Why Freezer Removal Isn't DIY
Disposing of an old freezer isn’t as easy as leaving it at the curb. These electrical appliances typically contain:
- Foam insulation that emits greenhouse gases
- Refrigerants that can potentially harm the ozone layer
- Mercury, oils, and other hazardous materials
- Steel and copper that can be sent to a local scrap metal recycler
Tossing these items into a landfill harms the environment and is illegal. That’s why relying on a professional junk removal service matters. We safely remove your old unit, recover materials, and coordinate drop-off with a certified recycling facility or local waste management division.

Preparing Your Freezer for Disposal
Before you dispose of your old freezer, follow these simple steps for a safe and quick removal:
- Empty the Contents: Take out food, ice trays, and shelves. Throw away any perishable items, but be mindful to donate usable food to local food banks.
- Disconnect from Power Source: Unplug the freezer from the wall. If your plug is broken or hard to reach, contact an electrician.
- Clean Ice: Remove any ice buildup or frozen items. If there’s a lot of ice, allow the freezer to defrost before we haul it.
- Remove Water and Drips: Once the ice is cleared, wipe down water and condensation.
- Remove Doors or Tape Them Shut: For safety, tape the doors shut, especially if your freezer will be outside before it's picked up.
