Find Out How Appliance Removal Services Can Give You Your Home Back

Find Out How Appliance Removal Services Can Give You Your Home Back

In the United States, we live in a world that is full of household appliances. Almost everyone living in this country today has grown up in homes with at least a refrigerator, oven, and stove. And quite likely a clothes washer and dryer, as well.

And some have never lived without a dishwasher, either.

Statistically, the U.S. ranks fairly high among most other nations regarding household appliance ownership. And we have about 130,000,000 households. That’s a lot of refrigerators! In fact, the data shows that 90 percent of American households have at least one refrigerator. That’s about 117 million fridges dotting the landscape.

Then there are about the same number of microwaves, over 100 million washing machines, 83 million dishwashers, and even 50 million or so stand-up freezers.

The point of these numbers is that with millions upon millions of household appliances, all of them eventually stop working and have to be gotten rid of somehow. And almost as often, many of them are replaced with newer units as families upgrade their appliances.

But not all of the old ones manage to get out of the house…

A Tale of Two Aging Appliances, One Busy Husband, and One UnhappyA Tale of Two Aging Appliances, One Busy Husband, and One Unhappy Wife Wife

Deidre was once a proud and well-loved member of the Jones household. As a new appliance, she was a top-of-the-line clothes dryer that made Suzanne Jones incredibly happy. Which made her husband, Bob, happy, too.

Not that Suzanne was some stereotype of a stay-at-home mom and housewife. No. She had just gotten tired of hanging clothes out to dry after their last machine had suddenly given up the ghost. Bob tried to fix it, but it really needed much more than it was worth, so they decided to scrap it and buy a new one.

That took a bit, but after a year of drying clothes 1950s style, they finally managed to bring home a new clothes dryer. Of course, Deidre didn’t have a name then. She was simply a prized, new addition to the home and performed like a champ. For about ten years.

At first, it was just some odd noises. Then it was a generalized lack of energy and output. Deidre was tired and occasionally suffered from “hot flashes,” which alarmed Mrs. Jones when she pulled her clothes out after drying.

Every Good Thing Comes to an End

Then, one day, Deidre just quit. Mr. Jones took a look, poked around on her back, and peeked underneath her frame, but quickly gave up. He assured his wife that he would get it fixed as soon as he could and that maybe they should consider a new one anyway.

So, Diedre was unceremoniously dragged into the garage and shoved in a corner next to Ronnie, the old refrigerator.

Turns out that Bob – Mr. Jones – wasn’t as much of a handyman as he liked to think, and the number of broken appliances was growing. Ronnie got his name from Suzanne – Mrs. Jones – as she worked around him to get to things in the garage. And it wasn’t too long before Suzanne also gave Deidre the dryer her name.

Pretty soon, both Ronnie and Deidre were being used as storage shelves and compartments. Between them, they were taking up quite a bit of space in the already cramped garage. Bob would periodically promise his wife that he would fix them so they could sell them someday.

But someday never came.

Why No Household Needs to Have Unwanted or Unusable Old Appliances

Bob and Suzanne certainly aren’t alone. And, like thousands of other households throughout the greater Washington DC area, their home was being filled with old and unusable appliances.

And what many homeowners like Bob understand is that, unfortunately, disposing of many of these large household appliances is difficult, often dangerous, and sometimes simply not practical for some folks. Simply moving and loading a washing machine, dryer, or side-by-side refrigerator can be a major undertaking for many homeowners.

This is why so many homes are slowly being taken over by large, old appliances that need to go.

So, what are a homeowner’s options when it comes to reliable and affordable appliance removal in the Capital region?

Of course, you can try to do it yourself, as we have already pointed out here. However, that almost always requires having a suitable vehicle like a pickup truck. And not everyone in the DC area owns a truck, of course. And, even if you do have a truck or access to one, you have to have the ability to lift and load your old appliance – not to mention unloading it when you arrive at whatever disposal facility you can find.

A better option would be to have some type of container that you can put your old appliances into along with any other junk and debris you’ve got piled up in your garage, attic, basement, or backyard. Something like a roll-off dumpster rental, for example.

The good news is that Junk King Washington, DC can easily help you with that.

By renting one of our driveway-safe and user-friendly MINI Dumpsters, you can load enough junk to equal the space of more than ten clothes dryers! Up to 12-cubic yards, in fact. And when you’re done, we’ll send a team to pick it up and haul it all away for you.

However, it may be that you simply want to dispose of your own version of Deidre or Ronnie. Perhaps you really have little or no other junk to get rid of. No problem! Junk King Washington DC can take care of that for you.

