Appliance Removal in Los Angeles — Hauled Out, Recycled, and Disposed of Legally

We do. Dump Happy hauls fridges across Los Angeles — working or dead, from the kitchen, garage, or upstairs — and routes them to certified refrigerant recovery and metal recycling, starting at $289. City pickup means booking ahead, waiting for your collection day, and moving a 250-pound appliance to the curb yourself; stores usually only take one when you buy a new one. We just take it.

Book us. TVs are hazardous e-waste in California and can't go in the trash, and a TV left on the curb without a properly booked city pickup is illegal dumping. We unmount it, carry it out, and send it to a certified e-waste recycler, starting at $289 — flat-screens, tube TVs, and broken screens included.

Not as ordinary trash. Federal law (Clean Air Act Section 608) requires the refrigerant to be recovered by a certified technician before a fridge, freezer, or AC unit is scrapped, and California adds its own enforcement through CARB. Disposal facilities turn away refrigerant units that aren't recovered and tagged. We route them the legal way.

Yes — including the dead one in the garage. We remove it from wherever it sits, and refrigerant-containing units go to certified recovery before recycling, so you're covered on the compliance side without lifting a finger or making a second call.

Empty the appliance and, for fridges and freezers, defrost it if you can and wipe out standing water. Unplug it ahead of time. If it's plumbed or hard-wired — a dishwasher, some water heaters — let us know so we bring the right tools to disconnect it safely.

Yes. We remove appliances from wherever they sit — upstairs units, stacked laundry closets, basements, garages, and side yards. Our crew handles the disconnection, the stairs, and the doorways, and we protect your floors on the way out.

Yes — washers, dryers, dishwashers, stoves, water heaters, and AC units. These are heavy and often in tight laundry closets or garages; our crew handles the disconnection and the lift so you avoid the strain and the floor damage.

Refrigerant is recovered from cooling units by certified handlers; then steel, copper, and aluminum are sent into the metal-recycling stream — a single fridge holds well over a hundred pounds of recoverable steel. Very little of a properly processed appliance ends up in a landfill.

By truck volume, like the rest of our service. A single appliance is a single-item pickup; a kitchen's worth or an appliance-heavy clear-out moves up the load tiers. You get a firm quote before we start — no per-pound surprises.
