No waiting on callbacksYour Loaders arrive, carry the refrigerator out, and haul it away. Responsible disposal is handled where local options allow.
No in-person chargesRefrigerator removal is priced based on the size and configuration of the unit, the number of refrigerators being removed, and the pickup location. A standard kitchen fridge, a large French door model, and a standalone garage unit may each fall into different pricing tiers. Access factors like basement stairs or a narrow hallway are accounted for during checkout so your total reflects the actual job.
Before pickup, empty the refrigerator completely, unplug it, and allow any frost to defrost fully. If your unit has an ice maker or water dispenser, disconnect the water supply line before your Loaders arrive, as they do not perform plumbing or electrical work.
LoadUp picks up most residential refrigerator styles and configurations.
Your booking total is transparent from the start. Optional adjustments like stairs access, additional appliances, or a second refrigerator are clearly shown during checkout so your final price is accurate and surprise-free at pickup.
The more you remove, the more you save. Discounts apply in real time as items are added.
Stairs add time and labor, which is factored in upfront to keep pricing fair for everyone.
For items that need to be taken apart, add disassembly to your booking during checkout.
Choose whether eligible items should be donated when possible during checkout.
Your Loaders prioritize responsible disposal for refrigerators, including recycling through local appliance or scrap programs where available. Outcomes vary based on the condition of the unit and what local facilities accept, including any regional requirements around refrigerant-containing appliances.

(678) 884-4738Refrigerator pickup typically starts around $115. Your final price depends on the size and configuration of the unit, whether you choose curbside or in-home pickup, and any access considerations like basement stairs or a narrow hallway. You'll see the exact price before confirming anything, so there are no surprises on pickup day.
Yes, a few steps are required first. Empty the refrigerator completely, unplug it, and let any frost fully defrost so nothing leaks during the move. If your unit has an ice maker or water dispenser, disconnect the water supply line ahead of time, since your Loaders don't perform plumbing or electrical work.
Yes. Your Loaders can carry a refrigerator out of a basement or from an upper floor. Just make sure the path to the exit is clear of obstacles beforehand, including stairwells, hallways, and doorways. Access details like stairs are accounted for during checkout so your price reflects the actual job.
It depends on the pickup type you book. With curbside pickup, you don't need to be home as long as the refrigerator is in an accessible outdoor spot before the scheduled window. With in-home pickup, someone needs to be present to provide access so your Loaders can carry the unit out.
Your Loaders handle disposal based on what's locally available, which may include recycling through local appliance or scrap programs where that option exists. Outcomes vary depending on the unit's condition and local facility requirements, including regional rules around refrigerant-containing appliances. Recycling is prioritized when possible, but a specific outcome can't be guaranteed.
Yes. LoadUp accepts mini fridges, compact refrigerators, standalone freezers, and garage or basement units in addition to standard kitchen refrigerators. If you have more than one appliance, you can add items during checkout. The same prep steps apply regardless of size or style.
Yes, a few situations require action before pickup. Refrigerators still connected to a water line or not unplugged in advance will need to be addressed first, since Loaders don't perform plumbing or electrical work. These aren't permanent exclusions, and once the unit is prepped correctly, pickup can move forward as normal.
Refrigerators contain refrigerant, a chemical coolant that's regulated by the EPA and has to be properly recovered before the unit can go through standard metal recycling. That recovery step requires certified equipment and training, which is why refrigerators need to go through an appliance-specific recycling program rather than a regular scrap yard.
A typical refrigerator contains somewhere around 75 to 150 pounds of steel, depending on its size, along with smaller amounts of copper and aluminum in the coils and wiring. That's part of why appliance recycling programs exist specifically for refrigerators: there's real material value once the refrigerant has been properly removed.
Sometimes, depending on where you live. Some utility companies and manufacturers run appliance recycling rebate programs that pay a modest amount, often in the $15 to $50 range, for turning in a working or non-working fridge, usually tied to a specific drop-off or pickup process. Availability and payout vary a lot by region and program, so it's worth checking with your local utility before assuming removal service and a rebate program are the same thing.