Our full-service appliance removal is guaranteed to make your old appliance removal chore painless and simple. Once you make the call and our team arrives, you simply point, and we’ll do all the heavy lifting.

Washington DC – Junk Removal Including Appliances

This blog was updated in July of 2022

We mean it when we tell our valued customers that we take just about everything.

That’s why our Washington DC junk removal services include those old appliances that have been gathering dust and taking up space for years. Our clients tell us old broken-down appliances are an eyesore, and we couldn’t agree more.

When you need large junk removed, such as household appliances that no longer work, having a reliable and local junk removal service is a huge benefit. 

This is why we specialize in appliance removal and appliance recycling.

Used Appliances: Not Just an Eyesore, But a Potential Hazard

Old appliances that you still have around and still work are bad enough. They’re likely to be energy hogs, are noisy, and are generally scuffed up, dented, and missing knobs. 

But old appliances that no longer work take up much-needed space and present a real safety hazard.

Safety and environmental concerns work hand-in-hand for us here at Junk King. We want our clients to have all the information they need to make the right decisions about those old fridges and stoves. That’s why we’ve put together a list of just some of the hazards they can create:

 

  • Cords get frayed over time, and these can create an electrical hazard. That old beer fridge in the garage might actually be a safety problem. Keep in mind that we are environmentally friendly, so we can get rid of it for you in a safe and affordable manner.

 

  • Older appliances like stoves and especially refrigerators should always be maintained to prevent dust and debris buildup that could present a hazard. Our Washington DC – Junk Removal team is always ready to move these out of your home or office without damaging anything in the surrounding area. We are professionals that have been in business since 2005. In that time, we’ve learned a thing or two about how to get rid of your junk.

 

  • We often find situations where older appliances are unplugged and otherwise safe but located close to a water source. If someone comes along and plugs one of these older humidifiers or dryers in, injury or death could result.

 

If you take a minute to look at our website, you’ll see that we remove all different types of appliances in a safe and affordable manner.

More Than Simply Junk Removal

The Junk King Washington DC junk removal staff are all insured and properly vetted. They are professionals who know how to remove old appliances out without damaging your walls, floors, and ceiling. And they are experts who are committed to our overriding goal of providing exceptional customer service.

Ready to get started? All you need to do is give us a call and a description of the appliance or appliances that you want taken away. And if you want a free estimate before you commit, that’s never a problem!

The junk removal services we provide in the Washington DC area are geared to your budget and tailored to your convenience.

Not only do we offer expert appliance removal services, but we also take care of furniture removal, e-waste removal, and all types of residential and commercial junk removal.

If you need junk removed – any kind of junk – having a local and reputable junk removal service will make your life far easier.

In addition, having your junk removed by a junk removal company that practices junk recycling is even better.

And that’s exactly one of the distinctions that makes Junk King stand out. We have always made the goal of recycling as much of the junk and waste materials that we pick up as possible.

Have you ever wondered how to reduce your carbon footprint? When you call on Junk King Washington DC, you can take advantage of a few different ways to accomplish that.

By recycling e-waste with our e-waste disposal or with appliance recycling by using our appliance removal service, you can “go green” with Junk King and our environmentally friendly junk removal service!

When Junk and Old Appliance Removal Needs to Be a DIY Job

At Junk King, we also understand that there are situations where it makes more sense for a homeowner, tenant, or business owner to carry out their junk removal task over a period of time.

This could be due to a major house or property cleanout. Maybe you’re in the throes of a renovation or remodeling project. Or perhaps you just want to take your time clearing out the junk, debris, rubbish, and clutter.

We get it!

This is why we know that a great solution for those scenarios is to be able to rent a dumpster.

But wait – no need to grab your phone and start searching for “Dumpster rental near me.” If you want to take care of your own junk pickup and cleaning tasks but need a handy container to “stage” all the junk in while you work, one of our user-friendly and driveway-safe MINI Dumpster is just the thing.

With just one call to our knowledgeable and friendly Junk King customer service representatives, you can book a clean, “Junk King red” roll-off dumpster that holds up to 12 cubic yards of debris but only takes up the driveway space of a full-sized pickup truck.

Our highly trained delivery team will come to drop off the MINI Dumpster rental at your home or place of work, and after three days, they’ll return to load it up and take it away – along with all your piles of junk and rubbish.

The bottom line is that sometimes it’s far more efficient and cost-effective to load your own junk than to have a team of expert junk haulers come to pick up junk and haul junk away.

And one of the best parts is that we still sort through everything you put in your rental dumpster and recycle as much as possible before disposing of the rest!
