Appliance Removal

Appliance removal makes sense when the unit is heavy, awkward, or stuck in a spot a curbside pickup can't reach. A full-size refrigerator or a top-load washer can top 200 pounds, and many Glen Ellyn homes near Lake Ellyn and Glenbard Acres have older finished basements with narrow, turning staircases. We bring the dolly, straps, and a second set of hands so the appliance comes up without gouging the drywall or door casings. If your old range is just being swapped for a new one, a store delivery crew will sometimes cart the old one away — the trade-off is they only take the item they're replacing, on their schedule, and won't touch a second appliance or anything in the garage. We handle the whole clear-out in one visit.

Water heaters and older refrigerators need a bit more care. We drain and disconnect the water heater's lines before it moves, and we keep sealed-system refrigerators and freezers upright so the refrigerant lines stay intact for proper handling at the recycling facility. DuPage County steel and metal appliances are recyclable, so working units and clean scrap head to donation or metal recovery rather than straight to a landfill whenever the appliance allows it.

We cover every Glen Ellyn neighborhood — Stacy's Corners, Sunset Knolls, Maryknoll, Forest Hills, Honeysuckle Hill, Glen Crest, Briarcliffe, and the homes around Five Corners. Kitchen remodels near the Glen Ellyn Public Library, laundry-room upgrades in Glenbard Acres, and garage cleanouts with a dead chest freezer are all common calls. Tell us the appliance, the floor it's on, and whether stairs are involved, and we'll give you a straight number before the truck arrives.
