Why You Should Let Our Hauling Crew Handle It

When you reach out to Mike & Dad's Hauling, you won’t need to:

  • Wrestle a 300-pound appliance through tight doorways or haul it down a staircase

  • Track down a truck, hunt for moving equipment, or convince your buddies to help out

Our team arrives ready to work. We do all the lifting, loading, and hauling while you sit back. From transport to proper disposal, we’ve got every step covered so you get your space back without breaking a sweat or risking an injury.

Moving a Refrigerator Is Tougher Than You Realize

Anyone who’s attempted to relocate a fridge solo understands the struggle. Refrigerators rank among the heaviest, most awkward appliances in any household.

A standard full-size unit tips the scales anywhere from 200 to 400 pounds, and vintage models can weigh even more. Maneuvering something that heavy through hallways, around tight corners, and down staircases is a recipe for trouble. After years of appliance hauling, we’ve witnessed just about all of it.

Homeowners tweak their backs attempting to muscle a fridge out the door. Drywall gets gouged. Hardwood floors end up scratched or damaged. Door trim takes a beating. And sometimes the refrigerator winds up wedged in a narrow space, leaving everyone scratching their heads about how it got installed in the first place.

Environmentally Responsible Fridge Disposal

You can’t simply toss a refrigerator out with your regular garbage. These appliances contain materials that demand special handling. Most refrigerators have refrigerants such as Freon, along with oils, insulating foam, and other substances that pose environmental risks if disposed of improperly.

Washington state regulations require that major household appliances like refrigerators be recycled appropriately. Mike & Dad's Hauling adheres to all local disposal requirements to guarantee your old fridge is handled safely.

We prioritize recycling whenever possible, ensuring usable materials get recovered, and hazardous components stay out of landfills and our local environment.

How to Prepare for Your Refrigerator Pickup

A little prep work helps everything run smoothly on removal day:

  1. Empty the contents: Clear out all food, beverages, and perishable items. Pull out removable shelves, bins, and drawers as well.
  2. Defrost ahead of time: Unplug your fridge and allow it to thaw, particularly if ice has accumulated in the freezer. Keep towels nearby to soak up any melting water.
  3. Clear a path: Check the route from where your refrigerator currently sits to the nearest exit. Move aside any furniture, boxes, or clutter. Relocate rugs or floor mats that could create a tripping hazard.

What Does Fridge Removal Cost?

Pricing for refrigerator hauling varies based on several factors:

  • Refrigerator type: Certain models need additional steps like refrigerant extraction before disposal.
  • Dimensions, age, and weight: Newer refrigerators often use lighter materials, whereas older units can be surprisingly heavy and cumbersome.
  • Your home’s layout: Does removal involve stairs? Narrow hallways? Tight corners? Will we need to temporarily remove any doors or railings?

These details help us provide you with fair, transparent pricing.
