Few things weigh more per square foot than a dead fridge, and they tend to sit in the tightest spots: a laundry nook off a hallway in a small cottage, a stacked washer and dryer in a village condo, a spare freezer in a garage on a narrow lot. The hard part is rarely the unplugging. It is getting a few hundred pounds past a doorway and down steps.
That is the part we take on. Describe the unit, add a photo of where it stands, and the crew does the rest: padding the floors if needed, lifting, loading. Fridges, freezers, washers, dryers, dishwashers and stoves are all fair game. Units that still work get offered to donation, scrap metal is recycled when possible, and whatever is left goes to a permitted facility.
Appliances we carry out
- Fridges and chest freezers
Kitchen refrigerators, plus the spare in the garage that only holds old ice trays.

Refrigerator removal Capitola and washer dryer removal Capitola, door to trailer
Refrigerator removal Capitola kitchens call for often means a side-by-side that must turn the corner of a narrow galley kitchen in a village condo, or a chest freezer shoved against the back wall of a garage. Empty it first and leave the rest to us: a dolly, protection for the floor, a careful trip down the steps and onto the trailer. Doors and handles come off when that helps clear a tight frame. Metal is recycled where possible, and a unit that still runs may be offered for donation.
Washer dryer removal Capitola renters and owners need is usually a stacked pair in a hall closet or a side-by-side set in a garage alcove. Please shut off the water and disconnect the hoses and any gas or electrical hookup beforehand, because we do not do plumbing or gas work, only the carrying. Mention stairs and door widths when you text and both machines can usually go in one trip.
Where old appliances end up
GreenWaste’s Bulky Item Collection in Capitola lists small appliances among the things it takes from single-family homes, booked with them 72 hours before the pickup day. Big units, anything upstairs, and anyone unwilling to wrestle a refrigerator to the curb are where we come in.
Scrap metal is separated for recycling, and working appliances are offered for donation. Hauling one yourself is possible, but the county’s Buena Vista site near Watsonville asks for proof of residency, and electronics and recyclables cannot be mixed into a landfill load.

Typical appliance jobs in Capitola
- Stacked washer and dryer in a village condo
A pair sits in a hallway closet two flights up. We measure the stairwell by photo, the units walk out once disconnected, and the closet is left clear for a new set.
- Old fridge in a cottage garage
A second refrigerator has stood unused for years in a one-car garage on a tight lot. The owner empties it first and we take it down the side path.
- Range and dishwasher after a kitchen update
A remodel leaves an old range and dishwasher in the driveway. We load them with the cabinet scraps, in one visit.

Capitola FAQ: Appliance Removal
Must the unit be unhooked before you arrive?
Ideally yes. A pro or you should cap gas and water lines, since plumbing and gas work are outside what we do.
Do I clear out the fridge first?
Yes. Take out the food and let the freezer thaw so nothing leaks on the way out.
Can you pick up one refrigerator only?
Absolutely. A single appliance is a regular job and is priced for the space it takes.
Can the washer come down from an upper floor?
Yes. Note the stairs and snap the route so the crew can plan.
Why not rely on the GreenWaste bulky collection?
It is a good option for small appliances at the curb of a single-family home if you schedule ahead. We cover bigger units, apartments and times when you want a crew to do the carrying.
Is the appliance recycled?
We recycle metal where possible and offer working units for donation.
