The Junkiez provides same-day appliance removal in La Jolla. Refrigerators, washers, dryers, stoves and water heaters removed and routed to certified appliance recyclers.

Appliances are heavy, awkward and legally fiddly. A full-size refrigerator runs 250–350 pounds, water heaters hold water you do not want on your floor, and anything with a compressor contains refrigerant that is illegal to vent to atmosphere. We handle the lift, the doorway, and the paperwork side of getting it recycled properly.

Appliances in La Jolla

La Jolla is hillside and cliffside housing where the access matters more than the volume. Homes on Mount Soledad have steep switchback driveways, cliff-side properties may be reached by a long stairway from the street, and the Village has narrow streets with heavy parking pressure. Estate clear-outs are a large share of the work here.

We assess the approach before dispatch on Mount Soledad and Muirlands addresses — some driveways genuinely will not take a loaded box truck and we stage at the street instead. Village parking is difficult year-round; early mornings are considerably faster. UCSD nearby drives a student turnover cycle in June and September.

What we take

  • Refrigerators, freezers and wine coolers
  • Washing machines and clothes dryers
  • Stoves, ovens, ranges and cooktops
  • Dishwashers and garbage disposals
  • Water heaters — tank and tankless
  • Air conditioners, window units and mini-splits
  • Microwaves, trash compactors and range hoods
  • Commercial kitchen equipment

Refrigerant is the regulated part

Fridges, freezers and air conditioners contain refrigerant that the EPA requires be recovered by a certified technician before the unit is scrapped. We do not vent it and we do not hand units to scrappers who will. Everything with a sealed system goes to a recycler that does certified refrigerant recovery, which is also why we will not simply leave your old fridge at the kerb.

Getting a price in La Jolla

Frequently asked questions

Will you disconnect the appliance?

We disconnect standard plug-in units and washer water lines. Gas and hardwired connections need a licensed trade first.

Do you take appliances that still work?

Yes — working units are tested and donated where possible. Check your utility's recycling rebate first, though; you may get paid instead.

Can you get a fridge down a narrow staircase?

Yes. We bring appliance dollies and stair-climbing straps, and there is no stair fee.

What customers say

My mother had let things get out of hand and I was dreading the whole process. They came in an unmarked truck, never made a single comment, and asked before removing anything that was not obviously rubbish. Took four days and they never once rushed her.

Verified customer Los Angeles

I called about one old fridge and they told me my utility would collect it free and pay me for it. They talked themselves out of a job. When I needed a full garage cleared two months later I did not call anyone else.

Anh L. Irvine

Six-person spa behind a narrow side gate. Two other companies looked at it and passed. These guys drained it, cut it into sections and had the patio swept by 4pm. The price they quoted on arrival was the price I paid.
