The Junkiez provides same-day appliance removal in Oceanside. 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 Oceanside

Oceanside has one characteristic that shapes the work more than anything else: Camp Pendleton is next door, and military families move constantly. PCS season produces a steady, predictable wave of household clear-outs, furniture disposal and full-home turnovers on short notice, usually tied to a hard report date.

We are used to PCS timelines and can work to a hard move-out date — tell us the date and we will build backwards from it. Downtown and the harbour have tighter parking, particularly in summer. Inland neighbourhoods are conventional suburban access. Green waste goes to composting as a separate load under state organics rules.

### 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 Oceanside

We quote free on site, before anything is loaded, and the number does not change afterwards. Our rates are the same everywhere we work — there is no Oceanside surcharge, and stairs, long carries and disassembly are all included.

We cover all of Oceanside, including South Oceanside, Fire Mountain, downtown Oceanside, Rancho del Oro and the Harbor District.

## 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.
