Refrigerator Removal FAQs
How do I get rid of my old fridge?
You have four main options:
- Schedule a professional refrigerator removal service
- Take it to a local recycling center
- Arrange a bulk pickup with your city
- Sell or scrap it if it still has value
For most people, hiring a removal service is the fastest and safest option, especially for large or heavy units.
How to dispose of a large fridge?
Large refrigerators must be recycled properly because they contain refrigerant, oils, and foam insulation that can harm the environment. A licensed junk removal company will:
- Disconnect and haul the fridge
- Transport it safely
- Ensure EPA-compliant recycling
Never dump a fridge or leave it curbside without approval.
How to remove a heavy refrigerator?
To safely remove a refrigerator:
- Empty all contents
- Unplug it and secure the doors
- Use a dolly and lifting straps
- Have at least two people
Professional haulers have the equipment and experience to remove heavy fridges without damaging floors, walls, or stairs.
How much should I charge to remove a refrigerator?
If you offer refrigerator removal as a service, typical pricing ranges from $75 to $150, depending on:
- Size of the fridge
- Stairs or difficult access
- Distance to recycling facilities
- Local disposal fees
Built-in or commercial units often cost more.

Junk Masterz usually charges $120 to $180 for refrigerator removal, depending on location, size, and access. Prices may be higher for units with stairs or tight spaces.
Will the scrap man take a fridge?
Some scrap collectors will take refrigerators, but many will not due to refrigerant regulations. If they do accept it, they may require:
- Proof refrigerant was removed
- Easy ground-level access
Availability varies by area.
Does anyone buy broken fridges?
Yes, in some cases:
- Appliance repair shops may buy them for parts
- Scrap dealers may buy them for metal
- Refurbishers may take newer models
Older or severely damaged units usually have little resale value.
Are broken refrigerators worth anything?
Broken refrigerators typically have $10 to $50 in scrap value, depending on size and metal prices. However, refrigerant removal costs often outweigh the payout.
What should you throw out of a broken fridge?
Before disposal, remove:
- All food and liquids
- Shelves and drawers if reusable
- Loose parts
Do not attempt to remove refrigerant or internal components yourself.
What to do when you have a broken fridge?

Fast removal prevents safety hazards and frees up space.
