Dehumidifier removal and disposal

Yes. Empty the collection bucket so it isn’t sloshing on the way up the stairs.

Yes. It’s small enough to add to a pickup you already have booked.

Refrigerant must be removed by a certified technician before pickup. Your Loaders do not remove refrigerant and cannot take an appliance that still contains it.

Dehumidifier removal starts at $90 through the LoadUp network. What you actually pay depends on how many appliances are going, how big they are, and whether you choose curbside or in-home pickup. A basement or an upper floor can change the quote too. Either way, the full price is on screen before you confirm.

Yes. Every appliance needs to be disconnected before pickup, including electrical, gas, and plumbing connections. Your Loaders pick up the unit once it is disconnected and ready to move. If you're not sure how to disconnect a specific appliance, a plumber or electrician can help beforehand.

Often, yes. Book before noon and same-day pickup is available across the LoadUp network, though availability may vary by location. Planning ahead instead? You can book for the next day or up to 90 days out.

Yes, and it's the cheaper way to do it. Clearing out a kitchen? Put the refrigerator, dishwasher and stove on one booking instead of three. The service fee is charged once per pickup, so each extra appliance adds only its own price, and you see the new total before you confirm.

Some are, depending on the type. Appliances with refrigerant, like refrigerators, freezers, and AC units, fall under EPA regulations because of the refrigerant, and small electronics-heavy appliances can qualify as e-waste in some municipalities. Ovens, dishwashers and washers generally don't need special handling, but local rules vary, so it's worth a quick check if you're getting rid of one yourself.

Mostly weight, size and how awkward the thing is to carry. A microwave or coffee maker is a quick, light job. A water heater or furnace is heavy and awkward, and sometimes takes extra labor. Appliances with refrigerant or gas connections also tend to price higher, reflecting the added care needed around those components even though the actual disconnection work falls to you or a technician beforehand.

It depends on your lease or purchase agreement. In most rentals, whoever lives in or owns the place now ends up dealing with it, unless the agreement puts that on the previous tenant or seller. It's one of the most common reasons people book a pickup: an appliance that was never theirs, but is now their problem.
