federally regulated. We work with facilities where available to capture and reclaim them, and steel, copper, and aluminum are recycled where possible.
Yes. Pricing is based on truck space, so a single appliance that takes up a quarter of the truck is priced as a quarter load.
No, but it does need to be disconnected first.
Yes. Working or not, broken or old, we take it.
A single appliance is $135. That covers the two-person crew, the truck, and disposal, and it is the same price for a refrigerator, freezer, washer, dryer, or stove. A full kitchen and laundry clearout with four or five appliances usually lands between a quarter and a half truck, $298 to $488. You get the firm price on-site before we start.
Yes, once it's disconnected. Built-in appliances need to be uninstalled by a plumber, electrician, or handyman beforehand. We don't perform that work. After the unit is free, we pull it out and haul it.
Stairs add time, which can affect the quote. No surprise stair fee.
Where possible, we use facilities with recovery equipment to capture the refrigerant before scrap processing, as federal law requires.
Yes. A refrigerator, stove, dishwasher, and over-range microwave all fit in a single truck in most cases.
Have a licensed plumber shut off and cap the gas line before we arrive. We don't cap gas lines ourselves.
