Do you unhook the washer or dryer before taking it?

Yes. Our crews bring disconnect kits and handle the water shutoff, hose removal, and dryer vent reconnection if you want to keep the space ready for a new unit.

Can you take a TV that doesn't turn on?

Absolutely — in fact, dead TVs are among our most-common e-waste pickups. They go to a certified recycler where the glass, metals, and circuit boards are separated and processed responsibly.

What about the refrigerant in my old fridge?

If the unit still has refrigerant and the compressor is intact, we handle removal under EPA-compliant protocols at the recycler's facility. Visibly leaking units need to see a certified recovery tech first — we can refer one.

Do you wipe hard drives before recycling?

On request, yes — we physically destroy drives on-site and provide a written attestation. For enterprise cleanouts, our commercial team can coordinate chain-of-custody documentation.

Printers, scanners, fax machines, copiers
Routers, modems, servers, UPS battery backups

Small appliances: toasters, blenders, coffee makers, vacuums

What we don't take

Honest list — a few things are either unsafe, regulated, or need a specialist.

Leaking refrigerators where refrigerant has visibly escaped — this requires an EPA-certified recovery service first
Damaged lithium-ion batteries (puffed, punctured, or hot) — these are a fire risk in a truck
Industrial-scale equipment over 800 lbs without a prior site visit

How pricing works

Appliance and e-waste pricing includes the recycling fee — no surprise surcharges at the curb.
Single-item fridge or TV pickups have a standard minimum; stackable items bring the per-item cost down.
We provide a data-wipe attestation for servers and drives if requested (we physically destroy the drive).

Free, firm on-site quotes — no dollar surprises

Every job gets a free, firm on-site quote before any lifting happens. We walk through the items with you, you see the truck, you get one total number — paid once the work is done. No hidden minimums, no hourly meters, no upcharges for stairs or heavy items.

Pricing is volume-based (by quarter-, half-, or full-truckload), which keeps costs predictable on bigger jobs and honest on small ones.

Typical turnaround

Most single-item appliance pickups are available the next business day, often same-day in the 20164/20165/20166 Sterling core. We bring appliance dollies and disconnect kits for plumbed units — no need to move it outside yourself.

Why Junk Snap for this service

Certified e-waste recycling partners — nothing ends up in a foreign landfill.
We unhook plumbed appliances (washers, dishwashers, ice-maker fridges) ourselves.
EPA-aware: we respect refrigerant recovery rules and route leaking units properly.
Drive destruction available for servers and old workstations.

What jobs look like in the field

Most appliance calls are one-to-three items: a fridge replacement where the old unit goes out to the curb, a washer-dryer swap during a laundry-room remodel, a kitchen overhaul where the range and dishwasher need to disappear. E-waste calls tend to stack: a basement purge of old computers, broken monitors, a dead printer, and a milk crate of tangled cables all at once. Business e-waste is regular volume — a small office retiring a dozen workstations or swapping out its server room during an IT refresh. Whatever the scope, we bring the dollies, the refrigerant-safe process for fridges, and the right paperwork for any drive or asset disposal your records need to track.
