Appliance removal jobs we handle in Roselle
Getting rid of an old kitchen appliance starts behind it: a gas line to cap, a water line to shut, a hardwired cable to make safe. In Roselle we disconnect each unit properly, protect the floor and doorways on the way out and take it to recycling, so the space is clean and ready for what comes next.
Gas range that needs disconnecting
We close the valve behind the range, take off the flex line and seal the outlet so nothing is left open when the unit is gone.
Second fridge or freezer in the garage or basement
Old basement freezers and garage fridges use power and space. We remove them and get the refrigerant recovered.
Appliance that still works and could be donated
A replacement isn't always about a broken appliance. When yours still runs, donation is an option we offer.
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.
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.
Doorways and stairs too tight for the appliance
Basement stairs and narrow back doors are where old appliances get stuck. We measure the path, strip what has to come off and use the right dolly.
Removal when the new appliance is coming from a store
If the store's haul-away doesn't fit your schedule or skips gas and water units, we take care of the old appliance ourselves.

Kitchen Appliance Removal questions from Roselle homeowners
How much does appliance removal cost?
It depends on how many units, their size, the stairs and whether gas, water or hardwired connections are involved. We give a written, itemized estimate.
Is appliance removal free?
Free haul-away is sometimes bundled with a purchase. Our service covers the jobs those don't: gas and water disconnects, stairs and recycling.
Will you remove appliances before my remodel starts?
Yes. We clear every appliance, cap the utilities and leave the kitchen ready for demolition.
Can you remove an appliance from the basement or second floor?
We do. Stairs are a normal part of the job.
What happens to my old appliance?
Fridges and freezers go to facilities that recover the refrigerant; other units go to metal recyclers. Working ones can go to donation.
Roselle contractor registration: do kitchen contractors need it?
Contractors must register with the Village via Cloudpermit and be licensed: surety bond, certificate of insurance naming the Village, $75 fee. We take care of that before work starts.

Flood Brothers takes one bulk item per week at no charge; appliances (white goods) collected for a fee. If you'd rather not deal with it, we haul old units and debris away.
