Heavy, wired and plumbed: appliances cause the most trouble. Watsonville's free bulky pickup specifically leaves out refrigerators and air conditioners, so plenty of households are stuck with a dead fridge in the garage.
Our crew arrives with hand trucks, ratchet straps and a partner for the lift. Show us the unit and mention any steps or tight gates. Please empty and unplug a fridge ahead of time, and have gas or water supply capped by a qualified person. A picture and your address are enough for a free quote with upfront pricing.

Scrap metal and appliance recycling
Metal in an appliance is worth recycling. The Watsonville drop-off center on Harvest Drive takes metal from city residents, and the city landfill on San Andreas Road is the local disposal point. Appliances with refrigerant, such as fridges and air conditioners, need proper handling, and they are not part of the city pickup program.
That is why many people call a crew. Refrigerators, anything over 100 pounds, and e-waste are all outside what the city will collect, and we load them straight from your home or yard.

Watsonville FAQ: Appliance Removal
Does the Watsonville bulky pickup take refrigerators?
No. The city program excludes refrigerators and air conditioners, and anything over 100 pounds.
Will you unhook the appliance?
We move units that are already disconnected. Gas, water and electrical lines belong in a qualified person's hands.
What should I do with food in the fridge?
Take everything out, unplug it and let it defrost a day early so water does not spill across the floor.
Do you accept washers that still run?
Yes. A charity may take them if it wants them. If not, the metal goes to recycling.
How are water heaters handled?
Tank models are accepted after draining and disconnection, with the steel sent for recycling.
Is an upstairs stove a problem?
No. Two of us and a dolly handle stairs. Just mention them in your message.
