A dead refrigerator can’t just go to the dump in Florida — state law keeps white goods out of landfills, and federal rules require the refrigerant to be recovered first. We carry it out of the kitchen and handle both. A standard fridge is $164, a washer $133.

“Had a plan AND morning confirmation with [another junk remover] and they canceled last minute, an hour before. I was in a bind, and I called & texted the folks at JunkRabbit. They were fast, courteous and available on short notice.”

The Rules Behind the Price

  • Florida bans white goods from landfills
  • Refrigerant must be recovered before scrapping
  • Steel and copper go to metal recyclers
  • Units are unplugged and emptied by you

Gas lines and hard-wired units should be disconnected by a licensed tech beforehand; our crews carry, they don’t install.

City Pickup and Appliances

Tampa’s SWEEP

Appliances are on SWEEP’s accepted list, so a City of Tampa resident can include the old washer in the annual curb pile. A refrigerator that quits in the middle of summer usually can’t wait for that Sunday.

St. Pete’s Special Pickup

Appliances count toward St. Petersburg’s free three-cubic-yard special pickup, collected from wherever your trash goes. The appliance has to be in the alley or at the curb first.

Outside those two cities, appliance rules depend on your county or municipal hauler. Ours don’t: the crew comes into the kitchen, laundry room or garage and takes it from there.

Appliance Removal FAQs

How much does it cost to remove a refrigerator in Tampa?

A standard refrigerator is $164; a side-by-side or French-door model is $183. Refrigerant recovery is included.

Why can’t a fridge go straight to the landfill?

Florida law bars white goods such as refrigerators, washers and water heaters from landfills, and federal rules require refrigerant recovery before disposal. That’s why they go to recyclers.

Do you take a washer and dryer as a pair?

Yes — washer $133, dryer $128, on one quote. A stacked combo unit is $189.

Can you haul an old water heater?

Yes. A tank unit is $131 and a tankless one $90; have it drained and disconnected first.

Do you remove outdoor AC condensers?

Yes. After your HVAC contractor swaps the system, the old condenser is $115, refrigerant recovered.

Can you take appliances that flooded?

Yes. Flood-damaged washers, dryers and fridges go to the same metal recyclers, and they can share a load with other storm debris.

Do I need to disconnect the appliance?

Unplug it and empty it. Shut off the water line to an ice maker, and have gas or hard-wired units disconnected by a licensed technician.
