Appliance removal jobs we handle in Villa Park
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 Villa Park home.
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.
Gas range that needs disconnecting
Pulling a gas range out isn't just lifting. The supply is turned off, the line capped and tested, then the range is moved out on a dolly.
Protecting floors and walls on the way out
We lay runners and use appliance dollies with straps so a heavy range or fridge doesn't scratch hardwood or tear vinyl.
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.
Microwave, hood or small built-ins
We pull down the old microwave or hood, close off the opening or wiring and take it with the rest.
Clearing the kitchen before a remodel
Out with the whole appliance set at once: connections safely capped and the kitchen cleared for new cabinets and floors.
Hardwired wall oven or cooktop removal
A wall oven comes out of its cabinet with the power off at the panel and the conductors capped inside a covered box, ready for the next appliance.

Kitchen Appliance Removal questions from Villa Park homeowners
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.
How much does appliance removal cost?
A single fridge from a ground-floor kitchen and a full set from a basement are priced differently. You get a line-item quote first.
Does Villa Park pick up old appliances?
Many suburbs offer bulk or special-item pickup through their waste hauler, often by appointment and with extra rules for fridges. Check with the village; if you'd rather not move it to the curb, we carry it out for you.
Is appliance removal free?
Not usually, since disconnecting, carrying and recycling all take time. We tell you the price before we start.
Can you remove an appliance from the basement or second floor?
Yes. We bring the right dolly and straps, protect the stairs and walls and carry it up or down safely.
Villa Park contractor registration: do kitchen contractors need it?
No general contractor registration described. Homeowners acting as own general contractor submit a form and homeowner's insurance copy. We take care of that before work starts.
What happens to the old appliance in Villa Park?
Hauler is Lakeshore Recycling Systems (LRS). Bulk items collected loose on regular day. If you'd rather not deal with it, we haul old units and debris away.
Do I need a permit for appliance removal in Villa Park?
It depends on the scope. Villa Park's rule in short: Permit required for adding, replacing or relocating plumbing fixtures, electrical or HVAC systems, and for moving or building walls. We handle the permit when one is needed with Permitting Division, Community & Economic Development.
