Do you still have some old appliances taking up space at home that you’ve been meaning to get rid of for a while now? It’s not that you don’t want to do it, it’s just that, well, it’s going to be a rough chore and after last year and all that went on, it wasn’t high on the priority list.
That’s okay. At Junk King San Diego Downtown, we get it.
The good news is that we can take care of appliance disposal. As a locally owned and operated junk removal business, we are also part of a company that is nationally recognized for being Number One in our industry for service.
And at Junk King San Diego Downtown, we have an expert team of appliance disposal professionals ready to serve you in the downtown San Diego area. This includes communities such as Coronado, National City, Chula Vista, and Imperial Beach.
Why Appliance Disposal is a “Heavy” Job
If you’re like most folks with a home, you’ve probably got some old appliances stored in your garage, or worse, your basement. And you’ve probably forgotten how hard it was to get it there.
Maybe it’s that old refrigerator that you held onto after upgrading to a newer model and it’s still in your garage. You’ve been meaning to get rid of it, but it hasn’t been top of mind for you, especially after last year! And, well, time’s gone by and it’s still there.
While selling or donating a working appliance is fairly easy, having to move, lift, and haul away a large appliance is not only difficult, but it can also be dangerous. And this is especially true for people who live alone or are unable to manage something that large and heavy.
And, without a large truck and some strong help, that’s a problem because appliances can be heavy.
For example, an average large-capacity washing machine can weigh over 220 pounds. And even a typical clothes dryer weighs between 150-200 pounds. What about that relatively small built-in microwave. Don’t be fooled! That “small” appliance might weigh up to 100 pounds or more.
And we won’t even talk about having to remove large refrigerators!
When you consider that most appliances weigh between 150 to 250 pounds, you realize that removing and disposing of these massive machines really shouldn’t be approached as a do-it-yourself project.

And it doesn’t matter whether you are a homeowner, condominium dweller, a renter with old appliances to get rid of – or even a business or some other type of organization. If you have old or non-working appliances, your best bet is to call Junk King San Diego Downtown.
Keep in mind, too, that we can pick up and dispose of a wide variety of appliances such as:

Junk King San Diego Downtown has two processes for disposing of your old or unwanted appliances.
If your appliance still works and is in good condition, our junk removal team will take it to a local charity where our franchise owners donate them. Please note, all appliances must be already disconnected in order for us to haul them away.
The other process is recycling.
Appliance Disposal the Green Way
Junk King is the greenest junk removal service in North America and Junk King San Diego Downtown is proud to be part of the mission.
It was Junk King that pioneered recycling-based junk removal when the company started back in 2005 and they have upheld that mission ever since. And this is good news for your old appliances since they are almost 100 percent recyclable.
In fact, at Junk King San Diego Downtown, each load we bring in is sorted for metals, glass, plastics, and electronics in our recycling warehouses, which is what most household appliances are made of.
Why recycle large appliances?
According to the website earth911.com,
- •Steel (the most recycled material in the U.S.) makes up 75 percent of the average appliance, and home appliances account for 10 percent of steel recycled in the U.S. each year.
- •Refrigerators and air conditioners use fluorocarbons to chill air, and chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) are a leading contributor to ozone depletion. CFCs are released from a trashed refrigerator but will be safely processed by a recycler.
- •Many utility companies will provide you with a credit to buy a new appliance and recycle the old one, not to mention the money you’ll save on your monthly bill.
Being green and eco-friendly is a critical component of our junk removal process because, at Junk King San Diego Downtown, we are committed to keeping as much junk as possible out of landfills.
In fact, Junk King’s environmentally friendly corporate mission is to ensure that as much of the junk we pick up as possible is recycled or donated. And we are the only national company operating with a goal of recycling 60 percent or more of every junk load we pick up.
