Appliance Removal in Cape Girardeau, MO

Appliance hauling across Cape Girardeau

Appliances are among the bulkiest, heaviest things a household ever has to get rid of, and most of them end up parked in a garage or basement for months because moving them is such a chore. Our Cape Girardeau appliance removal service takes that off your plate. We do not disconnect anything still hooked to live gas, but we carry out the dead dishwasher, the busted range or the retired dryer and haul it away, recycling the metal responsibly.

We serve Cape Girardeau along with Jackson, Scott City, Chaffee, Perryville and much of Southeast Missouri. Landlords clearing a rental, homeowners upgrading a kitchen, and families cleaning out an estate all call us to make the old units disappear in a single stop.

Appliances we remove

If it plugs in, hooks up or runs on gas and it belongs in a home, we will take it:

• Ranges, ovens, stoves and cooktops
• Dishwashers and trash compactors
• Microwaves, including over the range models
• Washers and dryers
• Refrigerators, freezers and mini fridges
• Window and portable air conditioners
• Water heaters, both tank and tankless
• Wine coolers, ice makers and kegerators

We take single appliances and full kitchens alike. If you are remodeling and swapping out several units at once, we can clear the whole set in one trip.

How pricing works, including the freon fee

Appliance removal is priced by volume, based on how much room the units take in the truck. Most standard appliances fall near our single item minimum, and combining several into one visit lowers the per unit cost. One thing to know up front: any appliance that contains refrigerant, meaning refrigerators, freezers, window air conditioners, wine coolers and similar cooling units, carries a small freon disposal fee. That fee is real and it covers the proper, legally required recovery of the refrigerant, which cannot simply be sent to the dump.

Recycling over landfilling

Appliances are mostly steel, aluminum and copper, all of which are worth recycling. We route the units we collect toward metal recycling channels around Cape Girardeau rather than burying good scrap. For cooling appliances, the refrigerant is recovered by proper methods before the metal is recycled, which is exactly why the freon fee exists. It keeps harmful gases out of the air over Southeast Missouri and keeps tons of metal in circulation.

Why not do it yourself

A full size appliance can weigh two hundred pounds or more, and they are tall, top heavy and hard to grip. Getting one up basement stairs or into a pickup alone is a great way to hurt yourself or dent the doorframe. Our crew brings appliance dollies, straps and enough hands to move them cleanly, and we know how to protect your floors on the way out. We handle the lifting and the recycling logistics so you never have to touch it.

Same day and next day pickups are often available. Let us know which appliances you have when you call so we can plan the load.

Handy for remodels and rental turnovers

A lot of our appliance work ties into bigger projects. When a Cape Girardeau kitchen gets remodeled, the old range, dishwasher, microwave and refrigerator all need to leave at once, often on a tight timeline before the new units and cabinets arrive. We coordinate around that. The same goes for landlords in Jackson and Scott City turning a rental between tenants, where a dead appliance left in the unit is holding up a new lease. We come in, pull the old appliances, and get out of the contractor's way, all in a single visit.

A few things worth knowing before pickup

To make the day go smoothly, a little prep helps:

• Unplug electric appliances and disconnect any water lines to dishwashers, ice makers and washers
• Have gas ranges and dryers professionally capped, since we do not disconnect live gas
• Empty refrigerators and freezers, and let them defrost if there is ice buildup
• Clear a path from the appliance to the door so we are not moving other items to reach it

None of that is strictly required, and we can work around most situations, but it speeds things along and keeps the quote as low as possible. When you call, just run through what appliances you have and whether any are cooling units, so we can factor in the freon fee and bring the right equipment for the load.
