Appliances in Aptos get a hard life. Homes near the water see salt in the air, townhomes and condos hold stacked laundry pairs in closets, and plenty of garages shelter a second fridge that nobody has opened in years. Moving one of these alone is a two-person job at the very least.
Tell us what the unit is and where it sits. Our crew takes the weight: floors are protected, doors are measured by photo, and the machine goes out the shortest safe path. Working units are offered for donation, metal goes to recycling when it can, and the rest goes to a permitted facility.

Where an old appliance goes next
For single-family homes in the unincorporated county, GreenWaste Recovery’s bulky collection allows a few appliances per pickup, up to three collections a year; a refrigerator or freezer with refrigerant counts as two. That works when the unit is small enough and you can set it out. We cover heavy, upstairs, built-in and multi-unit loads.
Metal is pulled for recycling and working units are offered for donation. Anyone who would rather self-haul should know that county disposal sites ask residents for proof of residency at the gate.

Typical appliance jobs in Aptos
- Spare garage fridge
A second refrigerator has idled in a garage for years, surrounded by shelves. The owner empties it and we walk it down the driveway past the bikes.
- Townhome laundry swap
A new washer and dryer arrive next week, so the old stacked pair has to leave from a hall closet. We measure the doorway and landing from photos.
- Oven swap during a rental refresh
A property manager is replacing the stove and the dishwasher between tenants. The old pair is waiting by the back door, and the crew takes both away with the bagged kitchen debris.
Streets we cover for appliance pickups
Appliance requests arrive from townhomes and condos at Seascape, houses by the water at Rio Del Mar, and ranch-style homes scattered along Soquel Drive. Our junk removal in Aptos, CA page covers the whole town, and junk removal around Santa Cruz County shows the rest of the area.

Refrigerator removal in Aptos: fridges and freezers
Refrigerator removal in Aptos usually means one of three things: a kitchen fridge being replaced, a second fridge that has hummed in a garage for years, or a chest freezer in a shed. Please empty it, and let a freezer defrost a day ahead so nothing leaks across the floor. We wrap the door, tip the unit onto a dolly and take the shortest safe route out, even down a sloped driveway or past a patio gate. Metal goes to recycling where possible, and a unit that still works may be offered for donation.
Washer dryer removal in Aptos: sets, stacks and tight closets
For washer dryer removal in Aptos, the hard part is usually the path, not the machine: a stacked set in a hall closet, a laundry nook upstairs in a townhome near Seascape, or a pair behind a narrow garage door. Send a photo of the doorway and the stairs and we measure the route before we arrive.
You or a plumber disconnects the water supply and drain, and a gas dryer’s line is capped by a professional. We do not do plumbing or gas work. Once the machines are free, we carry them out together and leave the space clear for the new set.
Aptos FAQ: Appliance Removal
Do I disconnect the appliance first?
If you can, please do. Capping a gas line or a water supply belongs to a plumber, not to our crew.
Should I empty the fridge?
Yes, and give the freezer time to defrost so it does not leak across your floor.
Will you take just one washer?
Of course. A single machine is a normal job, priced by the space it needs.
Does salt-damaged equipment cost more?
Condition is not the question. Size, weight and the carry decide the quote.
Can a working appliance be donated?
Sometimes. We ask about age and condition, and we offer working units for donation where we can.
Are mini fridges and window units included?
Yes. They can go with larger pieces or by themselves.
