How Junk King Appliance Removal Services Can Help You Today!

Appliances are a necessity. Everyone needs a refrigerator, stove, and oven in their home, and having a washing machine and dryer in your home saves you trips to the laundromat. While appliances are designed to last for years, there’s always the risk that they will break. What do you do when your refrigerator goes out? All of your food can quickly spoil if you don’t replace it quickly. However, while getting a new refrigerator can be fairly easy, getting rid of the old one isn’t. Using an appliance removal service in Minneapolis is often the easiest solution.

Here are a few tips for replacing your old appliance and some ways you can get rid of old appliances.

 

Tips for Replacing Your Old Appliance

If you have an appliance that has died, your first instinct may be to panic just a little. Appliances are expensive. Even a good microwave can run a hundred dollars or more. If you need to replace your refrigerator, washing machine, or oven, you’re looking at much more. Fortunately, many stores do offer financing, so you won’t have to come up with all of this money at once.

Still, it can be financially stressful, so the first tip for replacing a broken appliance is to take your time if possible. Do some comparison shopping and check for sales. Also, look at the different financing options offered by stores and do some online research.

While waiting can be a viable option if the appliance is your dryer or microwave, what do you do if it’s your refrigerator? The need for a refrigerator is a little more immediate, and you may feel like you have to immediately go out and buy a replacement. That’s certainly valid, especially if you don’t know anyone nearby who could keep your refrigerated and frozen foods for a few days. Still, try to take an hour or so to comparison shop online. Your budget will thank you.

Buy Used

There are some places that offer refurbished or repaired appliances. These may better fit your budget but do be aware that these aren’t new appliances. Buying used appliances may save you money, but they may also not last as long as new ones. They may need repairs more often or may not work perfectly. Buying used or refurbished may be your best option budget-wise at the moment but be aware that you’ll likely have to replace them sooner rather than later.

Another option is to look at garage sales or on online sites such as Facebook Marketplace. While you can get some great deals here, you do have to keep in mind that there’s no warranty or other type of guarantee when buying directly from an individual. Always make certain the appliance actually works before buying it.

 

Do You Really Need a Replacement?Do You Really Need a Replacement?

Do you actually need to replace the dead appliance? If it’s your refrigerator or microwave, the answer is likely yes. However, that may not always be the case. If your chest freezer died, consider how often you actually use it. Was it full of food that expired months or even years ago? Did you get into the freezer regularly, and did you put more in it than a few items? You may find that you can actually have more than enough space in your refrigerator’s freezer section.

The same could be said with a dryer. Do you have a clothesline in your backyard or the option of running one? If so, you may want to consider using it. This not only saves you from buying a new dryer but also cuts down on your monthly utility costs.

 

Some Companies Offer Old Appliance Removal

One of the ways to deal with your old appliance is to have it removed by the same company that delivers your new one. Some businesses offer this for free or for an additional fee. When they deliver your new appliance, they disconnect the old one and haul it off for you. However, don’t assume that every business will do this. Make certain that it’s included in your purchase, too. If it costs extra, make certain you’ve paid for it and that your receipt clearly states you added this service.

Haul the Old Appliance Out to the Curb

What if you’re not buying a replacement appliance right away? Maybe the appliance that went out was your old refrigerator you kept in the garage or the small chest freezer you didn’t use that often. What do you do with these items? One solution is to take them down to the curb on bulk trash or recycling day.

Minneapolis is a little different from other cities in that there is a major focus on recycling. This means if you put something out for bulk trash day that contains recyclable parts, you may be surprised to find that it’s not picked up. You should put these items, including refrigerators, freezers, ovens, dishwashers, washing machines, and dryers, out on your recycling day. Typically, the recycling crew won’t be able to take them that day, but they will mark the items with a sticker and return the following day with their larger truck.

This is great if you want to get rid of appliances and have them recycled, but there are a few drawbacks. You do need to remove the doors from the appliances, especially refrigerators and freezers, because children can get trapped in them. Another drawback is that the city only picks up recyclables every two weeks. This means you have to find some place to store the old appliance until you can put them out for pickup. If you have limited space, keeping an old oven or refrigerator for two weeks can be an inconvenience.

Perhaps the biggest downside to using the city’s pickup service, though, is that you have to get the items down to the curb on your own. This means you have to maneuver them through your home and out the door. If you live in an upstairs duplex or in a condo, you have to deal with stairs or an elevator, too. That can be a lot of work, especially if you live alone. It can be easy to hurt your back, knees, or any other body part while moving a heavy, bulky appliance. You could also bang it into the doorframe, scrap your floor, or do other damage to your home or building.

How Does Junk King Work?

When you call Junk King Minneapolis, the first thing we will do is ask you about what you need picked up. If it’s something as simple as an old refrigerator, a sofa, or other items, we’ll be able to give you an accurate quote over the phone, via text, or through our online price estimator. However, if you have a lot of stuff you need us to haul away or have something uncommon, we may need to come out and do an in-person inspection.
