The old fridge, washer or dryer, off your list and gone from the curb. See your exact price, book by 2pm for same-day pickup and get updates along the way.
A replacement is on its way. A broken washer is taking up space. Or the old fridge is the last thing left before a move. Give that appliance its own pickup plan, with a price you can see and a day you can choose.
Your appliance. Your exact price.
Choose the unit you have and see its price online. Add a washer and dryer separately to see the total for both.
A pickup day that fits your plan.
Book by 2pm local time for same-day pickup, where available, or choose a future date at checkout.
Know when it is gone.
Get a confirmation, a text before arrival and pickup photos when it is done. Follow along on your pickup page.
Every appliance has its own catalog choice and price. Add only the items you want taken away, then review the exact total before booking.
Laundry appliances
Front-load and top-load washing machines use the washing machine choice. Add the dryer separately. Contact us about a single combined laundry unit or a stack that still needs separating.
Fridges and freezers
Choose Refrigerator for a full-size household fridge. Mini fridges and separate freezers have their own choices. Contact us first if the model or refrigerant needs checking.
Kitchen appliances
Stoves, dishwashers and microwaves are available in All appliances. Built-in units must already be detached and outside. Send a photo if your appliance does not match a listed choice.

Your place. One easy pickup plan.
A house, a condo or an apartment. Choose an accessible outdoor spot that works for your property. You arrange the move outside; we take it from there.

When & how
Ask your ward office or building’s hauler about the exact model before arranging set-out.
Get it ready
Illinois requires appropriate handling of refrigerants and other regulated appliance components. Do not dismantle cooling lines to prepare an item for collection.
Use a permitted, accessible outdoor spot. Arrange the move out of your home, keep shared access clear and follow your confirmation’s readiness instructions. Check with your building about access or staging limits before booking.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Appliance removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Chicago.
How much does appliance removal cost in Chicago?+
A full-size household refrigerator is $109 as a single item. A washing machine is $109, and a dryer is $109. Other appliances have their own catalog prices. Choose each item to see your exact total before booking; disposal and recycling costs are included in the item price.
Can I get same-day appliance pickup in Chicago?+
Book by 2pm at your pickup address for same-day pickup, where available. Checkout shows the dates you can choose. Your pickup is scheduled for a day rather than an exact arrival appointment, and we text you before arrival. Have the appliance disconnected and ready outside by your pickup readiness time.
Can you take a washing machine and dryer in one pickup?+
Yes. Add one Washing machine and one Dryer so both units are included in the price. They are separate items, even when you bought them as a set. If yours is a single combined unit or the machines still need to be unstacked, contact us before booking to confirm the scope.
Will you disconnect my appliance or carry it out?+
Dropcurb picks up appliances that are already disconnected and accessible outside at ground level. Arrange uninstallation, utility disconnection and indoor carrying before pickup. Use a qualified professional for gas, hardwired or plumbing connections when needed. We handle loading and haul-away from the outdoor pickup spot.
Can I book if the delivery company did not take my old appliance?+
Yes. Dropcurb pickup is separate from buying or installing a replacement, so you can book removal on its own. Select the old appliance, choose a pickup day and arrange for it to be disconnected and accessible outside. If your new delivery is still ahead, confirm the retailer’s haul-away arrangements before booking a separate pickup.
Can I assume Chicago ordinary trash collection will take my refrigerator?
No. Confirm the exact appliance with your ward or building collector before set-out. Illinois requires appropriate handling of regulated components, so do not dismantle refrigerant lines yourself.
Complete, working refrigerators, stoves, washers and dryers may qualify up to ten years old. Microwaves have a five-year limit and dishwashers a three-year limit. Staff approval and current stock still apply.
Can Best Buy remove an appliance when delivering its replacement in Chicago?
Best Buy advertises $49.99 for one eligible major appliance with replacement delivery. Confirm your address and model when ordering. Empty the appliance and arrange disconnection unless the purchased installation covers that work.
Where can I take an approved working appliance donation in Chicago?
ReStore Chicago North receives approved donations at 6040 N. Pulaski Road, Wednesday through Sunday from 11am to 5:30pm. Give staff the type, age and condition before loading it.
