Appliance Removal in Portland
In an older Portland house the washer, the dryer and the second fridge usually live in the basement — at the bottom of stairs that were never built for a 200-pound appliance. We bring them up. A refrigerator is $164, a washer $133, a dryer $128.
Anything holding refrigerant goes to certified recovery, as federal rules require, and the steel goes to a metal recycler.

Where the Refrigerant Goes
Fridges, freezers, dehumidifiers and air conditioners hold refrigerant that federal rules (40 CFR 82.155) require to be recovered before the unit is scrapped.
- Refrigerant recovered by a certified tech
- Steel and copper recycled
- Nothing dumped whole
That handling is part of why a fridge costs more than a dresser — and it’s already in the price.
Before the Crew Arrives
Unplug it and empty it. Shut off the ice-maker water line if there is one. Gas dryers and ranges, and hard-wired units, should be disconnected by a licensed technician first; our crews carry appliances but don’t do gas or electrical work.
Photograph the appliance where it stands — basement, garage or kitchen — and the price comes right back.

The washer and dryer in a pre-war basement are the classic Portland pickup — heavy, low-ceilinged, and up a steep stair.
Window and Portable ACs
Summer cooling units wear out, and every one of them holds refrigerant that has to be recovered before scrapping.
Remodel Swap-Outs
Kitchen remodels leave a range, a dishwasher and a fridge in the driveway at once. One quote covers the set.
