Washer and Dryer Removal Temecula — Disconnected, Hauled, Recycled

Pricing is by volume, and a washer and dryer set takes up a small fraction of the truck, so most sets land at the $195 quarter-load minimum. Text a photo to (951) 837-8072 for a same-day ballpark, then the crew hands you a firm written number on arrival before anyone touches a valve. That price includes the disconnect, the carry-out, and certified recycling. There is no separate disposal or recycling fee.

We do it. The crew closes the water supply valves, drains the hoses into a bucket, pulls the drain hose, unplugs a 240V electric dryer, and closes and caps the shutoff on a gas dryer. The only thing we ask is that you not force a valve that looks corroded; if one is already leaking, tell us on the phone and we will plan around it.

Yes. We close the shutoff valve behind the dryer, remove the flexible connector, and cap the stub so the line is safe until your new dryer is installed. If the shutoff is seized or will not fully close, we stop and tell you to call SoCalGas or a plumber before the dryer moves. That happens rarely, and it is always worth the delay.

Yes, including apartment and condo laundry-closet stacks and one-piece laundry centers. Two-piece stacks get unbolted at the stacking kit and carried out as separate machines. One-piece laundry centers and combo units are strapped upright to an appliance dolly and walked out as a unit. Mention the stack when you text the photo so the right equipment is on the truck.

Yes. If the machine still runs, a spin-only cycle beforehand makes the carry lighter and cleaner, but it is not required. If it is dead with a full tub, we drain it in place before it moves. Either way, keep a bucket and an old towel nearby, because the hoses always hold more water than anyone expects.

They go to a California certified appliance recycler, not a general scrap yard. Any mercury switches or PCB capacitors in older units are removed there under the DTSC Certified Appliance Recycler program, and then the steel shell, stainless drum, copper motor windings, and concrete counterweight are separated and recycled. A washer is mostly steel by weight, so almost none of it ends up in a landfill.

CR&R offers Temecula residents a limited number of bulky-item pickups per year and appliances are generally eligible, but you have to schedule it, do the disconnect and the carry to the curb yourself, and wait for the assigned date. If the timing works and you can move the machines, it is a fair option. Most people call us because the new set arrives tomorrow and the old set is still bolted to the gas line.

Often, yes. Same-day is frequently available Monday through Saturday, 7 AM to 7 PM, across Temecula, Murrieta, Menifee, Wildomar, and Lake Elsinore. If a delivery is scheduled, tell us the window and we will aim for the day before or the morning of, so the closet is empty and the gas line is capped when the installers arrive.

Yes. Floor runners go down over tile and hardwood before anything moves, machines ride on a strapped appliance dolly rather than being slid, and corner guards go on any door jamb the unit has to clear. Then we sweep the laundry closet before we leave. Protecting the house is the cheapest part of the job and we treat it that way.

Yes, and it is usually cheaper per item to do the whole appliance suite at once. Refrigerators have their own refrigerant-recovery requirements, which our refrigerator removal page explains, but they ride on the same truck and get quoted on the same written estimate. Ranges, dishwashers, and window AC units are fine too.
