Appliance Removal in Orlando, FL

The appliance removal call almost always lands on the same calendar day as the appliance delivery. Lowe's or Home Depot is dropping off the new fridge at 9 AM, the old one has to be out of the kitchen before the truck pulls up, and the city bulk-pickup window is two weeks away. Or you are mid-kitchen-remodel and every appliance is coming out the same morning. Or you are doing a move-out and the rental came furnished. In all three scenarios you need a crew that shows up on time, is set up for fridges and washers (not just couches), and knows the EPA refrigerant rules. That is the service.

We pick up the full residential appliance list: refrigerators (top freezer, side-by-side, French door, mini), freezers (chest and upright), washers (top-load and front-load), dryers (electric and gas — we will pull the cord, you need a licensed plumber to disconnect the gas line beforehand), ranges and ovens (electric and gas), dishwashers, microwaves (counter and over-range), hot water heaters (tank and tankless), and window-unit A/Cs. Each one has its own dolly, strap and removal technique — and we have done all of it many times across Orlando.

Refrigerant compliance is the part that separates a legitimate appliance hauler from a curb-and-pray operator. Refrigerators, freezers, window-unit A/Cs and dehumidifiers all contain refrigerant gases that are federally regulated under EPA Section 608 of the Clean Air Act — it is illegal to puncture, crush, or dispose of these units without first draining and capturing the refrigerant at a licensed processor. We route every refrigerant-containing appliance to a Section 608-certified processor who drains and recovers the gas before the cabinet is recycled. The fee for this is $40 and is shown as a separate line on your quote — not buried.

Second-floor laundry rooms are a specific Orlando problem. Half of the new-construction homes in the metro have the washer and dryer upstairs, sometimes at the end of a 90-degree-turn hallway with carpeted stairs and a tight doorframe. We come prepared: appliance dolly with stair-climbing straps, blankets to protect the carpeting and walls, a two-person crew so the dolly is always controlled, and the knowledge to disassemble the pedestals if needed. We will not crash your dryer through the railing — that is amateur work and it happens way too often.

Donation-first routing is the default for working units. If your refrigerator, washer, or dryer is functional and under roughly ten years old, we route it to a local Orlando-area thrift partner that accepts working appliances and gives you a donation receipt for your records. If the unit is dead or visibly past end-of-life, it goes to a licensed metal recycler — the steel cabinet, copper coils and aluminum compressor housing are real recyclable value, not landfill. We will tell you up front which path your appliance is going down based on its condition.
