Appliances crews remove

• Window and portable air conditioners, dehumidifiers
• Old HVAC equipment, if disconnected by a licensed contractor

Why refrigerators need special handling

Refrigerators, freezers, dehumidifiers and air conditioners contain refrigerant. Federal rules under the Clean Air Act require refrigerant to be recovered before these appliances are scrapped. That is why many landfills and haulers charge a little more for them. A responsible hauler takes them to a recycler that recovers the refrigerant and scraps the metal.

Freezer full of spoiled food?

If a garage freezer died while you were away, the smell can be overwhelming. Tell the crew what is inside. Some will remove the contents for a fee; others will ask you to bag spoiled food first. Never tip a freezer full of meltwater in your garage.

Water heaters

Water heaters are heavy, often full of sediment and connected to gas or electric. Have a plumber or the installer disconnect and drain it first. Many plumbers haul the old one away when they install a new one, so ask before paying for a separate pickup.

Does the store take it?

Many big-box stores will haul away the old appliance when they deliver a new one, sometimes for a fee. If you missed that window, or you are clearing a home with no replacement coming, a junk crew is the simple answer.

How junk removal is priced

Most junk haulers price by how much space your items take in the truck, from a single item up to a full load. Around Citrus County, local companies advertise single-item pickups starting around $65 and full truckloads approaching $600. Heavy items such as concrete, dirt and roofing, and items with disposal fees such as mattresses, tires and refrigerators, can add to the price. The hauler should give you a firm price on site before loading anything. Call (352) 765-9817 to get a quote.

Before pickup

• Unplug the appliance and shut off water lines to washers, ice makers and dishwashers.
• Prop refrigerator doors open to dry; never leave a fridge with a closed door where children can reach it.
• Clear a path to the door.
