A washing machine is deceptively hard to get rid of. It sits low, weighs well over a hundred pounds, and is usually wedged into a tight laundry space with a hose still attached. When it’s time for the old one to go, moving it out is a job most people would rather not tackle alone.
B&F Junk Removal handles that for you. We remove old, broken, and unwanted washers from homes and businesses, taking care of the weight, the tight spaces, and the haul-away. You point out the machine, and our team carries it out. No straining your back, no wondering how to fit it through the door.
Washers are compact but dense, with most of the weight packed low in the drum and motor. That makes them awkward to lift and tiring to carry, especially over any distance.
The bigger challenge is usually the space around them. Laundry areas tend to be small, with the machine boxed in between a wall, a dryer, and a doorway that barely clears it. There’s often a water hose and drain line to deal with first, and the floor to protect on the way out.
Our team plans the removal around those obstacles. We work the machine out of its spot, guide it through the tight areas, and load it onto the truck. One important note: we handle the lifting and hauling, not utility work. If the washer is still connected, the water and power should be disconnected first, either by you or by a qualified appliance or plumbing professional, so the unit is ready to move safely when we arrive.
We take washers of just about every type and condition, including:
Whatever the make or size, the removal works the same way: we assess the space, move the unit out, and clear it from the property.
Washers come out for all sorts of reasons. Common ones include:
Getting a washer removed is straightforward:
Where the washer sits often decides how involved the job is:
We plan around these challenges ahead of time so the team arrives ready to move the appliance safely without damaging floors, walls, or doorframes.
Washing machine removal comes up for a range of customers and situations:
If there’s more than just the washer to clear, we can fold it into a larger removal.
Once we’ve collected the appliance, the next step depends on its condition and the options available. Where recycling or other appropriate disposal channels are available, the unit is routed accordingly rather than simply discarded.
If you’d like to know more about how a particular machine might be handled, just ask when you schedule, and we’ll tell you what options apply.
Customers call us for washer removal for practical reasons:
This service is part of our wider appliance removal work, so a washer and other appliances can often go in the same visit.
Can you remove a washing machine from a basement?
Yes. Basements are a common spot for washers, and carrying the unit up the stairs is part of the job. Let us know about the stairs and any tight turns when you book so our team comes prepared.
Do I need to disconnect the washing machine before removal?
Yes. The water supply and power should be disconnected before we arrive, handled by you or a qualified professional. We take care of the lifting and hauling, but the unit needs to be ready to move safely.
Can you remove a washing machine from upstairs?
Yes. We regularly bring washers down from upstairs laundry areas. Narrow staircases and doorways are factored into how we plan the removal.
Do you remove broken washing machines?
Yes. Condition doesn’t matter. Whether the machine still runs or stopped working long ago, we remove it the same way.
Can you remove a washing machine from an apartment?
Yes. We handle apartment removals, including shared hallways, stairwells, and tight entries. Mention the building layout when you book so we can plan the route.
How much does washing machine removal cost?
The cost depends on the machine’s location, the access involved, and whether other items are being removed. For an accurate figure, contact us with a few details and we’ll provide a quote for your situation.
Can you remove a washer and dryer together?
Yes. If both are on the way out, we can take them in the same visit. Just let us know so the team plans for both units.
What should I do before the removal team arrives?
Disconnect the water and power, and if you can, clear a path from the machine to the exit. Beyond that, there’s nothing you need to lift or prepare.
Don’t wrestle a heavy washing machine out on your own. Contact B&F Junk Removal to discuss your washing machine removal and request service information or a quote. Tell us where it is, and we’ll handle the lifting, the tight spaces, and the haul-away.
