Appliance Removal NYC - Same-Day from $125
Refrigerator, washer, dryer, stove, dishwasher - gone today. EPA-compliant Freon recovery. Walk-up included across all 5 boroughs + Nassau.
NYC's Same-Day Appliance Removal Crew
Old refrigerators, washers, dryers, dishwashers, stoves, and microwaves are some of the most common items we remove in NYC. They're heavy, awkward, and many contain refrigerants that require EPA-certified handling. NYC Sanitation won't pick them up curbside - they require a separate scheduled appliance pickup, which can take 1-3 weeks.
We do same-day appliance removal across all 5 boroughs and Nassau County. The crew arrives with appliance dollies, hand trucks, and the equipment needed to safely disconnect water lines, gas lines, and electrical. We follow EPA Section 608 regulations for Freon recovery on fridges, freezers, and AC units - the refrigerants are captured by certified recyclers, never vented into the atmosphere.
Working appliances often get a second life through Habitat for Humanity ReStore or used-appliance dealers. Non-working units go to certified appliance recyclers where the metal, plastic, and copper are recovered. Either way, you get a fixed-price quote on the phone and the appliance is gone within hours.
Most NYC apartments require a Certificate of Insurance (COI) for service contractors. We email building-specific COIs to your managing agent within the hour, with $2M general liability and the standard NYC additional insured language. Walk-up apartments included - no stair fees.
When You Might Need Appliance Removal
Common situations we handle every day across NYC + Nassau.
Refrigerator Replacement
New fridge arriving tomorrow. The old one needs to be disconnected, the water line shut off, the Freon recovered legally, and the unit hauled away. We coordinate with your delivery window - pickup before, after, or same day.
Washer + Dryer Set
Combined laundry replacement. Both units need to come out - possibly from a tight closet or stacked configuration. We bring straps, dollies, and tools to disconnect water hoses and 240V electrical safely.
Kitchen Renovation Prep
Range, oven, dishwasher, microwave, and refrigerator all need to go before the contractor arrives. We coordinate same-day pickup so your kitchen is ready for demo. See our kitchen demolition page if you need both.
Broken / Old Appliances
Years of accumulation in the basement, garage, or service closet. We haul broken washers, dead fridges, old AC units (Freon recovered), and water heaters. Most NYC homes have 2-3 forgotten appliances waiting to go.

What NYC Customers Say
6 recent appliance removal jobs across the boroughs.
"Same-day pickup of an old fridge that died on us. The crew brought a dolly and got it down 3 flights of brownstone stairs without scratching the walls. Freon was recovered on-site with certification. The cost was exactly what they quoted on the phone."
Daniel R.
Park Slope, Brooklyn
Refrigerator + freezer removal
"We needed every appliance out before the contractor arrived for a kitchen remodel. They coordinated with our managing agent for the COI and service elevator, then did the full demo + appliance pickup in one visit. Saved us a week of coordination."
Michelle W.
Upper East Side, Manhattan
Full kitchen for renovation
"The dryer caught fire (luckily contained). They came out same-day, disconnected the gas line, and hauled both units. Brought a new dryer the next day from a friend's recommendation. Fast, professional, fair pricing."
Carlos M.
Astoria, Queens
Washer + dryer replacement
"Old gas stove was a fire hazard. They shut off the gas, capped it, and removed both the stove and range hood. Coordinated with my plumber for the permanent cap. Whole job took 45 minutes."
Linda K.
Williamsburg, Brooklyn
Stove + range hood removal
"Closing a small restaurant. Had a commercial walk-in freezer, range, two fridges, dishwasher, and ice maker. They sent two trucks, worked all afternoon, recovered all the Freon, and gave us proper documentation for the lease return."
Robert B.
Garden City, Long Island
Multiple appliances + commercial freezer
"Four old window ACs taking up garage space. They handled the Freon recovery on each, gave me a certificate of disposal for my records, and the cost was less than the energy bill of running them for a month."
