AC Units & Dishwashers
Air Conditioners
When done properly, air conditioning units are recycled by being taken to specialty recycling facilities. At these facilities, several parts of the air conditioner are separated to be utilized in various ways later on. Unfortunately, the process is specialized because the size and refrigerants do not allow for the regular recycling bin to be appropriate. If that is so, then where should you take your air conditioner you ask? You can drop off your unit at any donation center or recycling plant in your local area.
Even better, your air conditioner can be donated. It just has to be in working condition, and donating centers specifically love window units that aren’t too old. The most important factors deciding whether your unit can be donated are if it is functioning well and clean. These are things that you would have to make sure of before attempting to donate your appliance. Another aspect of the process that you must consider, is that it might take time, even hours, to make phone calls and locate the most suitable recycling center for your air conditioner. With all of these things considered, this is why you should utilize a professional service like Premier1 Hauling and Junk Removal for your air conditioner disposal needs.
Dishwashers/Trash Compactors
Something that many homeowners do not think about, and often struggle with, is dishwasher disposal. The simple fact is that appliances like trash compactors and dishwashers are very heavy, oddly bulky, and very difficult to move and maneuver around. What’s more, these appliances need an appropriate and accommodating vehicle to be loaded upon and then transported to wherever the final destination may be.
One thing to consider, however, is that sometimes appliance recycling is actually a more sensible option than trying to donate or sell the machine. Whether your dishwasher or trash compactor is old, not working, or you just don’t want it anymore, multiple parts of the appliance can be recycled and used later for various purposes. The best option for disposing of an appliance you no longer want is to call us, and we will immediately do the hard work for you!
Refrigerators & Freezers
Many people are in the market for a new refrigerator, as the new models have innovative energy-saving technology. This is very exciting, but now arises the problem of what will be done with the old fridge. As you may have assumed, refrigerator disposal can be a very difficult task for anyone without training and expertise.
Refrigerators are easily one of the heaviest appliances a homeowner would need to move, and as a result, they need to be moved carefully as well as properly. Also, refrigerators and freezers must be disposed of correctly. This is due to their containing chemicals that can harm the environment if not properly contained. In most cases, household refrigerators and freezers in production before the year 1995 contain the chemical chlorofluorocarbon in their refrigerant.
Chlorofluorocarbon, also known as CFC, is a substance that can cause damage to the ozone layer if it is allowed to release into the atmosphere. Furthermore, CFC is considered a greenhouse gas that can lend itself to climate change.

Removing an old appliance is never easy, but if the company you bought the new machine from does not offer to remove your old one, then you may be in for an expensive and difficult task.
Possibly the heaviest thing a homeowner may need to be moved is a water heater. To make matters more difficult, once you have the water heater out of your house, then you have to see if any drop-off or recycling center will even take your unwanted appliance.
