Appliance removal jobs we handle in Naperville
A dead fridge in the garage or a stove that's being replaced doesn't have to sit around for weeks. We shut off and cap the connections, carry the unit out without scuffing walls or floors and haul it off from your Naperville home.
Microwave, hood or small built-ins
Over-the-range microwaves, range hoods and trash compactors come out too. We take down the bracket, cap the wiring or duct and remove the unit.
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.
Appliance that still works and could be donated
Working ranges and refrigerators are often wanted by reuse stores. Let us know, and we'll try donation before recycling.
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.
Clearing the kitchen before a remodel
When a remodel is about to start, every appliance has to come out first. We disconnect them all, cap the utilities and leave the room empty.
Old refrigerator or freezer that has to go
We remove old fridges and chest or upright freezers, cap the water supply behind them and send them for refrigerant recovery and recycling.
Broken appliance that's leaking or smells
A fridge that died with food inside or a dishwasher that's been leaking needs careful handling. We empty, seal and remove it without spreading the mess.

Kitchen Appliance Removal questions from Naperville homeowners
Can I put an old refrigerator out with the garbage?
Generally no. Refrigerant appliances need proper recovery, which is why we take them to recyclers set up for it.
Do you disconnect the gas and water?
We do. Disconnecting is part of the job, not something you have to arrange.
Do I need to empty or defrost the fridge first?
Yes, empty it. Defrosting overnight keeps water off the floor during the move.
Can you remove an appliance from the basement or second floor?
We do. Stairs are a normal part of the job.
Can you take an appliance that still works?
We do. Working units can often go to a reuse outlet.
Can Naperville bulk pickup take my old appliance or cabinets?
Hauler Groot Industries (630-892-9294): two bulk items/week free; one appliance/week free but call ahead. If you'd rather not deal with it, we haul old units and debris away.
Do I need a permit for appliance removal in Naperville?
It depends on the scope. Naperville's rule in short: Remodeling such as kitchens requires a permit, as do electrical work (minor repairs and low-voltage excepted), plumbing pipe/fixture installation or rearrangement, and structural changes. We handle the permit when one is needed with Transportation, Engineering and Development (TED) Business Group, Building Permits.
