Our two-person crew straps it to a dolly and walks it down for you, at a flat per-item price with no walk-up surcharge: a fridge is $221 whether it's a parlor floor or a fifth-floor walk-up. Washers, dryers, and ranges get the same treatment.
Old fridges, freezers, and window ACs contain refrigerant, and EPA Section 608 requires a certified handler recover it before disposal — the reason DSNY won't take a fridge from the curb without a certified tag. We handle the recovery and the certification, included in your quote. You disconnect it (unplug, shut the water valve, or cap a gas line via a plumber) and we do the heavy lifting.

Vetted two-person crew straps it to a dolly, walks it down the walk-up, recovers refrigerant where required, and scraps it.
"Fifth-floor walk-up off Avenue B, dead fridge. Two guys strapped it to a dolly and walked it down five flights without a scratch. No walk-up fee, flat $221."
"Landlord swapped the washer. They took the old one down, recovered the refrigerant on the window AC too — all in the price. Same day."
"Couldn't put the fridge on St. Marks without a tag. They handled the EPA part and it was already included. Booked the night before, gone by noon."

Yes. A refrigerator runs 200+ pounds and most East Village buildings are walk-ups with no elevator, so this is a two-person dolly-and-strap carry down the stairs. It's included — no walk-up surcharge. A standard fridge is $221 from any floor.
No — it's already in the price. Refrigerators, freezers, and air conditioners contain refrigerant that EPA Section 608 requires be recovered by a certified handler before disposal, which is also why DSNY won't take a fridge from the curb without a certified tag. We handle it; it's included.
Unplug it, and shut the water valve for a washer or dishwasher. For a gas stove, have the gas line capped by a licensed plumber first. Then our crew does the heavy carry-down.
Often yes, with no same-day surcharge. Upload a photo, get an exact price, and we'll text an arrival window — frequently same-day in the East Village.
