Frequently Asked Questions
Do you haul other types of appliances?
Besides refrigerators, we remove other household appliances. This includes ovens, dishwashers, hot water heaters, washing machines, and dryers. Whether you have a large refrigerator or smaller appliances, we can handle it.
How do you ensure the recycling process is eco-friendly?
We care about the environment, so we ensure appliances are disposed of properly. We partner with trusted recycling centers around New York to take apart and recycle parts. This reduces waste and lessens the impact on the environment.
Are there any preparation steps I need to take before pickup?
To get ready for your appliance pickup, remove any food and disconnect the appliance. It's a good idea to remove any ice or frozen items before we pick up your fridge. This helps prevent spills and makes the removal process cleaner. If your appliance has a lot of ice buildup, defrosting it ahead of time is also recommended.
Do you recycle the refrigerator?
Absolutely. All appliance removal services include drop-off at a certified recycling facility in the area, where parts like scrap metal, plastic, and electronic parts are separated and processed. If the unit is in good working condition, we may donate it to local charities to give it a second life.
Can I get a rebate or tax credit for recycling my appliance?
Some Energy Star appliances may qualify for local rebate programs or seasonal appliance recycling incentives in New York.
