# Appliance Removal in Miami-Dade, FL: Cost, What We Take, and Same-Day Pickup
Appliance removal in Miami-Dade County is one of the most common calls we get at Dade Junk Removal. Old refrigerators, broken washers, outdated stoves, water heaters that finally gave out -- if it plugs in, heats up, or runs on gas, we haul it. Miami homeowners, landlords, and property managers call us when these items are too heavy for the curb and too bulky for the regular trash pickup.
Here is what appliance removal actually costs in Miami-Dade, what we can and cannot take, and how to get it done today.
How Much Does Appliance Removal Cost in Miami-Dade?
Appliance removal pricing in Miami depends on the number of items and whether you are combining them with other junk. Here is what most Miami-Dade customers pay:
| Number of Appliances | Estimated Cost | Notes | |---|---|---| | Single appliance | $75 - $150 | One refrigerator, washer, dryer, or stove | | 2-3 appliances | $150 - $275 | Common for kitchen or laundry upgrades | | 4+ appliances or full kitchen | $275 - $450 | Renovation cleanouts, rental turnovers | | Appliances + other junk (1/2 truck) | $250 - $375 | Mixed load with furniture, boxes, etc. |
We quote a flat rate on-site before we load anything. The number we give you is the number you pay. No fuel surcharges, no surprise line items when the crew finishes.
Heavy or oversized items like commercial refrigerators or old cast-iron stoves may adjust the estimate slightly, but we tell you that before we start.
What Appliances We Remove in Miami-Dade
Dade Junk Removal handles all standard household and commercial appliances across Miami-Dade County:
- Refrigerators and freezers (including side-by-side, French door, and chest freezers)
- Washers and dryers (top-load, front-load, stackable units)
- Stoves and ovens (gas and electric -- we disconnect gas lines only if already capped)
- Dishwashers
- Microwaves (built-in and countertop)
- Water heaters (tank and tankless)
- Window and portable AC units

What We Cannot Take
We do not haul hazardous materials. That includes appliances with Freon that have not been properly decommissioned by a certified technician. However, standard residential refrigerators and AC units with sealed Freon systems are handled through our normal process -- we work with licensed recycling facilities in Miami-Dade that recover refrigerants properly per EPA regulations.
Why Miami-Dade Homeowners Call Us for Appliance Removal
Miami-Dade County does not make appliance disposal easy. Here is why most homeowners and landlords skip the DIY route and call us instead.
Bulk Trash Pickup Is Unreliable
Miami-Dade bulk trash schedules vary by municipality. In unincorporated Miami-Dade, bulk pickup runs on a set schedule, but appliances often sit on the curb for days or weeks. In cities like Hialeah, Doral, and Coral Gables, the rules differ. Some require you to call ahead. Some charge extra. Some won't take certain appliances at all.
We pick up the same day you call -- no waiting for a pickup window that may or may not come.
Appliances Are Heavy and Dangerous to Move Alone
A standard refrigerator weighs 200 to 300 pounds. A washer-dryer stack can top 350 pounds. Moving these down stairs, through narrow hallways, or across tile floors without damaging the home is a two-person job with the right equipment. Our crew handles the lifting, the maneuvering, and the loading. You do not need to touch a thing.
Landlords and Property Managers Need Fast Turnarounds
Rental turnovers in Miami-Dade move fast. A tenant moves out, the old appliances need to go, and the new ones are getting delivered in 48 hours. We work on landlord timelines because we understand how the rental market moves in Miami.
Renovation Debris Piles Up
Kitchen and bathroom remodels generate a wall of old appliances that contractors want out of the way immediately. We coordinate with contractors and homeowners across Miami-Dade to clear appliances as soon as they are disconnected.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to haul away a refrigerator in Miami?
A single refrigerator removal in Miami-Dade typically costs between $75 and $150, depending on its size, location in the home, and whether stairs or tight hallways are involved. We quote the exact price before loading.
Will you disconnect my old appliance?
We remove appliances that are already disconnected. If your appliance is still connected to water, gas, or electrical, we recommend having a licensed plumber or electrician disconnect it first. We can remove it immediately after disconnection.
Can you remove appliances from a second-floor apartment or condo?
Yes. We regularly remove appliances from upper floors, including high-rise condos in Miami Beach, Aventura, and Brickell. We coordinate with building management on elevator access and loading dock scheduling when needed.
Do you take appliances that still work?
Absolutely. Working appliances get donated or resold rather than sent to a recycling facility. If your old fridge or washer still runs, let us know and we will route it to a local partner.
Can I combine appliance removal with other junk?
Yes, and most customers do. If you are clearing out a kitchen or doing a full house cleanout, we will haul the appliances along with furniture, boxes, and other items in the same trip. Mixed loads often save money compared to scheduling separate pickups.
