Appliance removal jobs we handle in Hanover Park
Our Hanover Park crews remove refrigerators, freezers, ranges, wall ovens, cooktops, dishwashers and microwaves, one at a time or a whole kitchen before a remodel. We do the lifting and the stairs, and the old units go to recyclers or donation instead of the curb.
Old refrigerator or freezer that has to go
A refrigerator can't simply be tossed. Ours go to recyclers that pull the refrigerant and oil first, then process the rest.
Hardwired wall oven or cooktop removal
Removing a built-in cooking appliance means unscrewing it from the cabinet or counter and making the wiring behind it safe. Both are part of the job.
Gas range that needs disconnecting
Before a gas stove can leave, the shutoff is closed, the connector removed and the gas outlet capped. We do it carefully and check the cap for leaks.
Dishwasher removal without a flood
The supply is shut off, the drain hose released from the sink or disposal and the power disconnected before the unit comes out.
Appliance that still works and could be donated
If the old unit is clean and working, it may have a second life. We can take it to a reuse or donation outlet instead of the scrapyard where one will accept it.
Removal when the new appliance is coming from a store
Some delivery crews won't touch gas lines or water connections. We prepare the old appliance and haul it off so the new one can go right in.
Second fridge or freezer in the garage or basement
That extra refrigerator in the garage or the old chest freezer in the basement often gets left for years. We carry it up or out and send it for recycling.
What the install includes
- Floor and doorway protectionRunners down, corners and frames padded before anything moves.
- Gas disconnect and capThe gas supply is shut off and sealed where the range was.
- Water and drain disconnectDishwasher and ice-maker lines closed and sealed.
- Electrical made safeCords unplugged; hardwired units disconnected with the breaker off and wires capped in a covered box.

Kitchen Appliance Removal questions from Hanover Park homeowners
Do I need to empty or defrost the fridge first?
Clear out the food. An early unplug helps, but we can still remove it if you couldn't.
Do you disconnect the gas and water?
Yes. Gas lines are shut off and capped, water lines closed and sealed, and hardwired units made safe before removal.
Can I put an old refrigerator out with the garbage?
Not as normal garbage. Fridges and freezers go to facilities that recover the refrigerant first.
Will you remove appliances before my remodel starts?
Yes, in one visit, coordinated with your remodel schedule.
How much does appliance removal cost?
Number of appliances, access and disconnect work drive the price. We put it in writing up front.
