Old appliances are the classic haul-away job: too heavy to move alone, too awkward for the curb, and cluttering a garage, basement, or laundry room. The work is straightforward — you point, the crew carries, the space comes back — but the details matter. Weight, stairs, and doorway geometry decide the job, and a fridge in the basement is a very different carry than one at the back door.
Refrigerators, freezers, and some AC units carry refrigerant, which has to be handled and disposed of the proper way rather than tossed with the trash. An honest hauler names that up front and routes those units correctly — along with any recyclable metal — instead of pretending everything goes to the same place. It's the difference between disposal done right and done cheap.
List the appliances and where they sit — refrigerator in the basement, washer and dryer in a second-floor laundry, water heater in a tight utility closet. Note stairs and access, since that's what shapes the job. If a new appliance is being delivered and you just need the old one gone, say so; timing the haul to the delivery is a common, easy request.
Single-item hauls are perfectly normal — one old fridge is a legitimate request, no minimum required. If you're clearing several at once, that prices efficiently in one trip. Either way, describe the item, its location, and the stairs between it and the door, and the visit arrives sized and equipped for the real carry. And if you're clearing out an estate, a rental turnover, or a basement full of the previous owner's leftovers, the appliances usually come with a pile of other haulable items — describe the whole lot and it's handled in one efficient trip rather than several.
Yes — and the refrigerant is handled the proper way, not tossed with the trash. Note where the unit sits so the carry is planned.
Absolutely — single-item hauls are normal, no minimum. Describe the item, its location, and any stairs.
Yes — hauling the old one as the new arrives is a common request. Give the date and it's planned around it.
